0:00Yo guys, welcome to the video. This is
0:01Josh or Milky and in today's video we're
0:03going to be talking about the latest
0:05changes to the temple. Now, I was
0:06deliberate in making this video, but
0:08then I realized I've made all these
0:09temple videos so far to try and stay on
0:11top of what's going on. So, I'll be
0:13damned if I'm not going to keep doing
0:14it. So, GGG did make some big changes.
0:16There was a
0:17there was a podcast between Zizaran,
0:20Mark, and Jonathan and in that podcast
0:22we saw them be shown what I imagine. We
0:25don't know what exactly what they
0:26showed, but I think they were shown a
0:27temple just based on what Mark said
0:29prior to the image coming up. And they
0:31did laugh about it and they were like,
0:32"Okay, we've got to go fix this." Also,
0:34Mark was joking about the temple ruining
0:37his Christmas.
0:38So, we're all Grinches.
0:41And you know, did seem to show a little
0:43bit of contempt to the mechanic which
0:46you know,
0:47I I imagine it was a bit tongue-in-cheek
0:48because Mark seems more often to be like
0:51the rational one in there. He's like,
0:53"We'll deal with it or I will figure it
0:54out. We'll make it good. We'll make it
0:56happen. We'll keep making changes." And
0:57I hope that they take that approach with
0:59temple. Though, I know a lot of people
1:01dislike it, but there is a lot of people
1:03that really do like it and they don't
1:04just like it because it drops a ton of
1:06divine orbs or dropped a ton of divine
1:08orbs. It is
1:10for a lot of people the puzzle aspect of
1:11it, the board building aspect of it, the
1:12progression aspect of it of each run
1:14going further than the last, trying to
1:16fight against the game, getting
1:17medallions to help you go further, then
1:19losing stuff, rebuilding it. For some
1:20people that is a enjoyable thing, right?
1:23Much like there are many mechanics in
1:25Path of Exile 1 that not everyone likes.
1:27There will be mechanics in this game
1:28that not everyone likes. It just stands
1:30out a little bit because there's less
1:31mechanics. So, we don't need to remove
1:33temple. It's in a better state now. But,
1:36what did they actually do? They finally
1:37removed the lock medallion. So, the lock
1:39medallion was the culprit for basically
1:40everything that happened last week. If
1:42you have something in your temple,
1:45it must be connected to the start,
1:47right?
1:48For it to exist, it must connect to your
1:49start. There can't be like floating
1:51rooms, which means this can't be removed
1:54when something's destabilized or at
1:55least that was we're going to be doing a
1:57bit of a history lesson. This was last
1:58league, right? So that prevents So that
2:00means this was the only thing that could
2:01be removed. So in the past, if you
2:02locked this, then nothing prior to it
2:05could be removed, which is what you
2:06know, it's it's it's obviously quite
2:08intuitive. That's what birthed the snake
2:10strategy. This league we lost that
2:12ability because they made it so that
2:14instead of it saying, "Okay, if you lock
2:17this,
2:19we can't touch it." Now instead it would
2:21delete one of your rooms and turn it
2:23into a path. It would just pick a random
2:24room if it didn't have enough. But there
2:26was else also a work around for this
2:28that we found. Um
2:30and that was if you had enough rooms
2:33that were we called them bait rooms, if
2:36you had enough bait rooms, which is to
2:38say it's like a vulnerable room. It's a
2:39room of like chain length one, you can
2:41think of it as,
2:42then it would prioritize removing them
2:45rooms before turning your other rooms
2:47into paths. So if you had enough bait
2:49rooms, then you would preserve your path
2:52with the lock medallion or even without
2:54the lock medallion in a lot of cases
2:56because more often than not if you've
2:57got seven loose rooms and one of them is
3:00your chain, of course, then that's a one
3:02in five to delete your chain room,
3:04right? So often 20% of the time you
3:06lose, 80% you win. And then you can
3:08extrapolate that to the full size of the
3:09temple and you're going to do all right.
3:11You're going to build out your temple
3:12even without locks.
