CRAFTING GUIDE

GLOVES
	1. Purchase a pair of Gloves off the trade site that have the Implicit 20% chance to Poison on Hit.
	2. Use an Exceptional Eldritch Ember to add a random T4 Exarch Modifier.
	3. Orb of Scouring the Gloves and Orb of Transmutation to make them Magic. Purchase Craicic Chimerals and use the Imprint Beastcraft to "save" a copy of them.
	4. Use an Orb of Conflict to have a 50% chance to upgrade you Poison chance.
	5. If it downgraded, use another Orb of Conflict. If it downgrades again, then use your Imprint.
	6. Continue this process of upgrade/downgrade until you hit 25% chance to Poison on Hit. Then create another Imprint, making sure to keep track of which is which and deleting the old 20% one.
	7. Once you have 25% chance to Poison on Hit Imprinted use another Exceptional Eldritch Ember, and Orb of Conflict to have a chance at 30%. If it downgrades, use another Orb of Conflict. 2 Downgrades in a row means you restart step 6 again.
	8. Once you finally have 30% chance to Poison on Hit, use Grand Eldritch Ember until you land one of the non-pinnacle Chaos Damage over time Multiplier mods.'
	9. Craft Life


BELT
	1. Purchase an item level 86 Stygian Vise base
	2. Use an Orb of Scouring and Fertile Catalyst on it.
	3. Purchase a Hunter's Exalted Orb and slam it onto the belt.
	4. Buy ~46 Pristine Fossils and Resonators for T2 flat Life, or 92 Pristine Fossil and Resonators for T1 flat Life.
	5. Use these fossils until you obtain T1 flat Life, and T1 % increased Maximum Life. You can get unlucky here, but if it's getting bad you can stop at T2 flat Life, and T1 % increased Maximum Life.
	6. Once you get good Life rolls, you?re done. However, you can increase the value of your Belt if you have an open Prefix. Craft Prefixes Cannot be Changed and Harvest Reforge Chaos for #% increased Chaos Damage.
	7. Now you have full prefixes (3). If your suffixes are good, you can sell it or use it. If they're full then Reforge Keeping Prefixes until you can craft a Suffix. 
			Craft Prefixes Cannot be Changed and Reforge Chaos for 20%+ chaos resistance. If you get awful Chaos Resistance or other bad suffixes, re-do step 6.
	8. You have 3 good prefixes, and 20%+ Chaos Resistance. Craft Prefixes Cannot be Changed and grind out an T3 Aisling in research. Do your Catarina fight to make Aisling T4, or get a T4 Aisling from someone else.
			 Aisling will replace a random modifier with a Veiled mod. We want her to replace our craft, and not Chaos Resistance, so if she removes Chaos Resistance go back to step 6.
			 Once she removes Prefixes Cannot be Changed, craft a Resistance to block all resistances from being Unveiled, and Unveil Strength + Intelligence. Prioritize Strength if given the choice.
	9. Once you have Chaos Resistance and the Veiled mod, all you do now is craft a Resistance. Now you should have 3 amazing Prefixes, and 3 decent Suffixes for a full 6 mod rare belt!


Ring 1 
	1. Purchase a single Influence Shaper Ring (with a resistance implicit on one of the two rings) with the ONLY Influence mod being +14/15 Life gained for each Enemy hit by your Spells. (No other "Of the Shaping" or "Shaper's")

	3. Purchase an Awakener's Orb and click first on the ring that is the bad base, and second on the ring with the good base. 
		You're Copying the mods on the first, and pasting them onto the second, with the second Rings base being the one that's kept.
