I'm doing Blight right now. It's ansolutely stupid.

I got all the Blight nodes running Toxic Sewers with Gilded Blight scarabs.
You get like ~3 Blighted Maps on average per map. I had a map where I dropped 11 Blighted maps.

Hmm...what am I doing wrong? I also got all Blight nodes, but I don't run a special map...I would say, I get every 2 oder 3 Maps one Blight map... Is the Gilded Scarab the reason or the special map?

Right now I have my atlas skill tree like this, I'm thinking of changing a few more things, but at the moment everything is quite profitable for me.
These days that I was testing Strongbox, it felt more like farming alteration, I didn't get anything good.

I've done some serious experimenting with one tree so far.
I wanted to tes tmy own tree with my favorite league mechanics and tried out running Breach + Legion + metamorph + Simulacrum + Expedition on Strand.

These were the results of a 20 map test:


Now I've been trying some of the "base" things ppl tell everyone to get on their map, mainly being Essences and Strongboxes.
I think essences are pretty good, mostly due to Remnants of Corruption being 1 chaos. So I just throw a remnant on literally every Essence I find pretty much. Essences feel decent so far.

But damn, strongboxes is a MASSIVE letdown. I have no clue why people run them. You're spending 10chaos each map on Strongboxes and mostly get nothing back in return. 80% of strongboxes I open shoot blanks and are completely hidden by my filter. Sometimes you get a corrupted 6-link, Operatives box or divinations box et.c. But it's too rare and in the end I was losing money doing my strongbox testing. My Animate Guardian dying was the acing on the cake and I'm never touching strongboxes again. Not to mention that I die to strongboxes all the time because I'm greedy and try to instantly pick up loot those times they actually drop something.

Not sure, I started with gilded directly when I respecced to Blight yesterday. I've gotten 100 blighted maps so far ~40 maps.
Would have gotten more but I've also failed alot of Blights due to Delirium Mirrors and me just standing still too much during them and dying at times.

You definitely want to run maps with tight corridors like Toxic Sewers.
it will exponentially increase how many Blighted Maps you get.

Ok, thanks, I'll try it later again. To make it clear, you don't mean "Maps with a Blight encounter", but maps with only Blight in it, right?

Otherwise the same with strongboxes in my maps...most of them drop crap, I only skilled them in order to get scarabs...but probably are the skill points wasted... Concerning the AG dying, isn't the simple solution, just to not open them, if they are close to a boss?

I'm talking about normal maps with a Blight Encounter from a Gilded Blight Scarab. When running Toxic Sewers I get ~3 Blighted Maps(The 5 min things with 100 chests) per Toxic Sewers. I'll recorda as snippet of a mapping session and show you :-)

I think the easiest solution of them all is to specc out of Strongboxes and don't bother with them. I got baited into strongboxes this league cause everyone is doing them. But I'm not impressed. You pay 10 chaos permap and usually get nothing back.

Compare it to running Breach for example. If you run Breach with 1 Polished Scarab(1c) and a sextant(5 c for sextant for 4 maps) you usually walk out with breach loot for over 20 chaos per map or more. Breach Rings alone sell for 4 chaos per ring and you get several per Breach.

Ahh, ok...that's even more strange...I only got 2 or 3 maps with a Blight encounter...during the whole league!!! But I'll check if I have that map later and then try it... Cool, a snippet would be great!

Yes, probably you are right, concerning strongboxes...I died already a lot, opening one and can't move...

I'll try breach, but I'm not lucky (or unexperienced) selling items...have a lot stuff that is (to my mind interesting), but nobody wants it... ;-)

You want to make sure you're bulkselling things.
Do that on TFT (The Forbidden Trove) discord. It's a godsend for selling crap you don't want as long as you have bulk.

Also, if you're running Breach, make sure that you show Breach Rings on your filter. Ilvl83+ Breach Rings are 4 chaos each in bulk.

Ok, thanks for the hint...but to be honest, I never used discord... ;-) I think I focus on other things to make currency.

I have a few questions concerning your current gear/gems, because I try to adapt my gear/gems. Currently with Auls I run Skitterbots, Determination, Grace & Hatred:
1. Don't you use Determination any more, because it doesn't fit with "Ashes of the stars" and the mana reservation?
2. Isn't Determination mandatory because of Molten Shell?
3. Do you use Vitality instead, because it needs less reservation?
4. Doesn't "Assasins Mark" count as a curse or don't you have EW on your AGs gloves anymore?
5. What is the reason that you still use Victarios, and no shield with +2/+2 charges?

1. I still run Determination. On my current build I have it as a corruption on my Shield.
2. Not necessarily, but they synergise with eachother very well. I do run Determination though :)
3. I'm not running Vitality. I think you're lookingat my AFK blight setup because I'm afking my Blight maps right now.
To AFK blight you need regen and capped Chaos resistance. My flask setup should be telling whether I'm making or doing Blights.
4. Assassin's Mark counts as a curse.
My AG is running a 30% explodey and +1 curse chest. I made it for ~4 exalted orbs with an Awakened Orb. THat's why my AG is pretty expensive.
5. I just haven't bothered upgrading my Shield. I've got ~200 ex in Fossils/Fragments that I've farmed this week but almost no exalteds. Haven't bothered to sell my stuff.
For now, my shield works well. It gives Power charges when mapping and with Ashes of the Stars, my minions get Power Charges from Assassin's Mark too which means upgrading Victario's Charity isn't as important as it was before.
Determination as a corruption mod also saves 1 socket slot which is nice.

But yeah, I will be getting a Shield in the future. But right now I think I'll just save up for a Mageblood. Didn't get one last league and I want to try it out.
