#

whats better, a new firetower, or upgrade lv1 firetower ?

deft girder
#

If blighted map or several portal with unqiue spawn, create qlot of level 1.

civic cape
#

can you not search for blighted maps on poe.trade?

deft girder
#

Search for "blighted" and limit it to maps.

grave valve
#

uhhh

old egret
#

does anyone know if empowering towers aura effect minions too? the description just said players, so i assumed it didnt, but had a friend say he always picks them because it buffs his minions

tawdry spruce
#

do I just alch and go blighted maps?

silver kettle
#

@old egret afaik we don't have a definitive answer on that. game wording suggests it doesn't, but Ziggy says it does and he gets inside info. nothing from GGG directly

#

@tawdry spruce you should anoint them as well. at the very least, using a clear oil on them is pretty free

old egret
#

ok thanks.

#

ive not used them as much as others, cause i wasn't sure

#

and im playing summoner

tawdry spruce
#

thanks

fickle iris
#

How manageable are blight maps as a non-summoner, eg. Venom Gyre Assassin?

#

I assume still doable, but I've heard some horror stories from my guild

spice cipher
#

i havent finished one yet

#

solo

fickle iris
#

Am I just going to have to reroll the good old Zombie + Spectre + Skellies + Golem package then

spice cipher
#

The changes are a good step in helping

#

I’d save the maps until then tbh

teal yarrow
#

Why the hell boss portals spawn right next to the core when I can only have 2 towers in between and 1 of them just focuses on other lane at all time

#

This is so dumb

indigo wing
#

:DDDDDDD

celest atlas
#

this will be fixed in the next page too .. but theyare not right next to it .. or at least they still have a longer way to go even if the portal appears to be right next to the core

kindred dagger
#

thinking but i think one of the bggest problem with blighted map is that there doesnt seems to have level scaling, like evne on a not modded map tier 3 encounter is still insane especialy with full lag, doesnt make it too much appealing

night cliff
patent canyon
#

and you are just gonna leave it like that without showing what you got? templarSad

celest atlas
#

🙂

night cliff
#

orb of chance and alchemist orb a bunch of them

#

😦

wary smelt
#

i got a golden oil drop yesterday and thats probs more than 50% of all the money ive made from map blights by itself

#

armor/weap chests are just complete trash

dusty umbra
#

yeah at least legion had splinters

fallen tulip
#

Ive gotten 4 exalts from blights

teal yarrow
#

Whaat

#

I am almsot lv 94 and 1 exalt overall so far

quartz dome
#

I wonder if it would be welcome for weapon/armor nodes from blight always just dropped ID'd with a garunteed special explicit from warband/temple/delve/etc

#

Like at least one per

#

So even if its trash it's at least interesting trash

#

Or they could do the forbidden technique of limiting tier rolls to the upper half of the chart

#

Or drop 5 links...?

#

🤷

polar marlin
#

question : if i have no t15 unlocked - can i still drop blighted t15 maps ? (thinking about shaping a t10 and then this question popped in my mind)

patent canyon
#

i dont think they follow atlas rules so having no t15 unlocked shouldnt effect blighted t15 drops

warped mountain
#

apparently ive gotten really lucky this league

#

ive had 3 exalts drop for me personally, 2 of which were from blight

#

and I saw 3 others drop from blight w/ friends

#

I got a doctor from a stacked deck, 3 silver oils, a golden oil

#

And a lot of random stuff that sells for anywhere between 30-100c

vestal escarp
#

I've had 7 exalts, 2 void battery

#

skin of the loyal and a 6l briskwrap from the same map

#

nat level 3 enlighten

warped mountain
#

oh I had a 6 link wep drop

#

it sold for 70c

celest atlas
#

ny news on the patch day .. thought i might happen today -(

teal yarrow
#

Geezus guys

#

I have gotten 2 6L items from blight but one was worth 14c and other was 25c

#

I am so poor this league I have no clue what is with this luck

#

Making currency by getting 1-5c drops and selling them

celest atlas
#

my worth is arounf 1000 c .. and i just have like 80c and 0 ex . so you are richer than you think

teal yarrow
#

LOL

#

Complaining works!

#

Just dropped unique wand worth 2,4 ex I think

#

Finnaly something good after 10 days of hard farming

celest atlas
#

:-)=

violet nymph
#

my luck this league was alll in 6 linking 5 different chestpieces in 350 total fusings

teal yarrow
#

Eyyy it happend! Ex from blight. What a day

wide totem
#

Congrats

dawn harbor
#

i made like 300c the day i started mapping. Got a rigwald quills card and an ex and some other stuff

wide totem
#

Damn

#

Nice

snow scarab
#

nice league btw

placid grotto
#

Portals can give resistance to elemental damage and physical damage. But is there a symbol for chaos damage?

patent canyon
#

no

stark tinsel
#

Blight maps are actually trash. Got disconnected and because of this it deleted my portals. Seems like every league there is more and more disconnects and crashes.

fast spoke
#

I haven't disconnected from a blighted map but my last 2 in a row have had a boss spawn out of a portal on top of the pump, so that's good

silver kettle
#

@placid grotto for clarity, those resistances are only to the corresponding towers. Fire tower resistant mobs aren't necessarily resistant to player fire damage, for example

quaint halo
#

So are blight rewards getting buffed? I saw an article about it and it wasnt mentioned

velvet palm
#

It was very much mentioned

celest atlas
#

not sure, i think it read like the number of chests are buffed not sure tha it also mean the content is better

kindred dagger
#

and i still aint got anything stop sucking all my luck you morrons 😞

velvet palm
#

No one mentioned better content

#

Not even here

celest atlas
#

So are blight rewards getting buffed? <= ..so not the rewards get better .. but more boxes .. more lot, but not nesseccary better onces

#

"Increased the amount of reward chests from each lane in Blighted Maps." (patch notes)+

kindred dagger
#

quantity in this game is insane buff for loot

velvet palm
#

Your words hurt my eyes, blue face

celest atlas
#

Thats not that she said 🙂

#

its Darka

#

😉

celest atlas
#

the new slots are bit confusing because the only pop up once your have the currency

wind yacht
#

just did my first map with beyond modifier and then a simple 4 portal blight encounter.. damn 😄

stark tinsel
mortal yarrow
#

they do

#

its just hard to calibrate properly

#

a portal spawning has a lot of variables involved

sterile brook
#

they mentioned on reddit today that they've known about the issue since before blight came out, but haven't been able to fix it yet

