Contracts aren't really that bad

#

If anything they should just lower the amount of doors overall that's it

slow rampart
#

yeah, the amount of doors is prob biggest factor which is why i dont run heists much atm, rather do delirium mirrors/maps atm

valid mist
#

The funny thing is if the doors didn't exist, or were fewer, there would also be less bugs

#

If you do an agility contract and get 3 doors in and 3 doors out that's up to a minute of literally standing, waiting, doing fuck all.

unless they are good crafting bases already I don't think they will be that valuable as bases

no idea

like increased phys modifiers on like a jeweled foil seems like a decent base

Ok so i know that you need a total of >161 dex across 3 rings to make an onslaught ring in synthesis league, but does that mean rings have to be >ilv82 (t1 dex) to be able to drop with onslaught from heist chests?

Anyone ever found anything worthwhile in the Unique reward rooms?

is agility still broken or is it just tullina?

quaint shadow
#

Neither

I've been running contracts endlessly for 2 days and sometimes they get stuck in corners or vinderi gets stuck in his demolition loop, but u can just chain them away and reset and theyll do it right

I also did multiple GH's with Tullina with no issues

#

sharp iron
#

I feel that somewhere out there's someone with low chaos resistance that deliberately avoids doing any heists in the laboratory, or a Divine Flesh build that does all the Laboratory Heists they can do since they can essentially walk through the traps.

next epoch
#

There is. My Golden Rule build basically ignores those traps 🙂

sharp iron
#

Ah, right. I forgot about those and thoughts it was just Divine Flesh builds that are basically impervious to Chaos damage.

velvet palm
#

what's CI

valid isle
#

the chaos damage in lab is too all over the place

#

i can do about 20 of them without watching my HP dip at all

#

then i will get one shotted randomly

#

honestly, my current build is pure that though

#

30k armor, 30k evade, 5.2k life, perma fortify, capped all resists.
I do 99% of everything without a scratch then just explode randomly

#

yep lol

#

its annoying :p

cosmic charm
#

is it best to open all the small chests other than currency? or is it always better to open large chests?

cunning blade
#

only open good large chests tbh

#

currency, fragments, delirium etc

celest hound
#

is there a consensus on the best way to roll contracts? alch and go, or something more nuanced? I'm wondering about risk vs reward.

celest hound
#

I'm not noticing a huge difference in chest loot from running magic vs rare.

sour fox
#

Quantity only applies to mob drops

celest hound
#

I guess the balance then is between more deadly mods and more "max alive reinforcements" vs. more alert level reduction

#

and of course the ultimate balance of dying means you lose it all right?

weak trout
#

i alch all of my contracts, the reduced alert raising is very noticeable

#

and blueprints ill roll to like 28+% reduced raising of alert

celest hound
#

blueprints definitely, makes sense to maximize those

#

I guess it depends on the goal. If it's to always open all chests, then I can see wanting to have as much alert reductin as possible. Right now I'm just grinding out reveals, so I want to have decent returns but more or less guarantee I never brick one.

#

Plus I can just stack alert reduction on merc gear to help.

weak trout
#

can always just chaos if it bricks

celest hound
#

Oh, I meant brick as in me dying in it

weak trout
#

yeah, thatll be really build dependent though

celest hound
#

Sure. I'm not that good to just ignore map mods and juice everything to the max.

weak trout
#

but the 25% alert level reduction from a typical alch is 30% or so more chests you can open, outside of lockdown shenanigans

celest hound
#

Is that 25% more than a magic one, or just 25%-ish from alching?

weak trout
#

if youve got a crew fully leveled/geared you can get away with less with crew like nenet/tullina/karst, but others youll need the alch to get most to all of the chests

#

compared to normal, magics often have 10-11% reduction which is about as much more chests

celest hound
#

Yeah, that matches my experience. And sometimes even with just that, if I get a smallish map I can still get to all the chests without popping the lockdown timer

#

I'll probably care about this more once I'm at high level contracts; I'm only running high-70s right now

blissful cargo
#

Hey guys and galls, Does any one know if smugglers caches are still around? Haven't found any in about 25 maps

#

They are, yeah. 10% chance to spawn, so going 25 maps without is definitely not unheard of.

eager terrace
#

fwiw I only transmute contracts

#

only really find blueprints worth rolling rare

#

but I also only really run lockpicks / deceptions

quaint junco
#

got a weird quest not sure how to finish it. It wants me to steal the curio case without setting off the alarm. How do you perform this?

void wing
#

Just poorly worded afaik.

still mural
#

"without setting off the alarm" just means "don't fill the alert bar & let the timer expire before getting the target item", basically

#

cause once time expires the case (and all chests) are locked down and can't be opened

grand galleon
#

can someone explain to me why in the 13/13 bp that everyone fractures for streamers they can open every big chest but i'm at full alert with only half of them?

