Chasing a Titan-ready two-handed mace in Path of Exile 2 can melt your brain if you just spam crafts and pray, so I stick to a repeatable plan and only spend big when it actually moves the weapon forward, even if that means stocking up on PoE 2 Currency ahead of time so I'm not stuck mid-craft. Start by hunting a strong magic base, ideally an Emperor's Massive Greathammer of Legend with a high-tier explicit already on it, like that chunky increased physical damage line paired with accuracy and life on kill. Then take it to Hibinashi and get it blessed right away, because doing it later feels like tempting fate and it's one less variable to worry about.

Now you're ready to convert it from magic to rare without rolling the dice on the main damage. Use a Greater Essence of Abrasion. The reason people like it is simple: it forces a flat physical roll in the 34 to 39 range, which gives you a real floor for your DPS instead of a "maybe." After that hit, you'll usually end up with a solid rare (the kind folks often call a Dire Breaker Massive Greathammer), and you can stop feeling like you're crafting on sand.

This part's the make-or-break moment, and it's where most players mess up by adding junk suffixes they never wanted. Head to the Well of Souls and set it up so the next Desecration behaves. Keep two Omens in your inventory: Omen of Sinistral Necromancy to force the next Desecration into a prefix, and Omen of the Blackblooded so that prefix is a Kurgal Desecration modifier. Then use a Preserved Jawbone. You're aiming for an unrevealed prefix sitting there quietly, not a bunch of random clutter that ruins the item's lanes.

Once the prefixes are where you want them, you can be way more reckless with the back half of the item. Pop an Omen of Greater Exaltation and use a Greater Exalted Orb so you add two modifiers at once and hit six mods fast. With the item full, you've got room to reroll and target utility. This is where I like a Perfect Essence of Battle, because it guarantees "Chance to gain Onslaught on Killing Hits," and for Titan mapping it just feels right—more speed, smoother clears, less getting pinned down.



Go back and reveal the desecrated prefix. The dream is a heavy hybrid like 154% increased physical damage; the sting is that it can come with something like reduced attack speed, so you've got to decide if your build can stomach it. After that, push quality to 20% and check your totals—this is the point where the mace starts looking like a real endgame piece. Last stop is the Temple of Corruption: hold an Omen of Corruption so your Vaal Orb actually changes the item, then take the swing and hope for a useful enchant like increased stun buildup, and if you're planning to do this more than once, having PoE 2 Currency buy sorted early saves you from stalling out right when the weapon's almost done.