#

so it must be something weird

mortal yarrow
#

well

#

multiple variables makes it hard to "just" fix tbh

midnight phoenix
#

That path also isnt as bad as it looks since it circles round

next epoch
#

There's widespread suspicion that the algorithm involved is closely linked to the Abyss crack generator -- which can get weird sometimes too

mortal yarrow
#

would make sense

distant scarab
#

Looking for thoughts on what ring annointments to use for a golemancer

mortal yarrow
#

well

#

what towers do you use

distant scarab
#

Im not sure, I just cleared uber elder and now am debating what strat would work well for golemancer

#

Ive done like 3 blighted maps so far

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

most people run temporal tower effect and freeze tower range

#

on rings

distant scarab
#

Ive been having decent success just spaming chilling towers and temporal towers

#

yeh

#

Freezebolt, or just chilling towers?

mortal yarrow
#

chilling

distant scarab
#

"Your Chilling Towers freeze enemies for 0.2 seconds while they are affected by chilling beams" Sounds good

mortal yarrow
#

its okay

distant scarab
#

Comboed with "Your Chilling Towers have 25% increased Range" seems solid

#

Though "Your Temporal Towers have 25% increased Range" also seems good

mortal yarrow
#

i'd say the inc effect is better

distant scarab
#

"Your Scout Towers have 25% increased Range" + "Minions summoned by Your Scout Towers have 25% increased Movement Speed" seems like it could get silly too

mortal yarrow
#

ehhhhh

distant scarab
#

inc effect of chill, or inc effect of temporal towers?

mortal yarrow
#

inc effect of temporal

#

mass slow is nice

small mirage
#

I feel like tower building positions should be placed more regularly along the tendrils

#

In blighted maps specifically

#

Makes it difficult to effectively use towers when the positioning is wack, which encourages just clearing enemies manually

midnight phoenix
#

The irregular positioning makes it a bit easier to set up clusters of towers in a killzone

#

Since the more irregular the positioning the more likely it is that there will be a clump of closely spaced towers somewhere

mortal yarrow
#

is there a way to force 8 lanes?

versed dock
#

Too be honest, I wish there would be a sandbox for blight maps; Just pick a map, select where you want portals to be, maybe even more options, and just try it out

haughty harbor
#

@mortal yarrow rng only afaik

mortal yarrow
#

tfw found a dancing dervish 6L maia, time for money templarLul

teal yarrow
#

I can't believe someone at GGG thought this is a good idea. Spawn less than 1 meter from the core. Needless to say (like seen on picture) my blighted map failed in 1 minute

mortal yarrow
#

they are working on fixing it arnold.

teal yarrow
#

I see

celest atlas
#

GET ME THE FIX NOW .. i wanna try my blight map 😉

mortal yarrow
#

wait a bit

celest atlas
#

😉

#

the whole weekend if thought .. damm i need the patch ..

mortal yarrow
#

real men just run them

teal yarrow
#

I did a few t6's and 7's

#

Only one succeeded

#

Lag was manageable on my potato PC but it's the portals that spawn too close to the core just wont let you run around and make towers, you have to spam kill that portal

mortal yarrow
#

i always build a core defense

void wing
#

I once had an in map blight encounter fail before a single enemy spawned templarthumbsup

mortal yarrow
#

10/10

versed dock
#

Spam kill :(
Feels bad when you play a DoT build

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

i play poison

patent canyon
#

yeah same, not like DoT or not DoT effects anything there

dusty umbra
#

Every time i've tried a dot build in poe i've hated myself for it

patent canyon
#

never played one in double dipping days?

dusty umbra
#

i started around 3.3

#

bv -> arc trapper and shimmeron glory days

teal yarrow
#

I kinda like my soulrend for blight but no idea how it fares with t10+ blighted maps

#

DoT skills sure work on lower tiers, though

#

Only real issue is when spawn is too close to core but like people have said, it will get fixed (?)

rose pasture
#

Not soon.

wary smelt
hasty knoll
#

so when are we supposed to see 3.8.1

manic goblet
#

soon

sacred gate
#

Gosh. Is it even possible to complete a Blighted map without crashing? Such a mess...

mortal yarrow
#

yes

#

done 20 so far

sacred gate
#

When you ask Cassia about Blighted Maps, she talks about "the original source of the Blight" that we might be led to by these blighted maps. Does that refer to an actual mechanic in-game?

patent canyon
#

yeah

#

when you drop blighted maps in regular ones

sacred gate
#

Ok, so there is no further layer after Blighted Maps. Thanks

deft girder
#

I notice that empowering tower gives special effects to towers. I thought it just make them stronger.

#

I know that it makes freezebolt tower nova with 3 extra projectiles I think.

sacred gate
vestal ether
#

Full screen vsync on

#

If it still lags install msi afterburner

hollow quail
#

You simply cannot do blighted maps with summoners. Its just a shit show

#

poorly optimized game

sacred gate
#

Yeah, good thing there has been no focus on summoners this league though. Some people might have played this kind of build otherwise

midnight phoenix
#

Since the last fix i havent had issues

#

Even popping vaal skeletons no prob

deft girder
#

I get semi lag on mines. Probably doesn't help that I have 15 MPS and the effects start spamming everywhere.

sacred gate
#

My graphics card never liked PoE very much, I didn't expect much. But still, usually it's a little bit playable x)

mighty badger
#

does anyone know where i can see which oils i need for the notables outside the talents tree, its not on the Wiki?

slow lake
#

Does this help

mighty badger
#

i could kiss you 😄 thanks!

slow lake
distant scarab
#

So I have been having incredible success just building meteor towers, with the rare temporal tower

#

the "meteor towers fire an additional meteor" enchantment is broken good

#

that combined with the +25% range makes maps pretty easy, I did a T13? T14? blighted map last night and that strat made it smooth sailing

#

The only problem is if you get a LOT of fire immune monsters, that can be rough. Im trying to figure out the alternative that is as powerful

#

then I might honestly just craft a second pair of rings for "oops tonnes of fire resist mobs, lets swap to this one then"

#

Freezebolt Towers seem good, how much success have you guys had with them? Especiall if you go with "Freezebolt tower deals full damage to cold enemies" combined with "Freezebolt towers fire 2 additional projectiles"

#

Fireball Tower with "Fireball towers fire an additional 8 projectiles in a nova" and "Fireball towers have 25% increased range" seems insane too

deft girder
#

Try freezebolt 2 enchant + empowering tower. 7 projectile nova freezebolt tower.

