EASIEST Ways of Getting OFF-COLORS in Path of Exile!

[@Zizaran]

If you do decide to do it the regular way, there's a very handy site to calculate the best method to use chromatics on your items. siveran.github.io/calc.html How to use: 1) Put the number of sockets you have on your item (from 1-6); 2) Put your item's requirement stats. For example, Vaal Regalia has 194 INT requirement, so you put that value into the int box; 3) Pick the desired socket colors you want. For example, on my 6 Socket Vaal Regalia, I want 5 Red, 1 Green, I put those numbers in their corresponding boxes. Click Calculate! ..and it says I need 111 627 chromatics on average.... sheesh I better farm up

[@spearki]

thx maybe i can finally fit the socket color on my tr with quilrain XD

[@JohnCena9393]

Omg this is actually insane timing. Im struggling with my dex based bow atm to get 3 red and 1 blue and this helped a ton! Thanks ziz!

[@stormkern]

This trick saved me dude, I dropped a Brass Dome but needed many blue sockets and I got it right because of this. Thank you!

[@rellify3]

I've played since open beta I've never actually understood what people meant by "Vorici" method with the jewelers, thank you for explaining it!

[@yesnooo9029]

idk if ziz saw my comment on his "what do you want to see" vid but im liking these simplified craft videos and hope they continue to get progressively further down the craft line

[@Joopzor89]

Perfect explaining thank you again Zizaran. You do talk very very fast so I would recommend people to watch at 0.75 speed if they are new and want to keep up.

[@Tirreg88]

i played a few days now and started watching guides. it feels like each time i watch a guide i see a completely new system/screen or skilltree

[@vizzzzz86]

Been struggling for a while to get the right sockets on my boots. It’s dex/int and couldn’t get 3b and 1r on it after spending 600+ chromatics. 2mins after this video and I had my sockets. I’m new to POE so still figuring things out. Thanks for this @ziz

[@LastRightsTV]

The complexity of Betrayal is so bad lol. 99% of my friends stare at be blank when I try to explain it and they just get frustrated and never use it lol.

[@anondescript1134]

Not the complexity, but the way the game (doesnt) explain it at all, its insanely vague about how it really works.

[@bennym1956]

LIke if I asked what's Betrayal ???

[@GrandMagusDK]

So ... I just now got that the different factions of Betrayal are also the different ways we enounter them. Ambush=Intervention, Base=Fortification, Convoy=Transportation or Lab=Research. I never put that together until now, I always assumed it was random which faction it would let me move them to...

[@trixon2118]

I... I don't get how you didn't get it earlier... Seems logical

[@Murks33]

Mate...

[@anondescript1134]

No worries, I have a lot of time played, and never connected those dots either as I simply didnt think about it.

[@napsterxxl]

Thanks for those guides Ziz. Theyre very clear and easy to understand.

[@LordNerfherder]

I love these random knowledge videos for POE. While I knew this, many have added tidbits of knowledge to by POE DB. Because as anyone will know. After spending 2000 hours in this game, there are still corners I havn't explored and combinations of crafting or skill systems/passive systems we havn't combined and practiced.

[@ArtoriasStark]

Thank you very much. This tutorial helped me off colour an item in this moment.

[@MrStanley85]

to not clutter your inv too much you can pick only 1x3 items with red / blue / green sockets and vendor for one chrome each, during mapping I try to pick them up here and then

[@Trisma]

Ahh the old Vorici calculator, new players won't know about this.

[@bennym1956]

I agree...WTH is it !!!

[@abhidey646]

This showed up as "EASIEST Ways of Getting OFF-" on my recommended. 😳

[@AtlasGcx]

The easiest way to get off color is using tainted chromatic orbs because they simply don’t care about base stats of an item so even for a 200dex bow you can roll 6R with at most 3^6=729 orbs. Needs a corrupted item though but Eid you already plan to taunted fusing it then why not :D

[@AtlasGcx]

And it goes without saying that 6R is the most extreme case 😂 normally I would think within 10 orbs you will get 1 full off color

[@_unknown_guy]

@@AtlasGcx I bought Lightning Coil with good corruptions, it's dex/str, wanted 5B+ 1B or 1R, bought like 300 tainted as a start, 3rd fusing got me 6B. Guess sometimes lucky

[@LastRightsTV]

So funny been doing this for days with tons of jewelers and still haven't gotten the color i want on the final socket lol. He makes it look so easy.

[@Phegan]

Thanks for making videos like this, they are super helpful!

[@nnamsuah]

thank you so much my dude

[@bennym1956]

Huh ???? What ??? I just don't have the crafting items to do all that !! lol good vid and explanation...

