How did players go bankrupt mapping again?

Obviously OP everyone has the same luck as you do.

Obviously.

I had the worst luck yesterday... burned through about 10 blue t5 maps without any returns (yes, tier five.) Somebody was kind enough to give me another 10 or so t5/t6 maps, I chiseled and alched each of them because I was sick of no returns but still only got a few maps back before running out again. Got frustrated and ran Olmec's because it was my only good xp-bearing map left and ripped in the 3rd wing. Oh well... it's back to the beach for me.


Not looking forward to working through higher tier maps with this kind of luck T.T

Never chisel and alch low tier maps... You run them blue and just pick up the currency that drops, use that currency to buy maps on Poe.trade, I don't get why people are so against doing this...

Well if you buy maps the outcome could be worse and all that currency you just wasted was just well wasted. Example lets say you bought 4 T14's and all 4 of them yielded less maps then before or even none due to bad RNG.

At that level of maps you can pick up more currency to supply maps forever until you're until isn't shit anymore, no one is talking about sustaining T14's

Was just an example I don't thinks reds are meant to be sustainable, It was just a statement of why people don't' wanna buy maps lol

If you're getting fucked by RNG or whatever people who can't sustain claim, buy some T11's. In perandus they were 5c a pop and you can run them all the way to 100

Maybe, but Gorge is lower level than Springs, that's all I wanted to say.
I have no idea what level 97+ people run.

On HC, still running mostly gorges and plateaus to 100 if you want to be on the safe side lol.

Not true. At lvl99 you get about 1mill experience from a lvl78 map. Total experience required to go from lvl99 to lvl100 is about 350mill. So about 350 lvl78 maps are needed for the final level. Or about 1% gain every three lvl78 maps.

At lvl98 it should be even less. Around 1% gain every 2nd map so roughly 200 lvl78 maps to go from lvl98 to lvl99. Not 600.

Source: Math and I've leveled to 100 in last few months.

MY source: 6 month ago with old map system using only rare/blue maps. Of course you can get more xp doing zana mods but then just add few more chaos just to roll your zana maps.

1% at level 98 without zana mods in old courtyards maps.

how maintain a high tier map pool:

1.find a cartographer strongbox
2.alch/chaos
3.profit

T12 max lvl where you can find carto and chance to find it close to drop mirror rate - non existence.

For all leagues and few 100 lvl never seen one carto on high lvl maps (T11+)

this was yesterday http://i.imgur.com/pdgy20f.png
also perandus archive 5 or 6 days ago in courtyard http://i.imgur.com/3XLQ6W6.png

lucky?

Obviously NOT, everyone has the same luck as you do mate.

Its SO common carto and archive in T15 maps, sometimes got 10 inside one map, use all 6 portals to get half maps sometimes.

Obviously.

Isn't it obvious that as long as maps are pure RNG some people will get royally fucked while others will get rewarded like kings. The bad thing is that we talk about content here. Its like throwing the dice if you are able to continue to play or if u have to buy maps or stop playing.

And all the stupid argument for it are just straw men. If sustainable maps reward to much exp the lower the xp reward. If we get to rich running maps then lower the drop rats but at LEAST LET US PLAY FFS
There are people who are getting richer by playing maps so the money influx is not an argument. Reduce the RNG and spread the incume of the few lucky over many and you will not hear no criticism from people running out of maps because there would be none.
