this is how i lost all my friends initially playing PoE. They all left the game after showing this vid.

[@blu3fireball]

Ironically I had just decided earlier today to try Gravicius and found your previous 3.24 Betrayal strategy video. After literally watching that video 3 times while setting up my board over the past 5 hours I FINALLY started to understand how this worked. And then KZbin sent me to this video which you JUST posted so now I am going to spend hours watching this one and re-setup my board.

[@simplyVizniz]

I'm so sorry but I hope this is easier for people to understand and has a much stronger synergy with scarabs

I still get confused by some of it honestly

[@ChilledoutDevil]

honestly that league i was a massive noob compared to the noob i am today, but boy am i glad i spent an unhealthy amount of hours farming harbour bridge that league... the decision making becomes "fluent" to understand eventually where you don't have to think much about it, though i was not smart enough to figure out these specific relation connections, was always trained on "just give everybody relations to everybody" but super keen to try this out

This is a world where the Syndicate are running their transportation department with a skeleton crew of two of the biggest lunatics they have, and EVERYBODY ABSOLUTELY HATES THEM, and somehow that results in massive profits.

Thanks for this guide! All this time I've been doing hundreds of Catarina runs, chasing veiled orbs. This seems like much faster and more consistent way to generate profit.

[@apurbakundu3939]

I always used to farm syndicate before the changes in 3.24. During the recombinator league when I was new to the game looking for money making strategy, I found a random underrated poe youtuber who simplified this to me in 20-30 mins. I tried that and sold my first Aisling after 2 tries. The more I tinkered around the mechanics the more shortcuts I found like having 100% mastermind intelligence right after finishing a katarina fight within 2-4 maps, how to get Aisling faster etc etc. To me betrayal was a very simple money making with no real investment other than buying sextants. Every league I made quite the money just from this. After the immense changes, I lost hope because for me it was the easiest way to make money without putting a lot of efforts lol. Now after seeing this video I regained my interest back to try betreyal again. Honestly I haven't got whole gist of your video yet, but after watching this again and again I will pull this off after some failed attempts. Thank you guiding me back to syndicate again ❤️, in a new way.

[@danihell13]

After many years I guess I finally understood lol. I always run betrayal on league start for unveils and this league I was trying to get grav and was never getting transportation houses, i hope it remains the same next league lol Thank you for the video, your voice is amazing.

[@simplyVizniz]

They've said they are in the process of reworking syndicate and that it might be ready next league (talked about it before the league launch). Hopefully they make the overall experience a lot smoother and rewarding.

[@tmrokms]

I wish i saw this video before league start. Great 33min SIMPLIFIED video xD. I think i can farm Safehouse next league!

[@GravitaryCOM]

Absolutely brilliant. I think what you could try to show, and I don't want you to mess up your tree, is an initial setup. Some examples, even in paint. That'd help.

[@Nesot]

This. Because I understand what to do after we get the initiate setup, but I have no idea how to get the initial setup

i was gonna make a video about syndicate simplified. As always there’s that one person that just has the edge. Nice video as always✌️👍👍

[@spitzhorneule]

Fantastic video! The only thing I want to mention/warn others is: pretty sure that the phrase Captain and Leader got at least once confused with one another. Leader always refers to the lead position inside a safehouse. Even one star member can be leader. Captain is just another name for 3 star.

[@simplyVizniz]

For sure I added a note to the video description right after I posted it when I noticed but good to get the word out more

[@spitzhorneule]

Oh didnt even bother to read description^^ Tbf confusing those two happend to me so many times already that I am quite aware of it :D The official phrase Captain is quite confusing imo. Thanks again for the sick content you provide regarding one of the most complex mechanics in this game

[@Raysureeea]

I love the video, but I think it's important to highlight WHAT you are farming specifically so people can understand. Not everyone knows what gravicius does (myself included) and why this would be a valid strategy. If that was included as a quick segment in the intro that would be really cool for next time :)

[@yuenchunlong102]

That's exactly what I'm asking myself too...

[@wolvie90]

I have 10k hours in PoE but only this league decided to actually learn Betrayal properly (I always despised the mechanic). This league in SSF with so many farming avenues nerfed to shit, I decided to hunt for cards with Gravicius and your guides are the only truly helpful ones I've found. He has given me a Kaom's Heart and two full sets of Divine Beauty so far, I'm gonna do this at leaguestart next league unless they nerf it again.

