yea but its zana's atlas kinda sorta
just like how zana's maps dont interact with your influence or drop requirement logic sometimes
makes sense either way tho
I mean 78m life or 70m life I'm dead either way
im really stuck on whether or not i wanna drop 2ex to buy a 6L vaal regalia
or if i save like, 80c and buy occ vestments
I mean.. whats the top end difference on those bases?
about 50 base es
Considering Conqueror &Metamorph damage I doubt 50 base ES would safe you
which comes out to probs about 130-180 more after mods
and then something in the 400-500 range after tree
Afterall Sirus slams you for 12.000 base phys
lol wat
yea fuck that im not paying that much for it then
my 7k ehp gets me through everything else
and tbh, almost any rare chest will gie me more ehp than carcass
sucks i hate to lose my massive aoe bonus for it tho
I'm at ~7.5k life rn with 90% phys reduction &molten shell aaand I can barely tank any of his phys slams
youve convinced me to save a lot of money lol
I'd honestly just wait until high end bases drop in price
alright things in 15 and 16 are way tankier holy help
@tiny coyote 30% first phase or 30% second phase? xD
2nd
Oof.. yeah I feel ya. The fight really picks up then
actually so hard without mirror/legacy gear
I mean 70kk life is 70kk life
when the guy on SC
has 30 million DPS
its not really the same thing
plus not taking into account the superior defenses
did you get a talk to kirac quest
nope
Its more than 5
You already spawned Sirus once so you no longer have guarenteed spawns
didnt they fix it yesterday that it should be done if you do 3 different maps
for the first spawn for each conqueror
okey
well that explains it
ill just continue mapping
and if they spawn, they spawn :D
thanks for the help, didnt know that it was only for first spawns
@primal whale god you werent kidding about t16 shit being rough
Yeah its insane
Uncorrupted vaal temple eh
not sure how to get to maps from 2 socket regions, when connecting maps from 1 socket regions are too low to drop them and i dont have maps from said 2 socket region yet
could someone elaborate on this and how its done correctly?
yea i know that
but i have 8 watchstones and need to do 2 socket regions to get 9th right?
yea and connecting regions are too low tier to get maps in the 2 socket region
its breaking my brain lmao
@coarse moon Ikr
Feels like they convert 100% of their damage to Chaos just to oneshot me
am i missing something or can you not use sextants when a zone has influence on it?
I mean thats pretty obvious cause you cant click the watchstones
yeah it is obvious, but it seems kinda of dumb so i wanted to make sure there wasnt some aspect i was missing
I mean why even bother grinding for watchstones
do samples ( eye/liver/heart etc) appear larger on filter ?
or they didnt fix this yet
uhhh what have i done wrong? completed all maps already in Valdo's Rest (inner lower right) but citadel didnt appear
anyone know why my conq encounter not proc ?
i have 4 full watchstone socketed
then i spawn 4 of them again
but the last one not proc anymore after i kill 3 of the conq
i tried 4 5 maps but the dialog not popping
what happens if you die in Tane's Lab? Does the boss despawn?
yea
As far as I can tell the maps you run to spawn the conc have to be the tier of map you just upgraded too
So if you have a tier 11s but your doing a 4 watchstone boss you have to do 16s
How do i spawn sirus? i tried it once but failed and i want to try it again
holy shit I got an eye, I'm gonna cry

if a zone is highlighted on the atlas, does that mean its influenced? I got a red watch stone from it, what is best way to move forward now (simply camp that zone to get all stones/till influence goes away??
that means its influenced yes, the rest of your q depends
if you are just getting your first watchstones you need to go to each corner section of the atlas for your first procs of each of the 4 influences
run maps there til influence pops, run 3 maps, go get watchstone repeat
after your first 4 watchstones the influence is random anywhere on the atlas but the map tier required to proc it gets higher
and they say I'm heartless 😐
thanks @violet nymph
Guys, can't find any new kirac or colored areas https://gyazo.com/e4b3a24438ed1a2dcadd5dc4c50559ed theses are my quests : https://gyazo.com/b0e4e4f185dcdcac5956c7178b9fc81e
How do i spawn sirus? i tried it once but failed and i want to try it again
some areas may only spawn exiles only when they meet region level req
and your stones are all over the place without any focus, swap them around
I need to focus on an area ?
does anyone know how i can get my citadels?
cus im missing 2 citadels and they just wont spawn
whatever i do
Try to use the character you initial started the zana questline with if you aren't already. if you are on HC and ripped that character than you might need to wait til bugfix @robust fjord
alright, gonna try
it worked, thank you so fuckin much
Do i have to be in my initial character for bosses to spawn in this area or not?
Only for the citadels from my understanding
alright
he won't move, what do i do now? i can't open the door
did u already try to use a movement skill?
so guys, how to get eyes? any guides around?
do not go and loot
or this can happen
i can't get out
if you relog, you lose loot
Hello guys i'm new to the game and idk how to save organs in the stash...i mean...maybe i didnt reach the requirements...i'm at lvl 30... Or do they rarely drop from the metamorph i kill on the regular map? Maybe i'm missing a mechanic or something...thanks!!!
You need to fill that bar on the right when you are constructing the metamorph
doesn't happen often in the story
Ohhhhh i see
Thanks 😂
I was missing that then...and sorry about my English... i can't find a spanish chat 🤔
guys wth
i dont get how to summon elderslayers at level 4
like ive done several maps in the sector
but im just not getting the dialogue for the elderslayer
so i cant fight the elderlsayers
and before you ask, yes the sector is fully slotted to level 4
and has influence, but doing maps doesnt make them appear anymore
you only have a 33% chance to find an elderslayer at region 4 from what I understand
Sorry to ask a really dumb question, but...
