PoE2 0.2.1 Ritual in SSF
I just wanted to give a small opinion about recent "Rare Omens are more common" fix.
I'm increasing rarity of items, but I'm not sure whether it does anything. I have 8/8 ritual atlas tree. I'm running 80+ maps, but I can't afford to create T16 too often due to this being a rare vaal outcome. I haven't seen any rare omen doing non stop those kind of maps for around 10-12h, which is two weekends for me. I can't be picky with Ritual tablets either, as those are rarer than other tablets in SSF. I understand those omens must be rare becase gamers with more time than me set the price, but I think the real issue is, that Ritual very rarely gives me anything other to spend my currency on. Maybe it should give new additional reroll omens, ritual tablets or some way to make next ritual better, or rare omen splinters, or omens being able to upgrade like essences? The real feel bad is, that in expedition, breach and delirium I feel there is a progress even if I don't get what I want quickly, but with ritual it's really hit or miss with little way to improve the odda reliably in SSF. Unless of course, I'm missing something or doing something wrong. Last edited by nvoitek#2871 on Jun 10, 2025, 6:08:42 AM Last bumped on Jun 10, 2025, 10:57:13 AM

From my personal experience, rare omens are much more common. And rarity doesn't affect Rituals at all, this is exactly the reason why Ritual was so popular to farm in 0.1 on Warrior (they simply couldn't afford to get rarity gear, so one of a few profitable strats was to spam Rituals without doing anything else). I think I saw three rare omens which allow you to use chaos orb on a lowest tier mod since 0.2.1 went live, which is not a lot, but much better than it was previously. They are freaking expensive though.

I've been using hella ritual tablets. I'm not buying them. I just have my atlas spec's to find more. The %omens ritual tablet makes them more common.

First we have to figure out, what rare Omens are meant.
For me Omens that are valuable for crafting (e.g. Omen of Whitling - the ones that are used with Chaos Orbs and Orb od Anulment) At 0.2 update i got them quite often. I could collect about 10 Whitling Omens in some days of intense ritual farming. Enough to do some gambling on good items with the chance to enhance them in some way. But far away from crafting itself. I had 8/8 of the Ritual Atlas Points after some time. About 1 month more ago these rare Omens drops were significantly less. It seems an update nerfed that amount. 0.2.1 promised to drop more rare Omens by leaving the ammount of Omens at the same number. I prepared tablets with more Omen drops and an unique each to have more deferal pages. The amount of Omens itsself were as expected. But i had no rare Omen so far. The rarest Omen i had was Omen of Chaos and an Omen of Amelioration. I can conclude that the rare Omens have been nerfed a month ago and with 0.2.1 nothing changed - it was even nerfed a bit more. |
