5-link before a10 kitava?

Just thought it'd be great to have a 5l before A10 kitava, especially for SSF. There is a quest called Death and Rebirth after which Lani gives a rare 4l armor - this could be a rare 5l instead.
I've lost a nice ED trickster in ssf to kitava cos I never found a 5l and even though I had good defenses (4.3k hp, max resists, blasphemy+temp chains) my damage was so low on a 4l ED that the fight took too long and eventually got hit by things and dieded.
There's no option to get any 5l before kitava, no div cards, no nothing. Either a quest reward or some farming option would be nice to have. I mean, we could even farm a kaom's chest in A6 (arguably it takes considerable time) but not a 5l before mapping :/

Edit: I'm a dummy... forgot about tabula farming in blood aqueducts.
Edit 2: Almost exactly 2 hours after my 1st edit about tabula:

-> in case you were wondering how long it takes. (had an avg bisco's on)
Did it with my char I was just leveling, between lvl66-72. 130M avg xp/h too.

There's the jewelers touch prophecy if you really want a 5l.
You can farm humility in blood aqueduct for a 6 link.

When speaking of SSF, I'd guess that's about as rare as an actual 5link drop. And it would be a real shame to use that one rare thing you get on an iLvl ~60 item I suppose.

I just started my first SSF char and only act 7, so 4link is still kinda OK, but I was wondering about that 5link item as well as OP.
Reality is an illusion, Exile.
Farm blood aqueduct until you get your Tabula Rasa with the div cards.

The drop rarity is not bad at all and the zone is straight. It's how I do all my SSF characters. If you focus on life and res in other slots (outside of the 1 or 2 uniques you use), you can easily get 5k life with a tabula. That'll get you in T1-T5 maps (maybe even higher) easily.

Here you can farm while you pray you get the unique chest you need or craft the base of your choice to get you a 6L.

You folks sure are interesting! I've been clearing T8 Maps with little to no issues on a 4L.

A 5 Link isn't really that hard to roll or to save up for, even SSF, which I have done more than once.

No it is not, I always build a bunch of 5l each League, this League I also managed to do a 6L (I was kinda lucky though)

But the point here was to get a 5l before Kitava... farming 150 fuses before going to maps is going to take ages. Farming Tabula is a much better option.

Jeweller's touch is too rare to be realiable, I always go for it... saving coins and spending them later on but most the times by the time I get the prophecy I have already 5linked an item using fuses.

I literally was running blood aqueducts the other day for exp and no lie every 3 instances I found a humility card. Not hard to farm a tabula.

That was my first tabula all league because I could care less for a 6 link before maps.

But it’s easy