#

It makes them very good at open areas. Drop the empowering tower if there is alot of walls.

#

IDK how empowering tower works on other towers beside freezebolt towers.

midnight phoenix
#

I dont like freezebolt generally, its a tower that could have been glacial cage

#

For me the best dps tower has been scout tower

#

But it causes performance issues in blight maps if u have like 8 of them

deft girder
#

I have hard CC so it doesn't hurt me much to not go glacial cage.

#

I basically want the towers to kill off all trash stuff and I go after boss/bubbles.

acoustic lark
dusk cliff
#

you're not serious, right

acoustic lark
#

100% serious

celest atlas
#

you cant start a mission

#

you can still start the map normally with the map device

deep wave
#

Does the empowering tower t4 affect minions?

#

Also Fire t4 and ice t4 for wall is best right?

snow scarab
#

GGG has no time to fix something, they need to get ready for exilecon and do a new shit that you will play for the next 3 months. so just bear with it and don’t hope for any correction. small indie company btw

celest atlas
#
  • NARF * still no update .. so i hope its at least smooth than it comes out ;:-)
naive pier
#

@acoustic lark it means all your master mission tokens will be for white maps, and that's a yellow map you're trying to run. You'll see on the atlas they're divided up into white yellow and red

red wharf
#

do shock towers apply 100% guaranteed shock ailment?

tidal ruin
#

idk but they have shocked ground which is shock while they're on it

red wharf
#

so inpulsa would work without investing in anything else?

#

since for explosions on kills you need only killing shocked enemies

hoary ridge
#

Are portal mobs supposed to ignore you(and minions from tower) and run straight to the pump?

acoustic lark
red wharf
#

@hoary ridge if portal mobs have minion tower icon, they ignore minions, and they ignore you if you dont stand on their way

#

@acoustic lark one of each, they forgot to update this description, they will update next patch

celest atlas
dusty umbra
#

@celest atlas you need zana mod

#

map mod doesnt work

celest atlas
#

yeah damm need to progress zana more still dont have the nemesis one

#

yeah i just saw that and thought it might be the same ._)

#

do you know at which shaper level i get it

violet nymph
#

@acoustic lark In atlas there are triangles of white yellow red maps telling you how many missions you have left

hoary ridge
#

@red wharf I mean, ignore me too.

red wharf
#

yeah, its possible

distant scarab
#

When you play multiplayer in a blighted map, how do ring enchantments function with the towers? Whos towers count as "yours"? Map owner?

#

I mean Im prolly gonna play it safe and just put the same ring enchants on both characters anyways, but Im kinda curious

autumn snow
#

iirc it's the person that builds the tower

distant scarab
#

what about upgrading?

celest atlas
#

uuu are we getting update now !?

mild coral
#

yup

dusty umbra
#

i just made some decent currency due to hyped around them

hollow quail
#

any idea on the down time ?

sullen scroll
#

should be back maybe in 30 mins?

celest atlas
#

556MB on Steam ..which is quite small

slow lake
#

1.09GB standalone

#

hows that possible

celest atlas
#

strange normally steam is much bigger

#

im back in

wintry coyote
#

What does packsize do for a blight map for the rewards?

celest atlas
#

anyone tried a blight map after update yet

rigid stream
#

yes. rewards are now 3-5 times as large, mobs reduced by 30%.

orchid cosmos
#

😮 i gotta do my blighted maps now

rigid stream
#

Be aware Red maps are hard

#

To the Point where 2-3m Shaper dps need 20 Seconds for bosses

#

With buff and debuff tower

sacred gate
#

I just can't, towards the end of a blighted map, I basically cannot interact with anything anymore. Ugh 😦

#

(also, proximity shields are so annoying)

quaint halo
#

whats the site that tells you what oils to use?

forest bolt
#

how do you know if an item will have 2 or 3 anoint slots?

sour fox
#

Maps 1
Rings 2
Amulets and blight uniques 3

slender temple
#

You can annoint amulets three times ?

sour fox
#

Oil slots

forest bolt
#

thanks I thought that was the case but wasnt sure if ilvl played a part

slender temple
#

Oh ok

sour fox
#

Aka
Blighted map mods: 1 oil
Tower mods: 2 oil recipe
Passives: 3 oil recipe

lofty turtle
#

are blight maps affected by quant?

silver kettle
#

Map quant, yes. Player quant only applies to mob drops, not the chests, so isn't fantastic for blighted maps

lofty turtle
#

ah I see. So I should chisel them

silver kettle
#

Yes

lofty turtle
#

ty

distant scarab
#

You can get oil chests in maps now it looks like :3

#

Loot from a T14 map with triple amber

midnight phoenix
#

Ten thousand garbage oils

#

If i ever see another clear oil after this league im going to defenestrate my pc

silver kettle
#

can't believe you're unable to get excited over 1/200,000th of a gold oil

distant scarab
#

An d now a T4 blighted map... way better performance than all the T14s and T13s I just did.

  • Last One Standing x1
  • Vanitty x1
  • The Saints treasure x1
  • The Sacrifice x1
#

I love having a small pool of exalt shards, I can pay people who list stuff for .1 of an exalt now :3

deft girder
#

TIL you can stack the same oil on the same map.

distant scarab
#

From a T1 map, Div cards were trash

hoary wave
#

im pretty mad that the syndicate bench that makes your amulet a talisman gets rid of the anointment you have on it and you cant put a new one on either

distant scarab
#

I thought they patched that today?

#

pretty sure that just got patched

hoary wave
#

that doesnt help me yesterday tho

mortal yarrow
#

known bug tho

halcyon veldt
#

what does "Blight chests are lucky" do?

