About synthesized items

So, maybe I lost some patch note that explains it, but I don't get why nowadays the worst place to find synthesized items is in synthesis unique maps.

I mean, even in Cortex I only drop them on boss and it is like only one of them, beside the unique one.

I remember doing those maps and dropping fracture and synthesized items all over the map.

So, why is this happening? What changed? It doesn't feel right.

This change occured with the simplified atlas wheels from last league. One of the synth map drop chance nodes had "Monsters in your Synthesis Maps have 2% chance to drop Synthesised Items". Best resource I know for double checking this is PoePlanner, since you can view old atlas tree versions there.

With the right atlas synth maps are by far the best place to find them, i was finding 2 invents full per map.

ye i know, in 3.19 with this passive allocated i was dropping multiple per screen.

But that passive was removed.

Now you just get the three-implicit base from uber cortex and reroll it with the beast. That's kinda silly.

Thanks for replying.

I should say it seems really wrong. Those maps should be the main source of synthesized items. The way it is, there are no reason to play them at all, besides, maybe, Cortex.

Sadly, yes.
That why I rarely even ran Kirac's versions of these maps, because without the atlas tree, there were no synth items. Fishing for the quite rare chance to get some amazing crafting base from it was fun.
I hope they come back to the game in some other way at least.
