Emperor Voll

Wraeclast is the place to be.
I will continue playing, as i have all the leagues past.

We need slightly better drop rates, just so i dont feel like an asshole after 600+ kills of a named mob that has something in his loot table... that is all.
Time into reward... i got time, i spend it in wraeclast and i want my rewards :)

But hey, GGG has the data, has the spreadsheets and balances accordingly i hope.
They set the appropriate rate, and then they DOUBLED IT... jk no they didnt :D

Same, old story. Drops suck in Path of Futile.
Dozens of shit items to keep in the dozens of stash tabs u buy.
Game is not enjoyable with its fucked up RNG.
OP: 300 Voll runs and nothing. Sums it up. Move on to another game. You'll feel better.

Hi, can I have your stuff?

Yup, that card is seriously very rare but considering that you can farm it for "free"......

Ha! What stuff? That's the whole point. I have nothing worth anything.

I feel like the drop rate is pretty okay-ish.
I did like 70 hours Voll farming (1min per run) and got 3 cards while camping 820 to level masters and bought the other 5.
You just need to put on some music and turn off your brain. xD

Cheers

can I bring some mathz in this thread ?
k,thx

headhunter costs about 115 ex on temp league and 140 ex in standard league

you say- a card should drop in 1/300 voll runs

so then, you can get a headhunter in 2400 runs
ok cool, so well geared mf toons can run a voll in under a minute. but lets say a minute per run.,

gratz, you just made 140 ex in 2400 minutes = 40 hours. you're making 3.5 exalts per hour. good game, good game.

I could say yadayada about item cost, but you know most of the stuff, you're just twisting things to put it in a bad perspective.

Headhunter card drops in springs, what you're saying is that people can do springs map in 1 min, and chain 2400 lvl 78 maps in under 2 days of playtime. (great example with headhunter)

And mf doesnt help on card drops.....You surely meant people have mf in general to aid on other drops, and lets say 99,9% of everyone reading this knew that :)

Sure people can "profit" of farming for cards, but there are better ways if you want to get higher exalt/hour.(ignoring your unrealistic example)

I can also add that after lvling/farming in docks quite a lot with one of my chars this league, i found the card for 20 fuses to be abysmal..I seem to mostly find gambler and emperors luck at the moment, with 3 chars in talisman lvl 88-85 and now 84. Maybe in another month i will ahve completed some "good" sets, but then again, i'm not specifically farming for them.

bah, I should stop posting on onset of holidays...for some reason I thought brittle emperor gives a headhunter...not volls devotion. so my bad there- I was wrong.

my whole point was that if a card's drop is supposed to be tied to rarity of the item in question, especially if the item doesnt drop normally anymore, then the card simply gives a part of the item in question, which is the fraction of the rarity.

some people tend to think that for some reason getting an item via cards should be easier- I don't see why this would be the case. a tough item to get will have cards that will rarely drop. 300 fast voll runs is nothing in the grand scheme of things.

expecting an ultra-rare card guranteed drop in 300 tries is unrealistic, and me bringing up that example was just saying how numbers dont stack up if it was to drop that often.

also Im fairly sure quantity on gear affects card drops, but maybe Im wrong here again.

Cars merely decide where you farm.

In Äquaduct you can get Humility, In Dried Lake you can get Brittle Emporer, in Docks lucky connections etc.

Sadly due to the high levels a lot of areas with divination cards aren't even really effective and when it comes to maps, you normally just do the ones you have, at a certain point the luxury to decide which ones to do is gone.

Voll's Devotion is worth to 2 mirrors if we could equalize worth of every item from what they do in the game. Its that good item. Unique items keeps dropping and they lose their worth daily. Flippers up their worth and thats what all the poe economy is about. Even %99 mirrored items cant offer such power of volls ammy. (only chimeric skalpel, brood twine can match with volls ammy) Voll's Devotion is probably the strongest item in the game, without any proper downside. its almost +x2 damage multiplier for discharge builds.

the item you want is the most powerful unique - probably - in the game. It should not be easy. Actually getting such power from fucking cards... its crazy good for new players in poe. before those cards, voll's devo was like 150ex at the start of the leagues.