#

does it mean one chest drops twice the stuff?

frank hound
#

I would like to know that too, typically lucky in poe means it rolls twice for something and picks the better result

#

with chests I imagined it rolls twice for each reward and picks the more rare one

velvet palm
#

Grimro rolled a bunch of "lucky" chests for research and couldn't even tell which ones were lucky templarLul

halcyon veldt
#

do you need pierce to shoot through the frost wall that ice towers create?

cobalt falcon
#

Do map blight affect elder/sharper influence?

red stone
velvet palm
#

That's what you deserve for trying to run league content

deft girder
#

No mana regen is suicide for me. 👀

rigid stream
#

Haste on a blighted map, lol

#

That would have failed anyway^^

red stone
#

nah, i kill everything not unique on spawn

#

but cant play around monsters reaching pump as soon as they appear

midnight phoenix
#

Cant be stunned and cant have movespeed reduced are the ones i reroll

rigid stream
#

Unique Boss health

midnight phoenix
#

It makes uniques so fucking miserable

rigid stream
#

And unique Boss aoe

#

Are a No go

deft girder
#

Same, I have 90% movement speed reduction and its a pain when uniques start running.

#

haste probably doesn't matter.

analog kelp
acoustic lark
#

Just build an attic cage tower

#

You should have one near the pump anyway

#

Artic*

mortal yarrow
#

blighted maps are hella fun

#

now that we get rewards

red stone
#

yeah, now we missing getting the actual maps

mortal yarrow
#

i just buy them

#

only died once in a T11

patent canyon
#

T6 and up are now +20c

#

are they giving that much back after update?

#

red maps 50c

#

yikes

sand meadow
#

I just tried a t1 blight map

#

overwhelmed with so many towers

#

and it destroyed the pump ;n;

#

so lost x-x

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

i would pay 20c each

#

cause i get like 15-50c back

#

depending on rng

remote stream
#

@sand meadow same i cant even beat t1 blighted maps

#

im playing cobra lash with +2 pierce

#

easily overwhelmed after 3/4 of the blight portals are open

#

its just so annoying to keep moving and upgrading your towers

#

while trying to keep track of paths coming from 5 different directions

sand meadow
#

I think my mass minions are blocking me and lagging me 😦

mortal yarrow
#

dont use pierce on cobra lash @remote stream

remote stream
#

its on the tree

#

i switch between venom gyre and cobra lash

#

thats why i need pierce

#

but lets say i am not using pierce anyway, isnt that worse @mortal yarrow

#

?

#

cause i cant get to the mobs that are farther away on the path

#

its better clear

mortal yarrow
#

but your projectiles got a max range so piercing will make you miss out on the chain effect

remote stream
#

makes sense

#

but it should be fine for venom gyre

#

cause i wanna switch to that perma anyway

kindred dagger
#

those blight map.... thats a bit dump to do uneless you got real precise build made for this you cant really do it and tower building is so messed up the idea is fun, just poe hardly suit for such mod

frank hound
#

it's made for parties or stuff like toxic rain

mortal yarrow
#

i dont have any issues with it

#

easily soloable

high ember
#

Whats this league best elder t16? Or there is non

shell torrent
#

I can't use it, anyone knows what happened or I just cant use recipe from maps that I havent done yet

distant scarab
#

Ive been having great success on red blighted maps so far, but man the profit margin is slim

#

Doing it more for the exp, than profit honestly

#

but its not bad, not as fast as doing pure breachstone ROTAs, but, you can solo it so thats a nice upside

#

And I generally just afk for the last 2 minutes of the map and come back to my loot

patent canyon
#

but its no longer just straight up money loss if you do them?

vast berry
#

Profit margins are always going to be low for things like this

#

People don't value time very highly

#

So if the whole thing is buy a map and run it, the price will go up to what people will pay for it

#

Which is about what drops

patent canyon
#

i mean... before it was 20c a map and it dropped 3c

#

now red ones goes for +50

kindred dagger
#

Ok, does anyone had good succes completing blight map on affordable budget build ? if yes which build ?

im really disapointed but the trash economy this league

deft sorrel
#

Anyone know how to open blight instantly? Saw a stream that blight opened asap

kindred dagger
#

What do you mean by instant open ?

#

you mean it start instantly ?

deft sorrel
#

Yes

#

Thats what i mean

kindred dagger
#

because in that case just above your skill you can see a new windows when blight start with arrows on it

#

it skip preparation and start spawning mobs

deft sorrel
#

Holy shit

#

Thanks bro

#

Ill check on that

kindred dagger
#

np, it something that allready exist, we had that in synthesis too to speed up the end of map

patent canyon
#

ok so i had one map laying around, if this doesnt drop even close to the cost of map i am not going to run them ever again

mortal yarrow
#

thats a lot of oil

wary smelt
#

gratz on the 14 clear oils

patent canyon
#

i mean....

#

thats so close and yet so far

#

if not stacked decks pod this is straight up money loss

#

gonna price 21 and 23 gems

#

also thats 18 clear oils, not 14 templarLul

wary smelt
#

dam knew i shoulda guessed higher

slender temple
#

staccked deck bulk sale alone probably cover cost of that map ?

mortal yarrow
#

nope

#

the map is 60c

#

so more than half

#

he got money returns

#

barely but they're there

acoustic lark
#

i can't be the only one who identifies and prices rares

patent canyon
#

thats what i am saying. if you dont get stacked decks its money loss

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

thats why i farm T1

#

its free money

patent canyon
#

so just gambling on those :/

mortal yarrow
#

if you want efficient get T1-6

patent canyon
#

T1s drop decent amount of those?

mortal yarrow
#

since they're cheap

#

i mean

#

its almost the same loot outside of oils tbh

#

its sad but its true

patent canyon
#

so just straight up better huh

#

back to white maps league templarLul

mortal yarrow
#

yep

#

zz

acoustic lark
#

how are blights in normal maps?