3:13Um
3:14until you get to like 50 or 40 rooms and
3:17then you're just going to be playing a
3:19two and fro with the game and and it's
3:20not going to be a good time. So that's
3:22kind of the state of the snake strat.
3:24You can still do it, but it's going to
3:25be miserable for a lot of it cuz you're
3:26going to be going up and down and up and
3:27down and up and down. It's going to take
3:29you many, many more temples to
3:31grow the snake and um and and it's going
3:33to fluctuate a ton. I'll probably be
3:35quite frustrating in the process.
3:38So that's what the
3:39uh Doryani's Machinarium removal means.
3:42And also they removed uh they reduced
3:43the amount of destabilization
3:45uh
3:46reduction that you could get on the
3:48tree. It went from two to one.
3:49And I estimate So we don't know for
3:51certain, but before it destabilized
3:53roughly 10% of your temple, with this it
3:55should now be instead of your temple
3:57divided by 10, it should be your temple
3:59divided by 8.2, which equals one or two
4:02more rooms destabilized every single
4:04round, which is again when you get into
4:06those big temple sizes quite hard to
4:08deal with. What do I think of these
4:10changes before we get into what I'm
4:11doing now? I think they should have been
4:12way more forceful at the start, but they
4:14didn't do that and they didn't remove
4:15snaking despite saying that they'd
4:18prevented it. They attempted to
4:20but failed. And then there was another
4:22patch after that
4:24which once again failed to remove
4:25snaking, and then another patch after
4:27that patch after that which failed to
4:29remove snaking, and then another patch
4:31which still
4:33has not really removed snaking. So I'm
4:35I'm finding it hard to kind of interpret
4:36what GGG are trying to do here, but at
4:39least in this state it makes it much
4:40harder to get a room size that could be
4:42considered a tier one issue as they
4:44described it. But that this could be you
4:46could have still let people get to 60
4:47rooms, but of course lower the amount of
4:50loot rather than cap it at 40 rooms.
4:52There's many ways to do it. You could
4:53have shrunk the grid. Anyway, this is
4:55what they're doing. I think right now
4:57they're just trying to make it so it's
4:58not a problem for the rest of the league
4:59because people are just fed up with it.
5:01Except me.
5:03And then a couple of others new bay
5:05has has been in our corner the whole
5:06time as well. Some people like temple
5:08whether whether you like it believe it
5:09or not some people like temple. All
5:11right, so let's talk about what exactly
5:13I'm doing in the temple now and we're
5:16actually not try I I kind of broken it
5:18but only temporarily things. So don't
5:20tell Mark just yet, but there is a very
5:23strong farmer strategy that I have
5:25planned out and it's been doing very
5:26well for me netting me more than 10
5:28divines per temple, but not in raw
5:30divines in temple currency. So I'm not
5:33messing with the economy too much, but
5:35just bear in mind if a lot of people do
5:36this, it will obviously not be as good
5:39as it is right now, but as long as the
5:40currency
5:41is desirable, it should be all right.
5:43And if you like the temple then it's an
5:45way of doing it. It is not a zero
5:46rushing. If you want to a zero-rush,
5:48uh keep going in the video and I'll show
5:50you how I like to do that. But, this is
5:51going to be what we're calling the
5:53Hydra. I don't know, we like to be
5:54dramatic, give stuff names. You have the
5:55snake, chop off one head, six more will
5:58grow in its place. And the idea of this
5:59temple
6:01is uh let me go through it quickly. So,
6:03we have five smithy chains, five snake
6:06heads, and then a sixth that starts with
6:09a generator, and that's going to power
6:10the smithy heads. And they're going to
6:12be at level four, and then behind that
6:14we're going to have another five. So, in
6:16total, we have 10 smithies, five of
6:18which are level four. And the
6:19interesting thing about the level four
6:20one is that it makes the boss drop
6:22additional infusers. So, this room by
6:24default will drop infusers when you
6:26complete it, and this will make the boss
6:27drop them, too. And uh that means you're
6:30going to get 15 infusers per run with a
6:3315% chance to duplicate any that you
6:35drop with the uh node here.
