Crafting plays a crucial role in Path of Exile, allowing players to enhance their gear and create powerful items. In a previous article, we discussed the process of removing fractures, which received overwhelmingly positive feedback. Many players were unaware that fractures could be removed, and it significantly helped them progress in their crafting projects. In response to the community's requests for more tips and tricks, today's article will focus on crafting synthesized items, using a fascinating synthesized bow called the "Bow of the Underground" as an example. While the Synthesis League may have removed the old Atlas nodes for synthesized maps, we'll explore how you can acquire synthesized items and guide you through the process of creating your own.
Imprinting the Base Item:
Before delving into the synthesis process, it's important to determine if your base item requires imprinting. If the item has valuable affixes or implicit mods, such as a crucial tree, you'll want to safeguard those attributes. Imprinting allows you to create a copy or save state of the item, preserving its unique properties.
To imprint an item, you'll need a magic copy of it. Visit the Menagerie and capture a few Cricket Camaros. Once you have these beasts, simply type "imprint" or "imp" and use them on your item. This process will create an imprint of your item, but remember that imprints cannot be applied to fractured items. Keep this in mind if you plan on using any fracture orbs in your crafting process.
The Synthesis Process:
To synthesize an item, start by acquiring a base item that you wish to enhance. If it's a regular base item and you don't mind what happens to it, there's no need for imprinting. However, if you want to preserve specific mods, like a crucial tree, follow the imprinting process described earlier.
Head to your hoarder crafting station and type "synthesis" in the search bar. This action will cost you 5,000 yellow lifeforce and one white lifeforce. Each attempt at synthesis costs approximately three divine orbs and two and a half imprint beasts.
When you synthesize an item, it will receive random synthesizer implicits. These implicits can greatly impact the item's power and value. Ideally, you're looking for specific synthesized implicits. If you manage to hit desired implicits or obtain three synthesized mods, you can consider the synthesis process successful.
Testing the Synthesis:
In this guide, we'll use a mirrored version of the Bow of the Underground as an example. Although the article's budget doesn't allow for extensive testing, we'll demonstrate the process on this item to give you a clear understanding.
Begin by synthesizing the item and observe the implicits you obtain. If the implicits are not what you desired, use the previously created imprint to restore the item to its original state. Remember that the imprint will only work on unfractured items.
Repeat the synthesis process, ensuring you double and triple-check everything before imprinting or making any changes to the item. This cautious approach prevents accidental loss of valuable mods or properties.
Conclusion:
Crafting synthesized items in Path of Exile can be an exciting and rewarding endeavor. While we couldn't explore all the possibilities due to limited resources in this article, we hope this guide has provided you with a clear understanding of the process. Experimenting with synthesis allows you to create unique and powerful items that suit your playstyle.
