Ritual City

Used

• Mobalytics — Ritual Guide (FearlessDumb0)18/25

  Track record3/5

  • +Long-form Ritual specialist guide — Tribute, Favour, deferral, tablets — not a one-off mention
  • −Still ships Distilled Emotion + Ritual advice after GGG removed waystone instilling in 0.4.0 (update hygiene miss)

  Evidence type4/5

  • +Primary written farm guide aimed at Ritual shoppers, not a news scrap or SEO rewrite
  • −No attached clear/sample maps or div-per-hour ledger in the parts we used

  Patch currency2/5

  • +Tribute-from-density / Favour shop / deferral loop still matches 0.5 Ritual
  • −Distilled Emotion tip contradicts GGG 0.4.0 — carved out as an unused part below
  • −Still says Favours “DOES NOT pause”, Spreading Darkness “four rituals”, Tempting Offers “extra Favours window”, and He Approaches “Audience” odds after those tips went stale

  Strategy fit5/5

  • +Explains why denser/harder packs raise Tribute for shopping
  • +Deferral + Favour pricing guidance maps to omen vs HH/MB shopping goals

  Specificity4/5

  • +Step-level altar / tablet / shop loop you can follow
  • −Weaker on 0.5 belt-hunt tablet sockets than Fubgun’s Ritual Belts VOD

  Stale · Distilled Emotion + Ritual tip

  • −Tip survived in a published guide after GGG removed waystone instilling in 0.4.0
  • −If followed in 0.5, it teaches a juice lever that no longer exists for waystones
  • −Conflicts with how 0.5 adds Delirium (mirrors / tablets / fog)
  • −No sample maps, no before/after shop data, no 0.5 retest

  Do not instil waystones for Ritual — removed in 0.4.0 → patch notes

  Stale · Favours UI does not pause tip

  • −Guide still warns “DOES NOT pause” after GGG made Ritual Rewards pause the game
  • −If followed, Build check invents a clear-before-shop panic that is no longer needed
  • −Conflicts with Session Board Build check (Chaos res / arena tankiness) and FAQ (Favours pauses)

  Ritual Rewards / Favours menu pauses since GGG 0.2.0 → patch notes

  Stale · Spreading Darkness four altars tip

  • −Guide still ranks Spreading Darkness as “four rituals guaranteed” after the node was reworked
  • −If followed, atlas path chases a removed altar-count effect
  • −Conflicts with Session Board atlas chip (unique-type bias / Tainted belts)

  Spreading Darkness is unique-type bias by Ritual (Tainted → belts), not four altars → patch notes

  Stale · Ritual tree altar-count framing

  • −“Altar count” framing survived after Spreading Darkness lost its four-altar effect
  • −If followed, City juiced HH/MB shoppers skip Traveller’s Woe Tainted and misread Spreading Darkness as density
  • −Conflicts with Session Board atlas body (Tainted Belts-slot bias / Traveller’s Woe)

  HH/MB Favour fishing paths Traveller’s Woe → Tainted + Spreading Darkness unique-type bias — not altar count → patch notes

  Ruled out · Deferred stock piles up from slow clears tip

  • −Misreads deferral (future-map discount shopping) as a slow-clear stockpile penalty
  • −If followed, Build check teaches the wrong gear/clear priority for juiced Ritual
  • −Fearless: Ritual types deal Chaos; deferred Favours reappear later
  • −Conflicts with Session Board Build check (Chaos res, not deferral stockpile)

  Deferral is intentional cross-map shopping; Build check is Chaos res for arena hits → patch notes

  Stale · Tempting Offers extra Favours window tip

  • −Guide still ranks Tempting Offers as “additional Favours window, going from two to three” after the notable reworked
  • −If followed, atlas path chases a removed shop-window count instead of stacking rerolls / reduced reroll cost
  • −Conflicts with Session Board atlas chip (+1 Favour reroll / 25% reduced reroll Tribute)

  Tempting Offers is +1 Favour reroll and 25% reduced reroll Tribute — not a third Favours window → patch notes