#

did they buff the loot there?

mortal yarrow
#

eh

#

they're okay

wary smelt
#

nope

#

same as be4

mortal yarrow
#

i feel like oil appear a little bit more frequent but thats probably just me

patent canyon
#

i mean oils are dumb af

#

red maps shit lowest oils that are zone level 1 drops

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

wary smelt
#

i knew it was gonna be dumb from the start

mortal yarrow
#

it had potential

#

now i just want 36 challenges

patent canyon
#

i just wished it wasnt like talisman

mortal yarrow
#

almost there too

patent canyon
#

but it is exactly as talisman

mortal yarrow
#

yep

wary smelt
#

i knew the top tier oils would be super rare but ppl in discord was like "but u can just trade up"

patent canyon
#

yeah

#

lemme get 2000000000 clear oils real quick

mortal yarrow
#

its a worse one

patent canyon
#

gonna trade it up for gold

mortal yarrow
#

yep

#

farm T16

#

hope you nt get clear

#

:'

#

dont*

wet plaza
acoustic lark
#

wait wtf

#

how many maps did you run

patent canyon
wary smelt
#

i relaly hate that i cant fit all my oils into the bottom side of currency

#

cuz shards take up space

patent canyon
wet plaza
#

just vendor shit shards

#

splinters are easier kept in anormal tab than oils imo

spice cipher
#

just get frag tab

patent canyon
#

yeah i guess so, but i already sorted them by tiers ._.

wary smelt
#

they needa expand that bottom section

patent canyon
#

so the end result from T12 blighted map is +40c profit

wary smelt
#

or add in a league specific part to bottom for stuff from leagues

patent canyon
#

imma buy low blight map now

wary smelt
#

ur profit was basically just stacked deck and the high tier oil

patent canyon
#

i didnt even count oils and splinters

#

just raw drops, div cards and 21gems and 23 gems

wet plaza
#

end result of my t12 is boss spawn a metre away from pump

#

\o

#

gg no re

patent canyon
#

ouch

#

blighted beach for 30c, its actually scary buying them knowing you can lose everything

mortal yarrow
#

@patent canyon wanna compare shit loot from T13?

#

xd

wary smelt
#

why just 20% reduced

#

at least use clear for pack size increase

mortal yarrow
#

i always just take teals on when farming

#

for lucky chests

#

they're 1c each

wary smelt
#

what does lucky chest even do?

mortal yarrow
#

idk but i feel luckier

#

and its only 3c more a map

#

whats best to put on breathstealer for selling do you think

slender temple
#

cowards trial probaly your biggest item

mortal yarrow
#

the gloves are 10c

#

xd

patent canyon
#

i just spam temporal towers everywhere so i like that oil

#

it still gives 5% pack size if it does anything either way

mortal yarrow
#

31 challenges down

#

zzz

#

i enjoy the meteor towers too much man

#

i even took double allocate on rings for 2 extra meteors

#

just for memes

patent canyon
#

yeah.... dunno. they are very very sketchy to run but can be also really really nice profit

mortal yarrow
#

they are full on rng elusive

#

thats why i run triple teal

#

to see if it helps

#

6 lucky chests

patent canyon
#

well lucky armour or weapon chest dont mean shit tbh templarLul

mortal yarrow
#

lucky stacked decks tho

#

POG

patent canyon
#

yeah that one would be good

mortal yarrow
#

i look forward to spamming them monday/tuesday

#

gotta run 80 more templarLul

wary smelt
#

man feels bad that imma have to use a gold oil for challange

patent canyon
#

i am only going for 24 challs this league so just gonna spam blighted maps i guess

wary smelt
#

i might just go for 24

patent canyon
#

since my final challenge is either rng or use gold one

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

im at 31 now

#

almost at the next checkpoint

wary smelt
#

the wings dont really look too good

mortal yarrow
#

nope

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

but its gonna be limited

#

i did those

#

i spent 80c on the rogue exile

#

elusive i bought 100 the four feral exiles

#

and i got the last guy like 70 in

patent canyon
#

yeah... no. gonna spin the rng wheel

mortal yarrow
#

they are 2c each

#

its not that bad

patent canyon
#

but you need to buy them

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

patent canyon
#

its not about the price

mortal yarrow
#

i bulk bought them

patent canyon
#

well either way, prob gonna spam blighted maps untill i go broke since its likely the only fun thing this league

mortal yarrow
#

yeahh

#

imma buy like 10 at a time

#

and run them

#

see if its worth

wet plaza
#

why is annoint blight unique item a challenge

#

rip me

violet nymph
#

are the monsters that cassia spawns in maps affected by stuff like vaal winds? Can they drop map specific div cards ?

wary smelt
#

ah ur ssf faust rip

wet plaza
#

2 more weeks privjet league

wary smelt
#

not gonna be to hard to get it

wet plaza
#

ran 4 blighted maps, 6 to go

#

yes that is what people always think

#

and then youll just not get the thing ever even if its a chaos :p

manic frost
#

PSA: Banisher of the Cleansed will murder your ass, dodge or ditch

patent canyon
#

i have 25% chance to not dodge it and i will take the chance standing into its face so i can apply blind and become "immortal" templarLul

manic frost
#

yeah I have 75%dodge/evas and blind on hit but it got scary

#

if I didnt have that much evasion/dodge I'd have been ded

mortal yarrow
#

@patent canyon i tried that

#

i got oneshot

#

he shoots like 20 projectiles at once templarLul

patent canyon
#

just roll dodge on all 20

#

ez

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

hvande

#

i did him with +2 extra projectiles once

#

he shot so many he basically made an aura around him of death templarLul

patent canyon
#

yeah i know him, he almost one shot me because i run stupid mods assuming i will never get hit and my only form of real defence is kintsugi and elusive buff from ass

manic frost
#

yeah I was thinking about kintsugi

#

meh tho

mortal yarrow
#

just play like you wont ever get hit

#

and then get disappointed when 50 projectiles fly at you

#

how it feels playing dodge

patent canyon
#

pretty much templarLul

#

i love evasion / dodge build but at the same time boy do i hate them

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

grizzled moth
#

What is a good total health pool for an evasion/dodge build? I went into it without thinking

#

Because even though they said blighted monsters couldn’t leave the path, they didn’t say that 50k ranged monsters with 100% floor is path would be a thing

patent canyon
#

very much depends on other defensive layers underneath dodge

#

dodge / eva by itself doesnt reduce any damage

mortal yarrow
#

go full dodge glasscannon hc

grizzled moth
#

glad i'm only looking at mid tier maps for this league then

#

more time to learn (which blight doesn't seem to be helping with)

violet nymph
#

Did they fix blight bugs ?

