Crafting Guide: Lightning Cluster Jewels
Introduction
This guide will teach you how to craft Lightning Large Cluster Jewel to be used with Lightning Conduit, Lightning Strike or any other lightning skill!
Crafting in Path of Exile can be extremely complex and rather daunting for new players. The video below outlines the most basic information you’ll need before diving into crafting specific items.
The Finished Item
The finished item that you should have at the end of this process heavily depends on how much currency you want to sink into them and what the specific requirements you want for your build are.
The Base
The base we suggest using is an iLvL 68-74 8 passive Large Cluster Jewel with “increased Lightning Damage”
Crafting Process
The crafting process is pretty simple. You want to grab as much Harvest material as you can (some of each) as we will mainly be using reforge life, reforge lightning, and reforge cold to craft our jewels
You want to focus on getting the following notables on your jewels to maximize profit and/or useability for your build:
Sadist
Doryani’s Lesson
Stormrider
The easiest way to guarantee to get Doryani’s Lesson is to use reforge Life but it is also normally the most expensive, You can use reforge lightning but after extensive testing Reforge cold can actually hit the mods with about the same accuracy and also gives a higher chance to not hit some of the Notables we don’t want.
While you are crafting these we suggest that you price check any Jewels with at least 2 Notables because they will normally sell for more than the base itself if the notables are used.
If you hit all three then you are good to go! If you only hit 2 out of 3 thanks to the lower cost of exalted orbs you can easily slam the jewel and see if you can hit the last one now!
In Conclusion
- Buy iLvl 68-74 base
- Buy Harvest Crafting Materials
- Hit up that harvest bench until you get something you want!
Final Notes
As much as I love making guides, it is very crucial in a game like Path of Exile that you play the game the way you enjoy playing it. This guide details my most effective approach to crafting the best items.
I hope you found the guide useful and I wish you all many Divine Orb drops!