#

are there specific items i need to give karst/vinderi to allow for that?

quaint junco
#

There are items that allow you to reduce the alert level. But idk what all they are only one i've seen is the torn cloak.

still mural
#

presumably they're running with specific item mods for -alert on chests, yeah

Hey,the amount of markers i get for a heist is like 1k~ .for a grand heist i need like 25k~ to reveal the wings and most important reward rooms and escape rooms.so i at least have to do 25 heist to do a gradn heist....any tips?

sour mountain
#

crystal belt is a jewellery, not an armor

grand galleon
#

@indigo wolf It was Cutedog’s from yesterday. I ran the exact same blueprint and he could open every reward chest and I was at full alert halfway through

#

So it’s not legacy gear but maybe I need something else

#

Does character level affect it maybe? Maybe I need a +4 character level cloak for Karst?

vague glen
#

anyone here capable of killing sirus?

pale salmon
#

Anyone got a cheat sheet for best items to set up the rogues with and best way to craft grand heists for best returns?

#

Or a guide in general

sacred wyvern
#

Basically if you want to split blueprints
You need a blueprint with vinderi in a lot of wings (4 wings), preferably with karst, nenet and/or tullina and all characters with reduced alert gear.
A lot of currency chests if you have the trinket

#

If you just want to run blueprints you have, get ruduced alert so you can open all chests.
Just craft the blueprint with a lot of increased quant

eager terrace
#

you also want +1 primary jobs on your rogues

#

at least the rogues that affect alert with their perks

#

cutedog doesn't open every small chest though in that blueprint

#

it's not needed since those chests do not ever change so you can skip the ones you know don't drop good stuff

#

so the short version is like CLOAK: alert reduction for chests, % chance to not generate alert opening chest, lockdown time, whatever else

#

JOB GEAR: +1 all jobs / primary job, % chance to not generate alert on X type chest, lockdown time, whatever else

#

WEAPON: lockdown time, whatever you want

#

BROOCH: chance to duplicate currency, quant, whatever you prefer

#

remember that weapons can give you added flat damage which can be slightly relevant if you run reflect

barren crescent

@indigo wolf thx

torpid pewter
#

Does alert level affect spawn rate when you steal the artifact and trigger a lockdown? The higher the alert level, the more intense the response on lockdown?

novel root
#

hello everyone, im starting to do atlas - do i need to complete all tier 1 maps or is it okay to skip tiers? will i miss any completion bonus if i do skip tiers?

torpid pewter
#

you can jump around

the only thing you lose out on is map drop probability and percentage boosting for higher tier maps from mobs

#

You can always come back to those later

@gloomy carbon

gloomy carbon
#

Yes, I'm aware of that, I'm saying I haven't noticed a difference with 3x15% rolls. So I'm questioning if anybody has actually been up to tell if it actually works? or how?

sharp iron
#

How do you find an Astrolabe Amulet?

#

Is there like a "Has experimental base types" blueprint type that has those as an option?

#

My league goal is to get an Astrolabe Amulet with one affix of every influence type, so I'm trying to decide whether buying one or trying to find one is the better way to go.

sharp iron
#

Alright

#

I don't know the exact odds of getting an influenced mod instead of a normal mod, but I estimated that the chance of getting that set of affixes to be about 1/500 for each reroll. Which might sound like a lot, but it doesn't have to be from chaos. Alchemy orbs and reasonators are also able to reroll a new set of affixes.

So it should be do-able.

#

I actually have 30 chaos right now so I could buy the base right now, or at least soon.

#

It'll be nice for me to actually complete the league goal I have planned for once.

civic wyvern
#

So what does the +1 to job level do exactly?

cunning blade
#

does what it says it does

void wing
#

A rogue's intrinsic perk scales with highest job level, this is the benefit of + job level.

civic wyvern
#

@void wing so what does character level do then?