...what does one do after getting access to a citadel in the atlas? It seems to be a mico-zone in which Zana is present as well as an altar, but I can't seem to find a way to interact with it at all. Isn't there supposed to be a boss fight with each one?
no, what you've found is just an altar that they were building to mess with the atlas
its where you'll socket watchstones for that region
you'll first encounter the elderslayers in the corner regions of the atlas
for now keep running maps until you can get to the corner regions, and in the other regions check after the map boss to see if you've found the altar for that region
ah ok, thanks, that makes sense. So there's no reason at actually treturn to the micro-zone itself now that it's present as a socket on my Atlas right?
right
thanks
you'll even get a portal to that altar zone after each boss too
or rather the altar will come to you
but you can socket the watchstone from wherever
feels bad man
that clarifies things 🙂
failed the first awakener kill and now its so expesnive
to get lvl 4 bosses to spawn
is it? don't you just run maps basically?
guys, whats the better way to progress atlas rn, gather all the 4 watchstones for each zone so high tier maps dont spread and then repeat for each?
Haven't been paying close attention here, so maybe this has already been discussed, but is it possible to fill the metamorph meter in Tane's lab?
it probably is, I managed to get to all but 1 bar filled without being in red maps yet so I'd imagine using very high ilvl parts will achieve that
as for what it gives when it's filled if anything special, don't know
It doesn’t give anything special
Just makes a more dangerous metamorph who can drop better items
i see
is the body part reward from juiced up metamorphs random or can be controlled? Got 7 lungs so far and no livers
ahh ok - awesome, ty!
another question - just finished the Al-Hezmin fight but the snakes won't despawn and no watchstone dropped. Bugged out or am I missing something?
looks like it looted to my inventory or when I selected "Take Watchstone" from Zana it gave it to me
Guys, is every wathstone specific for a zone, or i can put them in whatever zones i want?
can place whereever
quick question regarding atlas progression: do i get more than 1% completion when i do for example a t4 map and then upgrade the region and clear it again on t7?
or in other words, should i complete all maps in a region before upgrading it to t1 and so on? or can i just upgrade once i get the watchstone?
You get 1% per map clear regardless of tier. If you complere it on white and upgrade it all the way to red, it's still counted as completed and won't give any additional percent.
very good to know thanks! so i will stop clearing everything on t0 now and use my watchstones 😄
is there a spreadsheet or website with the maps listed for areas?
So what I've noticed is that I get the same organ as a drop which I've put in to the morph machine. Is there a way to force specific organs? I am starved on livers and I barely find any unique livers in my maps.
Atol map metamorph use = disconnect
not for me 🤷♀️
run maps where that organ drops, but otherwise no
if the boss drops multiple types i'm sure its weighted
hence why so many people are having eye/liver problems
run these two maps
oooo thank you thank you
I'm just 11 levels ahead of the zone I'm in but the league mechanic is not spawning what gives
is it a story zone
yes
that would be why
I had been farming it for a while though
league mechanics usually disappear from story zones as soon as you reach a certain point
to prevent people from doing what you're doing
11 levels difference is a weird metric to go by
" to prevent people doing what you're doing " is it a sin to farm now
ye to prevent you from exploiting low level zones
and force you to actually farm more difficult content
doesn't really matter cause if you wanted to you could always farm the act 9/10 zones since you never outlevel those
guys
when the boss spawns on my atlas, do i have to do different maps for him to come?
or i can do the same map over and over until he spawns
Different ones, once he spawns in a map, he can't spawn in that map again, you need 3 appearances to spawn him too
how do you go about the atlas at the beginning, should I do all low tier maps first for the bonus and then gain influence and do the guardians or just straight to it?
try to get as many maps done as you can
then when you have access to all 4 regions start doing exiles and up atlas tiers, focus stones on single region
Hey, are the appearances of the conqueres going way down after awakening the atlas? Or am I just having bad luck?
So far I've only seen 2 in 8 hours of play time and one didnt even drop a watchstone after killing (zana doesn't have it either)
Is there anything to do with extra endgame organs? I have like 20 lungs and only 2-3 of everything else.
@fallow laurel after unlocking sirus the rate stops being guaranteed
its something like a 30% chance per map after that point, in an eligible region, to find a conq
hmm okay, i am pretty unlucky then, because i ran atleast 30 maps
and different ones ofc
is it possible to get itemised organs during campaign?
or is it onl;y possible in maps?
ngl, never tried in acts
me neither, but if you manage to fully charge the "juice" bar you should get an organ
am trying to farm imperial legacy in act9
cause my build sucks so much i can;t do maps yet
and was wondering if i should try to get it or just do a quick morph to get some extra items\
if you can farm it well and are able to use the bow a long time then why not farm the card
the card is relatively common as well
just make sure you arent too overleveled, the drop rate goes down if you are too high
id try to farm desert maps then tbh
or you could farm tabula cards and use/sell the tabula
that has even higher lvl difference
oh right, thats a9 too whoops
but tbh, BA are easier to farm than Vashitri desert/foothills/oasis
My personal opinion is to get a solid base of T1-3 maps in the center, then push out to the 4 corners and kill each one of them in a corner
As you kill the first four, socket them in the central regions only
From there run T5s in the corners to get T6s in the middle, after that you can branch out how you want
Big thing to remember is that the corner regions have essentially +1 watchstones at the start in terms of levels
So make sure that you're laddering your regions up
Do I have to run awakener when he spawns or do I risk losing him by running maps?
