🔥 Completing the Arduous Atlas Challenge

The host describes how they collected fragments through maps and invites, running them to complete the challenge. Special attention is given to the boss fight mechanics, including a preference for Polaric over other bosses due to the lack of an invulnerability phase.

💀 Eater of Worlds Battle and Disenchanting Items

The host continues their Path of Exile adventure by tackling the Eater of Worlds. After defeating this boss, they inspect the loot but are disappointed by the low value of items like 'Inextricable Fate,' which are only worth two chaos orbs. The host decides to disenchant many of the less valuable items for dust, shifting focus to Searing Exarch invites. As they fight through Searing Exarch challenges, they note some strange gameplay moments, including randomly healing through damage and unexpectedly dying to mines. Despite setbacks, the host reaches a milestone of 2,746 points and reviews the shields, boots, and other equipment obtained from the battles, deciding to disenchant anything worth under 5,000 gold to conserve resources.

This method has been fruitful, allowing them to continue collecting valuable items. They mention their polaric invites, bought for 10c each, which they are using to finish the 'Inciting Invitations' challenge. They also discuss their farming setup, which includes sending boats every 31 minutes to maximize resources.