6:38It's called Riches of the Empire. So,
6:42yeah, we're going to get a lot of
6:43currency from that. We're going to drop,
6:44you know, either Vaal Arcanist infusers,
6:46Vaal Armours infusers, Blacksmith
6:47infusers, Catalysing Flame infusers.
6:49These are 105 exalts, these are 80, I've
6:53been selling these for 100 even. Um
6:55these 62, again, I've been selling these
6:57for like 70 or even 80. And then the
6:59Vaal Arcanist I rarely sell for
7:00anything. So, 75% of the time we're
7:02making good money. Um and uh we get 15
7:06procs on that. So, I just just ballpark
7:08maths, it's like what, 12 divines, 10 to
7:1012 divines per run in value, guaranteed
7:14as well. That's the important part of
7:15this. It's not like before where we
7:16might drop a few divines. This is
7:17guaranteed. You just go in and click on
7:19them, which in a in a way makes it less
7:21fun, cuz it's kind of you know what
7:22you're getting, you're going to grab it,
7:23you get out. Um which is why I'm I don't
7:26know if I'm going to continue with this
7:27just cuz
7:28as much as people like to think that I'm
7:30doing this for the divines, I just like
7:31finding ways to make this thing good,
7:34and this is a way to do it.
7:36Um if you need proof that I don't only
7:38do this for the currency, I did this
7:40before anyone realized that it dropped
7:41currency last league, so that
7:44I can say it to the
7:45No, I can say it forever.
7:47I just I I don't know. I like I like
7:49figuring out ways to make this thing
7:52interesting, good, and valuable. Um and
7:55this is one way to do it. So, if you'd
7:56like to copy this, I will put
7:59I mean, the description alone should be
8:00enough, right? Six smithy chains. The
8:02goal in terms of destabilization So, how
8:04are we counteracting destabilization
8:05with this technique? And it's that we
8:08want to make it so that our smithy
8:09chains we have six chains, and we're
8:11only going to destabilize up to six
8:12rooms every time, not even six most of
8:14the time, depending on your temple size.
8:16So, as long as most of our chains end in
8:18different rooms, whatever we end up
8:19getting from the the draw,
8:23we should be able to extend the heads of
8:25our snakes somehow, right? If we lose
8:28this armory, well, we can replace it.
8:30It's a bad example right now for me cuz
8:32I have three armories on the end.
8:33Ideally, you'd have different things on
8:34the end, right? So, let's assume this
8:35alchemy labs on the end. This means I
8:37can place a armory or a thaumaturge. If
8:40this was If this wasn't here, then I
8:42could place a barracks.
8:44I could place a barracks there, right? I
8:45could place a barracks here. If I had a
8:47barracks already down, I could place a
8:48spymaster. You see what we're going for,
8:50right? You want them to end in different
8:52rooms that all have different things
8:54that can connect to them, so that
8:55whatever you end up getting can go on
8:57the end of the snakes, and then you'll
8:58preserve these very lucrative rooms
9:01indefinitely. Now, you have to be
9:02careful. So, this chain right here,
9:04you'll see I have this corruption
9:05chamber. I can't run this at level
9:06three. I could obviously level it up and
9:08then run it, and I I'd get a you know,
9:10the the archite- architects' orb or
9:12whatever it's called. Um but that would
9:14turn this into a path, which would then
9:15loop these rooms. So, be careful. Um I I
9:18will try and figure out a way to um make
9:20this so I can Well, what you would
9:22basically do is you you'd want your
9:23longest chain, so it would be whichever
9:26one you make the longest over here, to
9:28end in a way where you could place any
9:30of these rooms that you get, so you
9:31could then level them up, and then uh
9:33they destabilize, but it wouldn't be
9:35with end of the world because um they
9:36wouldn't cause any loops. Um bit more of
9:39a complicated strategy.
