Check in PoB whether it is better for you than T1 phys to attacks.

If you do remove / add attack mods, make sure you get a different crafted suffix so that only the attack prefix is replaced. To hit the T1 melee damage mod, you will need an average of 30 attempts if you do that.

Thank you. That's somehting I have to consider... I didn't realize that I would have to undo the perfect attack speed roll.

Is there a calculator to tell my how likely I am to get a certain mod?

Considering it costs an average of 12 chaos and some scours to get that roll, I would not consider it to be a particularly high cost to recraft the attack speed. If you get a few remove / add speed crafts from Harvest, you might as well try to hit T1 attack speed instead.

I mostly use Craft of Exile to estimate the chances to roll mods, but it takes a while to figure out how to actually configure it correctly. It helps to know roughly what the result should be in order to see if there's a mistake in the configuration or the calculation (since it is not 100% bug free).

Also, there are certain scenarios that it cannot account for, such as the chance to hit at least one out of several possible modifiers if the selected options are both prefixes and suffixes.

Final update to this thread.

(please don't consider it spam, instead see it as an ode to the awesome crafting Harvest gave us access to. I really love it. Thanks to GGG and to everyone who helped and helps others to understand all the complex mechanisms of this game)

This will be the gear my SalomeBesame will receive as a present after the end of the league. None of these items may be perfect, but it's better than anything that a poor SSF style player could have dared to dream of before Harvest.




(sockets still need to be linked)








(she'll have to decide for herself which pair of boots she wants)





(attack speed is just a placeholder)


(attack speed needs to be added by Harvest crafting)

Now the last thing I'll have to prepare for her is a good Shaper-influenced ring with Assassin's Mark on hit.

Enjoy the last three weeks of Harvest, or, if you should have already quit, enjoy whatever you are doing now.

Greetings,