Not sure, I ran mine immediatly, failed horribly but still got the awakened atlas :p
Boring and small
I failed mine the first time but really want to kill him this time around because he takes SO long to spawn
took me roughly 50 maps
However, I think I can buy some skele gems and try that because I hear these spectres die instantly
i just tried sirus again and got him down to 50% without dying
but then i got rekt by the moving ball phase and literally couldnt damage him further
next time ill get him, he isnt that intimidating anymore
any tips for out manuevering his dot fields and finding him? espeically for minion build i had a difficult time in getting past his 2nd phase and keeping minion alive to do dmg after that
update: wiped to sirus again, got him to 75%, died, then he went to the far back of oriath and became untargetable and murdered me 5 times :)\
really not a fan of this fight to be honest, the fact that the dot fields damage you when you're close but not inside of them is SO tilting
and the ground degen thats almost the exact same color as the regular ground
and has the same texture as non-degen moves he does
real intuitive and fun.
that sounds like what i experienced 😐
i think everything but the dot fields are kinda fine and maybe fun
but the fact that u have to paly hide and seek really sucks
It seems like he has so many phases too
yeah im a bit dreading fighting him
because of how hard everyone says he is
i might wait till the fixes to do him
I would honestly wait yea
most of the fights look cool and i dont mind hard, i just mind bullshit degen clusterfucks 😛
DPS didn't seem to be a problem at lvl 5 awaken either
i killed 2 of the conquerors deathless, the others had some questionable mechanics (mostly died to the hunter too fast to figure out his mechanics)
is hunter the poison one?
yeah
yep thats the one I had trouble with
It seems you just don't want to follow him and go the opposite way of the triangle
that seemed to work for me at least
yeah its a lot less visible than the others for sure
and drox adds are just bullshit lol
yea a lil bit lmao
like if they make hunter arena brighter, fix up awakener, and tone down drox adds slightly this will be an 11/10 league
its just kinda hard to see the ground degens
it is a similar issue in the Catarina fight in betrayal
i just cant see where i need to step to not that dmg cause the whole map is so dim
i cant spawn blue watchstone is this a known bug ?
i have the other 12 watchstones (yellowx4,redx4,greenx4)
can anyone give me a hand with influence nonsense
i have 17 watchstones atm, i failed sirus once, i cleared influence from 2 sections of my atlas afterwards already but i've ran t14~t16s in the red/blue regions and haven't been able to run into map influnece again what am i doing wrong
is encountering them after proccing their influence just random now or something
Anyone figured out the catalyst vendor recipe as stated in the challenges?
Put up a guide for the early watch stones (prior to awakening), if you got friends who still don't get it:
does any catalyst work with primordial chain +golem amount? or only the less dmg/life mods
Is the question if there's a catalyst that would increase the number of golems you get from PC?
okay, i think im kinda stuck on atlas, got 13 watchstones total, to spawn next conqueror events, i need to socket 3 stones and use maps with appropriate tiers, but all highest maps i have, are from regions that had 2 stones socketed. Is playing random lower tier maps and praying for +1/+2 tier map drops the only way?
just make sure one region is red.... and di t10 yellow maps
ull get red maps pretty easily
red map drop rates are honestly higher than i cn use them up to like t13-14
what, you get t13-t14 maps on t10 maps?
not from t10, just in general not too hard to maintain connstant rate of t11-t14 maps
You can only drop maps that are 2 tiers higher
yeah, that doesnt exactly answer my question
t10 will pretty easily get u t11 though
chances of getting t11 isnt bad
make sure to alch the maps
like, if i need t12-t14 maps in region X, but i have t10-t12 maps from other regions, i should just play those other regions and pray for +1/+2 map drops?
What you should do it set your regions up in a way that only those regions you need maps from are t12
first region X needs to be watchstoned toget 12-14
seems pretty difficult considering large atlas pool, is it possible to narrow down map drop pool?
and then just do maps from t10-12 elsewhere
This is how it works
if only 1 region has red maps from watchstones u won't get othe red maps from drops
so to summarize, i need to make sure only 2 regions are highest tiers, one is target i dont have maps for yet, other is where i farm maps (the one where i have most of highest maps)?
Region A is t10-t12 and you got a bunch of maps from that region. but now you need t12 maps from Region B. So you take all Watchstones from Region A to decrease the map tier to t1-t5 so only maps from Region B can drop
and make sure other regions are low tier, so maps wont drop for them
what do i do if my watchstone gets stuck in the altar
@sharp estuary Go to Zana "Take Watchstone"
thanks!
lumina, so youre saying that t1-t5 maps from A can drop t12 maps for B? o_O
Jeez
Region A has 3 Watchstones and is therefor t10-t13 (or whatever tier they are). You have a bunch of those maps but now you need Maps from Region B. So you take all Watchstones from Region A and put them into Region B and then you run your t10-t13 maps that you got from Region A. Now that Region A is no longer t10-t13 you can no longer drop those maps and all maps will drop from Region B
gotcha, thanks
Make sure you have no other Regions close to the level of the Region you need maps from and then run any map of the same tier that you need and you'll automatically get the maps you need
just realized i can ctrl+click on stones from unwanted regions and they go automatically to shelf on atlas left
alright, will do, downgraded all other regions
what map tier do i need to trigger region level 2? i know you need at least tier 4 for region level 1 i think?
is it not possible to sextant a sector if theres infuence there?
no, the watchstone altar is under control of the elderslayer
so watchstones go away after certain time/# of maps run
wait so nothing happens if you fill up the meter in the lab?
i expected idk something
is there not anything else to the metamorph mechanic??
trouble is I can't understand how you can keep going without a lot of map trading, this is way over complicated
I mean, I get influence, but if I don't HAVE those maps you can't do anything outside of trading, frankly I think YOLO run WTF you have is better
anybody do a powerpoint presentation on how the fuck this shit works?
I agree that trading can get very tedious especially if it's just trading equal value items like maps. But it's either that or grinding to get the maps... not sure what's worse
@maiden junco yea, i just did it, nothing happens, pretty disappointing
sorry if dumb question but do Watchstones get consumed?
no, you can move them as you want, but they do get locked in when an area has influence
once you clear the influence you can move them again
anyone wanna carry an awakener for me?:)
@leaden cypress so when you clear the influence you get the watchstone back plus another one right?
and just repeat till you have all citadels with full watchstones?
yup
really like it
and im guessing bosses get harder, because otherwise it would be a joke
They do
so how does the new atlas work? how come i have completed maps that aren't on my atlas?
They are hidden
Once u start putting watchstones on ur atlas they become visible
So once I have the 5 organs do I just put them in the tower in tanes lab?
Anyone got an overview for Catalysts? Which mods they actually affect, like "caster mods" etc.
