Alot of people are farming syndicates in campaign areas. They are able to farm Cameria(intervention), Leo (Research), and It that Fled(Research) every 10 to 15 minutes. That's 2 free exalt slams if you get Leo as leader in Research and 2 gilded sulphite scarabs with Cameria as leader of Intervention. People aren't using chaos to either reroll maps or add mods to maps because most people are farming campaign LOL. Oh and mass botting in act 3 is a problem.

Have you found Leo to be useful in Research? I had looked into a couple of options, but it seemed extremely risky and after Vorici, I'm worried of getting burned again. But I also don't have a lot of experience with high-end crafting.

Right now, I'm doing It That Fled, Tora, Vorici, Hillock, and Korell as a 5th member.

Given that ITF has had its margins drop to about 100c (though granted, it's good), the other members can provide a more solid amount in comparison.

The real question is how is GGG's inevitible nerf to Syndicate going to affect Exalt prices.

Surely they're not going to leave it the way it is, right?

What needs nerfing? Serious question.

Mostly the rewards of Syndicate encounters in maps. There's not really any reason to go past the campaign IMO.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes the risk isnt worth it in maps when you can just Blood Aquaduct at the speed of light.

Hes useful if you want to slam your final gear without wasting exalts but farming it that fled + caimeria and ignoring everything else is still like the most chaos per hour.

lets get exalt prices to 200c we can do it boys.

At this pace it seems we will get there soon, went from 166:1 to 175:1 in 48 hrs.

Its no suprise considering that everyone and their mother is multimodding everything because of how stupid OP items can you make with just bench mods. Every item like this "waste" couple ex for mods. Before that exalts were mostly used for "slams", which wasnt that common.

Its all good, turning ex to chaos again

Feelsgoodman!

now would actually be a good time to convert exalt to chaos because i have a feeling a bot banwave is incoming very soon. I'm currently sitting on around 3000 chaos just waiting for the banwave to happen.

How on earth do you get that many chaos to begin with?

Farm syndicate in acts, harbour bridge etc. Put on speed gear = profit.

You were getting ~240 chaos profit per "it that fled" as a captain and leader of a research safehouse. Buy an esh breachstone for 20c, sell for 140c. It's a bit less profitable now, breachstone prices have gone up with everybody and their mother farming campaign, it's also taking more time buying them now, they are getting consumed faster than they are getting produced.

Plus you make an extra ~60c for Cameria in Intervention with gilded sulphite scarabs (if you even bother to make them gilded, all sulphite scarabs sell, and focus should be on research).

Not sure how quick people really do this, there's so much exageration going on with this kind of things, but even if you only manage to do it once per hour, in 4 hours you should have ~1000 chaos more than before.

If you never spend it on anything, you can quickly have your 3000 chaos.
And it's pretty foolproof, you cannot really go wrong with it, the worst thing that can happen is it takes a bit longer.

The only thing that could happen is a massive nerf to breachstones, but I doubt GGG have the balls to do this mid league.
