2 days, 1 for rage quit… the other for glory. That’s with grim internals ofc. Judging by now that you guys can’t do it with GI anymore (unless playing the previous patch) I would say around a week for a sane human bean.
Hope to god I never have to do that again. Na-haha.
takes a looong time, legit seems more rare than other “mismatching” dmg prefixes like fire or acid on pierce weap
wouldn’t even be surprised if in my youth i’d tossed a tyrant slicer aside in the AoM past simply because it wasn’t pierce prefix/tyrant hadn’t been highlighted at all before as the one you wanted vs pierce build = pierce dmg = Heart Piercing or SInister
That could have been here the exact possibility as well, I started to care waaaay to late for Tyrants prefix oh well one day or another… thanks for sharing your tyrants dermapteran slicer story, guys!
I didn’t get GDIA until about a year after playing my first character, a Belgo Blademaster, and was back before the weighted affix drops and all the posted builds were purples only. Been hunting the Tyrant’s slicer off and on since the affix change and it haunts my dreams to know that I probably missed one.
I’m also convinced that when (if) I do get one, it’ll be the level 84 version.

ngl, this is really an annoying “feature” in terms of endgame grind/finalizing and maxing out a build
and i know it’s possible to rule them out by making database changes, so understand even less why it’s a thing - tho i’m unsure if it has any wider negative/unintended impacts when making that change
God forbid the horrors now farming Kaisan’s amus and Anasteria’s pants stories might come on par with Tyran’s derp slicers since GI is gone (I play mp so don’t want risk with unstableness of it).
Perhaps the choice might be weird, but as second option to a Tyrants slicer, wouldnt lacerator girdle be best for pretty reliable DR? You avoid WC which costs lots of skill points and AA interruption nevertheless you will wear a belt giving close to zero additional value except for DR
If what we’re talking about now is “what should I have done prior to getting Tyrant’s?” then another viable option for 10%+ DR is the Kymon’s Will augment. This is of course assuming Kymon was sided with at least once and at least one of that augment was purchased.
It’s not a bad option. It’s a meta belt for a lot of Bleeding builds. Problem is that if you are a pierce build you are wasting a slot that gives +1 to mastery skills and flat and %damage for a belt that gives you nothing but DR. But if you are phys build it’s not bad, but again, conflicting with Gladiator’s Distinction which is amazing together with Scales devotion (and just a very strong belt for 2handed builds).
Coming back a last time in this topic… managed to get a Puncturing of the Abyss, due to the reduced RR % (which isnt that big a deal but still) this doesnt seem to far fall behind Tyrants or am I missing something?
of the Abyss might be lowkey better because it provides %RR that doesn’t exist for pierce otherwise. And it also has some damage reduction values. I think it might be quite decent actually.
