Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this thing called “Divination Distillate” in Path of Exile, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I heard about this flask that could potentially boost your loot drops and give you some extra defense, sounded too good to be true, right?
First, I went out and got myself one of these flasks. It wasn’t too hard to come by, thankfully. It says right on the tin: “Refills as you kill monsters” and “Consumes 20 of 40 Charges on use.” So far, so good. I equipped it in my belt and started whacking some monsters. The flask started filling up as I was mowing down those beasts, pretty neat!
But here’s the catch, I had to figure out how to use this thing effectively. It’s a hybrid flask, meaning it restores both life and mana. I thought, “Alright, maybe I can use it when I’m low on health or mana.” I tried that, and yeah, it gave me a bit of a boost, but it didn’t feel like I was really getting the most out of it.
Then I remembered reading something about keeping it active at full life. That’s when it hit me – the mastery! There’s this mastery that lets you use Divination Distillate even at full life. So I grabbed that mastery, and boom, things started to change. Now I could pop the flask whenever I wanted, as long as it had enough charges.
- Step 1: Get the flask – This was the easy part.
- Step 2: Equip and kill – Filled it up by just playing the game.
- Step 3: Experiment with usage – Tried using it at low health/mana, but it wasn’t optimal.
- Step 4: Grab the mastery – This was the game-changer.
- Step 5: Keep it active – Used the “Master Surgeon” notable to keep flask effect up if I reach full life after using it.
But I still needed a way to keep the flask effect up consistently. Someone mentioned something called “Master Surgeon.” It’s a notable that keeps your flask effects going if you hit full life after using them. Perfect! I grabbed that, and now I could maintain the Divination Distillate buff for most of its duration, as long as I was hitting full life every now and then.
Some folks also talked about using “Petrified Blood” with this flask. The idea is that Petrified Blood prevents you from recovering life above a certain point, so you can keep using the flask. I gave it a shot, but honestly, it didn’t feel like it was making a huge difference. Maybe I need to tweak my build a bit more, I dunno.
Getting Tricky
Then there was this other crazy idea of using a unique flask that prevents mana gain to keep the flask effect up all the time. I didn’t go down that rabbit hole yet, but it sounds pretty wild. Maybe one day I’ll give it a try.
So, after all this messing around, I think I’ve finally got a decent handle on this Divination Distillate thing. It’s definitely a cool flask, and with the right setup, it can be pretty powerful. I’m still experimenting with different ways to use it, but for now, I’m happy with the results. If you’re looking for a way to boost your loot and get a little extra defense, I’d say give it a shot!
It might take some trial and error, but hey, that’s half the fun of Path of Exile, right? Just remember to grab that mastery, and consider using Master Surgeon. Those two things are key to making this flask work its magic.
