[Help]Crafting an Astral Plate

Hello guys! I've been playing PoE on and off for like 2 years or so, but never really got into crafting/late game of a league. Im playing a Cyclone build that "requires" a -15 mana cost to attack skills on the chest. The Problem is, i don't how to craft it in the most efficient way possible. I already got my Astral Plate with Warlord's Influence on it and was toying in craftofexile.com but im a complete newbie.

this is the character i have been "following" for itens and stuff:

and this is a video a just saw that made me make this post:

the secound video show how easy is to get critical chance + mana cost reduction aka the dream, but all coments are disable so im a little bit suspicious.

the ideal setup would be like the character i just linked, but one with life, elemental resists and mana cost reduction would be nice

i think that's it, thanks for your time and help.

btw sorry for my fricking bad english, but im not a native speaker

unfortunately, if you want

-15 mana cost
AND
attacks have + crit


warlord influence alone is not good enough.

-15 only comes from warlord.

attacks have crit comes from HUNTER or ELDER.

You would have to use an awakeners orb to add elder/hunter to your warlord plate FIRST. THEN attempt to craft.


If you are ok without the attack crit mod, you can use your warlord plate right now. Get some Pristine Fossils, some Serrated Fossils, and some 2 socket resonators. Put 1 of each fossil in your resonator, then use it on the armor. If you dont like the result, try again.



There is also an item level restriction for these mods. make sure you have a high item level astral plate (turn on advanced tooltips and hold alt while mousing over item). You want one that is ilvl 84+

The guy above me is right.

But if you want to get that -15 mana cost and the crit mod, the awakener orb guarantees 1 signature affix from each item to be copied over to the final chest. So if you roll -15 mana cost on the warlord chest and no other special affix, and the hunter chest has attack crit and no other special affix, you are guaranteed to have both if you use the awakener orb.