[@martingerbaldo]

[@samsonli9490]

Maybe I missed it, but there was no explanation of the goal of the strat. Would be nice to have in the beginning, like a summary

[@Wistz90]

Keeping Gravicius and Cameria in Transportation ensures that you can get 1-2 stacks of divination cards (full stacks) from Gravicius and a chance at a chase unique like Headhunter (nemesis league) ~ Timeworn Uniques. Gravicius can have some pretty nice full-sets of cards.

[@SuperCatacata]

@@Wistz90 With the current price of Veiled orbs, I still don't see the point in running this over Catarina rushing.

[@Benzil_infinity]

​@@SuperCatacatayou can farm Catarina, if your goal is to farm veiled orbs. You can do this instead, (which is atleast ×10 faster) to get valuable items. I have gotten magebloods, house of Mirrors, headhunters etc.

[@genskie24]

​@@SuperCatacata he did say it's good early league. Not much people crafting, veiled orbs are not that expensive. But you could get a lot of divine cards and other valuable cards at full stack and a chance at expensive uniques. Works well with a boss rush strat as well as he showcased

[@chaosmassive8627]

what ive been doing in the past (3.7) is just executing valuable scarab syndicate to intervention, demoting(interograte wanted syndicate from wrong safehouse), and expel unwanted one. i was raked ton of exalt from blood aqueduct farm only and bought my first HH within 3 days of farming.

[@simplyVizniz]

Yeah back in the old days I remember doing the 2/2 research/intervention setup and it was pretty popular back then.

[@koko2274]

tested just now in 10 maps, 3.8 divs made with 2 div investment (this investment is for 20 maps). its chill, nice and quick.

[@Morclye]

I've managed to do the 2-2-5-5 setup, Gravicius as leader of Transportation, Cameria as second, both rank 3, removed Bribery from Atlas, ranked all 5 members of Intervention and Research to 3 but still no trusted or rival relationship options found. Any time I run map with Jun the last person of 5 member faction has options to interrogate, release or as bargain I'm only getting remove member X from syndicate, remove all rivalries, destroy all items but nothing else. How can I get bargain option to provide any relationship effects like trusted, rivalry or neutral? I've ran around 70 maps with Jun with people in right places without seeing bargain giving relationship change option of any kind.

[@traceur694]

I'm having the same issue, did you solve it?

[@traceur694]

For anyone else wondering, you have to make them trusted first, so if you see something like "Cameria and Riker become trusted" take that, then later you'll get a betray option to make them rivals. it's RNG to get them to be trusted, but as others have noted, unspec'ing Bribery on the tree helps

[@lostwookiee81]

Would be nice to have a video showing how to setup the board from a fresh run. I'm working hard on getting all my relations untied. Thinking it might just be easier to run Katarina and start fresh.

He's got a mageblood and a build that zooms more or less instantly across the map, no way casual players are getting 13 safehouses an hour in betrayal. The guide is good, but he's getting a lot more profit than a typical player can expect from this strategy.

[@simplyVizniz]

You could play the typical heist league starter and run even faster than I do honestly. You're not wrong that I am going to go faster than others though since I'm used to the talking options but keep in mind that also applies to most things in the game right.

[@JakeElert]

Oh, it's in your slides, I see it now :)

[@rolandalphs7022]

Any advice on setting up the board before running the strat? Do you just put Grav + 1 on other divisions first to get the rivalries set up before getting him to transportation?

[@simplyVizniz]

I set it up this league by getting members into their proper positions first (2/2/5/5) and using the Bargain options given to the last standing member in encounters to build trusted and then rival relationships. Doing it this way allows you to run transportation safehouses while building up the connections.

[@christophercalhoun6481]

Great guide Ty! When can we get the build guide for the relic of the pact build? It looks badass!

[@theconspirasphere94]

What about a set up if I just want to spam mastermind over and over? Any tips on that, since it blanks your board every time? Or is it just as straight forward as Run missions, hope you encounter the leader, 3 star them, then interrogate/ get intel from them rinse repeat for 4 or 5 maps to get mastermind up?

[@Critterdale]

Yeah you can also run the scarabs and the atlas nodes that give intel to random safe house. You’ll get mastermind very quickly, like within a few maps. This is really good for xp as well.

[@braize6279]

This honestly is the real simple way to do Betrayal now. The entire thing got gutted, and the board doesn't matter at all anymore. Veiled orb is it, and that drops off the boss. So execute everybody, jail the 3 stars, take intelligence bargains, do safe houses, unlock and kill mastermind. Repeat

[@Filer169]

As a comment above said, node that gives 10 int every map is huge, I could raid safehouse like every second map

[@lplusratio1489]

hey, thanks for the update, I used your strategy last league and got full set of The Doctor from Grav in SSF, super cool! I often have/had an issue of only Gravicius spawning in transportation encounters few times in a row though, despite him being rival with 7 members. is it common and just rng, or do I do something wrong?

