At L89 poorjoy and T9s give the same amount of exp after penalty and inc exp adjustments.

Before L89 poorjoy is better, and after L89 T9s are better.

There you go again matrix, bringing math into an opinion contest.


You have to normalize for relative mob number between the two maps though, I think poorjoy probably has a lot more mobs per map than a standard T9.

Yes, and it has a much worse layout than an A-grade T9, and the detonate dead necromancers can instakill most builds meaning you'll probably have to be super slow and careful when you do it.

4k life and I don't have big problems with Poorjoy. Poorjoy are not as hard as some ppl say but Gorge runs are much easier.

I have did poorjoy at 70s becasue running gorge with other people having 90s lvls did not feel like better xp. at lvl 80 gorge feel much better and it is cheaper.

At 4k life, a single detonate dead will kill you. I suppose you're ranged and have excellent damage so you clear without an issue. I also suppose you haven't actually grinded Poorjoy's (which I've done). Even if you do 5 or 6 smoothly, sooner or later you'll eat a detonate dead and die. Anyway, if you're grinding XP for level 90+, even the possibility of dying makes it not worth it IMO.

Corrupting blood is pretty much the most dangerous thing in poorjoy if you dont remove the bleed instant.
I usually grind poorjoys from 75>85 (that like 10maps maybe), just because the feeling running 1 map and getting 2.5 level from it feels way better than grinding 8 maps for 1-2 level.

Poorjoys gives good XP per map even when your character is very high lvl. I always play them, at any level. They were only bad with CA (due to high chaos res of those detonate-dead mobs), for any other build it was ok.

Map layout sucks, though.

UPDATE- ran both today, here's the result:

Poorjoys @ lvl96: 2,896,568 xp
Gorge @ lvl96: 1,674,090 xp

should record the time taken to do each. cause im pretty sure you could run like 5 gorge maps before 1 poorjoys

Arid Lake should be less exp than plateau imo.

They are less but if you can clear 2-3 Arids in the time of a plateau, then you should do Arids... Which not all builds can do.