#

@eager terrace what does job level do over character level?

eager terrace
#

increasing primary job level increases the strength of their perk

void wing
#

Character level is as good as a dead stat.

civic wyvern
#

gotcha

eager terrace
#

character level basically just makes them do more damage

civic wyvern

#

if i run grand heist and open so many boxes that bar fills all - do i have time for lockdown as on normal heists?

rigid stream
#

You mostly need it for running Back during lockdown because there is a Penalty to Speed during it

#

And Blueprints are a Hit or miss cause every room costs Like 7C to unlock, so you need to be picky which you unlock

Speed doesnt Clash with the good stats

So having it is only a Bonus

Uh - cost and dmg

And XP gain

Which is useless after max lvl

edgy pond
#

is it me or demolition is bugged

#

despite having demo speed and other mods, it seems like it only runs at its default speed

sharp iron
#

Personally, if I were to design a fight like the Twins where you fight two bosses at once, what I would do is have the bosses do this combo where one of them charges up this super choerographed attack, and the other drops a currency or otherwise valuable item into the area where the attack hits right before it launches.

It would clearly show the enemies working together, and it would being a new dynamic into the fight. If you paying attention then obviously an item dropping mod-fight is suspicious. But it toys with your instincts and if you're not giving the game full focus, it could result in an easy death.

#

If the Twins pulled something like that off, that would make them feel more cunning then most PoE villains. Because they trick the player and not the player character.

still mural
#

job speed increases only affect the bit where the bar fills up; they don't speed up any other part of the animation. for jobs like demolition and agility, the bar filling is a fairly small part of the overall animation, so it doesn't have that much effect. @edgy pond

did they fix the heist traps or whatever people were dying to?

#

heard it stated in notes that it got fixed but it was a scamaz.

#

so i stopped touching heists(i play ssfhc).

still mural
#

it's easy to avoid even if they didn't fix it (though I think they did)

pliant sapphire
#

what was going on?

still mural
#

so in trap heists, there are corridors with mines that your rogue needs to disarm. some of these corridors are active when you enter, which is fine. some of them are not active when you enter and activate/arm when you trigger the lockdown.

#

the issue is whether they trigger when the timer starts, or when it ends

#

previously they activated when the timer started, so if you were trying to open chests during the lockdown, you might wind up with a hallway of traps in your way

#

now they're (supposed to) arm when the timer ends/when you open the target item case, so that won't be an issue

pliant sapphire
#

but you could still see the trap regardless right? I remember spotting those untriggered ones and preparing myself for them

still mural
#

but you can just keep an eye out for those narrow hallways, much like you should be keeping an eye out for perception rooms

#

yep

pliant sapphire
#

alright cool, thank you.

You couldn't disarm them from the side you would be in that case btw.

ANy signals that they are going to nerf heist XP?

Anyone knows how the blueprint reveals work from normal heists? Refering to "Added information to the Contract UI screen and at the completion of a Heist to tell you if the area level of the Heist would be or was too low to grant Blueprint Reveals upon completion."

still mural
#

if you put a contract into adiyah's interface and it's too low level to get a reveal, a warning shows up on that ui @pseudo heart

pseudo heart
#

I'm more confused about how the part where you get a reveal works @still mural I have run 100's of contracts but never once gotten some reveal a blueprint happening after completing the heist? All lvl 83

barren crescent
#

it has no pop up

#

talk to whakano

still mural
#

so you earn a "reveal" with Whakano. You then use that reveal to reveal a wing or a room in a blueprint, by talking to Whakano and putting the blueprint in his interface.

#

it also costs rogue markers

pseudo heart
#

Ah okay, can see that I have 136 reveals there now

#

I thought it implied you had a chance to get a free reveal for no marker cost

still mural
#

Ah! nope

pseudo heart
#

never really noticed that the reveleas were limited since they are so damn expensive compared to the amount you get..

still mural
#

You also earn reveals when you run contracts with Niles, who gives a 10% marker discount, and Gianna, who gives a higher discount based on her deception level

#

generally the marker cost is more significant than the reveal count, so Gianna's reveals are especially important since they can give like a 50% discount if you boost her level

pseudo heart
#

That makes sense, thanks

still mural
#

you access those the same way, just press the arrow next to whakano's portrait (or you can talk to niles/gianna and put the blueprint in their interface the same way, but it's more walking without much reason)

pseudo heart
#

Ah never knew you could change it to reveal with Gianna and Niles, that will save me heaps of marks thanks

still mural
#

I try to only reveal wings with Gianna, as those are the most expensive, and the rest it depends how much it costs and whether I feel like waiting to run heists for more discounted reveals

