Another thing that new players dont have in mind with the resistance changing harvest craft, is that when you are searching for an item to buy on trade, you dont have to restrict the search for the specific res that you need, you can search for any res and just change it, you will get way more search results that way
I started playing PoE for the first time 3 weeks ago and I need to watch your crafting crash course over and over again to actually understand these mechanics. Thank you very much for putting the effort in making these videos. You deserve more likes on this video.
Affliction League is my 3rd league and I have always fumbled my way through crafting or followed a step by step guide. Even after your first video, it just didn't click in my head. But man, THIS video really opened my eyes and I feel like a whole new world just opened up to me Thank you for all the work you put into both of these crafting guides!
Wow sub this video is put together extremely well. Stayed on point for each topic. Always recommending your tutorials to the newcomers on Sony servers.❤
I have watched this whole video 2 or 3 times and every time i get significantly better at crafting. This league I have taken a bunch of random junk wands I found and crafted them and have been selling them for 5 div Easily the best crafting explanation
I first came across you by watching that first crafting video. Since them I've followed your videos and watched your streams, joined the discord, league started firetrap/frostblink. Just want to say thank you as you have improved me as a POE player massively and thus improved my experience of the game. Never let the negative people get you down because you are a huge asset to this community and highly valued. This video already looks another classic.
Maaan thank you very much! Seriously! I’ve just started playing, like 2-3 weeks at the moment and I’ve leaned SOOO MUCH all thanks to you, thank you very much for all the time and effort that you put into the content you make. Truly appreciated, Master Subtractem
Really like that this guy tries to teach the community the basics of the game. This game is really complex and for a new player it is just overwhelming
The changes highlighted in this video have never had a chance to be brought together in one spot and have given alot of newer and especially returning crafter headaches. Thanks alot for giving us a place to return to and not get confused by all the old rules that were changed multiple times. Also lets hope Chris doesnt troll you and modify the items you covered in next patch lol.
I hope that I can pass the test! Let me know if anyone else is looking to start a study group! lol, all kidding aside, your guides are on another level!
"There is no such thing like content creator luck!" Said before getting unique from orb of chance in first video and repeated before getting perfect roll on first sacred orb.
For the heist currency section might have been good to mention that the enchant for +1 crafted modifier exists and that can be a big deal when combined with meta crafting stuff. Potentially the 4 rule breaking bases in heist (simplex, astrolabe, and the 2 rings) are noteworthy too.
I am using your SRS Guardian this year and getting further than I ever have. I am SSF and reached a point to start really crafting my 85+ gear, but I am a little lost. Some of your notes are great (fractured base, etc.), but I think a step by step video showing what you would do 1) how to obtain the fractured base (Abyss farm?); 2) essence spamming; 3) should you use Rog, etc. would be super helpful. Great videos thank you!
fractured items are both a huge deal for crafting but also a complete pipe dream in ssf. sometimes you get a +1 all skills fractured amulet and other times you dont. you can somewhat force a fractured item using harbinger on your atlas tree to get fracturing shards, which honestly you should have harbi anyway if you dont in ssf for the exalts to slam the stuff you alt spam / clusters and whatnot, but fracturing shards are super rare so its not exactly easy to get them. as for essence spamming you legit just farm essences and when you get some you use them on items and hope you roll something good. for rog just check for anything that looks like a decent item but with low rolls and hope for upgrade tiers or try and like roll all good prefixes or suffixes then use meta crafting to finish the the other half. Hope this helps
In my opinion, such videos can be safely included in the “Tutorial” category in the game itself/wiki/and on those resource sites where people try to tell how wonderful the world of PoE crafting is. (With permission of the copyright holder of course 😉 ) Thanks for the video!
You can still get double veiled helms through the Journalist div card and drops, not super relevant to crafting, but would have been nice as a side note.
At 10:30 you say the eldritch currencies work on shields, withoyt being ingame atm, it doesn't seem that they do to me from what I read on CraftOfExile and the wiki.
Great vid. He mentioned the most expensive currency Harbingers drop is the fractured orb/parts. Do they not have a chance to drop mirror shards anymore?
The price of a mirror shard actually varies greatly depending on which league and time of the league. They're pretty close in price for the first week or two and then the mirror shard goes up quickly.
Thanks Sub, These videos are super helpful! your first crafting video is what got me into POE. @55:27 you said your armor was item level 71 so you could only get T2 chaos res, but it already had T1 chaos res on it before you harvest crafted it. can you explain that?
In the last year or so you have lapped every other POE content creator. Knowledgeable, chill, you can don't have an annoying voice. Mathil wins sex appeal......... but other than that you are killing it!
@subtractem Thanks for your Video! I've learned a lot, but I am stuck right now. I am hoping you could give me some advise. I am trying to craft some Gloves for my COC ForbiddenRite Build (which is actually built after your former build). Main target on the LVL 85 Sorcerer Gloves is +2 AOE, high ES (about 200) and RES. I started by rolling the RES Suffixes via Essences, and fixed them with "Suffixes can't be changed" to make sure to hit a Prefix with Viled Chaos. After hitting +2AOE, I am stuck with not knowing how to get safly flat ES and %ES to get close to 200ES on that gloves. It would be very kind of you if you take the time to give me some advise! Thanks! Greetings!
I like how candid Subtractem is. You can always critic and get a true and humble response. My critique? Change the title from "Advanced+ FULL Crafting Crash Course" to "Introduction to crafting currency", because this is what this is. It's a run down of each crafting item, what it is, what it does, where to get it, any rules that apply...etc, etc, etc.
Do you think they could remove some the the cases where metamods are ignored, like essences etc? Also did you forget divine supply was also reduced because they removed the 6l recipe which also affected prices.
I played PoE when workbench didn't exist yet.. all of this new stuff is really overwhelming.. GGG added so much more yet leveling is still the same huh
I've removed advanced from the title because it seems to be a sticking point for many people. In my opinion these techniques _are_ the advanced ones but, in the end, it really doesn't matter.
POE needs a tier of crafting mods lower than the current ones, so that new players can get into some semi decent crafting before having to spend countless chaos / devine etc. So lower level rare items. That would allow newer players to get familiar through practice with the systems before the fear of burning currency kicks in.
Wow, but mute point as I can never get the good crafting currency nor quantity to do things. Which means I cant get to higher maps which I cant get better stuff and cant beat bosses which in turn means cant get good enuff currency. which means....which which means...I'm f@@ked !! Vicious cycle !
Thank you for the video, I appreciate it for understanding the system, unfortunately what is shown with tainted fusings is what I expect will happen to me where I will buy a limited currency and then RNG will screw me over. I resent GGG for this gambling trashcan gameplay they call crafting and your knowledge has demonstrated this game has such little respect for player time and pushes players to be slot machine addicts. Tainted Exalted orbs can randomly brick your item? This game bricks items constantly with “crafting” to prevent traders from selling too much gear. This is so flagrantly insulting, GGG are so bad. Thank you again, I’m new and dumb so I appreciate your content, but the more I learn, the more I will never give a penny to GGG, what a hateful dev team, so adversarial with their players, I’m not allowed to use crafting on gear I pick up off the ground because the devs wants to brick gear for sellers so I have to risk ruining the gear I used to even survive T16 maps. Complete failure in game design by GGG, what a slap in the face.
TIL Advanced+ means reading what the thing does before doing it. Joke of a title. As the intro says, its been 2 years since your beginner guide, so you made a new one to replace it.
Joke of a comment. If you watched the previous video you'd understand what this video means as supplementary content. With the techniques in this video you can craft everything in the game. For a beginner, these ARE advanced. Crafting in PoE has many options but no specific step is "hard" to do. Considering I even go into doing Vivid Vulture + Cracic setups I think it's very fair to call this advanced. If you aren't a beginner and you know everything in the video, congrats you know how to craft in PoE. But don't troll content made for people learning something you already know.

