15th Memory Fragment RNG Gating

I've been trying to get Elder to occupy a T15 map for days now, to no avail, he always spawns in t13/14, meanwhile a friend of mine got 3 of his last 4 Elders in a T15.

I've been playing PoE since 2013 and this is the most ridiculous, most infuriating and frustrating experience.

I wouldn't mind if it took an entire month to unlock Uber Elder, as long as theres a visible and tangible PROGRESS, but this RNG clownfiesta has to GO, i'm so freaking frustrated.

Peace

Only advice I can give is to have more than one goal active at a time. That's the only defense against an RNG gated goal.
Took me around 7 elder spawns to get them all done.

I 100% agree that this is a terrible mechanic.

It should obviously spawn the elder in the highest possible map of the influenced area.

Bad implementation.

I miss more of this in PoE. There should me more viable ways of working towards certain goals without having to rely on RNG in the long run. Some of the RNG gated content in this game is so rare, that you can have months-long streaks of bad RNG, making the game more a frustration than a game.

Especially when it comes to content/challenges you cannot trade for.
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

100% agree. I literally just had him retreat off 7 red maps while trying to trim a yellow map off the tail end (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2115225). 2 hours (including trading and other stuff though) of work undone. That's ridiculous. I'm at 12/15 and these posts aren't making me feel good about the rest of my time I'm going to spend in this league.

I'm all for bricking Uber Atziri sets to finally kill her. Adding RNG elements on top of crazy micromanaging - it's literally like babysitting the Elder-ly, growing and trimming off the sides, all while he can break at any moment - is insane.
