For me, Nemesis isn't so bad because I can synergize it with additional monster pack sextants and +2 currency drops from Nemesis mod monsters and rare monsters on the map itself, which's fun to me because I manipulate my luck this way.
It does bother me that the mod isn't worded properly though:

"

50% more Rare monsters, Rare monsters each have a nemesis mod, 20% increased quantity of items found.

In the past this wasn't exactly true because it was additive to the Nemesis map mod (the affix on a map).
So 30% more rare monsters on the map + 50% more rare monsters Zana craft = 80% more rare monsters instead of 1.5x1.3 which's 95% increased rare monsters.
I doubt they fixed that yet.

Harbinger will be the only thing that'll be highly profitable so we're all forced to run Zana rotas and I did like Perandus though, I always preferred it on maps with high quantity but low pack size.
But yeah that doesn't really happen anymore either!
RIP.

I feel forced now to stop overinvesting in maps like I used to do (last thing I did was have that example on a T15 Reef which took me 40 minutes to complete because it was so rippy and dropped a shitton of loot) and run either lab or some unique map options to reliably make a profit to have fun.
It just feels terrible to invest 10c, synergize stuff perfectly then only get 8c in return because the balance of GGG made it completely unrewarding.
I'll need a high MF character now to have fun with the playstyle I prefer which's just ridiculous.

Last league i was runing my shaped Strands full sextand blocked and sextanted with mostly Beyond or in the end Breach zana Mods. Vaaled them etc. So i was round 15-20c(with breach 20-25c) per map ( i deleted my Docs with my Samplesizes so i can just tell a round about cost.) sextand blocking is gone now so u need to invest moore sextands to get nice mods. Btw i was only able to sustain my shaped maps with sextands and biscos. this seems to be all gone now. So the nemesis mod wont help much for this kind of playstyle same for harbinger and perandus.They also changed the beyond Price by 25%. If the sextand costs on the trademarket will go down, i dont think that will change the invest that much that we get a good payout for those investments. They just detroyed shaped map farming totally after they made it realy hard last league.
SO jeah we kinda have to stop overinvesting in maps and do what ? Farm all layouts to get those shaper/elder items and trust moore and moore the rng do drop anything worth it.

To make it clear,im not bitching about droprates, they way i played in the past was also not that rewarding ppl might think, u need to invest a lot of time on poe trade and a lot of time to prepare ur maps. but as i mentioned before high investment had a better chance of high outcomes. this seems to be dead.

It might even be a real struggle to get to red maps and maintain running them.

never did the sextant blocking and barely used zana. I ended the league with 649 red maps (though admittedly only 166 of those were t14-t16), so I wouldn't worry too much about it ;)

yes, sometimes you do need to run a torture chamber i suppose. But that's ok, because the way they worked last league, torture chambers actually dropped the most maps (because they had significantly more monsters than a linear map)
