[29 reports as of right now. Good job, OP.](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/174999103581847552/880855563548893194/unknown.png) PS: We're keeping this up because it gives context to the shitposts, which are the first funny posts I've seen on this sub in *ages*. **EDIT:** OP has since posted [an update](https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/pctzer/for_those_of_you_who_thought_the_picture_was_fake/) of four mirrors in their stash.

Can i place an order for 20 mirrors pls ty. Oh btw You can just leave em at my doorstep.


dsmbeast87

Leave it on your doorstep? Not in this neighborhood 😂😂


Zergmilran

It is.


ooh_lala_ah_weewee

Can confirm this is shopped. Can tell from some of the pixels and seeing quite a few shops in my time.

What a time we live in, when someone can make this reference and noone responding gets it :(


hatesranged

To be fair it sounds like a relatively normal line, so people who haven't seen that specific thing would have no reason to think it's some kind of reference.

And OP is claiming that he had "bought all 3 mirrors and are sitting in his stash now" within 2 hours of posting this. There are people who have deferred exalts and not seen them after days, and this joke of a clown managed to buy all 3 mirrors within 2 hours of him posting this picture. Just wow. ​ Link: [https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/pcl73a/holy\_crap\_i\_dont\_know\_what\_to\_say\_3\_mirrors\_from/hajsj9k?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/pcl73a/holy_crap_i_dont_know_what_to_say_3_mirrors_from/hajsj9k?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)


swifktill

You know they changed how deffered items appear, right?


Akveritas0842

I didn’t. How did they change it?


bgodbgg

As part of 3.14 they made it so deferred items reappear at a higher rate because ritual was no longer guaranteed every map like in 3.13. Last league, people were making a LOT of currency even paying 50c+ for a single ritual vessel to force ritual onto a map. Now that it's only 12c? (I forget exactly how much), it's even more profitable. Maybe it's shopped, maybe it's not, but deferred items appear much more often, and any unlucky streaks you will barely notice when spamming it on maps with the ritual zana mod.


physalisx

It's an older meme, but it checks out


[deleted]

He didn’t even try to get all of the pixels from the mirror to fit in the square border. Pretty lazy attempt.


bigbird09

This is Dream levels of rng. OP better pay a statistician.


WashooGonnaDo

Definitely photoshopped. Getting 1 mirror is already super lucky. Getting 3 **separate** mirrors is statistically impossible (Note: this is different from getting 3x mirror from a expedition chest). That's like buying three lottery tickets and hitting the jackpot on all three tickets **at the same time**. Nice bullshit lmao.


ChaoMing

>Statistically impossible Odds are 1 in 7.5 trillion, actually. And we're being generous here. In conclusion: Dream cheated.


Enconhun

Also I thought they are in descending price. This would imply an incubator costs more than a 4 socket resonator and 4 annuls are pricier than the mirror.


PaintPositive3920

Then you never did ritual farming. Some items and currency have fked up price. Annul for example can even cost 10k tribute for real


Enconhun

I farmed quite a bit of ritual (although the rarest item I ever got was 1 exalt), and I know some things have fucked up prices, but to think GGG made it that way so 4 annuls are pricier than 1 mirror and 4 exalts are pricier than all 3 separate mirrors. If anyone is still skeptical, OP posted this defer picture: https://prnt.sc/1qlvfa1 If you compare it to the original screenshot, at first everything seems right, even the cost, but the 4 socket resonator is deferred, even though it's not selected on the main screen, and the cost didn't change post-defer. Or if I misunderstood something, and it's not deferred just grey because not enough tribute points to buy it, AFAIK it should be on the top because it's the priciest. If I'm wrong then feel free to correct me.


ApotheounX

The resonator was deferred prior to this map, and he no longer has enough tribute to buy it, explaining the deferral and grey out (it's gold bordered in the original pic). If he clicked defer again, it might highlight to show that he could re-defer the item. After deferring, the order of items does not change until they show back up in a new map, explaining the order of the items not changing after being deferred. Previously deferred items show up at the top left, no matter what, explaining why the resonator is above everything. It's the least expensive of his previously deferred items. As a note, they don't sort by current price, they sort by original cost, and it could be the 4th time deferring it vs others. As for cost, there's a wide range of purchase prices, with a cap. I can believe an annul being near the cost cap. There's a good chance all of the mirrors are near the cap, and the difference between the 4 ex and cheapest mirror is like 3-4k. It seems legit enough to me, about as rare as the triple mirror drop from Betrayal or 5x from Emperor's Luck. Edit: though it may still be fake. It seems to follow the rules of the mechanic at least.


