The interface supports it. I've only run one Grand Heist so I couldn't check if it was just an interface bug.

Stopped playing for a bit, making some progress again. The interface supports picking the same rogue for multiple skills but you still get charged twice the fee so there's no point in doing that. I'm just wondering if you can leave one of the skills unfilled and still have it covered by a rogue hired for a different slot.

I've been enjoying the league, although I've had less time to play than I would've liked. I enjoy the heists as a chill secondary map thing.
I got what the trade site tells me is a lucky corrupt on a Cold Iron Point dagger. I'd like to build around it instead of sell it, but I'm not sure how.
I was thinking some sort of poison Blade Vortex + Herald of Agony but have never tried a poison spell build. (Kinda why I want to.) And more to the point, I'm not smart enough to weigh under what circumstances this is better than a real weapon.

It's for poison BV. That is by far the most common use of CIP. 2x CIP is already the default weapon for those builds, so it is certainly better than a real weapon.
I love the heists in theory but the execution leaves much to be desired. The league has been almost a complete flop for me between the endless bugs and the fact that none of the new skills really cut the mustard.

Had a ridiculous crafting experience today. I wanted to get a new amulet so I bought a base and prepared my inventory full of fossils and (chaotic) resonators. Forgot that my item was still normal (white) so I slapped a random (crit multi) essence on it to turn it rare just for crafting and I hit the jackpot on my first try.
Incredibly hard to beat for my build (Mjolnir+cast on crit shock nova). Was looking for the level to lightning gems mod and got all this useful stuff extra. The cherry on top was not getting any resists either, because I already had a perfectly balanced wise oak flask.
Crafting cost: 1 screaming essence of scorn (and 4 chaos for the base item).

That is a pretty damned sexy amulet, Rusten.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

I've got 1740h worth of playtime, but I'm not every going to play again realistically. If anyone plays in standard rather than leagues, I'd be happy to hook you up with what I've got. I was reasonably wealthy at one point, dont know if what I have is still worth anything.

I actually can't tell if this is a troll or serious.

It sounds serious from the Reddit comments though, so I guess it is.

Found it elsewhere in the news, so yeah, looks like it's legit. Crazy.

The next expansion, Echoes of the Atlas, was announced today:
Very excited to hear that they've rebalanced all 19 ascandencies and something like 40 skill gems.