Another thing that new players dont have in mind with the resistance changing harvest craft, is that when you are searching for an item to buy on trade, you dont have to restrict the search for the specific res that you need, you can search for any res and just change it, you will get way more search results that way

Don’t get overwhelmed. You can just play the game at first. All of the advanced stuff comes as you go.
Affliction League is my 3rd league and I have always fumbled my way through crafting or followed a step by step guide. Even after your first video, it just didn't click in my head.
But man, THIS video really opened my eyes and I feel like a whole new world just opened up to me
Thank you for all the work you put into both of these crafting guides!
The sequel of the best PoE video ever made?! This is amazing, thank you!
Wow sub this video is put together extremely well. Stayed on point for each topic. Always recommending your tutorials to the newcomers on Sony servers.❤
never has anyone explained shit this clearly before. Thank you for breaking it down without obscure language and tangents. So good.
I have watched this whole video 2 or 3 times and every time i get significantly better at crafting. This league I have taken a bunch of random junk wands I found and crafted them and have been selling them for 5 div
Easily the best crafting explanation
Man, thank you for explaining all so fricking well and easy to understand. This and the first part are THE videos beginners in crafting should watch.
I first came across you by watching that first crafting video. Since them I've followed your videos and watched your streams, joined the discord, league started firetrap/frostblink.

Truly appreciated, Master Subtractem
2mins in and i can already feel it, its gonna be a great vid
This is like "terminator 2" for crafting!! I KNEW you'll be back! ❤
Insane amount of work as always, perfect tutorial for beginners in crafting. Video was a blast, thank you very much !
Insane amount of sitting down and jus talking
Always a huge effort you put into these! You're the only reason I understand what the fuck is going on in PoE haha
I am so grateful for the content you have prepared! Solid, well articulated and informative, in the simplest way. Thank you.
this is a really lovely video as someone who has little experience with the mindset needed for crafting
Really like that this guy tries to teach the community the basics of the game. This game is really complex and for a new player it is just overwhelming
Going through maps for the first time this league (Affliction) and found this video extremely helpful. Thank you
I started watching this video and dropped a Doctor. Confirmed strat.
Why is this top comment.. man casual PoE players are cringe af
THANK YOU FOR THIS. Was on stream a few weeks ago asking for this and you were skeptical. Thanks for changing your mind!!
Super helpful video, as a new player this made crafting 1000x more accessible
Thanks man
The changes highlighted in this video have never had a chance to be brought together in one spot and have given alot of newer and especially returning crafter headaches. Thanks alot for giving us a place to return to and not get confused by all the old rules that were changed multiple times.

