What have RNG gods gifted you the best in POE ever?
This league i learned something new and brought me the best luck i've had in a long time (not considering a lucky 6-link in perandus).
Somehow I missed the recipe for the agnerod staves, that give the unique map. IIRC that was introduced in 2.1 and that totally slipped by me, most likely because Talisman is the only league i never played. During Perandus, Prophecy and even start Essence i saw people buying the staves in bulk, but never really checked why.
During the start of Essence i had 1 Agnerod drop. Even knowing there was something up with those, i still sold it (40+c while people in trade wanted to pay 25c, so i was happy). However i still sold it so fast i did some more research then i did before and found the answer: Vinktar Squar. Totally missed that recipe! was kinda bummed i sold that staff.
In the week after i found out, I found 4 more agnerod staves; in order: west, north east and then suddenly even south. No doubles, all in a week time. LUCKY ME!
Ran Vinktar Square with my brother. Flask dropped for me. Checked on POEtrade and saw they went for ~100c cheapest. Put mine up for 95c because i prefer fast sales for a bit less over having a full stash of nonsales. Insta sell. Got spammed insanely hard for that flask. Sold it to the first PM, which IMO is the best/honest thing to do. PM no 2 was a very honest guy who let me know i had the Physical roll on the flask and it was worth up to 7 ex......
So even though i F'd up with the flask sale, I'm still happy i ran a new map (and got challenge part), got a good drop and made some money. The luck on the staves however i the best dropluck is ever had, and that matters more then even the 5ex i missed out on.

I'm not fond of how you NEED the Anima Stone jewel
With Flame Golem enchant you get 88 damage(58 without) and can add 3 of these effects on top: 26.1 cast & attack speed, 87 crit and 11.6 phys dmg reduction or 304.5 flat life regen.

Elemental Equilibrium being so strong right now
Just wanted to say you guys do a lot of work, and have great synergy. I've been around with PoE off and on and I've never made it to end game because I'll be honest, there is a LOT to learn in this game.

Several players have thoughts about how to shape your Atlas in Path of Exile 2.5.1
I think the goal would be to run the maps and not kill the boss, to be honest I forgot a bit because I bought 20 shaped Ashen woods to start and built a base off that. As long as you don't kill the boss it shouldn't show up on your atlas.

The current chests in Path of Exile
I never looked to weapons at that time, so I can't say if it happened. Though if anything it should be easier now anyway thanks to mastercrafting.

ID depend on it for sketchy gear ok es and high HP Rolls
Golems were pretty weak as far as minions go, especially considering how difficult it was to get multiple golems compared to say, Spectres.
