Making currency without trading?

Hi!
I would like to make currency, but I hate spending time online, just so I can trade. Also, the game is kinda difficult for my current laptop to run, so I cannot even afford it (cause of heating).

I was thinking about spamming low tier maps and use chaos orb recipe or spamming areas, like Arcade map, where divination cards, which get me exalt orb, can spawn.

Or maybe just spam uber-lab like everyone else so I get uniques and currency for my builds on my own.

Any thoughts?
Thanks for replies.

Farm burial chambers

How averse to trading are you?

Because blood aqueducts if fine.

No cost to mod the area, it's short, linear and has decent density, you can get the chaos recipe, you can get the humility divination card (and a tabula will vendor for a divine which will sell for 10c minimum if you can be bothered trading)
You can also get abbys cracks in them and as such breach related divination cards.
And vaal areas.

Stick some MF on your char and you can do pretty well there

It will be a sad trip.

Bad comp is a strong preset for trading instead of running.

You can clench your teeth, trade for a weekend and then see if the results fit you or not.

If you don't like trading, you have few options:

1. Buy cooling pad with solid fans, put it under your laptop, play like everybody else.
2. Farm "burial chambers" like mad, untill you become mad. 2000 - 3000 runs should give you 8 "The doctor cards", 6 - 8 ex each, depending on league. Can be sold one by on or in bulk, in 1 transaction, no heavy trade involved.
3. Farm "Volcano" map like mad, untill became extremaly annoyed. 500 - 800 runs should give you 8 "The kings heart" cards - Kaoms Heart armor, decent and demanded armor. Sell it, buy something you need. No heavy trading, just 2 transactions.
4. Farm low tier maps like mad, untill you have approx 1500 fusings. Sell them in bulk for chaos/exalts. One transaction.
5. Buy "starkonyas" helmet, farm "uber lab" like mad, with "twice enchanted" prophecy. Look for currency, valuable cards, valuable enchants (+3 molten strike, +1 to barrage and so). Sell it, buy what you want. 2 transactions.
6. Farm "spider forest" like mad, untill you become mad. 2000 - 3000 runs should give you 8 "The doctor cards", 6 - 8 ex each, depending on league. Can be sold one by on or in bulk, in 1 transaction, no heavy trade involved.
7. Farm certain locations of act 8 like mad, untill you become mad, for "Saints treasure" divination cards. Complete set will give you 2 ex.
8. Farm Shaper/Uber Atziri, aim for Starforge, Voidforge, Dying sun, Atziris Disfavour, Atziri's aquity.

Go play SSF then
you always need to have several poe trade pages open with auto search option
it's like finding Exalt orbs sometimes one trade will set you up for a long time if you can buy it First)

He probably can't run browser while playing since on a potato, a browser takes up a surprising amount of resources.

Chrome uses about 2.5GB ram on my comp when playing PoE with all the various tabs open, and idk what load the poe.trade live search filters impose.
