Path of Exile 2 - Is Runeforging a Currency Maker?
397 segments
Hey everyone and welcome to a pretty
unique video. I think today we are going
to be rune forging with the verium anvil
because a couple days ago when I made
the expedition pinnacle boss luda video,
a number of comments were dedicated to
mentioning how I deleted some dualities
and telling me that the point of this
weapon is to reforge it looking for the
increased physical damage and then
apparently those can be some big money.
So, I went through we have two tabs over
here and then I have just some more in
my guild stash tab. My other tabs are
being allocated to other content at the
moment, but we're going in with 72 of
these. We're going to reforge them and
then I'm going to try to like beef them
up a little bit. So, the rolls on these
aren't anything too special right now
just because reforging isn't going to
have like a 100% chance to work. So, I
was able to get these for pretty cheap.
And if we reforge them and they get like
increased physical damage, then what I'm
going to do is we're going to use the V
Blacksmith's infusers to hopefully get
the quality to above 20%, probably stop
at like 25%. And then we can socket them
with increased physical damage. And then
we can make those masterwork runes,
bringing the increase to 20%. Right now,
they don't have any quality or sockets.
Again, we only care about the ones that
hit. So, there was no need to start with
like 290% increased physical damage
bases, and there's no need to like
quality them or socket them yet. Now,
before we get into the reforging, we can
take a look at the input cost because
this was not cheap. So, we can see 120
divines invested for this. And I'm
pretty sure we're going to lose some
currency today, but we're going to
hopefully have fun doing it. Duality 72
of these. Didn't even spend a divine on
them. The Olth's crest and the
exceptional Verissium though, the two
items that we need to reforge these,
that is where a lot of the input cost is
coming from. And then again, I just have
some of those blacksmiths infusers, so
we can bring the quality from 20% to
30%. And then we have some masterwork
runes as well. So, we're looking at
about 120 divines invested. I'm also
including the gold cost. That is about
five castaways worth of gold. And if
anything hits, we are going to have to
divine it. So, who knows how many
divines we'll spend on these. I mean,
maybe 50. I have no idea. And the loot.
Well, we're going to have to like price
check these as we get them. Just looking
at the actual rolls, but I think we can
just take a quick look at the market,
see what these could be worth. So, a
runemastered duality, five exalts. This
did not get the increased physical
damage, but if we sort by the physical
damage, we sort again. I don't know why
it starts at the bottom of the list, but
we can see 300 divines. This one is
perfectly rolled and it has 30% quality,
which is pretty risky. So, if we get an
increase to the physical damage, and
then if we use the blacksmith's infuser
to get it to maybe like 25% quality,
maybe 30% quality, these could be pretty
big. But the verium anvil is very far
away. I think we can just we'll just
move this. Bang. Beautiful. We can take
out the first inventory. And then in
here, we just have the exceptional
vericium and the Oloth's crests. We can
just keep those in there, and we should
be able to use them. This might take a
little while, but you can see we use one
crest and 20 exceptional vericium per
duality. So, I guess we just have to
keep an eye on the physical damage,
291%.
And I think we lost. It's still 291. I
hope I'm not doing something wrong. Can
I reforge this again? No. So, apparently
there's a chance when we reforge these
that the damage is just going to go up.
276 high roll. Okay, we lost again. I
We're deleting like two divines every
time we do this. 299. Wait, did this go
up? I wasn't paying attention. Wait, I
think we're winning. Wait, no, this is
just 252%. Okay, no, I don't think that
went up. We're losing. Okay, 281. We
have to keep an eye out on that number.
Okay, that still says 281. And then this
275. Oh, I still wasn't paying
attention. Okay, wait. I actually have
to start paying attention. It doesn't
look like these are going up. Am I doing
something wrong? I have no idea. We
continue. Wait a minute. 314. Did that
go up? I wasn't paying attention. What
is going on? Um, I think we lost. Next
inventory. I mean, if we get like a 50%
increase, it should be noticeable. I
mean, we should be looking at like 400
physical damage. So, let's uh let's try
that one more time. I mean, we'll try it
a couple more times. Okay. Wait, wait,
wait, wait a minute. That looks like a
win. 56.
That's an increase. I wish I kind of
like told us somewhere that we got the
increase, but 56. That is winning. Okay,
so we have one. We have one. 288 back to
back. Wait a minute. Nope. This actually
might not be too bad. 303, I think. Wait
a minute. 400. We have two. Wait a
minute. The other one just got crit
chance. Wait a minute. Oh, wait. We can
also get crit chance. What is that
worth? Wait a minute. Okay. So, we we
actually have to like pay attention.
Okay. Can we get attack speed, too?
