Accidentally left the Sasan fight as soon as I entered.
I never really engaged with mapping before this league, actually won my first fight against Sasan no issue, then literally two hours later he kidnaps another squad. As soon as I got in, I misclicked(apparently) and immediately went back through the portal... Live and learn, unfortunately lost 6 tier five mappers to learn my lesson.

If GGG is looking for minor QOL changes next patch/hotfix, can controller player toggle the UI that M&K players get?
I’ve just always enjoyed that layout more than the controller UI and I’ve never understood why controller players need a separate UI. In POE2 it’s very similar setups on both and it looks way more thematic.

Mind Stinger - The Best BAMA Quiver*
In Merc league, I became fixated on this special modifier: "Your Blink and Mirror Arrow Clones use your Gloves"
Because lightning BAMA is the best build in the game and I always push it in novel ways, I figured that surely there had to be some great uses for it. We'll be returning to some uses in the end. Here's the finished quiver:
https://preview.redd.it/9qrngsrku20h1.png?width=738&format=png&auto=webp&s=c3f2e3b7456e02db8dd223dfb90d6c87d369bb30
Crafting a quiver with that mod would've been relatively easy, since you could just fracture it. That's actually what I did in the league. The problem then was that I could only have one implicit mod - Crit chance, crit multi, attack speed or projectile speed, which is a somewhat underappreciated modifier but alas. I wanted triple synth.
Here's what you need to do to retrace my steps:
1) Buy a triple synth bow base that already had 5% increased attack speed (which is maximum for synth quivers) and a high crit chance ("t2" in this case, with the maximum being 40%) or crit multi (maximum is 30%).
2) Add a Gilded Fossil for style.
3) Scour it.
4) Use Orbs of Remembrance until you get 90+ strands.
5) Get a quiver that has the merc mod as the only prefix and slam an influenced prefix for it, using a Shaper's Exalted Orb, or Elder's, depending on which one is cheaper.
6) Recombinate the two quivers. 50/50 chance to get a triple synth base with your desired mod. This is much, much, much cheaper than making your own triple synth base from scratch and also you'll get memory strands.
7) Imprint for safety.
8) Use a Craicic Chimeral and a Black Morrigan to put a Hinekora's Lock on the item, hovering both Regal and Foulborn Regal orbs.
9A) If you got any resistance mod, use the Harvest bench to turn that resistance into lightning resistance, craft "prefixes cannot be changed" and do a Harvest add-remove for lightning. It can only add lightning damage. If this is high enough tier, craft "Can have three crafted mods" and "Cannot roll attack mods" and slam a Foulborn Exalted Orb. It can then only add a prefix and the prefix can only be bow damage or life, with a roughly 25% chance to get t1 or t2 bow damage.
9B) If you got a high enough tier of Damage With Bows, craft "prefixes cannot be changed" and do a Harvest add-remove for lightning.
10 - optional) Realize only now that your item's level is 85 which means it can't roll t1 bow damage and cry.
11) If you get high enough tiers of both bow damage and lightning damage, use an Orb of Unravelling that can massively bump up the mod tiers. In my case, t3 bow damage and t5 lightning damage both went up to t2.
12) Craft prefixes cannot be changed and do a Harvest add/remove for crit.
13A) If you got t1 crit multi, craft "Prefixes cannot be changed" again and do a second Harvest add/remove for crit OR craft "can have three crafted mods" and "prefixes cannot be changed" and hit a Veiled Exalted orb.
13B) If you got t1 crit chance, craft "Prefixes cannot be changed" again and do a second Harvest add/remove for crit.
14A) If you got two t1 crit mods: Craft attack speed, which was too expensive to get with Harvest because it costs lots of yellow juice and competes with projectile speed, which is nice but not worth a whole suffix spot.
14B) If you got t1 crit multi and a veiled mod: **If you unveiled attack and cast speed**, you can then craft 27% crit chance or 14% crit chance and a chance to gain frenzy charges or 16% crit chance and elemental damage if you've crit recently. Whatever you most like, essentially. I went with the frenzy chance myself, because I love charges. **If you unveiled a hybrid crit mod,** craft 12% increased attack speed.
\---
Now that the craft is done, what kinds of gloves could you use with the quiver for maximum benefit?

Especially the 5% variant you can get with a Volatile Vaal Orb. It makes it so each hit from your
minions has a chance to apply up to 15 stacks of Wither and therefore ramps up to make the enemies take up to 75% increased elemental damage. With enough attack speed, it ramps up fast - faster if your minions have Unholy Might. You might want to craft a different BAMA bow for this though, one with +1 socketed gem levels instead of elemental penetration.
Alternatively you can use the 4% variant with a +0.8% to attack crits corrupt, which is spicy.
IDEA 2: Tombfist
https://preview.redd.it/5qgyh3um230h1.png?width=1594&format=png&auto=webp&s=f8252e4414176ee754860da7117e8d56f0a9f0c9
These gloves give 10% increased attack speed, guaranteed Intimidate (which is tough to get as BAMA) and two abyssal sockets. The two abyssal sockets can be used for a funny interaction, where if you put in two Tecrod's Gazes, the bow clones get 160% increased crit chance, because both jewels give 40% per Murderous jewel affecting you, counting themselves.
IDEA 3: Custom Rares
https://preview.redd.it/0jyshbs5330h1.png?width=1355&format=png&auto=webp&s=34c996548383800bb072596a4009948947eb0b02
This one is a bit harder, but you can use rare gloves too. Here, the Projectile Speed affects how fast you blink and also now with how fast the clones' arrows reach my enemies.Attack speed is always generic, you can put anything cool in the abyssal socket including stuff like 8% attack speed if you've crit recently, a bit of crit multi, flat damages, all sorts of nice stuff.
Secondly, this character has a bow from Settlers League with the enchant "Increases and Reductions to Minion Damage also affect you at 150% of their value". Since my gloves have 59% increased minion damage, wielding the bow makes the minions double tap by gaining an additional 88% increased damage.
There are all sorts of other cool ways to use Eldritch implicits for the clones too, just a pity they can't gain Rage.
\---
In any case, this has been a fun craft and maybe in the future if a league goes particularly well, I might craft a superior all t1 version of this quiver and according to PoB gain... 6.9% more DPS. That would be nice.
\*RE: "Best BAMA Quiver\*": This is the best **unless** you desperately need the unveiled evasion and energy shield mod, or you are doing the poison variant or if you can't afford to sacrifice any glove mods. Price could also be a prohibiting factor, especially with this higher investment variant.