Cant even see it on poedb
you can find it in separate item class page, ex: https://poedb.tw/us/mod.php?cn=Claw jewellery_attribute
Damn, there is no aura catalyst, right?
nope
also added under all catalysts https://poedb.tw/us/item.php?n=Turbulent+Catalyst
How exactly does the Watchtower mechanic work? Got a 5 towers and 3 balls, don't know how my mapping is being affected.
socketing them in tower raises that region map tiers
basically shaping on steroids
ah, got you
but there's no real target farmign right? doing maps in a certain region doesnt seem to be dropping more maps in that region for me
well if you have only that region at high tier
it will drop maps only from that tier
got you, ty
There is technically target farming but it is pretty complicated and odds are you already scuffed your atlas for it.
Depending on the map you need to never complete some adjacent/in region maps in order to target farm. And currently there is no way to undo completion on maps.
Iirc, big reason for the atlas change was to make map farming harder
Does dark pack + spell cascade + astral projector work?
If so spell cascade dark pact poets pen with a summon skeles poets pen
Set up will result in 9 dark pacts that overlap

May have just broken astral projector
I mean it is a nova, but does spell cascade work with dark pact?
If it doesn't, the ring won't enable it to.
Also, spells cast with spell cascade don't deal individual damage for every spell in the cascade, it's all treated as one large spell afaik.
If your struggling with getting specific organs , run 3 boss maps - https://youtu.be/NA2YGC-caNA
Lots of people are getting stuck with out boss organs of the types they need in the new Path of exile league, this little tip might help
Sorry don’t know if the question goes here since there is no « conqueror of Atlas section » but is the conqueror spawn randomn after 16 watchstones. I’m running correct map in 4 stoned regions and I haven’t procced once since 20 maps already.
it's random like it used to be
I literally can't wait for the auto-pickup stuff
that’s gonna be real nice
I would like a change that makes it not random if you are already have your conqueror spawned
Ok thanks that’s just frustrating 🙂
i have awakener 5 and 25% increased chance to drop an influenced item in an infleunced area. Ive spammed dozens of maps in influence and ive never seen 1 drop. anyone experiencing this?
jesus the drops are RNG-y, my best brains/lungs/heart/liver part are all blue/white, and at the same time i have 5/6 unique organs for eyes xD
6 tries into awakener and i'm really burning out
i want to kill him, but it takes like 3 hours on average to spawn him
Elder was similar time invstment to spawn but didnt disappear when failed
shaper is like run 4 maps or buy the fragments
While Awakener is just "do these maps for 3 hours, no shortcuts"
hey guys, did first 4 watchstones and have a doubt about influence
i got yellow influence on the center of the map and im wondering if I can complete the maps with the same names but different tier
for example i have an atoll tier 2 but given the map influence, its 5
no, you are doing the map on the tier you are opening them in, they wont count.
yes you can
Hmm i see, i could also do a tier 2 from that influenced area and the adjacent maps would drop with the modified higher tier right?
a tier 2 map can drop from a t16 map
lower can always drop, but not higher than +2
buy them, or make it so they are the only ones you have upgraded, that way if you get a t6 drop those are the ones that will drop
if you pull out all your other watch stones and run t5, then atoll etc should be the t6's that dropp
@copper kernel I was talking about what can drop IN a tier 2, not where a tier 2 map can drop
if you run any t5, then any completed t6s you have will drop. If you want ones you havent run to drop then they need to be either adjacent or in the same region i think
I mean, i never ran t6 atoll but i did the tier 2 and when it upgraded to t6 it says T6 atoll completed, so im guessing it counts?
yeah that counts as completed
yeah np
basically upgrade one region to yellow. Run all the t5 you have, and any t6 that will drop is in that yellow regino
T6 atol can drop from any T4 rare or T5 blue if it's already revealed
👌 👌 👌
It's funny how map sustain will never matter again
as long as this system is in place
map sustain made me quit the game when i played betrayal league
It does get worse when you hit T14-16
I have all 32 watchstones, only running t14-t16
At the start its very plentiful though
Oh, wow, nice
nice nice
But i have no will to run maps anymore even, all i want is to fight the awakener, but spawning him once takes 3 hours
And thats honestly too much time if you dont even need maps or currency anymore
The biggest hump I think is getting to 16 stones, at that point you only need to buy level 4 maps, not weird 1-3 maps
Its not hard to get to 16 stones if you use the watchstones correctly
basically you have the option between "high map drops" and "focused map drops" mode
depending on how many citadels you socket fully
Sure, but there's too many ways to socket "incorrectly" and make it way harder on yourself
yeah its not very intuitive
I made a guide on how to do focused, and even then, there's still tons of questions on how to do it
like I did... xD I locked new vastiri with 3 watchstones on the warlord while not having the map pool to do it, and low damage so I struggle against the warlord 
I think the system is fine more or less, its just awakener spawning that's terribly designed in my opinion
not being able to progress the mapping till I kill him
Biggest mistake I see is people putting in 1st two watch stones right away, getting T6 maps from two zones, putting a 3rd & 4th in the same area then running a T6 map and locking up 4 watchstones
jup thats me xD
They should prevent influence from spawning from maps that don't match your atlas
I also find it very weird how sextants work now
Basically you get influence over an area, so now you want to run maps of that area, perfect time for a sextant
but you cant put one
because your watchstones were "stolen"
Ah, yeah maybe once you hit 32 stop citadel from being stolen?
yeah
honestly all i want is a way to get to the awakener fight faster
shaper you could just buy fragments or run 4 maps, elder didnt despawn if you didnt kill him
Awakener its 3 hours+ per try
Yeah, Uber elder you could spawn in like 15 maps at most, 8 of which were the guardians
Red elder took forever to spawn through
yeah and thats fine
but if you died he stayed there
and you could practice forever for the cost of 1 map
Awakener takes forever to set up and if you die you start all over
I have literally no idea how the atlas works now, I put my stones in and my citadel disappears LUL
run more maps in that area now
Are the colored areas where theres an active conqueror?
Ye
So if I only want say t6 drops from tirns end then I should either have the other areas white or red?