  Stale · He Approaches Audience-with-King tip

  • −Guide still ranks He Approaches as improving Audience with the King chances after the notable reworked
  • −If followed, atlas path chases removed invitation odds instead of Tribute difficulty from Magic/Rare revives
  • −Conflicts with Session Board atlas chip (40% Magic/Rare revived monsters)

  He Approaches is 40% increased Magic/Rare chance on revived Ritual monsters — not Audience with the King odds → patch notes

  Ruled out · Pack Size floors empty / contested tip

  • −Research nuance claimed Pack Size floors empty / contested while presets already asserted them
  • −If followed, agents drop Pack Size floors despite Tribute-from-density / pack-size guidance
  • −Conflicts with Session Board waystone preset (Pack Size 20 / Strict 30)

  Fearless names pack size among Tribute levers; Ritual City keeps Standard/Strict Pack Size floors → patch notes

  Shop / deferral / Chaos Build check + Pack Size Tribute lever still used; non-pausing Favours + slow-clear deferred-stock + empty-floor tips carved out

• YouTube — Fubgun Ritual Belts Farm (0.5)25/25

  Track record5/5

  • +Repeated league farming VODs that high-end players copy for money strats
  • +HH/MB chase via Ritual Favours treated as a discrete 0.5 farm — not a drive-by mechanic mention

  Evidence type5/5

  • +Primary gameplay: full farm recording in 0.5, not a wiki paraphrase
  • +Atlas / tablets / shop priorities visible while maps are actually run

  Patch currency5/5

  • +Framed for 0.5 HH/MB Favour shopping specifically
  • +Belt / deferral loop doesn’t rely on removed waystone Liquid Emotion instilling

  Strategy fit5/5

  • +Target loot is chase unique belts (HH / MB) shopped via Ritual Favours — not a Ritual-only belt class
  • +Juiced tablet approach matches our City 4-socket variant
  • +Calls Traveller’s Woe Tainted for Belts/Charms/Flasks slot bias — HH/MB fishing’s atlas keystone

  Specificity5/5

  • +Shows atlas + tablets + in-map Ritual decisions together
  • +Names HH/MB / deferral priorities while shopping

  Stale · Freedom of Faith pure-upside / no Favour Tribute tax tip

  • −FoF loadout teaching can read as free 2× rerolls without the Favour Tribute tax on the unique
  • −If followed, shoppers under-budget Tribute for omens / HH/MB buys under FoF
  • −Conflicts with Session Board tablets chip and loadout notes (FoF +10–15% Favour Tribute)

  FoF still doubles Favour rerolls, but Favours cost (10–15)% increased Tribute → patch notes

  City juiced FoF + reroll tablets still used; FoF Favour Tribute tax carved in from PoE2DB unique text

• Mobalytics — Fubgun Atlas / Ritual Belts (0.5)17/25

  Track record4/5

  • +Companion atlas to the same creator’s HH/MB Ritual Favour farm VOD — tree and video agree
  • −Multi-strat sheet — HH/MB Ritual variant is one among many, not a Ritual-only publication history

  Evidence type3/5

  • +First-party tree from the farmer running the VOD
  • −Static node list — no footage or shop samples on this page

  Patch currency5/5

  • +0.5 atlas set paired with the 0.5 HH/MB Ritual Favour video

  Strategy fit3/5

  • +Explicit HH/MB Ritual Favour tree variant to copy
  • −Most of the sheet is other farms — easy to grab the wrong tree

  Specificity2/5

  • +Named, copyable tree variants
  • −No Tribute / Favour / deferral write-up — atlas nodes only

  Ritual Belts atlas companion — tree variants for HH/MB Favour shopping; Expedition-tab Atlas Master line is a different farm

• Mobalytics — Fubgun Ritual Belts masters write-up19/25

  Track record4/5

  • +Same creator as the HH/MB Ritual Favour farm VOD and current atlas sheet
  • −Older profile page (Jun 2026) — still the clearest Ritual Belts master line in writing

  Evidence type3/5

  • +First-party notes beside the Ritual Belts tablet / waystone setup
  • −Static tip line — not a full master-loadout table

  Patch currency4/5

  • +0.5 Masters of the Atlas vocabulary (Jado + Partial Translations)
  • −Predates the Jul 2026 multi-strat atlas hub refresh