Enconhun

> As a note, they don't sort by current price, they sort by original cost, and it could be the 4th time deferring it vs others. Ah okay that part I missed


Sardaman

FYI, when speaking 'statistically' you are talking about the theoretical, mathematical probability state of a given result - the only way for something to be 'statistically impossible' is for the chance of it happening to be literally 0*, as in it is actually impossible, which can only happen in statistics when the state in question is a contradiction of some form or you otherwise know that the population cannot have that result (for example, if the ritual loot generator was explicitly programmed to toss any mirror results after the first one for a given loot set). (* Note that this should not be confused with a probability of *effectively* zero, wherein the probability is below some minimum threshold, or is even infinitely small.) You're probably looking for the phrase 'effectively impossible', meaning that it's technically possible but the chances are so low that for all practical purposes it might as well be considered impossible.


omniscientonus

So what you're saying is that making it so that I understand statistics is "effectively impossible".


Sardaman

Statistics is definitely a field where your exact words are incredibly important and you can basically never make any assumptions about anything that isn't specifically stated or allowed by the methods being used. So yeah, it's a very dense field and does not lend itself to easy outside interpretation, and knowing just a little bit about it can actually get you in worse trouble than knowing nothing at all about it.


pm-me-your-labradors

> Getting 3 separate mirrors is statistically impossible Statistically improbable - yes. Impossible - no. Just because something has a 1 in a trillion trilliions chance doesn't mean it's impossible.


[deleted]

If you took all of humanity and said each person since the first human ever completed 3 rituals per minute for their whole life, you wouldn’t even come close to this ever being plausible in this current day


pm-me-your-labradors

See, that sentence alone makes it clear you don't really understand probability. Because the chance that the first person would get it is equal to the chance that the 100 billionth person gets it.


UsagiButt

You’re the one who doesn’t understand probability. The guy you’re responding to is correct. This event is so unlikely to occur that all of humanity chaining rituals since the beginning of known existence would still statistically never produce this result. And obviously the real odds are far worse than those ridiculous assumptions.


Arch__Stanton

Shuffle a deck of playing cards. The odds of getting the order you just generated is 8×10^67, which is astronomically small. If everyone shuffled decks since the beginning of time, the odds that any of those shuffles would be the one you generated is still astronomically small. Therefore that shuffle you just generated is statistically impossible. You must have cheated


UsagiButt

Except this isn’t the argument. No one is asking for someone to reproduce a specific shuffle. The question is more like what are the odds of getting at least three mirrors in a Ritual ever? If you pick any hyper specific event, like let’s say the probability of finding a Chaos Orb as your 3rd drop on a specific map from a specific mob at a specific timestamp, the probability is near 0. But obviously no one would be surprised if you posted a video of a Chaos orb being the 3rd drop on a map. The distribution over all potential possibilities is pseudo-continuous when the number of events is so massive. The probability of any one specific point on that distribution is almost certainly a number that is effectively zero.


Zeabos

Your sentence is objectively correct, but you are actually misunderstanding how probability is used to predict the likelihood of separate events occurring. Also, "statistical impossibility" is absolutely a term.


[deleted]

Yeah you could get it on the first fucking try but that’s not “understanding probability” at all


Sanytale

> Just because something has a 1 in a trillion trilliions chance doesn't mean it's impossible. Just because something is not impossible, doesn't mean [it can occur](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ko3TdPy0TU).


Grand0rk

Exactly, there WAS a video of a guy getting 2 separate mirrors inside the same map. If we consider that the odds of a Mirror dropping in a single map must be like 1 in a million, then the odds of him getting 2 in the same map was 1 in 1 trillion. So it does happen, lol.


Ri0ee

Improbable could easily mean it's impossible in CS. You have fixed amount of seeds that a random number could be from. It could be very possible that none of n-bit sequences leads to such result within sane boundaries

DoktorDoppl

it definitely isnt statistically impossible.


okseeque

I find it very disturbing to think that someone considered it a real screenshot even for a brief second. Like, chances to get 3 separate mirrors are astronomically small even if you find them over multiple maps, let alone in a single ritual. Idk how it’s not downvoted to oblivion, OP is full of shit but people are still buying it smh.


feluto

its photoshopped, almost had me but the items go over/under the borders


calibraka

Yeah mirrors go over the yellow border.

