Video Summary: Crafting the Eventuality Rod - Build Cyclone by Afana (Weapon Option #1)

Storyline / Context

Gregor presents a crafting guide for a powerful Cyclone weapon designed by the player Afana. Afana is actively farming and preparing to build his Cyclone character, providing two weapon build options. This video focuses on crafting one of these weapon options, emphasizing its physical damage potential and crafting complexity.

Gameplay Highlights & Crafting Process

1. Crafting Overview

The weapon focuses heavily on physical damage stats.
Crafting involves balancing flat physical damage, hybrid physical damage (physical + life), and percentage-based physical damage.
The crafting cost is high, potentially reaching the value of a Mirror of Kalandra (a very expensive in-game currency), especially if enchanted.
Without enchantment, the weapon costs around 350-400 Divine Orbs.

2. Crafting Steps

Prefixes:

Start by crafting physical damage prefixes using Essences and Fossils.
Use Flat Physical Damage Essences to roll flat physical damage mods.
Aim for hybrid mods that combine physical damage and life.
Use Jagged Fossils to increase physical damage rolls without chaos modifiers.
Shift-click crafting to batch roll mods efficiently.
The goal is to hit Tier 1 (T1) or Tier 2 (T2) physical damage prefixes.

Suffixes:

After prefixes, work on suffixes such as attack speed.
Use Fossils and Essences to roll suffixes.
Use Divine Orbs to reroll and optimize attack speed and other suffixes.
Manage suffixes carefully to avoid overfilling and wasting mods.
Use Annulment Orbs to remove unwanted suffixes without destroying good prefixes.

Fracturing and Combinator:

Use fracturing to lock in good mods.
If fractured mods disappear, use the combinator to recover or re-fracture them.

3. Key Crafting Tools

Essences: For guaranteed physical damage rolls.
Jagged Fossils: Boost physical damage mods, no chaos mods.
Divine Orbs: For rerolling mods, especially suffixes like attack speed.
Annulment Orbs: To remove specific unwanted mods.
50/50 Orbs: For adding a new prefix or suffix with a chance to keep existing ones.

4. Tips & Strategies

Be patient; crafting high-tier mods is difficult and costly.
Batch craft to increase chances of hitting desired mods.
Use fossils strategically depending on the mods you want to roll.
Save fractured mods and use the combinator to maximize crafting success.
Consider market prices for essences and fossils to optimize costs.
Attack speed is a crucial suffix mod for this weapon and should be prioritized.
Enchantment (from a special in-game NPC) can greatly increase weapon power but also cost.

5. Costs & Economics

Total crafting cost around 50 Divine Orbs.
Additional cost if applying enchantments or high-end crafting orbs.
The weapon is expensive but considered a top-tier option for Cyclone builds.
Alternative cheaper options exist but with lower performance.

Summary of Weapon Stats Achieved

Around 172-199% physical damage (Tier 1 and Tier 2 mods).
25-27% attack speed.
Hybrid mods combining physical damage and life.
Balanced suffixes optimized through divine rerolls and annulments.