livid hare
#

From what I've seen, a good amount of the annoying ones are gone

violet nymph
#

same bug they never die

mortal yarrow
#

they have multiple lives no

violet nymph
#

so how they can be killed

teal axle
#

they cant

#

if they're bugged, they're bugged my guy

violet nymph
#

😢

mortal yarrow
#

i think its freeze related

latent plinth
#

Not using Minion Towers fixed Zombie Rhoas problem for me

#

I did 9 Blighted Maps with Freeze/Fire Towers only, 0 unkillable Zombie Rhoas

#

Normally I was always doing Freeze/Minion Towers and the unkillable Zombie Rhoas were appearing

violet nymph
#

i will try it

mortal yarrow
#

@patent canyon bruh i think i memed my T14 blocks

#

i only used slow towers and weaken auras

patent canyon
#

well thats pretty much me but instead of weaken i use chilling and player buffing ones

mortal yarrow
#

i had player buffing ones at the pump

#

and weakens + slows all around

patent canyon
#

95% action speed slow is pretty ridiculous

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

i put the slow temp up

#

30% slow on oils

#

and wither totems

#

bosses couldnt move

patent canyon
#

1 effect boost on ring is enough to drop slow oils

#

effect is same

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

but im paranoid as hell

#

time for a T15 for the challenge

#

wish me luck

patent canyon
#

with chilling tower i saw goatmen do its jump for like 10s templarLul

#

gl gl

mortal yarrow
#

10 bosses

distant scarab
#

I just do:

  • Meteor towers always stun
  • Meteor towers summon 2 meteors

And just go triple amber for 60% reduced building cost.

Then I just slam down clusters of meteor towers literally everywhere.

#

Then once things get hectic I put up one or two frostbolt towers that can cover two directions, generally something like this:

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

i did the T15

#

now i just farm 1-5

distant scarab
#

Blue being frostbolt towers, purple being the temporal towers

#

so 2 and 2 of each

#

then everything else is just clusters of meteor towers, clustered around lv 3 buff towers

#

meteor towers have absolutely mental range and a cluster of them can cover several lanes no problem

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

i dont really build towers outside of slow when im farming

#

no need

#

appreciate the tip tho

distant scarab
#

On red blighted maps?

mortal yarrow
#

also on red blighted

#

i can do T15 with slows and weakens onlyu

distant scarab
#

what skill?

mortal yarrow
#

cobra lash

distant scarab
#

interesting, yeah I find once you approach the end and all the lines are piling on, my golemancer cant 100% keep up without support from meteor towers

mortal yarrow
#

i guess its the fact that i pumped like 20 ex into this dude by now

patent canyon
#

ouch thats a bad one

distant scarab
#

its all about the div cards and oils I find

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

it was for the challenge

#

so atleast its done

distant scarab
#

one gold oil and you're good

#

but all dumpster oils and... no good

mortal yarrow
#

33/40 now

#

i could actually get 36 right here right now if i wanted it hmm

#

interesting

#

time to bulk buy T1 arcades

distant scarab
#

I think T13 is the sweet spot, i80

mortal yarrow
#

i mean

#

that depends on what you flipping for

distant scarab
#

Though I kinda wanna do T15s with triple... azure? verdant? Whatever the exp bonus one is

mortal yarrow
#

im flipping for money

#

so i can sustain

distant scarab
#

Yeah

#

i80 is when gold oil can drop

#

which is T13

mortal yarrow
#

i flip for cards tho

#

10 cards and your map is free rest is bonus

distant scarab
#

stacked decks?

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

and so the flipping begins

#

bought 4 for 120c

#

lets see

distant scarab
#

I like to burn my stacked decks after building em up

mortal yarrow
#

and yeah i would too if they werent 3-4c each

#

but considering i can get 100 pretty fast

#

its better to bulk sell

distant scarab
#

No frostbolt tower?

mortal yarrow
#

no need

#

i oneshot everything

distant scarab
#

Meteor tower stuns are also extremely nice

mortal yarrow
#

i build what the challenge tells me to :P

#

so far made 50c from this map :P

#

@patent canyon you ready for sweet T1 drops for 33c map?

patent canyon
#

hell yeah

mortal yarrow
#

there is a saint's treasure among the div cards

#

told ya man

#

T1 is the way to go

patent canyon
#

or generally white maps

#

since they go for same price more or less

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

but arcade unlocks saint

#

thats why its opop

#

time to try meme and only build meteor towers

#

lets see their efficiency xd

patent canyon
#

they 1 shot stuff but has very lenghty cd

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

but 40 of them

#

should clear it pretty well

#

+2 meteors from each

#

i can recommend farming it while prices are low

patent canyon
#

stacked decks carried by the looks

mortal yarrow
#

actually not

#

black oil x2 is 20c

#

so they're like 50c together almost

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

but yeah imma milk this i think

#

glgl

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

this is legion 2.0 wtf

patent canyon
#

damn, actually have to port out straight out of pump since it managed to drop enough 6S

mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

this needs a hotfix lol

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

yep

#

i rather want cards tbh

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

yeah

#

fuck the oisl

#

we are here for the pure drop and stacked decks

#

i have gotten 2 saint's treasure already

#

feelsgoodman

dapper trench
#

is 3.8.1 out yet?

latent plinth
#

3.8.1 is out

patent canyon
mortal yarrow
#

easy 50c

patent canyon
#

wait

#

t5 beachead for 20c

mortal yarrow
#

20-30

patent canyon
#

yeah thats just straight profit then

mortal yarrow
#

yep

patent canyon
#

racecourse time

mortal yarrow
#

glgl

#

time to open shop sell shit go again

patent canyon
#

thats just not fair

#

thats like 100c profit or more

mortal yarrow
#

ikr

#

just bought 4 more arcade

#

for money i made running them

#

so uh that endgame grind with 100 of them is gonna be easy peasy

#

already at 30 now without losing bank

#

the xp is god awful but who caresa when you can jsut end up buying shit

patent canyon
#

i am buying blighted maps and my cash stack grows ._.