#

like, if I'm revealing a wing I'm using Gianna to do it; not that I never use Gianna reveals on rooms

You only really reveal with Niles if you have been doing counter thaumaturgy 5 contracts

You keep what you have when you leave, as long as you don't crash or die after setting off the alarm

I guess you could do 100 div card caches without a div brooch then 100 with and see if there is a difference in outcome

@indigo wolf do you think it'll double the cards if we have the currency brooch on your heist mates? lol

The stacked decks

#

don't care much about the regular cards that come from the chests since it's superrrr rare that they're worth much, if anything

#

yea, this whole system is messed up tbh considering that stacked DECKS are considered 'currency' apparently.

lmfao it works @indigo wolf . Just had my first div-chest double the stacked decks

So to get double stacked decks, use a currency brooch

If decks are currency then why the fuck are they not in my currency tab?

still mural
#

idk that they're considered currency, but not everything goes into its respective tab anyway (delirium splinters don't go in the fragments tab, breachlord blessings don't go in a tab...)

#

and stacked decks can go in the catch-all slots at the bottom of the currency tab

#

which already get eaten up by other miscellaneous buillshit that should be in one of the main tabs but gets its own league-specific one for money grubbing reasons (blight)

still mural

personally I put stuff like metamorph, delirium, blight, fossils into their own normal tab, or together with some others in a quad tab; I keep the catch-all slots of the currency tab for stuff I use or fiddle with more often (like stacked decks)

#

also I don't think there's room to put stuff like blight oils into one of the existing tabs shrugR

like currency or fragments would make the most sense, but they're both quite full

You get them from smuggler's caches in maps. Each unique contract has a questline leading up to it, so you need to do the green quest contracts (and it's not the ones for the quest contract challenge) before the unique for that line can drop. The green contracts & the uniques both have a minimum ilvl to drop, which you can probably check on poedb.

the green quest contracts only drop from smuggler's caches in maps; the orange unique contracts can drop from the caches or from the final rooms of heists (and maybe grand heists? I forget) once you've done the green quests that unlock them (which are not the ones in the quest challenge, btw).

I've never seen it have either

usually just alcs&chaos orbs

i invest 10-20c for other blueprints and i get 1ex-3x per BP return

probably has multiple currency rooms in it

opal sparrow

max stack for the currency display for chaos orbs is 10. so it's not really worth it. i has to contain exalted orbs otherwise people wouldn't sell the BP's for 1ex

i just cherry pick any BP's that has lots of currency and harbgringer rooms

i guess there's only one way to find out but to give it a shot XD

tips I'll add:

  • get a trinket ASAP so you can get benefit from it when you run contract heists. doesn't need to be an amazing one, just something that upgrades currency a bit, like chromes to fusings or sommat.
  • learn the way the map looks where perception totems are; it's very noticeable once you learn it. being able to plan for that helps a lot, instead of getting surprised by it

how do you get heist npc equips over tier 2? i am doing lvl 68 maps now, and the npc equips has not changed since i was lvl 20. im still getting torn cloak. is there something i should be doing? i can't seem to google any means of getting the item, aside from buying it from other players

@indigo wolf That got fixed pretty early on. The high-tier/low-level rogue gear was basically useless because almost nobody had rogues that could equip any of it, at that point in the league

what happens if you fill the alert meter prior to opening the curio

it'll go into pre-lockdown with a short timer

if you don't get the curio in that timer it seals up

also any chests you try to open in that state remove 3 seconds from the timer

As you get higher level contracts, you'll start seeing higher tier bases. @winged meteor @indigo wolf

i have now done 3x gradn heists with 16 currency rooms. i have a 2% regal to exa trinket, and the crew have the reccomended t2 more time, less alert level etc. and ive lost somewhere around 4 exa from them. used fractured fossils. what am i doing wrong? i focus on opening all currency chests and everything else i can before lockdown

cunning blade
#

by doing something literally everyone else is doing with the lowest rarity trinket and expecting to make a profit is what you're doing wrong

fracture fossil prices are probably high enough to match 3% trinket profit margins probably at this point in league

With the stones, or other items like that, there are mods to increased damage, is that only for the heist members or do these apply to you as well?

i have a few like that

late ember
#

is there a benefit gearing heist members to get one of their abilities past lvl 5?

