Path of Exile 3.24: Day 2 Update for SSF HC League Start with Cast on Crit DD

Playing SSF HC this league has been a wild ride. I'm back to solo, and let me tell you, it's been a struggle. Five hours to 5-link my chest, and don't get me started on heists - couldn't disarm traps to save my life. But my build is coming along, despite the lack of chaos. Gonna keep pushing maps and chasing that top spot. The grind never stops! 💪🗺️🔥

Sword

Here's a look at the current sword. While the stats are decent, the attack speed and crit chance are not great. It has an Elreon mod for early suppression, with crafted accuracy.

Shield

This shield has provided a significant boost for over 50 levels. It offers life, Fizz reduction, and resistance, making it a valuable asset for the character's survival.

Chest and Crafts

The chest took a considerable amount of time to five-link, as the Syndicate farming efforts were less fruitful than expected. The socket craft that was initially planned for Leo had been relocated to Fichl in the transportation syndicate, which led to a change in strategy for obtaining the desired craft.

Heist Frustrations

Frustrations in Heist activities were encountered during the character's journey. Issues with the Heist mechanics and unexpected changes led to challenges in obtaining the required crafts and items.

Gloves

The gloves primarily offer life, chaos resistance, and movement speed, along with additional resistance and flask utility. The quest for optimal flask rolls had its fair share of trials with mixed success.

Expeditions and Syndicate Focus

The character's focus on expeditions and syndicate activities has shifted according to the evolving needs of the build. Transitioning from Syndicate missions to prioritizing expeditions for currency accumulation has become a primary goal.