[@simplyVizniz]

It just happens they won't always bring people

[@byenergy_eu2462]

I built the 2 2 5 5 setup. But i cannot seem to get any connection to my grav or cameria. Do they have to have a connection before i put them in the 2 2 5 5 setup?

[@simplyVizniz]

You can bring some people over and/or unspec Bribery to help Bargain creating connections

[@R3byChan]

Today i had a trade offer while i was launching the map, took maybe a minute to get over with the trade, then as soon as i entered the map, an intervention popped instantly, so timer is running already after a while if you dont get inside asap (I've been farming this for a few days already

[@ahazu1445]

Im currently trying this and getting everyone to the correct position was so easy that i thought it wouldn't take much time, 3 hours later cameria and grav have no connections to anyone holy shit

[@ahazu1445]

Okay for anyone trying to set this up DO NOT TAKE THE BRIBERY NODE ON ATLAS PASSIVE SKILL TREE it makes so the bargain option is usually about items with veiled mods making it impossible to setup a board in less than 20 hours, after i removed it, cameria connected to everyone in 50 maps

[@Shadycrazy]

@@ahazu1445do you reallocate that node after setup?

[@Shadycrazy]

Also sorry for double tap but do you feel like farming transportation is better then farming mastermind for veiled?

[@ahazu1445]

@@Shadycrazy depends really its kinda of a big gamble, i got divine beauty and made 7 divs in 20 maps but hey thats my luck and it might not be yours, Yes i reallocate the node after i'm done and currently the veiled orbs are very expensive so its probably more stable for money, on the other hand you can replace cameria, which is a HUGE gamble for HH with Hillock for essence scarabs making way more profitable and stable, if you have any questions feel free to ask, Cheers

[@Hikariel.]

Hi really enjoying your video and sounds fun so I will try doing your setup One question I have atm: is there any downside to rivalries between members in research/intervention itself or can i just add rivalries there as i please if i get them beside the obvious gravicius to all except leaders

[@simplyVizniz]

I used to do a much heavier connection system in the past but this seems to be more consistent in bringing cameria/gravicius into the research and intervention encounters to maintain their ranks.

[@JustZ27]

dude, DOPE! Nice work.

[@simplyVizniz]

appreciated hope you enjoy

[@Lendoria]

By not having any trusted connections you're missing out on the additional chance for the transportation guys to bring in trusted reinforcements. And if you kill Reasearch/Intervention (I think Transporation as well, but I'm not sure) encounters too quickly they don't spawn in all the reinforcements. Otherwise cool strategy! It's been a while since I've farmed it seriously myself, but always nice to see a fellow syndicate enjoyer out there. =D

[@floodo1]

Yes Intervention for sure can take time to spawn the reinforcements

[@martingerbaldo]

So you are claiming to have more of a clue how betrayal works ? I dont think so.

[@peffe]

You are a god sir, your plans goes over my head totally. Really dont understand why you would like to do this, i want to farm as much as possible xD I haven t even understand why not to the boss and let her be. chuckles by myself thinking this is why i never will be rich. :D

What would you recommend the connections be in an SSF environment where scarabs for betrayal aren't as common? Or any way to farm said scarabs better, and thank you for the video! Super well put together.

[@simplyVizniz]

t17s are an ok source of scarabs but realistically I would just do the same connections except you add in the leaders of research/intervention to the grav/cam connections since you won't use scarabs and that's the issue with connecting them

[@siz0u]

Hey, I'm pretty new to poe. It's my 2nd league and I really want to try out the betrayal. is there any good guides on how I can get my board to look like yours? I dont understand how to move members to exactly where I want or how to get a lot of relations between them Also how long does it take to set up the board like this? Maybe this is a problem solver for me

[@simplyVizniz]

This is mostly aimed more experienced players but I can try to help you through this. Moving members can be broken down to using various choices (although primarily Interrogation) to de-rank people down to 0* stars. You may notice this as members already who don't have a place and are floating around below the safehouses. If these members show up in an encounter you can talk with them and execute (+ ranks) to place them into the current encounter (research, intervention, fortification, or transportation). Using this method of de-ranking people to 0 and waiting until they appear in other safehouses you can begin the process of moving people to their proper locations. Building relationships can be done easily over a period of time by leaving members you want to have relationship last so they gain "Bargain" options that can build trusted (and later rival) relationships. These are independent of the members who show up in the encounter so reading the potential connections here is important. As for how long it can take to set this up typically experienced players doing single safehouse strategies (as opposed to double) can set it up in 5 or so hours. This time will be increased dramatically as less experienced players will be double checking the choices and reading more.

