We need an Orb of Fusing recipe please.

Hey GGG, where's the Orb of Fusing recipe? What's that, there is none. Why not? You provided a nice Chromatic, Armourer's Scrap, and Blacksmith's Whetstone recipe. Why did you stop there?
And what about Blessed Orb?
5 Orb of Chance = Normal + Magic + Rare + Unique of the same name. Where in Wraeclast am I going to find a unique to make this work? It's bad enough that uniques that do drop are mostly of the low level trash kind and since they are so difficult to find this (and many other recipes) are worthless.

The whole recipe system needs to be reworked so we can have more ways to collect loot that can be vendored for useful crafting orbs. It's not like it's raining crafting orbs all the time. More like a severe crafting orb drought.

What's that you say, the recipe system is working as intended? If by this you mean does it drive us all to frustration and madness. Then congrats. You have succeeded.

Does having worthless unusable recipes make you happy?

Strange system in place. It seems the only winning move is to not use the rare crafting orbs and just hoard them. Strange way to promote PoE as having a better crafting system then any other arpg by not having the ingredients required for the recipe to work.

Very strange indeed. And very wrong!

Except we have?

you can buy a fusing for 4 jewlers at act 3 npcs

It would be nice to have one but from what I understand GGG wants some of these things to be discovered.

you can turn alterations into jewellers

for jewellers you can buy Fusings straight from NPC.

try to buy 1 chaos for 20 alterations.

This is how to convert chaos ---> fusings

you are welcome

Pretty sure we have that. Just have to sell a 6S for 1 fusing and 3 jewellers.

What discovery? I've been playing a few hundred hours in HC and have used a few fusings (less than a dozen I think) and only have 8 right now. So where does GGG want us to go in Wraeclast to discover them?

Compare that to 144 Armourer's Scrap, 73 Blacksmith's Whetstones (I've used about 50), and 43 Prismatics (I've used near 100), and you can clearly see that Fusing Orbs are not going to be found in Wraeclast.

Buy fusings with Jeweller's Orbs?
Orb of Fusing = 2 Jeweller's Orbs = 4 Orbs of Alteration

Ok, I have 95 Augs so that would get me a whopping 11 Fusings. Wow, a whole 11! Besides the low number the Jeweller's Orb is extremely valuable and best saved for trying to 5S or 6S a piece of gear and I see it as a waste to use them to buy Fusings. We need both if we want to take high level gear and re-roll the sockets and links. So buying fusings isn't practical.

edit: I misread buying a Jeweller's Orb. It's 4 Alts and not Augs. My bad.

That makes it even worse as I only have 40 Alts so at 8 alts = 1 fusing I could only buy 5 fusings.

Since I haven't seen a 6S item drop yet as I have no character in Merciless yet I can only hope that 6S white trash items are as common as superior items are at the higher levels.

Does 6S gear drop frequently at the higher levels?

I have 14 Chaos and they are "my precious".

From what I've seen, not so common but still you get some from time to time. Then again, I run 100%+ IIQ when I farm.

Also you don't actually get a fusing, but 7 jewellers, hence 1 fusing and 3 jewellers due to the 4 jewellers for 1 fusing from npc.

You've either AFKed for 95% of the hundres hours you "played" in HC or that's just bs.

Also wtf is a "prismatic"
