Exp needed for "Master the Blood Crucible" is too high

I made a spreadsheet using the exp values from poedb.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16x7c09rREA2EzY9d4ntEccJtGnwKCnvIoFhGQV0rIE8/edit?usp=sharing

I'm at level 54 crucible right now so according to the sheets, if I average 150 stacks per map, I need to run 770 maps to finish at level 63.

Not even that. If you're cheap and dont want to even waste T1 maps any a9/a10 zone with a good layout serves as well.

This is sad but true. If you have a 500%+ ms character with like RF or some shit on that insta kills everything you could even zoom through BA and make 3k+ exp per 20 seconds ;) Its just zero fun.


I still think this challenge needs a tweak. Even tho im done now.

How can blood cruicible exp be the same everywhere from story mode to t16 content and not have some kind of multiplier in higher tiers?
Even if it was just 50 exp up to white maps, 100exp up to yellow maps and 150exp up to red maps that would probably solve it for the most part.

I just now discovered this thread and it makes me sad.

It felt so bad when I figured out that, to grind for "Transform Items II" it was best to spam buy ilvl68 body armors for 1alc instead of using those in my stash since they require more blood for no gain.

Why do items require more blood but you don't get more?

Finally managed to finish this challenge but it was miserable.

Mapwatch says since I hit 39/40 I ran over 500 maps. I would say 160 avg of about blood stacks per map since I just went alch and go in super good layout maps.
I know the density is lower in those maps but I felt it was faster for me to run 2 good layout maps in the same time as it would take me to full clear like underground sea or something.

I mostly ran white maps with a super fast char.

If you really wanna force it and don't care about money:
Buy Glacier maps. You get like 80-100 blood stacks in the entry area and can just portal out and go next if you like. That should right now be the fastest way imho.


Nice work, grats for You!

If it is not secret, what 2 maps did You find to be good for high scourge stacks?
Might try them as T14-T16s after my EGG is done.

I also tried a low budget fast white mapper, but could not stomach white mapping anymore.
I still need tons of maps for random rituals and abyss depths, so pushing slower T14-T16s towards.

And still pissed by the fact that the blood gain is flat, but that is all, accepted to deal with it.
All-time non-streamer luckless dropless rewardless tons-of-time-playing non-TFT-er 100% solo player.
So, it just turns out, we were lied to for years with the promises of a two-storied one PoE 4.0.
All these worse and worse beta leagues, all these braindead changes, all lead to this.
I tossed together a mf deadeye and blasted t3/t6/t10 tower maps for the last 2 skillpoints. Would've gone crazy with my trapper, but was actually fun with the mf char though.
El Psy Kongroo.
Blood aqueduct seems a good choice with superfast char. this is boring but you know the layout.
You will also have a nice tabula rasa collection -_-

What even a9/10 would produce the same? OMG
No to conditional challenges on top of RNG pure luck mechanics.
Gonna stop at 36/40 this league... Good luck to guys aiming for 40/40!
3.13 Was the best league ever!
3.18 Rest in peace my beloved recombinators, I'm gonna miss you...