#

damn sales templarLul

mortal yarrow
#

feels nice doesnt it

patent canyon
#

it sure does. league is on

#

mmmm.. maybe shouldnt have bought ghetto... will be ass to clear with scourge with half proj went missing into void and walls

mortal yarrow
#

i just spam arcade cause saint

#

saint is instant profit

#

i run like 7/hr rn

#

feelsmoneyman

patent canyon
#

the market for them is so good

#

its insta buy for first whisper

mortal yarrow
#

its nice isnt it

#

i wonder when the nerf arrives

patent canyon
#

prob wont be any

#

just that ppl will wake up and add like 10c to price

#

literally didnt take 10m to buy, so good

mortal yarrow
#

3rd sain

uneven raven
#

best oils for farming maps?

slender temple
#

elbow grease

#

just keep at it

#

and youl make profit

wanton rivet
#

whyd pp spike up so much

heady hazel
#

Can I stack 2 empowering towers for a double buff?

sacred gate
#

Can you anoint a corrupted amulet and vice-versa?

teal axle
#

no

#

corrupted items cant be altered (except sockets, colors with "vorici" crafts)

#

you can corrupt after annointing yes

#

@sacred gate realized that was 3 hours ago lol

next epoch
#

better late then never I guess

teal axle
#

we tried

sacred gate
#

Thanks @teal axle x)

teal axle
#

👌

cobalt falcon
#

Can i swap ring with tower annoint in the middle battle?

#

And get the benefit?

frank hound
#

depends on if it snapshots when it's built or if it's like an aura

#

it would require testing to find out

past badger
#

Would be nice to have different tower buffed rings in bag, slot them as needed.

mortal yarrow
#

Too complicated

past badger
#

That too

patent canyon
#

I can test that one, i have temp tower range and if i remove ring and circle doesnt shrink it should snapshot after building then

mortal yarrow
#

@patent canyon hvande you going for endgame grind?

#

100 blighted maps

patent canyon
#

i will get 100 maps but i wont go for that challenge

mortal yarrow
#

Hmmm

#

I just mean that part of it tho

patent canyon
#

then yeah

#

its a lot more fun than mapping or delving so imma do this for the rest of league

mortal yarrow
#

Can I join when you run them?

#

I still need 60 more and not home until Monday :c

patent canyon
#

alright

mortal yarrow
#

Need to save currency for 40uelder kills

autumn snow
#

@patent canyon farming blighted too? 😄

#

what oils are you guys using?

mortal yarrow
#

Teal

autumn snow
#

I guess I'll do that

#

violet doesn't look too bad on maps with good dc

mortal yarrow
#

Remind me violets effect

patent canyon
#

i am usually popping violet and 2 teals

autumn snow
#

I'm gonna do all teal to test

patent canyon
#

sometimes cost reduction

mortal yarrow
#

I go 3 real cause im cheap

#

Teal

autumn snow
#

I was using sepia for afk farming

mortal yarrow
#

Can just stand at pump and afk

#

I just hold right click

patent canyon
#

thats pretty much that. i set up 2 screen wide temp tower galore in each direction with some damaging towers under buffers

#

just sit in middle and spam

mortal yarrow
#

Yep

#

7 maps/hr

patent canyon
#

ohh just noticed

mortal yarrow
#

Noice

autumn snow
#

can't go higher than that :/

#

5 min each + loot picking

mortal yarrow
#

Yep

#

7 hr is max unless multiple to loot

patent canyon
#

had my morning coffee, time to run those 8 blight maps i bought yesterday

autumn snow
#

it's really fun & chill

autumn snow
#

my favorite tower is arc

#

so good for clearing

patent canyon
#

ok i need to remove T5 essences from filter, they are getting annoying and i am very likely not gonna use them

autumn snow
#

ex from loot explosion <:

patent canyon
#

nice

#

made returns to cover the cost of those 8 blight maps with 3 still left to go templarthumbsup

patent canyon
#

nope

#

you cant apply anything on any corrupted item

celest atlas
#

@autumn snow im mostly using chil right at the portal and tham flames if they dont resist .. why would u say arc is better ?? more range

autumn snow
#

clear

#

mainly

celest atlas
#

what do you guys use as best anoinment combo on yur right ? currently have chill/Fire

patent canyon
autumn snow
#

yeah

#

and essences

#

a TON OF ESSENCES

celest atlas
#

?

autumn snow
#

@celest atlas I'm gonna try freezebolt

#

with additional projectiles and "Your Freezebolt Tower deal full damage to Cold Enemies"

patent canyon
celest atlas
#

do they stack?

#

always wanted to ask that

autumn snow
#

they should

celest atlas
#

ok urs a 2 different

patent canyon
#

they do stack

autumn snow
#

you can stack them but I want them to also deal good dmg to cold resist

celest atlas
#

i mean could you also stack +25% dmg to fire tower twice

#

or does the normal poe rules apply

#

for 2 different onces it should be a problem like range/dmg of fire

patent canyon
#

or you could apply 95% action speed slow to every single mob withing 2 screen radius and get more than 10x damage on all towers templarLul

autumn snow
#

have you tried action speed?

#

imagine 200% action speed templarLul

patent canyon
#

and tailwind on top

#

you could become minigun turret

#

soooo.... blight portal clips with each other on small map device

#

scam

autumn snow
#

so fun

#

alright

#

time to test this

autumn snow
#

looks like freezebolt additional projectiles don't work the empower tower...

#

the projectiles hitbox is super small?

#

the projectiles pass through the mobs but they don't hit

celest atlas
#

what would you do with it .. Alch + some cheap anoinments?

frank hound
#

pretty much

celest atlas
#

u guess the blight rewards a mostly iq based as well

patent canyon
#

chis before alch

celest atlas
#

but not with the t3 one .-)=

patent canyon
#

with t3 one as well

celest atlas
#

RGR, RGR

autumn snow
#

lol

celest atlas
dusty umbra
#

@patent canyon i just open those lately

#

2x nurses, samurais eye so far

patent canyon
#

thats neat, i prefer to just take the 100% chance to profit

#

i think i've sold something like 500c worth of decks so far

autumn snow
#

I did open around 50+

#

nothing special inside

#

rng is rng

celest atlas
#

hmm around 77c worth of stuff from the T3 Blight

dusty umbra
#

@patent canyon yeah i just sold em last league , not hurting too much for currency so i like to open ones i get

#

Best part is when you open 1/10 card to get 10 stacked decks

autumn snow
#

lmao, can't believe I failed

#

forgot to pay attention to the pump...

patent canyon
#

so umm...