9:41I would just recommend rushing Aziri to
9:42most people at this point, but if you
9:44are someone that enjoys the tempo and
9:45building it and and having that kind of
9:47puzzles to solve every round, this is
9:49definitely that because you have to
9:50figure out exactly where you putting
9:51stuff. You always want to think about
9:52how much of a buffer you have behind
9:54your smithies. This one for example has
9:55three, this one has three, this one has
9:57one, this one only has one, this one
9:59only has one. So, I'd say, you know,
10:01this is these are all quite vulnerable
10:02right now, so I need to work on them
10:04getting a buffer to my smithies because
10:06those are the things that are going to
10:07give me money.
10:09As for Aziri, um this is what I like to
10:11go for. I will build a uh I would fill
10:14out the sides with the reward rooms
10:17because it basically narrows the temple
10:20and it means that the Aziri and the
10:21architects are more likely to spawn um
10:24one away from whatever path you build
10:25down the middle, right? They're going to
10:27spawn most likely along this path.
10:29So, then you're one room away at any
10:31given time from connecting to either the
10:34uh Aziri reward chamber or the architect
10:36himself.
10:37Um now, bear in mind these are very
10:39valuable though, these rooms, so you
10:40definitely want to leave yourself the
10:41opportunity to run them and that is what
10:43you'll use these two inner columns for.
10:45So, put just 18 garbage rewards on the
10:48outside to narrow your temple and then
10:50put any good ones on here and then you
10:51will always be one room away from
10:53connecting to
10:55the architect or the sacrificial chamber
10:57and you can also still have enough room
11:00to level up any rooms to level three in
11:02order to, you know,
11:04get any value out of those rooms. And
11:05this is very fun as well. I actually
11:06kind of like the puzzle of the Aziri one
11:08because you want one, you want to do
11:10Aziri every other temple, you run the
11:12architect to get the room, then you run
11:13the room to get Aziri, right? So, you'll
11:15go um
11:16one without Aziri and then one with and
11:18then it's very fun to the the at the
11:20baseline you should be able to do that,
11:21you should be able to do Aziri every
11:22run, but it's also fun to try and
11:24extract the most amount of value out of
11:26the other rooms that you get because it
11:27should be a given almost, if you have
11:29this set up, that you're doing Aziri
11:31every other run. So you'd be the like
11:33performance check out that at that point
11:35is how much money are you getting out of
11:37the other rooms that you draw, which is
11:39I actually quite enjoy and and I might
11:40go back to a zero rushing
11:43because this just I just don't like
11:45running and clicking the chest over and
11:46over again. Even though it makes like
11:48when I when I have the crystals like if
11:50if you just take the hour that I run
11:53if you just take the hour that I run 60
11:54crystals I make at least 100 divines in
11:57that hour. It's disgusting. But
11:59obviously those prices may crash with
12:00this. If you were doing this and you
12:02learn this about from stream from me I
12:03am sorry, but I did feel like I've made
12:06temple videos this whole time and and I
12:08I kind of didn't want to gatekeep it,
12:10but you know, I don't know it's a
12:11catch-22. Either I gatekeeper and then I
12:13don't feel like I'm doing my
12:14responsibility on my YouTube
12:16or I or I do and then I feel like I'm
12:18doing you guys dirty. I might maybe
12:20doing this and getting a lot of money
12:21out of it, but
12:22maybe there's enough to go around.
12:24Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this video. I
12:26will one of us will die. Either temple
12:27dies first or I die first. One of us is
12:29going
12:30>> [laughter]
12:30>> One of us is going. But yeah, I I love
12:33this game I got to admit. And maybe you
12:34guys think I'm a nuisance for for just
12:37hammering away there no matter what just
12:38trying to find something cool, but I
12:40just I don't know. It's it's it's a
12:42problem to solve and and enjoyable one
12:44to solve despite And you know what
12:46honestly in a lot of ways the
12:47developers, you know, constantly pushing
12:49back
12:50it makes it a little bit more fun as
12:52well. Even though that's maybe childish
12:54or whatever, but it it does make it more
12:55fun as well. Anyway, I'll see you in the
12:56next video. Toodles.
