Nah , it requires more like ~ 10 ex in standard essence because you can get Atziri ' s disfavour for a cheap price . Atziri ' s disfavour is very rare in hardcore leagues and you pretty much have to build an atziri farmer yourself to obtain it . That ' s by the way another reason why spells in hardcore endgame are slightly better , spells rely less on weapon damage scaling . <| sep |> I feel the same but I don ' t think they act out of pity you know ? They are just trying to get something and if they can ' t find they move on . I believe most people these days are only after having fun like somebody to go to parties or dating and they don ' t really want to know anyone or personal struggles . But I still believe there ' s a small percentage of chance of getting friendships so I just keep trying . If you are trying , and I ' m , there ' s probably more people looking for it too , it ' s just hella hard to find .