eager terrace
#

yeah the strength of their perk is tied to the level of their primary job

#

so like karst for example goes from 40% -> 45% reduced alert of reward chests if he has level 6 lockpick

still mural
#

Yeah, most of them get a solid benefit from boosting their primary job past 5

#

Tibbs being the main exception

late ember
#

ah, got it thanks

hasty forum
#

but tibbs has that double bubble

still mural
#

He can open 2 chests at level 5, yeah. He doesn't get any benefit from going from 5 to 6, though

#

re: which mods to prioritize, I've been aiming for
combat items: %lockdown time prefix, some useful aura suffix (ilvl 81 ideal)
job tools: +job level or all job lvl prefix, ideally %job chest no alert suffix but the prefix is rare enough that it's hard to be picky with the suffix (ilvl 83+ ideal)
cloaks: %lockdown time prefix, -chest alert or %chest no alert suffix (ilvl 82+)
brooches: +quant prefix, dupe currency suffix (ilvl 84 for highest quant tier, otherwise 81+)

#

and of course everything can roll marker discount suffixes, which are nice if you regal into them

#

and for Gianna's brooch +target marker value prefix since I only use her in contract heists

Bruh its going to take 18k marks to reveal the last wing of this heist. Thats going to take so long to get. I like the loot of this league but I'd like to run other stuff too not just trying spending all day on contracts

you can focus on contracts with high value/precious/priceless targets, fwiw

Even the top end only gives 2-3k. I'd have to run 10 of those if not more to reveal last wing and have enough to pay the cost of starting it

And thats if I don't die to lag

#

I swear if I lag out or crash during this grand heist I'm not doing any more heist content.

#

All that grind for the best reward to be 6 chaos and then have the game crash. Or die to lag since they decide to spawn too many enemies in a small area knowing that causes performance issues.

still mural
#

belated, but @stone prairie +reward room monsters is especially good. -max resists is bad (but plain -resists is not so bad if you're overcapped). phys as extra element can be rough. if you care much about the loot along the way, alert increases every 10s and lockdown is instant are bad. also watch for mods that mess with your build's defenses: I avoid chance to dodge is unlucky, for example, but I'm quite happy to run -chance to block since I don't use block.

deception, agility, and I think lockpicking? don't have doors on the way out, so they're a fair bit faster than the others.

Thank you ❤️

oblique tundra
#

+1 to job level doesn't let you break caps.

#

So you still need each of the non-Huck rogues maxed in their specialty to run all level 5 requirement contracts, etc.

warm tendon
#

does job speed effect the animation of the rogues opening doors or only the bar?

oblique tundra
#

It is supposed to only affect the animation. But that's had lots of bugs; dunno if it's fixed for all job types yet.

warm tendon
#

i see ty

still mural
#

+1 job level does let you exceed the normal caps @oblique tundra

oblique tundra
#

It definitely didn't early in the league when I tested.

#

Maybe they changed it

still mural
#

+1 job level, not +1 character level

oblique tundra
#

I'm aware

#

Cool that that works now, thanks!

still mural
#

+1 to their primary job also scales their perk, for most rogues (not Tibbs or Niles)

oblique tundra
#

Does scaling to 6 like that also improve it past 5?

still mural
#

so my Gianna gives a 45% discount (on the reveal screen, for some reason not shown right on that screenshot)

#

yeah

oblique tundra
#

Very cool

still mural
#

so it's very useful for Gianna for a bigger discount (and +1 all jobs lets you take her on a few more contracts, too), Karst for more -alert, etc.

oblique tundra
#

Sure. Vinderi should be really good too

still mural
#

+1 all jobs is ilvl 82+ job gear, +1 specific job is 83; very low weights & both prefixes so it's quite difficult to get both on the same piece of gear, but if you do, it's awesome

#

yep

#

just have to counteract the +alert, but that's manageable

velvet palm
#

@oblique tundra it's not that they changed it, it's just that it literally did nothing early into the league, like most shit

oblique tundra
#

Ah, I see

wooden cloud
#

hmm, so i just assume no one has a problem with the reddit post I posted

#

wrt to tools

devout osprey
#

they said in patchnotes that they fixed job speeds

still mural
#

yeah, job speed is not all that important, since by the time you're looking at minmaxing gear you have their job levels maxed for the inherent speed that gives, and +jobspd only affects the filling of the bar afaik which is only a small portion of the actual time it takes to do the thing

#

so while they fixed the weird bug that was happening, it's still not that important

#

wrt the reddit post, I would say don't overlook useful auras on the weapon suffix, and definitely get +all jobs on as many rogues as you can on the job tools

