Maximizing Value from Kulemak’s Invitation in Endgame

[Matthew]

Kulemak’s Invitation in Path of Exile 2 represents a high-value endgame consumable, unlocking the Vessel of Kulemak pinnacle boss for Abyssal Lich Ascendancy and profitable loot like Undying Hate jewels. Maximizing its worth demands selective phase choices, bulk farming, and trade flips in T15+ Abyssal content, yielding 4-8 Divine Orbs per hour net. Strategies focus on low entry costs (9 Exalts each) and scalable rewards over raw volume.​

Optimal Phase Decisions

Always revive the Vessel three times, selecting liches for synergistic mods: Amanamu for DoT chaos multi on Grip of Kulemak rings (T4+ sells at 3-20 Divs), Ulaman for ES sustain, or Kurgal for crit scaling. "Return the Finger" in phase 4 cracks the arena for Lich form, guaranteeing Abyssal Lich unlock—cash out early only for risk-averse SSF. This nets 100% ring drops plus 7.2% Undying Hate jewels at 3 Divs each, far outpacing single-phase yields.​

Bulk Farming Loops

Farm 50-100 Invitations via Tasgul/Vandroth in Desecrated Waystones, resetting Black Cathedral via logout for 20-30 runs/hour solo. Buy at 0.0225 Divs (9 Ex) during saturation, profiting from 0.216 Divs/jewel + 0.012-0.016 Divs/rings + rare Farrul's Runes (0.8% at 17 Divs). Group splits packs for 50+/hour, flipping low rolls instantly on poe.trade.​

Trade and Currency Conversion

List excess Invites at 0.2-1 Div peak, or convert rings/jewels: corrupt high-mod Grips for breach bases (1-2 Divs) and sell jewels raw. 100 runs yield 5+ raw Divs, 1 perfect Exalt, and 31+ staffs for niche flips—pure profit post-costs. Integrate atlas trees boosting abyss depth for self-sustain.​

Build and Gear Synergies

Run Abyssal Lich summoners for minion clears during farms; stack 75% chaos resist, ground immunity, and paranoia flasks for 2-3 revives per Waystone. Post-unlock, Lich buffs amplify jewel value in loops, pushing 10+ Divs/hour ladders.​