And just slap 1 or 2 in tirns
yeah
Is there a compiled list of what organs each map drops?
like this but human readable
if i have 16 watchstones do i need to kill Sirus before i can gather anymore? or is finding the exiles just rng from now on until i kill him
bad rng again
i feel like the master missions should be on the map device instead of having to talk to the master itself, no?
i constantly forget to talk to zana
It just a matter of practice and getting used to talking to the masters, but yeah would be nice if it was on the map device.
i just do zanas missions though, i dont really understand the other league mechanics and too lazy to read on them
@shrewd gulch You need to do the Sirus fight you get after getting the 16th watchstones
you dont need to win though
You are missing out on a lot of map sustain/currency/rewards/ect. by skipping those, but if that's how you enjoy playing the game nothing wrong with that. 🙂
I'm so glad you dont need any master stuff for map sustain anymore
I just use zana and nothing else
which master stuff did you need before?
i used to do temple and delve
but how did it contribute to map sustain
you got maps from there
ah i see
Temple is essentially one super big map with different reward rooms (including a map reward room), Delve cities can also drop a lot of maps.
I'm already rolling in maps now with just the atlas
well i liked delve
so it isnt that necessary anymore. Worth it for the other rewards there or a change of pace if you like that
but the part where u have super over levelled and have to go down for ages
is kinda aids
but its fun
They adjusted the scaling a while ago so it is a lot better.
This league I was further in delve than my map levels.
Now with the awakened bonus maps drop like candy just mapping with chisel+alch
where can i see the awakened bonus?
middle of the atlas
where the usual completion bonus is too
you fist see it when you socket 4 stones into the same citadel
@bronze cave how many watchstones do you have?
also what you said about after 16 stones worked, thanks
I don’t get reddit whining about the new atlas
It’s superior to the old atlas in virtually every way
Target farming is a lot harder which is one thing a lot of players enjoyed
SSF for example is a lot harder without it.
But atlas progression is significantly easier in ssf now
To be fair it wasn't that hard before anyway (assuming you knew what you were doing)
Because you don’t need one specific map to spread influence, just any map in a region
Also note people enjoy complaining so if there is anything to complain about people will do it.
the higher the tier, the more quality/quantity of drop? like exalts?
Target farming a single map is nearly impossible, it is very easy to target farm a specific region though
anyone have a good resource for atlas mechanics?
Gonna have to be more specific then that
as in, what has changed eli5
should i be completing each tier still to get map drop bonuses etc
Why cant i see certain map on the atlas? is it hidden because it only appears when theres a watchstone in some part of the map?
or just not discovered
the former
can some1 explain or link me to a guied on how to get more watchstones afteryou get your first 4 pls?
And if its not visible for me atm, doing it will not complete it, right? because i killed the boss but didnt get a completed sign
If you just want super cut down easiest method: Only put stones in the 4 central areas at the start. Put 1 stone in 1, 2 in another, 3in a third then 4 in the final central region
Only put stones in when you hit the number you want, so if you have 4, slot 1 in, then slot 2&3 in another region and store the 4th
Probably most people doing it this way but...look at organs when you "craft" boss. Rare organs is not always best. For example i had blue organ that drops 6-linked unique body armour. But i saw some streamers just fill up first ones that fills up bars the most.
Also unless u outgear the content severely ur looking at organs to make sure ur not gonna rip to som bs combo of mods + map mods
That too. I avoid extra life and life regen. That's no-no.
what mobs should you not use in metamorph?
Been doing t5 maps to get the t6 influenced maps but with little luck, im mostly getting a lot of t4s. Is 65% atlas bonus too low? should i increase it before doing the influence stuff?
You mean mods on organ or? that depends...on build. How good gear you are. You should know pros and cons of your build. I just think extra life and life regen are kinda overtuned. Without that mod i destroy boss but with those i need like 1min or so
Does this line mean that each arrow stacked will add this damage or is this damage added at the end after it calculates the arrow damage?
U get 1 of those per arrow
Guys I have fail on Sirus, i'm trying to spawn Conqs again but after more than 50 t14+ , nothing's happened, do you have some tips ?
picture, thousand words, all that jazz
i took it 😄
It's random so :/
Do I need to do the exact Map + same tier of the atlas ?
Or can I just run Higher tier like ... Fully t14+
the map has to be at least the region level
i get the random bit, but the Region Level: # is a bit confusing
and your region has to have 4 Watchstones slotted to find an exile after Sirus
Ok @eager terrace So I can ... do ALL maps tier 16 and it will work ( it's an exemple"
ok
but for my pic above - Blue Orb - Not Obtained - Region Level: 0 Required to spawn Exile -- is that saying i need no orbs socketed, or 0 or more (so any #)?
has anyone seen an orb of awakening yet?
ok, and if it says Region Level 2, then 2 or more i assume?
yeah
i am almost positive that influenced maps, on average, drop significantly less general loot than non-influenced maps. anyone else experience this? i dont feel like doing a large experiment, but if i have to..
Any idea when they're going to have organs auto pickup?
Soon(tm)
im waiting for em to make it so minions take less damage vs sirus so i can try the fight again
Oh this is painful question. My minions are not living past whites even..
What skill to use with it? Maby L'll try
boys , I think i ruined my map. I have no t14s, Any way to get more keystones so I can build up to this or do I just need to buy maps to clear influence
hey guys, has anyone done sirus and gotten a guardian to spawn after doing him? Either success or fail?
yep just really low chances
yeah at 19 stones atm I think
is there a bug where you dont get organs/other loot from the league mechanic when you put too much stuff in it?
got no organ/no div cards/no currency
only got rare talismans
is there any real difference between different colored watch stones? No matter if I put a green red yellow or blue one in a certain region, the same maps appear
The colour matters for interaction with the areas where you haven't spawned an exile of that colour
It's not immediately intuitive but it makes sense. I think it could be updated
is there a sirius guide somewhere? I think I just literally died 6 times before he was even targetable, im missing some visual queue or im just plain dumb
is there a way to target farm specific parts? I get a liver or eyes for every 600 of every other part
hey, have you guys changed chiseling strategy? Do you use them just like pre 3.9, or are you saving them/money? Currently they're 3chisels:1c. With atlas progression being longer journey, chiseling them from t10+ maps would be draining on economy I think
for example, do you instead use chisels mostly for key maps needed for spawning conquerors/completing for atlas bonus or higher tier maps in general ?
im saving em rn, not sure when to use them tbh
niceee
either rng or mirror currency
@vast gazelle what map tiers are you currently on?