1.86. Is that normal? Wait a minute.
This one got attack speed. Wait a
minute. We have an inventory of winners
over here. I don't know what attack
speed is worth pro. I mean, I think we
just want the damage and maybe crit. I
mean, 5% crit is not too bad. Let's see
what this one got. I think attack speed
again. Oh, maybe. Is it a one in three?
Does something happen every single time?
So, let's see. 277 10% 1.6. This one got
damage. Wait a minute. Are all of these
winners? 15% 1.8 1.8 15% 1.8.
Oh, wait just a minute. Okay, so all of
these are winners. We get nothing but
winners. So, I think damage is still the
number one. And then crit chance. I
think also might be good. So, let's see.
So, this one 1.79.
I think that's attack speed. So, it
looks like we always get something. This
one got two sockets and it got critical
hit chance. Wait a minute. This is
pretty cool. 1.95 attacks per second. I
think attacks per second is the least
valuable modifier we can get. Like, we
just want that like raw damage. And
let's see. Is this was this the the
final set? So, this one got crit. Wait a
minute. Okay, so that's the first
inventory. So, what I think I will do
because we have almost three tabs of
these to do. Let's just skip over this
identifying and I'll see you once I have
everything organized. All right, we have
returned. Everything has been rune
forged and sorted. And it is not looking
that bad because we have an entire tab
of hits. These all got increased
physical damage. And then we even have a
couple more over here. So it is looking
real good, I think. And over here in the
guild stash tab, we have these that
rolled increased critical hit chance.
These I don't believe are anything.
Maybe like eight exalts a piece. I'm
probably just going to vendor these. And
then we have the ones that got increased
attack speed. And again, I don't think
we can really do anything with these. I
even checked like a perfectly rolled
300% increased physical damage. Duality
with 15% critical hit chance. Three
divines. So these aren't even worth
divining. No value here. No value here.
These are the only ones we care about. I
just added quality to these. They have
sockets. We have the infusers in our
inventory. And I did buy 25 more. I
think we're going to need a couple more.
We just need one big hit. Again, we can
take a look at this. Uncorrupted like
physical damage with 30% quality. This
is like almost max rolled. I don't think
this sells for 900. Even if I could get
like 150 divines, just one of these
surviving the infusers and we at least
break even. And at the end of the day,
that's all I want. I'm not greedy. Fact,
by the way. But with that being said, do
we get all of these to 25% first and
then maybe get them to 30? We'll see.
First infuser, it survived. Okay, we
probably won't go this slow. Come on.
Come on. We need 2%. And that one's
dead. I've I've I've just immediately
lost all hope, honestly, if I'm I'm
being completely honest. We continue
though. 21 23 and dead. Okay, come on.
We Let's Let's Let's get higher than
24%. These are currently about five
divines each uncorrupted. But even if I
was to sell them for that, I wouldn't
break even, and that wouldn't be fun.
So, we will corrupt these. Come on,
please. I mean, we will hopefully not
corrupt these.
24, please. 24. We can get past 24.
Believe we continue. 21. 22. Wait for
it. Why? Stop it. Stop it. Bad. Okay, we
survive. Four infusers, please. Okay,
come on. 22 23. We did it. Science said
it couldn't be done. So, let's stop it.
Let's stop at 25 for now. 23 24 25 Okay,
the RNG was just a little out of whack
at the start. There we go. There we go.
24 25. That's what I'm talking about.
Wait, this is They're surviving another
one. We're doing it. Okay, we continue.
Okay, we have to rip one of these. The
RNG has to balance out. That is five
survivors in a row. Maybe we might just
be able to take a couple of these to
30%. Maybe 25. Another survivor. Wait a
minute. 24 26. What's that? You want to
go to 30%.
I mean, all right. If you
We continue. 21 22 23 Another 25. Wait,
what's that? You want to go to 30%. All
right. Don't let me
We continue. 21 22 23 and this one died
at 24%. Unfortunate. Come on. 24. No.
Wait. The RNG turned around. Why? Okay,
we have another 25 center. Come on. 25.
We take those.
26. Wait a minute. I have a good feeling
about this one. 27. Please.
Why
live? Please. Okay. Come on. We have a
couple more. 21 24. Please. The 2%. I'm
feeling lucky. Why? Wait a minute. Come
on. Please. 22. 24. Wait a minute. 25.
That's only three infusers. Four. Five.
Okay. It's a one in six to corrupt.
Please live.
I don't like these. I don't like this
item. Why? Okay. Come on. Just one 30
center. Please. It's a one in.
Please live.
Okay, so the corrupted ones. Let me Let
me get those out of my inventory real
quick. All right, we have nine left.
Imagine how much money we could save by
just locking these first just so we
could see the the potential outcome.
Okay, so we have the last nine all
uncorrupted. They look so good. Please,
we just need one winner.
