I say if you can't get 6 link in like 200 fuse it's time to quit the league. At that point I clearly have bad rng and probably wont find any good items either.

But yeah prophecy has lots of cool stuff that will be missed. What I am looking forward to is having some of the good prophecy unique items drop.

I literally have gotten it every single league for less than 700-900 Fuse. I'm sorry you have never tried.

OK, I'll bite. How many maps do you run in 1 hour of "early mapping" to drop 200 fuses?
I see maybe 2 fuses/map on a good average... and I don't run a map every 45 seconds, especially early on. Maybe 10 maps/hour if I'm playing fast and not trying to accumulate chaos to oimprove a rare.
Would you genuinely rather people who have been playing for ten years just leave and quit polluting (and paying for) your god game?

Oh, BTW, no trading. Play with what drops. 200 fusings/hour in early maps, yes?

Whats another easy way to six link without spending 5k fuse? spanks

Why cry about Fated Connections? In all my time playing, I've never got a single one.

Somehow, I still have had 6Ls every single league, and usually far less than 1500 Fuse per.

If the prophecy is almost as rare as a Headhunter, why even bother crying over it?

Because sometimes you have an item that you want to link and you can't afford to risk linking it yourself because thats an item that you already use.

I remember in talisman league i told myself "lets get my first 6 link of the league by linking it myself". After a bit over 4k fusings i still didn't have my 6 link so i gave up and ended up getting 1.5k more fusings for the guaranteed crafting recipe (back then fusings were worth a shit ton, 60 per exalts). Needless to say that i was stuck with a damn 5 link for a while that league.

I bought the fated connection prophecy numerous times in the past to get my first 6 link in the league, always at a time that i can't afford to fail-linking myself so i wanted a guaranteed 6 link and before i could unlock the 6-link crafting recipe (it can take a while to find the place to unlock it).

So yeah, you are mistaken, that prophecy was quite useful for some player.

And just for the record, i once 6-linked an item with one fusing, but of course it had to be late in a league when i actually only wanted a 5 link for various skills/auras HAHA.

So basically, the odds for 6-linking a 20 quality item is 1 in 1200. So some peoples will get lucky and get it done in less than that (like you) and some peoples can take a shit ton more than 1.2k fusings.

Trying to remember my shenanigans with fusings over last two years, most of the 6Ls fall into 500-1000 range. Had a few really lucky ones, like that ilvl40ish chest i got from +2 box in act 3 which took like 2 fuses (i had under 10 in my stash by then),also had a few bitchy ones, shavronne in some league took close to 4k and some 45+ quality astral plate in standard took over 4k but under 5k.

max level in act 3 is is 33 , dominus the final boss is 35, so if you get a lvl 33 chest with +2 as it is the max for the zone you have a level 35 item, 6 link need lvl 50 minimum