@red wharf t9-12
hey so anyone know why augment orbs lower the catalyst quality?
because quality gets consumed when crafting
What sort of prices are metamorph parts selling for?
is it possible for people to keep the discussion to metamorph in here instead of half of it being conqueror stuff that could go in #1┃endgame-help
sry if this comes off as rude but i try to read interesting metamorph mechanics and all i see is atlas completion stuff lol
arent conquerors part of the metamorph league
Nah, they're hanging around, that's a core game rework
metamorph parts sell for trash apart for livers (if i remember correctly) since you get a inflex of other organs
Can they actually be sold via poetrade or the official trade website?
Most likely but it will be as annoying as selling Timeless Jewels pretty much
Poetrade will let you, but there are a whopping two sellers there
I mean the realm just restarted
Oh lmfao of course, it's only showing those online.
Looking like eyes are going at around 4-5c apiece. Livers are cheaper, around 2-3c
mb I'll sell some of the spare parts, gotta afford my Nebuloch somehow :<
I have a whole stash of iLevel 80+ parts but like no eyes at all
Weirdly enough I've got three eyes, and only one of all the others
I wish there would be another level of metamorphs
Like you get normal parts from maps and even stronger parts from those in Tane's lab
i wish i could fight the ones in the lab more often
but i seem to be lacking parts -.-
Lab fights are way too easy compared to what they throw at you in t16s
I haven't been brave enough to test anything in lab yet, how rough is a mostly-level-72 metamorph?
Or, in general actually. Better or worse than their map-tier counterparts?
Its dead before you can even attack it
lab giga morphs are a lot easier than map metamorphs because they have no map modifiers
lmao
I'm ~76 on a jugg so it's probably not dead quite that fast
But the lack of map mods is a v good point
I mean Metamorphs in maps below t14-ish are pretty easy in general
Everything above that is oof
If you can even kill them
I had a 900% more monster life one with 5 regen mods
redeemer has been on my atlas for over 35 maps, and ive run 20+ in her influence, still dont have her fucking citadel
anyone know what these are?
any unique that only drops in a zone with the [League] tag
items that were restricted to old leagues
so for example, Headhunter :p
neat ig
Oh shit I need that for my new character, geif, haven’t priced it might be 1c for all I know
Never mind forgot I decided to go CI 🙄
does it make any difference to teh drops if you happen to die while fighting the metamorph boss?
no
drops in PoE are never affected by how much you die or fuck up a fight as long as you manage to kill it
no, actually that's a lie, for uber elder it matters if you let shaper die
but that's the onlyone I think of
ya, my bad
when ggg is going to add autopick up
later this week
^ maybe
someone from GGG earlier said here that it's still in testing and changes might happen
and they can't give an ETA
so don't hold your breath
would be nice though, alot of clickity click atm
hi PAPA 🙂
Is there a right way to use the metamorph blender? Or is it just dump all the rarest shit in randomly
high ilvl = more bar filled = more loot
other than that combine the bonuses you want from the pieces I guess
if you die to the metamorph in the arena you lose the metamorph, right?
I haven't died yet so not sure but I presume it works like the bestiary encounter
which would mean yes
it's quite hard to fail them as they are very easy
My first one was super nervous, but was very easy
I'm just not sure if I want to dump all my gg i83 organs in it since my char is quite squishy ;)
Do it !!
spectacular
died right before it died so it dropped nothing
I can loot that stuff too
oh well, just a few ex in loot lost :P
oh damn
I’m honestly not even doing the metamorph stuff until they add auto pick up, it takes too much for the little loot I’ve gotten so far
I have been doing it up to level 90 but cba now, onto my second character and I’m not bothering
your loss
it's literally not that big a deal
for something that can guarantee you 6l and other useful things
for literal free money
not exactly free its more of opportunity cost for max returns out of single map
Eh I got an exalt while levelling each character that’s more than any metamorph has given me
The one you dont do could have dropped a mirror
make sure to open every barrel too, everything is mirror
i got an ex from a rock in chamber of sins once
Got 2 so far in this game from barrels
I’ve gotten six exalts and like 5 of them were from currency metamorphs so you better believe I am going for em
Last time I went to the lab I had 1 metamorph drop an exalt and a divine
Feels fairly common from them
I got a 6l lithe, a 21/23 vaal arc and a 21/23 vaal blight from metamorphs so far
definitely worth as far as I am concerned
and those are just the big drops
I got a hyrri's ire chest from one
yea theyre honestly quite good
Picking up metamorph stuff makes it take even longer until i can spawn awakener again
so im not doing it anymore
I mean do whatever you enjoy
Yeah
I'm praying for a patch that changes the accessibility of awakener fight
I dint like to click all the organs on he ground but its worth it for me
I wont be playing much until after christmas, until then we hopefully have auto pickup
we will
and maybe it doesnt take ages to spawn the big dude anymore
Well no when we get auto pick up it’s Just do the map, click click click new boss boom
I don't understand watchstones, different guides say to use them on the inner maps but the ones I'm getting look like they can only be applied to outer maps
Some maps drop very high amounts of organs. Do more drop than can fit in the thingy?
They aren’t specific to any citadel
And yes papa
You get lots to chose from but a lot of them are ‘useless’
when I try and socket in an inner map it says something like 1 required and it won't let me socket it in any region other than the one where it dropped
Sure, but if u have 8 hearts, can you scroll them?