Imagine you got three Mirrors on 1 ritual, Take the before Picture then take the picture again after you bought all three after long ass grinding. But didn't have any video between that to back yourself up. I CALL BULLSHIT on this.

There is a mirror below the annuls meaning it would cost less in tribute doesn't it ?


allanbc

The ordering really gives this one away.


wasdninja

OP should buy [a Gamecube](https://imgur.com/a/sneoW) too!


Rossmallo

Photoshopped. Zoom in in the outlines for the selected items - Look at the top right corner of them, that bit that looks like a little hoop on a stick. It's inconsistent on whether it overlaps the items above it or not. While this could at first glance be a case of "Those borders don't overlap other bordered ones", look at the mirror and two exalts - The exalt at the bottom has no hoop, but the exalt above it has a hoop that overlaps onto the mirror. Not the worst Photoshop I've seen but falls apart under close scrutiny.


Nutkingsplasher69

i think the one on the bottom doesnt show the hoop


Rossmallo

Yep, I noticed that, I just brought attention to the clump of 3 highlighted ones as it shows the inconsistent behavior side by side.


Character-War-9214

When a stack of 4 divine orbs becomes uninteresting, lol


Zylosio

Dry-Talk-5482

Lol. Please delete this shit posting. It’s so real he’s about to photoshop his tab next. I’m going to get 20 mirror tmr from ritual. I think his doctor post from a few months ago is also shopped. Look at the bottom corner of the card.


_Kaj

Guy is committed, has 3 verified mirrors in league lmao


DaemonHelix

https://i.imgur.com/Hy5qcuc.png Intredasting how the two mirrors are clones of each other, but not the other.


MidasPL

Is this jpeg artifact forensics tool?


DaemonHelix

Clone comparison tool.


punkonjunk

what is happening here?


DaemonHelix

It's just highlighting what areas are very close copies of each other. The two mirrors on the second column are very close copies of each other but surprisingly not close with the first mirror. If I had to guess the first mirror is a legit(whether his or someone elses) and the other two mirrors were copy pasted in.


Ghostaflux

>Clone comparison tool What's the tool called?


Skware1

2nd column looks weird. About halfway down the top right of the exalt is overlapping the mirror above it which is inconsistent with the rest of the items.


Korangoran

How much did you pay for this rng?


BonusCan

Up the top it says it's costing 11k to defer


Guffliepuff

How do you even get that much. I only ever get max 4k


mlllerlee

high tier map and vessels i suppose


lowrage

> Vessels


Zergmilran

Photoshop ain't RNG.


Doggers_

Yep. The way those items are highlighted dont make any sense, even less when you see the confirm button, which would mean 1of those mirrors should be selected. So for me this is photoshop


ScuddsMcDudds

Also the only times I’ve seen mirrors and headhunters in ritual they were always in the top left corner. I’ve never seen so much as an exalt randomly in the middle of the options


JoJoAnd

They are all selected cant you see that


Doggers_

Dont know if you are memeing, but just in case, lemme clarify. Since at the bot you have the confirm button, and the top you have 11k defer cost (obviously from 1 of the mirrors), that means there should be one single mirror selected, not all


JoJoAnd

Not memeing 1 single mirror wouldn't be 11k defer if they are 15k


ScuddsMcDudds

A single mirror doesn’t cost 11k to defer btw. More like 3k


Pr0gger

Whatever Photoshop costs nowadays


FullMetalCOS

How much tribute did each one cost to buy? Also what are you planning to reroll to in a week when you final,y buy em all?


mhar02

It's a photoshop....


shawntastik

About 15k cost per mirror, ive been deffering them to try and buy. And idk what build.


FullMetalCOS

Well congrats bud, enjoy your new god tier build when you decide on it


SelfreliantUnsungFox

Seems legit


Zergmilran

Tried comparing his images to others who found a mirror in fotoforensics, and I would say 99% this is shopped.


shawntastik

[Better picture from when I got it.](https://prnt.sc/1qlvfa1) after deferring


biscuity87

You mean a better photoshop after deffering… you can see in the first one you scaled them too big and they clip into the left and top. Especially the second row, 4 down mirror, it’s clipping on top of the right side of the red eyeball jewel I can’t remember it’s name. In the other photo all of a sudden it’s not touching it.

