Loot From Mapping

"
"
Ah the timeless complaints that are rooted in "no raw currency drops = poverty league" at the start of every league.

TL;DR: Raw currency farming is a noob trap. Sanctum literally got nerfed for being a currency printer. What made you think super juiced map strategies weren't going to get hit? Farm for stuff you can sell.
"
That is grossly incorrect. The only thing they nerfed were a handful of scarabs, because the amount of juicing you could do with them greatly outpaced literally every other strategy in the game. There's still plenty of juicable content if you know where to look.

Worst case scenario, there's content that doesn't depend on loot explosions to make bank too. Go farm Elder Guardians with Maven. Grind uber lab with gifts to the goddess. Go run some Heists. Do Rituals while juicing with the stacked deck scarabs. Sanctum misses you. ROMAN IT'S YOUR COUSIN NIKO! LET'S GO DELVING!

Just because you don't know what farming strategies are available, likely because you depend on whatever streamers tell you are meta, doesn't mean they don't exist and aren't good.

Bit of advice: Whatever farming strategy that sounds too good to be true, probably is. Avoid it, and when GGG eventually nerfs it, you'll be a lot better off. I knew Affliction league was stupidly juicy and avoided it, and in doing so, I didn't spend the next league after crying about poverty. I knew Merc league was busted beyond belief and only ever used an aggro sponge tank, so when they got removed this league, I miss nothing and am much stronger for it.


Don't forget Bestiary had a terrific QoL buff where it's easier to clean out the menagerie. Should make farming beasts a lot more viable.


Viable if you want your own sure but 160 yellowz for 1 div is literally 2.5x the typical market ratio because of the buff.


Don't sell yellows. Shoot for Black Morrigan, Vivid Watcher, all of the meta red beasts.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

Zero loot on with full juiced t17 map
I see now that the foulborn tree provided everyone with starter gear and now its end game and getting serious the truth comes to light. No loot from monsters in an ARPG.

What people mean when they refering to tile rewards is built in rewards mechanics like afk ultimatum beats killing mobs solo.
Before this patch POE1 was a currency simulator in which all WEARABLE drops OFF THE GROUND were automatically useless in endgame.

The devs now removed the currency simulator part.

You are mapping for literally nothing except graftblood to play gamba at the tree. All your scarabs, quant, atlas, etc. are irrelevant.

Looking forward to the end of this league, in which the tree is removed and the further destroyed baseline drop rates (they were nerfed hard in necropolis league too by the way) remain with no compensation.

Better get that streamer client running boys and girls.

They should rename each league to "Harvest league" because I'm literally having to play harvest to get any consistent rewards that then translate into useable currency (or other items) through trading. It was like this in Settlers and in Mercenaries and also now. A harvest atlas tree with no scarabs in the device. I'm sure excited to having to play this way league after league because everything else below the bleeding top end is a joke.

my friend quit also and he usually plays for a month+
i've done like 20+ fully juiced T17 strongbox map, no perfect clears but usually it gets me somewhere at this point of leagues. So far I can't even manage get enough stuff to farm again. WTF is this??? Yesterday I wanted to quit because I can't make any profit by investing in map more than 2 divs. I gave it a second chance but it's still sh*t.

At the start of the league the tree gave me a full stack of divine orbs, i know it's lucky but after that it's basically nothing.

Gonna quit really soon.
lvl 94 not dropped a single divine. T17 Maps are dropping so rare too. The loot explosion from a fortress is like a garbadge rain after completing it. When i see one in Map i always think "oh no not again". The combination of the trading merchant and not dropping anything valuable in map lets you feel like you are one of 200000 players. I never found more nothing than in this league. with all these service heroes and the 5man jucing groups on youtube the game is so bad for a single player.

lvl 91, not a single note worthy drop. No divines. Nothing. Scrapping by every last tiny item or bubblegum currency just to barely make a few chaos.

Just feels awful and no desire to play and I even am loving my build. But what for? Nothing drops.

40/40 last season fore reference, and usually play for a month or more.
