If all parts of a set are needed, and one doesn't drop, rest might as well be vendor trash. It's a bit annoying to pretend that every fully juiced metamorph kill drops parts you can use only to never let people actually use them.
The times I find a unique eye, the meter doesn't fill up enough for me to actually get the drop lol.This situation with the eyes & to a lesser extent livers is ridiculous. I've now done over 40 maxxed out metamorphosis since the patch and haven't had a single set of eyes.
Even if they fix the drop rates I'm going to have a stupid amount of excess materials now - and that's if this is a mistake and not intentional

Yeah it's random. Can't target farm. The only other "rare" organ I've found was 3 livers. Everything else is mostly brainsAs far as I know they aren't related anymore are they? It's just random what drops from a boss now.
Just farm Blood Aqueducts and start iding Rares that you can use. I would also make sure to complete all side quests that give passive points if you missed those. Also at least try to complete Cruel Labyrinth and then once you have better gear go for Mercliess Lab.So I've played most seasons but always stopped at around lvl 50 so have no concept of the maps or what currency is actually worth anything. For the first time I've actually beaten the campaign and am level 74.
What should my priority be now? Maps seems too hard for me (I just get flat out one shot every so often) so I assume I should farm resistance gear? I'm on solo self found and playing lightning arc.
To get the resistance items should I just delve or where do I go now if not maps?

Also the Crafting Bench in your hideout can craft Resistances on your gear. You should be prioritizing +Maximum Life and Resistances on Rares. Addition of movement speed on boots, stats on rings/amulets to meet gem/equipment requirements (so Strength/DeX amulet). Only offensive stats on your main weapon and I am not sure which build that is but you can use a Shield in Off hand and that's another slot you can have resistances (Spirit shields can also give offensive stats to spells as well do be on look out for those).
You can Delve anyway just to progress in it and unlock a few new crafts. You will eventually run out of Sulphite anyway if you don't go into maps.
Can I add those things from the crating bench to any rare item? It doesn't remove/replace? It's just a flat additional stat? If that's the case I am a dumb ass... made some very poor decisions with items! Oh well.
Yea I did try the cruel lab a couple of times but again got 1 shot. My resistances are awful so it's probably that.

I am using staffs for the record. So no shield slot sadly. That crating bench thing will help so much if I am understanding correctly
That helps a shit load. Thanks very much!
So they fixed organ drops finally. Didn't drop a single eye yesterday despite playing 30+ maps lol
Oh didn't know I could do that.If you go to https://www.pathofexile.com/ -- log in, set your profile to public, you can provide a straight link to your character, gear and passive skill tree. That way we can give more specific advice on what can be improved upon.

I assume that will work? Lvl 73 not 74 it seems! I'm sure that doesn't make much difference.
I still had only one eye drop after 6 hours tonight, but it is better than none!So they fixed organ drops finally. Didn't drop a single eye yesterday despite playing 30+ maps lol

If at all possible, I would try to get arc in your 5-link. This would massively boost your damage. But I don't know if rerolling socket colors is possible since you are in SSF. If you have very few chromes I wouldn't risk losing golem compatible sockets.
Don't forget that more quality on an item means more chance of better results from Jewellers orbs and fusings.Yea I kinda went a bit crazy and spent nearly all of my colour changing orbs and the change number of links orbs on some random piece of gear and It ended up not working out and I spent ermm well rather a lot of them!
I still have some of the colour changers I think just not a a huge amount maybe 20-30? Can't remember exactly. I can maybe try getting the staff all blue I could use added lightning support then which I imagine will be a huge bump

Yea the chest armour was the last thing I got before I logged off last night. Haven't had a chance to mess with it yet! I will sort that part later.I imported your character to Path of Building and it seems like your cold and lightning resistances are negative: -16%. You have about 4.2k life+ES total, that should get you started on maps and get you through white maps at least. But you should get lightning and cold resistances both to 75% as quickly as possible. This is what is killing you. Maps can be done with your 4-link so the 5-link can wait.

When I finish work I'm just going to try and get rings with resistance / enchant gear I already have. My resistances were -1% for those two I thought! Still awful but not quite as bad.
I have been too focused on improving DPS / energy shield that I ignored the resistances. Didnt see to matter really until now
I'm thinking of rerolling to a new character but I'm not sure what. The Purifying flame miner build I started with is fun but it's such a glass cannon and it's becoming more frustrating to play than I would like. I'd like to try a CI/energy shield build for the first time maybe, and I know there are some Herald of Agony options there that should work well, but I think CI builds are generally pretty expensive? I haven't had any luck with decent drops yet.
Although I have had fun with the league and new atlas I'm already burnt out. Tried playing some maps today, and just can't force myself to play.
Has to be over 100+ hours easily. It was the grind to 32 watchstones that did me in. Kept having to run maps I hated.
Toxic Rain or Caustic Arrow Trickster are fairly tanky. As is Scourge Arrow Hyrri's Ire CI Trickster. Elemental Hit bow builds were also fairly tanky before now you need to give up some of the tankyness to have better damage (due to nerfs). Burning Arrow or Explosive Arrow Chieftain/Scion/Elementalist/Champion can be made tanky as well (9k life) but lack in speed.Are there any bow builds that are actually tanky/reliable for bossing? I wanna do one but I don't wanna be squishy.