#

if you can get that on Niles, he gets deception 5 and you don't need to take Gianna on any blueprints anymore (where her perk is useless), so you can go for something like +target marker value on her brooch (since you'll run more contracts with her than any other single rogue, probably)

#

probably worth doing even without +deception on niles, since there still won't be that many blueprints which require deception 5

#

while leveling your rogues, +job xp is also a very useful prefix on all gear, ofc

#

so my list looks more like:
Combat: %lockdown time prefix, useful aura/discount suffix; ilvl 81 is best
Brooch: +quant>%lockdown time prefix, currency dupe > other dupe/discount suffix; ilvl 84+ is best, otherwise 81; avoid 82 & 83
Cloak: %lockdown time prefix, -chest alert/%chest no alert suffix; ilvl 82 is best
Tool: +all job level > +specific job level > +flat lockdown time > %lockdown time prefix, %job chest no alert > discount suffix; ilvl 82+ is best, 83+ for chance at both +job level prefixes

prime rapids

For as much as I like the rewards and new items introduced in this league I hate the content.
Going through the content there isn't much of a challenge and you have multiple attempts but on the way out it spawns so many enemies in such a small space it affects performance and having to wait for doors to open and fighting against game bugs just to die and lose everything really sucks.
Unique contracts are very rare and I have yet to get anything worth while from them . And grand heists take so long to fully reveal that I get 10 if not more of them while trying to unlock 1. I can imagine its faster for someone who plays 12h a day who only grinds heists but the gh I'm currently trying to do I need 18k marks for the last wing and considering I only get 500-1.5k marks per contract its going to take between 10 and 30 contracts just to reveal it. And I'll be lucky to even get that investment back. As far as I can tell contracts and blueprints are worth more to sell then run myself and defeats the entire point of playing the league.

sharp iron
#

I'm kinda the opposite. I love how Heists are purely speed anymore, and you can be a little bit more calculated with them. I think the Doom system with curses worked very well with this league since you can curse an enemy, wait for the curse to get stronger, and then initiate the fight. But when it comes to loot, I don't like how Prophecies are now essentially all about getting them in their sealed forms and you basically don't use Navali to roll a new prophecy anymore. It also makes you realize just how bad unique rewards are compared to currency.

coral garden
#

Wut?@prime rapids u make it sound like doing normal heists is an investment

prime rapids
#

@coral garden
On xbox 15k marks is 1ex. For a 4 wing heist that could take 2-4 ex worth of marks and I have yet to get anything close to that from contracts or grand heists.
Its more profitable to sell contracts and marks and blueprints then to run them. And I don't exactly like to run them either. I hate having to fight 100 respawnable enemies in tiny cramped spaces

#

@sharp iron
I hate how marks only apply to 1 enemie and can't be ran as auras because I have 4 max power charges but the only way to generate them is through assasins mark and since they changed it even that isn't reliable so I end up usually only having 1 or 2 at a time.

still mural
#

unfortunately, console economies are always weird

coral garden
#

If its an investment theres no way ssf peeps could have played it

sharp iron
#

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the mark change either.

#

There are already ways in the same you can prepare yourself to fight a singular strong enemy. And I feel marks got ruined because of that change.

#

In particular, the Gluttony unique belt got gutted. But now they're also not a reliable form of charge gain either.

prime rapids
#

@coral garden
What i meant was that if I invest 1ex worth of marks into a grand heist that will end up only giving me like 20c in loot its not worth it. The best I have gotten from contracts and blueprints so far is 1ex drop and a replica loreweave that someone bought for 1ex even though I had it listed as 40c. Other then that alot of the stuff I get just sits and doesn't sell or is vendor food.

#

And I don't have 20+ ex to invest in a 4% chance exalt trinket

#

I don't think I have even sold a single alt gem I gotten. And that was probably a month ago.

#

And the best reward i have gotten from a wing in a currency grand heist is a whole 6 chaos. 90% of the time the podium reward is worth less then the rest of the loot.

coral garden
#

U aren't meant to spam grand heist because they are more lucrative

#

Everyone is spamming it until the point its not profitable anymore (by buying markers) and they are forced to run normal heists

#

Market forces at work here

prime rapids
#

Even if 15k markers were 30c instead of 1ex i would probably still profit more by selling them then using them.

#

Its just easier overall and more consistent to just run maps and sell heist drops.
Unique contracts are usually 1ex each even though the drops from them are trash. And I can farm 1ex worth of contracts/marks faster then I can make 1ex by running them.