#

why are blighted maps becoming more cheap

#

dropped from 30 to 27 for yellows

#

or did everyone get severe PTSD from before buff

wary smelt
#

man i put mine up to sell yesterday and it didnt

#

shoulda put a lower price

autumn snow
#

@patent canyon their pc can't handle lmao

wet plaza
#

because 5minutes of em makes ppl sick

vestal escarp
#

blighted map price dropping?

#

I'll take

patent canyon
#

yeah, same

#

i need funding for my poison bow crafting

vestal escarp
#

wanna run some together?

patent canyon
#

maybe

vestal escarp
#

I'm a level 95 summoner and I demolish red ones with ease right now

#

yellows will be a cake walk

patent canyon
#

summoner, then strong no. i want to have frames

vestal escarp
#

I dunno, I have plenty of frames on my machine

#

like, blighted encounters got WAY less laggy this patch

spice cipher
#

Summoner solo is mostly fine but add in another summoner or poison build and it gets laggy af

patent canyon
autumn snow
#

time to drop a billion survivor cards @patent canyon

patent canyon
#

i love that card

#

but i hope this time it wont take over stacked deck drops templarLul

autumn snow
#

I don't think dc chests care about map drops

wary smelt
#

wth howd u get 190 quant

low kindle
#

Corruption and oils

wary smelt
#

cant vaal blighted maps

#

too poor to use it

dusty umbra
patent canyon
#

i feel like my mid tier oils are slowly disappearing by oiling every single map i ran

distant scarab
#

I think Im mostly gonna aim to do T13 maps, and hope that golden oils fill in the profitability margins

#

I can handle even T15 blighted maps without issue, but Im just not seeing it being that profitable to run

patent canyon
#

yeah just unlocking golden oil drop is enough

#

there isnt anything outside of potential to sell T16s maps on top

autumn snow
#

yellow are definitely profitable at 25-30c

#

t13 are 65c+ I think?

patent canyon
#

T11 is 44

#

T13 is 64

#

15 is 95

autumn snow
#

probably not worth it

patent canyon
#

yellows feel like sweet spot for me

celest atlas
#

my problem is .. i could handle red blight map ... (propbably) but my GTX760 doesnt ... and im not getting my rtx back for a few weeks 😦

autumn snow
#

stacked card drop rate is crazy

patent canyon
#

yeah, they cover map costs alone almost

wary smelt
#

idk how u guys keep getting alot of div card boxes. never get alot of em

autumn snow
#

sometimes you get 0, sometimes you get 3-4+

patent canyon
#

and there are other boxes that drop good stuff

autumn snow
#

yep

celest atlas
#

damm map stash doesnt support searching for blighted maps does it?

patent canyon
#

sadly

#

i dont know what to do with those frags

autumn snow
#

I'll use them on my elder map

celest atlas
#

i use them on the high maps and on niko runs .. all but the top right which is the rarest one

autumn snow
#

unique chests finally dropped something good lol

#

unending hunger

celest atlas
#

hmm its only 40-50c ,-)

#

if its not top notch

autumn snow
#

better than nothing

#

unique chest is shit :/

#

really good stuff in this map though

#

saint treasure + 2 pristine + 1 serrated + unending + 6 stacked deck

celest atlas
#

baeh best FOSSILS are in the DARK 🙂

#

but got an annullment and a divine on last map 🙂 also good money

autumn snow
#

:p

#

this one gave me rusted and polished sulphite

#

11 stacked cards

#

not counting the other stuff

uneven raven
#

should I just spam white maps (like arcade) or should I start running yellow maps?

#

and which are the best yellow maps?

autumn snow
#

I'm doing random yellow maps

uneven raven
#

do you buy them?

autumn snow
#

well duh

uneven raven
#

well might be farming them lol

autumn snow
#

how do you want me to get them otherwise

#

blighted maps don't drop blighted

uneven raven
#

do the divination chests drop the map's cards? or just random cards?

distant scarab
#

How profitable are you finding blighted maps on like a, per hour way?

#

@uneven raven random, Ive seen all sorts of stuff from them

autumn snow
#

tbh I'm not counting

#

around 30c profit on average I guess

#

7 maps per hour

#

200c/h?

distant scarab
#

what oils you using?

#

Ive just been using amber atm because it makes the map super easy, but I might switch to some more profitable oils

autumn snow
#

teal

distant scarab
#

how would "lucky" work for chests?

autumn snow
#

like diamond flask I guess

#

rolls twice, picks the best roll

distant scarab
#

but what is being "rolled"?

autumn snow
#

depends?

distant scarab
#

I feel like Black Oil might be better? for profitability

autumn snow
#

maybe for red maps

#

too expensive for yellows imo

uneven raven
#

I run 2 amber 1 whatever I have

distant scarab
#

it depends how this works for oil chests

uneven raven
#

usually violet for quantity

distant scarab
#

cause I feel like the core profits over many many 13+ maps are gonna be the money oil drops

autumn snow

1 extra reward is good for chests like scarabs

#

not so much for oils

#

we already drop multiple oils per chest

#

chests that drop valuable items but in low amount are good with that

blacks are 8c

3 blacks is almost the price of another map

Thats why Ive been running ambers, I self sustain on em anyways, I end up often getting 4+ ambers per map

I prefer sepia

less towers = less clicking :p

I just spam meteor towers then afk

autumn snow
#

and makes them strong enough to afk

#

typically by the 2 minute mark I have so many meteor towers, enemies dont even get halfway to the tower

#

and standing in the middle I dont even see any enemies on screen

#

I'm using arc

The "Meteor towers always stun" enchant is absolutely insane

#

bosses just get permalocked near the towers and just take it

#

meteor kill everything

#

including my fps templarLul

distant scarab
#

no need to make frostbolt or slow towers

#

I have actually had like 0 issues with FPS or anything so far

#

even with like 30 meteor towers going and being a golemancer, lag is pretty acceptable

#