  Strategy fit5/5

  • +Names Jado + Partial Translations / Unforeseen Threats / Unexpected Missions for Ritual Belts
  • +Tablet-effect master path matches our Favour juice loop

  Specificity3/5

  • +Actionable three-node Jado core with Unexpected Missions as “also good”
  • −Does not spell a mandatory fourth point — left as flex

  Ritual Belts tab: Jado — Partial Translations, Unforeseen Threats; Unexpected Missions also good (fourth point flex)

• Maxroll — Ritual19/25

  Track record4/5

  • +Long-running PoE site whose staff pages usually track patch wording better than SEO blogs
  • +June 2026 Ritual page lists current Spreading Darkness unique-type text (not four altars)

  Evidence type4/5

  • +Primary staff write-up of Ritual atlas notables used to kill stale Fearless node tips
  • −Secondary vs a creator clear — no map footage or tablet loadout attached

  Patch currency4/5

  • +Spreading Darkness / Tempting Offers text matches PoE2DB for the current Ritual tree
  • −Not a dedicated 0.5 belt-farm economics guide

  Strategy fit4/5

  • +Tainted → Belts-slot bias on Spreading Darkness supports City juiced HH/MB Favour fishing
  • +Tempting Offers +reroll / reduced reroll Tribute matches City juiced Favour shopping
  • −No omen-budget vs HH/MB tablet split — can’t drive our two loadouts alone
  • −Does not call Traveller’s Woe Tainted — Ritual-type preference still needs Fubgun / PoE2DB

  Specificity3/5

  • +Per-notable effect lines (Spreading Darkness slot table; Tempting Offers +reroll)
  • −No sockets, no sample shop outcomes

  Stale · Area level 80 / T16 for expensive Omens tip

  • −Pre-hotfix area floor kept circulating after GGG moved the omen pool to 79+
  • −Following it forces unnecessary T16 / +area for Omens that already roll on T15
  • −Conflicts with Session Board loadout note (79+ / T15 enough)

  Chase Omens at 79+ after 0.5.1 Hotfix 6 — T16 not required for that pool → patch notes

  Stale · Rite of the Nameless ~6-map chain tip

  • −Collapses the Ongoing Chants +1 into the default chain length
  • −Players without that atlas node plan a path one map too long
  • −Conflicts with Session Board prep bullet (5 maps / Ongoing Chants)

  Base Rite is 5 maps per GGG 0.5.0 — 6 only with Ongoing Chants → patch notes

  Stale · Bring Forth always Summoning Circle altar tip

  • −Bare “altar on Summoning Circle” framing collapses a 15% chance into a guaranteed Build check spike
  • −If followed, players expect every Bring Forth map to spawn an extra Summoning Circle boss
  • −Conflicts with Session Board atlas chip (15% altar on Summoning Circle)

  Bring Forth is 15% chance for Ritual Altars on Summoning Circles — not a guaranteed altar placement → patch notes

  Staff Ritual tree text — Spreading Darkness unique-type bias + Tempting Offers +reroll / reduced-Tribute; Bring Forth chance grounded via PoE2DB; Favour / deferral vocabulary

• GGG — 0.2.0 (Ritual Rewards menu pauses)Official

  Ritual Rewards / Favours menu pauses the game

• GGG — 0.5.1 Hotfix 6 (Ritual omen area floor)Official

  Chase Omens generate at area level 79+ (was 80+)

• GGG — 0.5.0 (Rite of the Nameless map count)Official

  Ruled out · Foretold Proliferation = increased Favours tip

  • −Collapses the Proliferation copy-mechanic into a single preferred Favour mod
  • −Players path “Foretold Proliferation” as if it were +Favours instead of picking good Foretold map mods
  • −Conflicts with Session Board prep bullet (Prefer Foretold → +Favours / +Tribute / reduced reroll)

  Foretold Proliferation spreads a Rite map’s mod to later maps — +Favours is one selectable Foretold mod, not the Proliferation system itself → patch notes

  Rite of the Nameless is a series of 5 maps (base chain); Rite maps roll extra Ritual modifiers
