Very concerned about changes to Scarab drop rates

"Scarabs, Chisels and Horizon Orbs now follow the same drop rules as Maps, as they are consumed proportionally to Endgame Maps. They do not drop more with additional party members present, nor do they scale with bonuses to Item Quantity on the player (not that you can get it anymore outside of Standard Leagues). The intention is to keep the number of these items dropping always proportional to the number of Map items dropping."

The way this sounds, we will be getting very few per map. The scarab pool is massive, and the weightings on some of the scarabs are incredibly low.

SSF gets absolutely railed by this. But trade league is going to be rough as well. The removal of B2B would have been enough to rein in the gross drop amounts.

Very concerned by this change.

Less clicks. Isn’t that what people are always asking for
LOL - certainly less clicks.
3.24 oversupplied scarabs. I had literally hundreds of more common types at the end and I quit fairly early this league.

You've got like 100 different scarab types, don't cry over one or two that are extremely rare. They wouldn't ever pay back on your solo non-MF character anyway. They REQUIRED party MF culler playstyle to have any chance of turining a profit.
RIP Scarab atlas, oh well, was a blast last league.
PoE 1 is the best. PoE 2 is something.
