Use THESE TRICKS to get cheap jewels for your build! 

You know that 'trade for these items' in PoB calculates all of these weightings for you automatically right?

​@@jchampagne2yeah but it massively weights DMG say you want a bit more (reservation, life particular stats or Res for some reason) it becomes a bit of a pain.

Ah I've always avoid weighting because seemed too complicated to work out but that's a good tip

@@Al_Does_Stuff you can add anything you need on the item or change the weighting any time

@@jchampagne2 lol, well now I know :D

It so much easier to find anything that fit your build*

I'm not sure, but I suspect you might find it in the recent third-party tools video by Ziz. There is a chrome addon that does this iirc.

every build uses jewels? like 99% of builds want atleast 1 cluster jewel setup, and a legion jewel, and a watchers eye. Thats 6 jewels minimum (3 clusters, 1 watchers eye, 1 for the second med cluster, 1 legion) for every build in the game. And every build picks up all 2 point jewels as they are more point efficient than normal nodes on the tree. So 7-8 jewels is pretty standard for a build. Go to PoE ninja and look at any random build at the top levels, all of them have 6+ jewels without fail. There is no such thing as a build without jewels, thats just playing a weaker version of a build. Like playing with a maximum of a 4 link and saying "i prefer builds without 6L, 6L are terrible, I can never link more than 4 sockets".

Is ED Contagion a good build for heist? It's what I intend to run next league and am considering which mechanics I want to spec into. Heist is pretty fun

@@Junotekh god no, you want like any ranger ascendancy to move fast. build doesnt even matter, the build is movement speed. Heist is literality "how fast can i run from point A to B". As for casual heisting, especially in a ssf scenario where you probably want to passively kill mobs for gem xp/character xp and other random drops, stuff like rf or cold dot are decent and those builds are strong outside of heist too. But for trade league id only play move speed build if spamming heist.

Because it's worth a lot more

Next to the stat you can set "Min" and "Max". If you fill the Min case with the minimum roll of your T1 mod, you'll only get T1 mods, as other tiers of the same mod won't reach the minimum value you just set. Exemple : Tier 1 life on body armor rolls from 120 to 129. Select +# to maximum life and type 120 in the Min case to only get tier 1 max life mods. Remember to check if your target item can roll T1 mods : boots can only roll 80 to 89 life, ring can only reach 70 to 79 etc...

It's too random of a thing to target farm, since every jewel is basically a chaos spam and that's it. If you're going to do SSF playthroughs, then that usually means you have at least a Master's Degree in PoE and you know what you need to make shit work.

@@Neriehem Except the shit loot and rng is because of PoEs fascination of ruining the ARPG genre with trading being the defacto way to progress. Imagine a game where you get a reasonable amount of crafting mats for your time, because thats what they are, not fucking currency to chuck on some gear, while you look for better gear, I think they used to call those games ARPG's

ARNG

@@Neriehem While I agree that SSF is hard, Jewels are not particularly complicated. Heist often generates jewels with only a guaranteed life mod which you can then augment and regal. And if I need a new jewel quickly, I usually spam Harvest Reforge Life or I go with two fossils (pristine + whatever creates relevant damage mods for my build). Sure, you won't get a 4-stat one. But it is really easy to bank a bunch of jewels with Maximum Life and one relevant damage stat. And if you try often enough, you will eventually hit life and 2 damage stats. Abyss Jewels are also extremely powerful with the Atlas tree. Getting 5 or 6 mods gives you so many chances to hit what you actually need that you will find something good sooner or later. If Jewels are what's holding you back from SSF, don't let them discourage you. They are not as bad as you may think.

ok here's your strat to farm jewels abyss jewels: allocate nodes on tree and farm abysses normal jewels: spam heist for fractured mods on jewel, chaos spam jewel until good mods alternative: throw all your vaal orbs at your t16 maps and get vaal temples budget: pickup jewel off ground and spam chaos orbs on it video over thanks for watching Unless you are SSF, you don't farm for specific items in a trade league. You farm to have fun, doing content you enjoy, and that gives you the currency to buy what you want. The best part about PoE is that almost every farming method within the same investment brackets is equally profitable, so you focus on what you enjoy, nothing else. If you enjoy farming jewels then go crazy because you technically can do that. It would fucking suck if you were forced to farm specific content to get items. If the best way to get jewels was to farm them, not trade, then everyone would farm them because they would need to be super expensive for it to be more efficient to farm them rather than trade. But in that case, the jewels drop in price because everyone is farming, the economy balances out which is why everything is equally profitable. This is the result of an unrestricted trade system. If we had bound items like other MMOs or aRPGs do then yeah you'd be forced to farm in specific areas, and that sucks. I wanna farm what I want to, and I want to make meaningful progression in my character nomatter where I farm. Honestly kinda sick of every multiplayer game having some extreme tax on item trading, or bound items after trade, or some items being untradable, just some bullshit gating that is usually setup as intentional friction to make players spend real money to bypass them.