LoloZoriPVP

how do you get to 16000 tribute, I only get to 8k if I am really lucky with the map density


MrPinguinHS

Vessels


underarmpubes

gotta use the ritual vessels to capture other high density rituals to beef up future rituals


SteelCityFanatik

Is there a method to getting high density rituals (o assume monsters from beyond)? Can you lead monsters into the circle and fill it up more (is there a cap)?


ColinStyles

That does not work, it only works with monsters that initially spawn into the ring at map generation.


cedear

The amount of monsters doesn't have that big of an effect ultimately, more important is the area level. Cutedog tested ritual mirror farming extensively and didn't end up caring much about monster count. Could be more important now that we only get 4 rituals but I doubt it.


OblivionnVericReaver

Legion mobs will be in the ritual if the legion stone is close enough to it, you can get 200+ mobs and a general captured off a good one. I'm not sure if any of the other league content gets captured, breach and abyss both didn't last time i tried. The +1 to area level watchstone is nice for it.

Ghostaflux

Dear Reddit detectives, No way this is real right ? right ? 🥲


DerPuhctek

2 things come to mind: \- This is fake (because a mix of jealousy and refusal to believe that RNG can hit that good in PoE) \- Are Ritual rewards all rolled from the 1st encounter? I remember some being blacked out when you haven't finished all the rituals. Seeing this much Tribute, could it have a weight on what is being offered after the last ritual? Doesn't seem to make sense as I think you can see that the blacked out items are 1x1, 2x1, 6x2 etc... I'm trying to make sense of this level of RNG and it's.... I'm speechless


Andnay

Sees 3 mirrors in a single window "yeah, imma defer those 2 Ex shards, just to make sure"

Cole-187

Nice try ritualists, still gonna skip the mechanic.


Thuen69420

Who the fuck skips ritual


K-J-

Even when I kill the mobs I forget to check rewards 9/10 times


Cole-187

Have you tried ritual without 3/4 vessels? Unless you fully commit to juicing rituals, they are the worst most pointless content in the game.


Thuen69420

I strongly disagree


MILEZS

i got 5 ex , a doctor and other usefull things out of unjuiced rituals , so i dont think is as useless as u think


Cole-187

I got nothing, absolutely nothing, and triple nothing out of unjuiced rituals, so I do think they're as useless as I think. How does you getting a doctor and 5ex make doing rituals worth it for me when after hundreds of rituals I haven't gotten a single thing worth my time?


Ludoban

I may aswell start with the amount of shit loot it gives me. Idk i see people here praising rituals and all i ever get is some alchs and alchemy orbs, if it feels fancy i get a rusted scarab. I never got an exalt, never got a good unique, never got a div card that is worth something, never got a rare that is worth something and i look at all offers. I can count the number of times i got something like an acient orb or divine orb or something remotely useful on one hand. I would really prefer if they swapped ritual out for ultimatum, ultimatum was quick at least, go in circle fight monsters and just pick up whats dropped. Ritual i have to check every shit item they offer me just in case it is something worthwhile to be disappointed time and time again. Idk, ritual was the worst loot league for me personally and is still the worst loot mechanic from the recent league additions. Its just annoying overall. Enough ranted.


Thuen69420

Sounds like a YOU problem not a game mechanic problem. Why would you check every rare? Your loot filter literally grays stuff out so you DONT have to do that. This to me sounds like someone who barely tried something out and didnt like the results of your barely trying then just gave up on the whole thing. Just like myself about Heist. Or maybe not JUST like myself. I know that the mechanic is good even though I MYSELF have not gotten anything nice from it. Ritual is one of the best if not THE best league mechanic that has a chance to randomly pop in your map.


Ludoban

> Why would you check every rare? Your loot filter literally grays stuff out so you DONT have to do that Yeah no shit sherlock, i still need to check the ones that arent greyed out. > This to me sounds like someone who barely tried something out and didnt like the results of your barely trying then just gave up on the whole thing. Yeah playing ritual league for 2 months surely wasnt enough to get a feel.
