Hi all,

Path of Exile's new League, The Forbidden Sanctum, launches today at 2 PM Eastern time, so I thought it'd be good to have a thread about it. Who else is leaguestarting today/this weekend? Does anyone want to team up for playing through the acts?

For those who missed it: Hexbear has its own Path of Exile guild, named Path of Hexile (guild page is here, though non-members won't be able to see anything there). Anyone who would like to join is welcome, please either DM me here or message @Atrociraptor in-game to do so.

Also, for anyone who is leaguestarting: what build do you plan to run?

I'm going to do hit EA Raider again, since it was so easy to level last league, then stop in the mid-60s (just before killing Kitava) to do some endless Heist for a while, and try to trade my way up to early riches.

    Yeah profit-crafting is of interest to me as well. I ended up with about 300 divines last league but I always end up struggling to go any further.

      Dunno if you've seen this but this guy runs a little blog where he details some really good profit crafting/hideout warrior stuff: https://thehideouthandbook.com/

      Edit: He made a recent post on the profitability of doing a ton of flask crafting and I can vouch its very VERY easy divs, especially early league. If you use regex to highlight good hits and smash a ton of flasks at once you can make a stupid amount of free cash early on. I'd actually suggest anyone here to take a look at that guide because it will really help with currency generation early on, especially if your build is somewhat scuffed.

        Nice, thanks for the link, will check that out!

        I've always been quite fond of flask-crafting myself, actually. I've made some decent money on that, but mainly I like to have top-tier flasks.

          Yeah he has some other ideas that are very very obviously profitable when you consider it. Honestly I'm glad hes not a youtuber because it would ruin everything hes talked about