Like there's only 6 or so slots in each row of an organ
Oh you mean scroll through them, I don’t think more would drop than what appears in the window
Plus the ‘best’ ones are always on the left
Hmmm, ok then . Tx
this map CAN drop the incomplete connected one, right? https://i.imgur.com/9FzsK9k.jpg
even if it's higher tier?
correct me if I am wrong, but the uncompleted map can only drop if it is tier 6 or lower, since you can only drop 2 tiers higher than the map you are running
Do catalysts apply to crafted mods?
yes, applied
i am currently chasing my 6th watch stone, and got an area influenced, can i do another area and have that also influenced? or should i just keep camping map in my current influenced area?
you can have multiple areas influenced at the same time. but keep in mind that once they influence a region you can't alter the amount of watchstones in that region till they are killed in that region
thanks a lot bro
Does the conquerers' health scale with awakening level at the time they spawn? or when the influence starts?
Anyone know how to summon sirus again if you lost 1st time?
you have to spawn all of the conquerer's again and fight them I believe.
so 3 maps in each zone I think?
wow that takes forever, thanks tho
uh... i've loaded 2 instances and i haven't found any metamorphs.. i know i'm in league
You don't find metamorphs
So is Sirus strength affected by how many stones are in the atlas total?
or is it the awakened level?
awakened level
and 0 has no drops right?
yep
is 1 alot harder? I kinda just wanna learn his mechanics
not sure if I should try 1 or 0
Well he has big attacks, blobs that block you and force you to move
Just play sabo easy awakener because sabo is dumb
you say that but most farmers are summoners
Ok sabo and necro, both braindead
if you say so
i dont understand why i dont have citadel in valdos rest yet?
how am i supposed to progress
do a t3 map in that region
The first citadels spawn in the corner areas
The section that the exile is in will change colour on your atlas
Oh nevermind yeah looks like you might have just not clicked into it to activate it in the area so like NoName said just run a t3
What does filling up the bar in Tane's lab do?
if you fill the bar it drops a unique part
I mean in Tane's lab
I just filled up the bar there with Ilvl 80+ parts and it was glowing just as the bar does in regular maps
But once I killed the metamorph nothing happened. Nothing of particular value or such
:x
why does sometimes when i fill the bar of the metamorph boss on a map its full but not glowing?
is it random whether I can get a part or not in each map?
or do only specific maps have the ability to drop meta parts?
full but not glowing would be like, 99.9% full
imagine when something is alive but you can barely see its hp
but it happens this often?
just use 1 higher tier piece in one of the slots
altho sometimes a map flatout wont have the right spawns for a piece to drop
it happens
You (probably?) have to use at least one unique part from the map boss to make the bar fill. Some maps may not spawn enough high-rarity parts to make it possible to fill the bar, and that's lame but whatever :/
it happens like every 3rd map or so
Your map tier is too low if that's happening. Once you're in red maps, pretty much every metamorph will drop an organ
are you alching your maps
How does one get access to Tane's lab? Is it a unique map or something?
talk to him
No obvious menu item on him I could see (does it only appear once you have a full set of organs?)
nah I was there before I had a full set I’m pretty sure
hmm ok, I mjst just have been blind when I looked. Will check again this evening!
So I have 1 watchstone in each of the four corner areas. What do I need to do to progress? Go for the inner 4 areas? Socketing the corners makes them t6+ so running the original t3-4 will never give me yellow maps. I don't get it. Plese help 🙂
Yeah from there put em into center things and spawn there
And work your way around the atlas farming up more stones
Okay, So I socket them in 1 stone in each corner. Then focus on running 3 (or more?) maps in the inner areas?
Nono
You put one each into the center zone citadels
Farm up maps in those regions
Get the conquerors there
Then pick 1 or 2 regions and put more stones at a time in them
i got my 16th influenced zone but i cannot get the citadel to spawn, ive ran 6 different maps in the zone of the correct tiers but the boss fight isnt spawning, what do i do>?
and i cant get other influence to spawn probably because this is the last influence i can get before the awakener
you sure you're running them at upgrade level 3?
and that you're running 3 distinct maps?
yes
ive ran 6 different maps same tiers as the zone
and 2 maps i reran in vain hope
what does the quest sidebar say to do?
im gonna try a higher tier map now maybe it thinks its 4 watchstones even though its 3
and apparently that was indeed what happened
do influenced items only drop from citadels? I have awakening level 4 which saysa 20% chance to drop items in influenced zones but i havent gotten a single drop outside of citadels
is the awakening map drop bonus additive, or a separate roll for upgrade?
i've been told additive
I just failed the Sirus the Awakener bossfight after getting 16 orbs and influence isn't spreading despite me doing maps in the correct zone. Do I need to kill him in order to progress? My quest says "Explore the Atlas and defeat the Elderslayers"
It's not gaurenteed after the 16
its only a chance to spawn them, you can get very unlucky
how to progress? do i just w/e maps?
I feel like the ux on the box column on the left is unfinished
It should show what is Socketed without highlighting
what is the diffrence between the chest icon for currency and chaos icon for currency on an organ?
@sly tusk some say region level 0 required to spawn exile
others say 4
like this
do i just run those maps or wtf?
I havent spawn any conqueror in forever
i fucked up the awakener fight, now i have one area marked but no one is spawning anymore, ran like 10 maps in that area and nothing is happening, how do i get him back 😦
I'd try it chromenut
did any1 notice that additional currency item organ has both chest and chaos orb icon?
I've seen the chest apply for a rare weapon or armor I think as well.
Chest is random reward.
has GGG stated whether or not the next patch will fix the influence not doing influence bug?
Influence not doing influence bug?
@mortal yarrow I’ve had a conqueror spawned for 2 days now and she refuses to influence any map from her region
can you do me a favour and screenshot the area for me? @coarse moon
mhm
dm it when you can then :)
@last axle it looks like you are running that area with region lvl 1, take out your watchstone and run it then. You do need to target the watchstones for your areas once you get to that point
The region levels are exact, not "at least". You need the exact level stated to get a conquerer to spawn.
