Atlas Map drops...are terrible?

Yep, Zana is a bae. :3 But how I level here if I will get only White maps? Meh >_<

Are these solo self found complaints? Because if it isn't your crazy.

So you run 100 tier 12 maps and get no tier 13 maps.

Player A takes loot/currency from completed tier 12 maps and buys Tier 13s.
Player B bitches the game sucks ass and makes forum posts how they are stuck in X tier.


Which player do you think is doing it right?


Dude, in essence league I ran +40 tier 1 and 2 maps that lead to 3 (tier three) maps and 1 tier 4.

I can't even imagine how long it would take to work my way to tier 15. I'm not expecting to go quickly but the map drop was so low starting from scratch.

Maybe you are having a different experience. Who knows.
My experience in temp. league so far: @lvl 86, I'm sitting around T7, which is in line with previous league I guess.

I've Alced every T5 upwards, used sextants on a ton of Dunes I had (I thought sextants would buff quantity, apparently they dont), doing full clears and playing every map mod, except ele. reflect.

Currently I have 38% on Atlas, I bought 2 or 3 lower tier maps to fill in the gaps and I have some T5/6 still locked. I can't say if % Atlas bonus helps, because I can't compare it to a zero % one, but overall I'd say my progression was good so far.

Now I'm undecided where to start chiseling, seems kind of a waste to do it on sub T8/9.


E:
Oh, and I always do any un-ID map I can get. Never ID blue and esp. not rare maps. Also, Zana is now selling more & better maps.

For me map drop is ok . Just try to unluck more map in atlas.

I run first t9 map yesterday

Spoiler


I'm usually online at 18 gmt +1
From what I can see, If you run all of the maps, drop rate is simillar to pre Atlas patch. But if you try to "make ur own Atlas" by skipping most of the maps, you will struggle.
im siting between t5 and t9 maps for past 4 days

Give this man the award. This is exactly what I have been doing. Both of us are similar levels and have a remarkably close map pool. I am also in T7/T8.

In terms of chisels, I'm just saving them for now. As soon as I feel like I'm running dry I'll using them. Probably not full 20q but maybe a couple of chisels on mid-tier maps here and there. Especially if I need to unlock a tier above or a map around the one I am chiseling.
Run 5-6 maps like these today.

I know, not many maps, but not seeing ONE "=" or "+" in those maps - with more than 150 IIQ, isn't exactly motivating. Can't even phantom not having to chisel all yellow maps. Had "worked" my way to 10-11 level 9 maps yesterday. All gone now. So are my chisels and vaals.

Guess I'm back to farming whites with my IIQ character, to get enough currency to start again.
Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

l Interesting thing I noticed:
People who play a lot (even too much) - like 10+ hours per day or more - enjoy AoW.
People who play normally (like 3 or something hours per day) - hate AoW.

Come to think of it - if it takes 40+ pure hours to reach Yellow maps, how fucked up should be casuals or people who actually have life? O_o

Though I play a lot, I still don't like AoW map drops ^_-

, FeelsSadMan. Are you into unlocking entire Atlas? Streamers tell that it's way to go.