[@simplyVizniz]

Thankfully they're finishing up a rework and betrayal can be a simple rewarding mechanic soon

[@JakeElert]

Fascinating. I've done hundreds of Syndicate encounters, but this video shows that I still don't understand the first thing about it. Why Gravicius and Cameria? Why rivalries and not the green connections? As in, what goals can one set up for themselves, what can you really get out of Syndicate (outside of the chaos resistance crafts, that was the only thing I ever used it for)? Can you recommend an introduction video please?

[@simplyVizniz]

Grav rewards full divination card stacks, cameria for league specific uniques (death rush mainly early league) Connections help bring in additional people into encounters for more executions/interrogations (+ranks, +intelligence) and rivals have better options than trusted due to them not having betray options I would recommend checking out the rewards available from each member in the various safehouses on poewiki or poedb and seeing what you would be interested in.

[@JakeElert]

[@ColderHeat_]

great content, thanks for the clear visualization/presentation how'd one go about farming catarina tho? just get the members with valuable loot to be leaders and 3 before killing her and ball?

[@simplyVizniz]

Focus on getting leaders to 3*, then other members, then interrogating non-leaders for intelligence, rushing to finish safehouses for cata intelligence. If you see a member that has a particular reward you like (such as grav transportation or haku ambush scarabs) take a map or two to try to align typically. Otherwise just do catarina and repeat

[@pyroboomka4587]

Do you first build rivalry with Cameria/Grav and other members and then stick them in transportation, or you can do 2-2-5-5 first, and then build rivalries? I spent few hours today in final setup without connections, and it was kind poor experience - impossible to rank up the guys i need. Maybe Im bad at betrayal tho, first time taking it seriously.

[@simplyVizniz]

You can do 2-2-5-5 first and then leave them as the last standing member every time you come across them as you'll get Bargain options that can create links.

(if waitings not improved ive would still stick to this strat) 2nd. does grav have to be on top to run the transport? or can i have cameria there on any rank and only grav rank 3 matter (better card waiting with grav on top or leader?) Excellent guide, this strat is kinda weird, even after that big jackpot i dont know if i like it....the good thing is that if you accomplished the board you pretty much learned all about betrayal Some feedback edit, im getting the cartographer card a lot (spreadsheet value weight 7152) so i dont think its 800 or better sadly

[@simplyVizniz]

chisels got reworked this league as noted by their scarcity across the board, sirgog did some detective work on gold cost -> card rarity correlation that may enlighten further on that grav can be leader or bottom his reward will be the same, it just decides who will be leader after and the other retains their stars (which is why I like grav leader to try to back to back transportation safehouses) when I tested in crucible there was no difference between cata chest t4 and safehouse t3 (aside from 2 box vs 1) but that was a few leagues ago and some things may have changed. It's a pretty high variable strategy though so I imagine from the number of people getting good rewards from both it's just rng.

[@PanzAndWezGaming]

thanks for the video explanation, what are your thoughts on doing syndicate purely for fighting the mastermind boss to farm veiled orbs. I've been ignoring the setup of the npcs and only caring if the captain is rank 3 for mastermind intelligence. is there a quicker way to get mastermind intelligence other than just simply making sure captain is 3 rank and using interrogate when npcs below are rank 3

[@simplyVizniz]

Mastermind and elevating rewarding members to 3* prior to do cata is pretty solid and in a ssf environment or as veiled orbs rise in price it is probably more consistent returns. Nothing can really be done to loop cata faster than what you've been doing

[@AceKuper]

I know this is a minuscule sample size and this strategy is pure gamble. But if not for the EXP it gives i would feel even more like i'm running in place, hoping for a huge payout. I've done 70ish maps and ironically enough Grav payouts are mostly chaos with maybe something being around a div or two once. Ironically I got a Headhunter from a card when i was setting this whole board up and was very slow. Managed to sell it when it was still around 30 div. The biggest downside for me is the way filling up the hideout quota works and opening up portals in the map. Learned the hard way that if interact with a remaining member on the map, after opening the portal that empties the hideout. Not sure if just touching them or selecting an option is needed. Also my Transportation on the map was 0 reinforcements Grav or often running 2 encounter map, cause Transportation only filled when you opened the map, while Fort just ran out. So my time till Grav often extended to 3+ maps.