I'm not sure about that. I was able to spawn conquerors using higher tier maps &Watchstones than required
you sure you didnt spawn the higher level ones? As far as I can tell you have to do one at each tier, but you can do the higher level ones before the lower. Cuz I cant seem to spawn another at lvl 3 on mine (maybe just awful luck)
I have 30/32 watchstones so you tell me
hmmm, delve city map boxes dont work ?
but did you for sure do like 2-3 of them at the same level in the same zone? or did you just rush to red maps and do them all then?
I rushed 4 watchstones &then did every region individually cause that way you can target farm maps
anyone know if i can run the same map 20 times to spawn exile after 17th watchstone? or does it have to be different maps?
Metamorph encounters can also drop Catalysts, a new type of currency item that adds quality to jewellery. There are many types of jewellery quality, each related to a set of mods. The quality value on a piece of jewellery scales up the magnitude of related mods on the item and can be consumed through crafting to increase the chances of rolling related mods.
region level 2 required == 2 socketed watchstones?
at least 2
ok cool - so I'm having a hard time understanding how the map tiers work. Say I have two socketed watchstones in a region I need and my Haunted Mansion on the atlas is Tier9. But, I only have a tier 4 or 5 or whatever it is map (the base one), does running this map count or what or how does that work?
see it as shaper's orb before
the map was T4 orginally
you have now made it T9
so you will start getting the T9 from now on
thats how i understand it atleast
so if I run the baseline version of the map will that have a chance to generate influence or does it need to be the tier on the atlas?
need to be the tier
ok awesome, that is helpful - thanks
but as i said im not 100% sure
it said region required not region equal, but region equal is must
never had it appear when i ran maps from previous levels personally
afaik the entire mechanic is rippy stuff
Yeah, people get oneshot with really tanky jugg builds
avoid everything, sitting in hideout is most survivable
^ wise words
Dont even create a character
play trade league the way it was meant to be played
no way you die then
well, almost no way
a wild sylas has appeared
remember that bug were ppl could summon monsters in hideout
was cuz of ppl raising spectres that summoned mobs on death i believe
even without bugs you can accidentally kill yourself with flasks
true
or intentionally, if that's your thing
@mortal yarrow okay i figured out what was causing what i thought was a bug
your AL needs to match/exceed the bonus AL on the influenced map you are running in order to get progress
ahhh
ok how do you fix your awakener fight if the portals on the door
i hate when this happens 😦
is it me or is metamorph kinda 70% not worth the effort at low levels
Yeah, pretty much. It felt easy at the very beginning, then got too difficult until like act 7 or something.
it helped with the start of the league, dropping some currency etc
i gues on a 2nd character, it'd be useless
in levelling
if you can't consistently kill them, then it's probably more harmful
Is there a known bug with not spawning the last elderslayer
stuck on 31 watchstones for several hours now
Not to like be sceptical/worrysome, but the update for instantly getting the metamorph organs should be coming soon right; otherwise they might be on christmas leave
Is there any metamorph boss exclusive unique
Ah thanks @silver kettle !
does anyone know if the mechanics are random for spawning guardians after the first sirus fight? Seems kind of bugged
it's definitely not 3 maps and they spawn thats for sure
Seems like I have to run like 5-8 t14 region level 4 maps just to get the influence then another 5-8 more to finally get to fight them in their citadel
anyone know what the rules are on encountering conq influence AFTER initially spawning them? can i just do the same map over and over?
and it's def rng on when u find them after spawning
anyone playing wild strike (lighting ) ?
@cursive widget they actually specificed that it wasnt 3 maps after first 4
Has anyone figured put what does the chaos orb and chest icon mean for "additional currency"
no, but based on the above, I'm thinking quality vs quantity
@violet nymph pre-16 watchstones it's guaranteed to encounter when you run a map in that zone. You can run map A, B, A or A,B,C, but no permutations where you repeat the same map twice.
That rule holds true for post 16, except now your chance to encounter is 33%. Once encountered it's 100% chance to meet them in the next 2 maps in that zone.
weird.. i'm on post 16 and i haven't re-encountered al hezminn at all after spawning him
idk what i'm doing wrong
for me it's literally always worked, so I have to assume that's just how it works.
so i'm either super unlucky or doing something wrong
Any time I get them to spawn, so long as I run a map in that area, they always reappear in the next 2 maps
that or I'm getting stupid lucky
already up to like 20 watchstones
yeah, here's the thing, i marked it on my atlas
the numbers on each map are the amt of times i've ran that map since spawning al-hezminn
and i've never ran any map more than once consecutively
but i haven't seen him again since he spawned
lol
so in 12 maps he's just been absent ?_?
maybe the inner maps are different?
also have you checked your hideout to make sure zana doesn't have a mission for you
cause they don't give you a quest popup on the side after 16
yeah i know, and nah she doesn't
fuck I was really hoping I solved it there
i've attempted sirus twice and i have twenty watchstones as well but yea
cant re-encounter the snake boy anymore it seems
by my luck the patch notes for 3.9.1 coming up here will say something about bugged conquerors lmao
there's definitely been a few of those already
Goodfuckingdamn it

I can choose my bodypart i want from the bosses
How nice is that
Apparently not anyway, doesnt work after the patch atleast
If i don't fight sirius, can the other conquerers still spawn?
hay the patchnotes say u can choose which part u want to get heart liver brain etc? how does that work or its bugged currently???
Quick question regarding the Baron fight: If you want to do the Conditional challenge for Baron with the mana tiles, can you stand on the side and have someone else being affected by it? And you still get the challenge completion?
@violet nymph You cannot choose, but now every part can drop from every boss. Before, each boss could drop only some of the 5 parts.
oh so i missunderstand that ! thanks
so you mean the drop chance for the uniq organs are equal now? correct me if I'm wrong
20% for each I believe yes
I just experienced a wrong warp I entered the Vaal area at 1 and exited the first area at the entrance to 2
Yeah, that happens in any zone that has multi vaal side areas in it.