Wait for it. We lost one. That's fine.
We have eight remaining. 27 26. Oh no,
we lost two. Oh, I thought we got a
little lucky. We in fact did not. We
have two 27s. One and six. We can do
this. So these are 27s.
Okay, we only lost one. It's a one and
six. We only hit five. Come on, live.
27. 27. Okay, this one got 28. So, we're
down to the last six. The last couple
dualities. Oh, wait. This one's dead,
too. Why? We're down. They're just
They're dropping. I'm not even using the
infuser anymore. And they're still
dropping. Okay, we're down to the last
five. It's a one in six. Two corrupt.
Okay, we lost one. I think that's fine.
Do we have any 29s? 29. 29. Okay, wait a
minute. Let's see. It's a one and six.
Please. 29. Just Just go to 30 without
corrupting. Why? Okay, it is a one in
six. Surely we do not rip three of these
in a row. If that happens, I will
actually be angry. One in six. Did I
just just just keep I I just want to
keep telling myself that one and six
30%. Bang. Easy. And again. Bang. And
one more time. Come on. The triple.
We have two survivors. But now we have
to divine these. Take these out of my
inventory. We'll put these in here. I'm
glad I bought those extra 25 blacksmith
infusers. So, in theory, we need 20
divines to hit 295%.
Plus, this rolls from 200 to 300%. So,
it's a 1 in 20 to get like that like top
5% roll. We have 682
divers. All right, I'm not greedy. 300%
physical damage. That's all I'm asking
for. Okay, we go 216. That's not going
to do it. 293. Is that a settle? Why
does this only have 720? Oh, wait, wait.
We don't have runes in this yet. You
know what? Before we divine, let's just
make these a little bit beefier. 794.
So, these are a little bit better. I
mean, if we can get 130 divines for
that, that's not going to be too bad.
Let's see. The attack speed, the crit
damage is pretty good. Attack speed is
minled. Okay, we have one more. Come on.
293 is the mark to beat. 260. That's not
going to do it. Hello. Well, how do you
do? Nice to meet you. 298.
We did that in five divines. You know
what? 8003.
This is 805. I have the second best one
on the market now. That's not bad. Oh,
wait just a minute. Did somebody say
winning? It's looking pretty good. Let's
see. The crit and the the attack speed
is minled. Can we do better? Do we try
to get a little bit higher on this just
for fun is the question. You know what?
If you're buying this, I mean, now we
could corrupt these and hope that the
physical damage rolls up. I'm not
feeling that lucky, though. So, I think
we're just going to take these two. When
I look at the market, I mean, this one
is higher than one of mine, but I now
have the second best one on the market.
They're probably both just like 200
divines. I mean, but are they even 200
divines? We have to think about this
because why not just buy a 30%
uncorrupted one and divine it yourself?
Honestly, is that not another money
maker? One second. If we just search for
30% quality, if you have to divine this
yourself uncorrupted, there are 40
divines. But then in theory, again, you
would have to put like 20 divines into
it to maybe hit something. So maybe I
just put both of these up for like a
hundred something divines. Wait a
minute. These don't have Wait, do these
have the increased damage rolls? Wait a
minute. They don't. How much DPS does it
have then? 700. I mean, this is the
physical increase and this is 50 and
then it goes to 70. Yeah, this one this
one is uh or 280. But yeah, because 800
is the cap. So it's still like 50. Maybe
70 still. I think we did a little bit of
winning. Now, we just need to uh we just
need to plug this into the right down.
All of the nothing ones. I'm probably
just going to vendor, honestly. So, we
have zero of those. We only spent five
divines on these. And I did just
purchase an extra 25 of these. So, total
input 129 divines. Duality plus damage
value
100ish.
Maybe we got two of those. As long as I
break even, I'm happy. But maybe we can
squeeze out a little bit of profit. This
one I might put up for like I don't know
150. It is the second best on the market
for pretty cheap. And then this one
maybe I'll just put up for like 100 and
see if they sell. But overall I am
surprised this worked out because I went
into this expecting nothing. So yeah,
rune forging is pretty cool. Thank you
to everyone in the comments who
mentioned this telling me that I did
something wrong so I could run this
back. One more update. We only used four
masterwork runes. Not bad. Not bad at
all. And with that, I think we are just
about done for today. So, as always,
everyone, take care.

In this video, the creator attempts to profitably reforge Duality weapons using the Verium anvil after feedback from viewers suggested they had previously deleted valuable items. With an investment of around 129 divines, the creator experiments with RNG to roll for increased physical damage, applies quality improvements with Blacksmith's infusers, and uses masterwork runes to enhance the weapons. Despite some losses during the process, the creator manages to craft high-quality weapons, including one of the best on the market, ultimately aiming to at least break even on their significant investment.
