In this segment of the video, the key points are about effective tempering practices in the game. It is advised to scatter-shot temper a couple of items before committing to one, focusing on rolling the most important axis first. Enchanting gear after tempering is beneficial, but costly, especially for two-handed weapons. Imprinting your chosen legendary onto the item after enchanting is recommended to avoid bricking the item. Masterworking, unlocked through the Arizer pit activity, offers various upgrades with boosts to affixes, including major upgrades that enhance specific AIX on the equipment. Consider the resource cost and power gain before advancing too far in the masterworking process.