Nice, been waiting for this.
I don’t 😂f
I hope that I can pass the test! Let me know if anyone else is looking to start a study group! lol, all kidding aside, your guides are on another level!
Man, so great to see a follow-up. Thank you for the content.
Finally I wanted to watch your last video a month ago but I felt like it's to old to cover everything. Thanks man.
subtractem, the man, the legend. Thanks for providing this easy to digest content to school us filthy casual exiles.
Its only been 5 min and I already learned something lol Thanks for video sub!
Good thing that I watched the part 1, 1 hour ago and I am just 2weeks to the game. Thank you so much for this. I am going to watch part 2 now.
I NEEDED THIS SO BAD! THANKS

Finally a video nobody can possibly dislike
you'd be surprised!
THANK-YOU! this is a beast of crafting video. Definitely a big boy video.
Split is also used a lot on logbooks.
My man, BIG ups and an even BIGGER thanks! 👊🏾
Wow I picked the perfect time to get into this game

yay new crafting video XD
thanks subtractum bro!
Highly appreciated. Thank you!
Great vid, +50 light radius to PoE crafting vision :3
Oh god i just recently rewatched og video
No way, it's back
Great vid as always, I really appreciate. Thx :)
In my opinion, such videos can be safely included in the “Tutorial” category in the game itself/wiki/and on those resource sites where people try to tell how wonderful the world of PoE crafting is. (With permission of the copyright holder of course 😉 ) Thanks for the video!
22:34 What's that crosshair thing? And how did you draw lines on your game?
You can still get double veiled helms through the Journalist div card and drops, not super relevant to crafting, but would have been nice as a side note.
At 10:30 you say the eldritch currencies work on shields, withoyt being ingame atm, it doesn't seem that they do to me from what I read on CraftOfExile and the wiki.
26:00 Is 6 linking this way also affected by quality of the item?
Great vid. He mentioned the most expensive currency Harbingers drop is the fractured orb/parts. Do they not have a chance to drop mirror shards anymore?
The price of a mirror shard actually varies greatly depending on which league and time of the league. They're pretty close in price for the first week or two and then the mirror shard goes up quickly.
@@subtractem Ahh ok. I legit didn't know. I had not played in a few leagues.
Thanks Sub, These videos are super helpful! your first crafting video is what got me into POE. @55:27 you said your armor was item level 71 so you could only get T2 chaos res, but it already had T1 chaos res on it before you harvest crafted it. can you explain that?
Edit, nvm it was rolled with essence chaos res.
In the last year or so you have lapped every other POE content creator. Knowledgeable, chill, you can don't have an annoying voice. Mathil wins sex appeal......... but other than that you are killing it!
What armor mtx is that? Looks very cool.
@subtractem Thanks for your Video! I've learned a lot, but I am stuck right now. I am hoping you could give me some advise.

Well that's the previous video, this is a lot more!
Hepls a lot. Thank you ,bro
Do you think they could remove some the the cases where metamods are ignored, like essences etc? Also did you forget divine supply was also reduced because they removed the 6l recipe which also affected prices.
it helps me a lot tyvm :)
Wonder what they will do with poe2
what about vendor crafting??
Is a crafting only ideally after campaign? Are items lower than lvl 85 worthless/unsaleable?
no, in fact sometimes you want specifically lower level items to target modifiers that you want!
45:02 - not true, rarest is mirror shard
100,000+ views coming up!
well done
thanks man
Greaaatt 🥰🙏
best poe content creator :)
I played PoE when workbench didn't exist yet.. all of this new stuff is really overwhelming.. GGG added so much more yet leveling is still the same huh
That chest piece tho
god I want resonators back
fusings are still 30c+ not 9c
My head hurts
Good video, I wouldnt call it advanced though, its more a beginner explanation of crafting mechanics that are more than orbs
I've removed advanced from the title because it seems to be a sticking point for many people. In my opinion these techniques _are_ the advanced ones but, in the end, it really doesn't matter.
I can give you 12 beach maps and 2 sextans for this light radius wand, i am faarming in dark places :
POE needs a tier of crafting mods lower than the current ones, so that new players can get into some semi decent crafting before having to spend countless chaos / devine etc. So lower level rare items.

play a good build that doesnt need currency to farm

Crafting is nothing but gambling for the rich. Craft for yourself and go broke.
This isn't true.
It’s just too much.