[@DeepBass75]

Kind of new to PoE and I'm curious whether adding crafted main stat on the item before rolling the sockets would influence colours ?

[@Chemino]

Hey ziz I never understood anything to jun and veil and investigation Can you do something to showcase it ?

[@realmothbuterfli]

Hey ziz, any way to specifically target certain colors on a specific socket ? IE: I have a 5 link 6 socket chest and I want a blue on the LAST unlinked socket, any way to find out the odds of this specific outcome ?

[@ilyandilymusic]

Harvest “change one color to another” would be your best bet. Or go down to 4 sockets and jewelers your way back.

[@LawlessGFX]

Is this the "Dark Souls" of isometric games???

[@hucklebk]

It's worse, honestly the systems are so convoluted and really are not explained you need a PhD in maths to be able to work out the passive system too. It's a fun game but this shit could really do with streamlining.

[@Lyo_0]

omg tysm that save me on my 6 link i

[@ReverseFlash86]

Crusible must be bad if this is what we get after bligt. that was good for afk tho.

[@MrArbaras]

Wish a six socket 2/2/2 would vendor for like 25 chroms or something

[@SensorEI]

Очень помог!

[@Koraksis]

I dont understand how vorici gives you offcolors. Is there a way to interact with him? Or is he just dropping the veiled recepe?

[@xMrPichux]

You run the final safehouse/mastermind and after defeating the final boss (Caterina), then there will be a crafting bench located in the safehouse and you can slam 1-6 white sockets on a body armour but only if you have defeated caterina before otherwise it will be 1-5 white sockets

[@zandiskoul]

"Easiest way of getting off; colors in Path of Exile." Some grammatical typos really change the framing.

[@BuddzBunnyHD]

Taken me 2 days now to try to get 4 blues on str/dex 6 Link Base. I really dont want to relink it

[@zeebpc]

did they nerf this? went two>three sockets over and over its always the same color

[@BitterJane]

Why show the 6link at the start when they has literally no use on a 6link..

[@chrislognshot]

what about 6 link item where you need 2 of each color

[@theMagos]

Craft 2+2 offcolors and hope the last 2 will be natural color?

[@nguyenlu7204]

what about coppruter item

[@TheBigG0613]

Well I thought I wanted to try to PoE 😂

[@UschiGlas-nl9qq]

00:05 this is excactly me ... but i kept doing it with all my currency...then i unistalled the game

[@jarrydstirton5099]

This popped up in my notifications as "easiest way to get off" I was very disappointed to discover that this was just an informative video and not the announcement of Zizafans

[@AliNCaraman]

Because of that i dont like path of exile it hard to make what colours u need.

[@Hallowzen]

duhhh

[@khaosterminator]

man, i cant keep up with this crap any more. between the systems that i can understand and the xp lose and not being able to make any head way. screw poe

[@IIMado]

This! Wish there was an easier way to do Poe tbh.

[@hucklebk]

Yeah I'm enjoying the campaign but not sure how long I will last into end game, I work 80 hours a week I don't have time to study 15 different systems that are super convoluted

[@Asghaad]

@@hucklebk complexity wouldn be a problem IF the rewards matched the complexity ... problem is its designed in a way that you have to do these things over and over and over to either get small amount of currency to MAYBE get a result you want or for guaranteed results it needs a LOT of that currency ... in other words insanely huge time sink ... in simples most basic terms to craf 6 sockets into an item - the most basic of basics of endgame requirements - you need 350 jewelers orbs you can get 7 jewelers from any six socket item that means you have to get 50 six socketed items to drop to be able to craft in 6 sockets lets say you are lucky and drop one 6 socket item per 2 basic early maps you run with your barebones char that just finished campaign and struggels to keep alive against anything due to being slapped by the massive -60% resits as a "reward" that would come out as 50*2*whatever time you need to finish a T1-5 map, lets say a 15 minutes because your char cant do it any faster and dies a lot to a randome oneshots at that point thats (100*15)/60= 25 HOURS of mindless grind to just scrounge enough jewelers to make one six sockets congratulations, you get basic item with six sockets ... that are not linked and are wrong colors ... as everything in PoE these systems are tuned for people running cookie cutter builds that can clear a map in 30 seconds and completely forgetting that some of us just want to play a damn game not stare at spreadsheets and follow pre determined grind pathways that are basically made for bots ... you can hear it in this very video "oh i get THOUSANDS of jewelers" - sure you do bud, running your perfect op build running max tier maps with huge multipliers on drops ...

Thanks!! 👍
