POE2 0.4.0 Crafting Guide - 2-3 divine endgame Grenade Crossbow - Path of Exile 2

#poe2 #pathofexile2 #patchnotes

This cost more to craft when recording than it does now, even though it was 3-4 divines when written, you should be able to make this under 2½ divines now.

0:00 Intro
0:17 Note - this is a patch 0.4.0 crafting guide. From April 2026 onwards, this might be out of date!
0:32 Acknowledgements - this takes a bit from a ‪@Lolcohol‬ guide for talismans (but is different). Also there's a written version. Also, how it's different.
1:47 The early steps are RNG. VERY RNG, but cheap to try again.
2:14 What we are trying to build - T1 or T2 phys%, T3 flat phys, Amanamu grenade prefix, Perfect Battle essence, + any two (probably mediocre) mods
3:33 The 'Sell And Start Over' principle in trade (and SSF variant)
4:41 Why Not Settle For A Cheaper Base? Siege Crossbows are INCREDIBLE
5:06 Step 1: Trade for i82 bases, Perfect Transmute them and Perfect Augment them, chasing 'Merciless' or 'Tyrannical' prefix
7:40 What To Do When This Step Goes Wrong (no %IPD, no projskills) - sell, usually at a loss, start over. (in SSF, vendor)
8:37 The Absolute Dream - %IPD and +7 projskills - sell at a HUGE markup, buy a very very very good crossbow
9:09 What To Do When It Goes Wrong And Right At Once (+7 Proj Skills Suffix, Wrong Prefix) - sell at a markup, start over (in SSF, hold onto it for later projects)
9:31 Our Goal After Step 1
10:15 Step 2: Deterministic Essence Step (Greater Abrasion)
10:54 Step 3: Deterministic Abyss Craft
11:43 IMPORTANT REMINDER about using two omens at once
13:19 Where We Are Now - Our 3 Prefixes Down
13:34 The Next Step Is A Fork In The Road. Should We Take A Risk Here Or Not... That Choice Is Yours
14:29 The Deterministic Option - Sacrifice a good Omen for 100% chance to succeed...
15:27 The Second Option - no Omen, some risk of ruin, but this IS cheaper ... most of the time.
