Vaal Fragment Farming Showcase

I ran 100 corrupted areas with very nice results:

Spoiler

Fragments: 52
Midnight-7
Noon-7
Dawn-16
Dusk-22

Gems: 48
Spectral Throw-4
Power Siphon
Burning Arrow
Lightning Strike-4
Haste-2
Discipline-2
Lightning Warp-2
Fireball-5
Ground Slam
Detonate Dead-4
Molten Shell
Flame Blast-3
Reave-2
Storm Call-2
Cyclone-3
Glacial Hammer-4
Summon Skeletons
Immortal Call-3
Ice Nova
Grace
Clarity


This was done mostly in Docks, not using the new method. I just wanted to document the results of normal runs before I started burning through fragments. Also the timing trick is still very reliable for me, I assume others as well.

Can you explain your method of farmin? Do you just put vaal fragments in the map machine? How do you know that a vaal fragment is guaranteed to drop in return? Did you farm low rarity fragments before starting using them as maps? What area lvl is it if you use it in the map machine?


I just farm City of sarn on merc for my petty frags. And you will also get a couple midnights on the way which is very nice. I got 12 filling up my tab for this round, which was 4ex in just midnights. Afterwards just run your petty frags on the map machine one at a time. You can't guarantee any frags will drop, I've even had drystreaks lasting like 10 frags only getting gems which really blows. My best advice is to just keep at it. Also try to do as many chaos recipes and gather all the chromes and jewl recipes you can which will also turn out to a couple extra exalts.

Thx for answering but what lvl is the area when you create it in the map device?


I believe the area's spawned are lvl 67, because the bosses drop ilvl 69 gear.
BUMP Also, round 2 results are up.

The areas range from 66 to 68 (and prob. 69 for midnight?)

Next questions: Do the corrupted areas created in the map device have any mods? Do they drop maps? Do you even lift?

Don't know, but I did get lucky on the drops getting a alphas and 2 BoR's. Corrupt area bosses are pretty good for uniques.
Oh lord you got 2 BoR's such RNG

May jesus be with you x)

Is there a special area to farm those i really need one and cant pay 2 exalts T_T
Got one off boss in a corrupt area, and the other off a blue in another area. No strategy just luck :)
