GGG should make sth like that if you go to t15 map you won't drop maps which are below, let's say t11's. No more dropping multiple Dunes, Pits etc. maps on t14's.


I am sure GGG is willing to do that, but without increasing the drop rate of the remaining higher tier maps.
Here is how I maintain a map pool....

I don't.

I hate it. All the f'ing chisseling chaosing alching trading I couldn't car less. I just want to log in slay some monsters and log off. I'm not anti trading or crafting, but I hate to do it for content. It sucks.

Give me high level content with an exp reward >0% and I will run it all day every day, buy stash tabs and be a happy camper. ATM I log in, do my dailies do a few maps I bought from Zana and log off.

Maybe its all a big conspiracy to keep server stress at a low level...

T12 max lvl where you can find carto and chance to find it close to drop mirror rate - non existence.

For all leagues and few 100 lvl never seen one carto on high lvl maps (T11+)

Some people think you run T15 maps all the time, one after another. They buy the maps, they go bankrupt... what can I tell you - some people are pretty silly. :v


the big mistake is thinking you can run a single tier: you run a range of tiers (mine is t11-t15)

examples:


you have no guaranteed drop but in the long term you'll sustain them if all the maps you run are rolled like these ones

edit: never bought a single map from other players, just some from zana


goddayumn - dat Shrine. 45% pack size. :P Bad thing it can turn into shitstorm on the bossfight, due to -res and Temp. Manageable, tho.

But yeah, you're right on that.

I feel you. I just stop at 90 nowadays. Not worth the frustration after a hard days work to come home and have to trade my ass off to get 100s of chaos and chisels just to run red maps on a half ass regular basis. And they are not even that hard save core and coliseum. The BS gating makes game a joke though because 95% of the time since you are running too easy of maps or content 95% of time.

If you stop at 90 you are almost insured to get there and decent exp along the way by just alc and go your maps.

I had the worst luck yesterday... burned through about 10 blue t5 maps without any returns (yes, tier five.) Somebody was kind enough to give me another 10 or so t5/t6 maps, I chiseled and alched each of them because I was sick of no returns but still only got a few maps back before running out again. Got frustrated and ran Olmec's because it was my only good xp-bearing map left and ripped in the 3rd wing. Oh well... it's back to the beach for me.


Not looking forward to working through higher tier maps with this kind of luck T.T