[@adrianx8243]

Amazing guide thank you. What are the expected profits with this strategy on the league start / at this point of the league?

[@simplyVizniz]

I couldn't say honestly. If you want you could make a spreadsheet from the data in the description with current trade values for the sets by their weight to know a rough value of each gravicius but for myself I've found it to be profitable enough and fun that I hadn't bothered. League start it for sure out strips cata but by this state of the league as veiled soar I imagine it's more of a fun strat than profitable comparatively. Has crazy high roll potential in that regard.

[@maharero9080]

@@simplyVizniz Damn, would've been nice to come across this strat before this league started. Next league betrayal is likely getting reworked so who knows if this will still be the way to do things

[@popijam2]

So this is a strat for a full set of div card and uniques like headhunter only, right? If I prefer to rush Catarina for a veiled orb, is there any strategy besides rushing every safehouse? I got lucky with 3 star Grav dropping a full set of The Sephirot with a veiled orb from Catarina and want to replicate it but looking at how running Catarina reset the whole board I probably just have to be lucky again.

[@kaltentrivial8379]

Great stuff!

[@CzlowiekFontanna]

Great guide!

[@simplyVizniz]

Thanks. I hope it helps you out in some way.

[@Xioji]

so, rival relationship from Gravicious and secondary transportation member to every regular member (lieutenants not: captains/not boys in circle, box) in another divisions (expect fortification) is better than everyone having rival relationship with everyone, and this is most optimal board for transportation farming while using reinforcements+inteligence scarabs?

[@prominent21]

A succinct 33min video somehow xd. Great job breaking down how all the choices affect your ability to have the safehouse ready to run asap.

[@simplyVizniz]

Appreciated hope it helps

[@rashan9415]

@simplyVizniz It will be nice if you show some clip what you can drop from this method:) also i'm intetrested what build you play? you have some link for video or POB?

[@TheTrueBlazer]

Okay so I'm one of the people that saw your 3.24 video - didn't notice it says OUTDATED so I spent quite a while setting all of the members rivals with each other and now I bump into this video. So what is your suggestion? Remove all rivalries and start anew or making them neutral with eachother? Also, what's the best drop you've gotten from gravicius this league? Thanks in advance and keep up the great work!

[@simplyVizniz]

I would just let them naturally drop rival status -> neutral status through options since it doesn't disrupt your safehouse flow that much to have them under the old system. Seven years bad luck is the best I've gotten this league.

[@bred9526]

[@SmokiDyno]

Thanks for the headhunter ♥

[@Turtle.69]

Great video guide. If you mentioned it in the video, I missed it. How much profit do you make doing this strategy per hour? Rough ballpark is fine.

[@simplyVizniz]

I honestly couldn't say but it was my league start strategy and I ended up at around 40 divines by day 2-3 from it alone. It's focused towards higher end rewards similar to something like ritual but card results such as divine beauty or sephirot can help balance out quite a bit. If you check out the doc below it has access to rough card weights in 3.24-3.25 and you can look at results from 800 and below for an idea of what you can hit.

[@Turtle.69]

@@simplyVizniz Appreciate the reply, homie. From other people I've heard that Gravicius seems to have weighting similar to that of old Pre Nerf stacked decks from a long time ago.

[@R3byChan]

Question: i have Cameria rival with everyone except leaders. I rewatched the video for the 5th time now, and just now noticed that i dont want them connected with the lieutenant from fortification.... how to i brake the rivalry? hope for the fortification guy to ask to be removed? he will hop in hopefully in the next cycle so i can fix this right? Working on Cameria also atm, kinda hard to fit this entangled mass @_@ but its been really fun so far :D Didn't get anything super valuable, just a Divine Beaty once :S rest was just garbage, but surely runnin "ritual" with this strat really slowed the process >_< Mistakes were made, but thanks to your vids i was able to understand better this mechanic, i think i got this now (just before poe2 come out... better late than never i guess :P )

[@simplyVizniz]

just don't mind the fortification connections that much and keep an eye out for the bargain option to go from rival -> neutral between them

[@Bathmman]

is this setup better than farming for veiled orb? how often do you get jackpot card sets? im currently trying to farm veiled orbs and made a lot of div so far. i wanna get convinced that this setup is better

[@arriburi]

Finally learned immortal syndicate. Was just wondering if grav and cameria need to be both rank 3 when running the safehouse or just the leader of transporation? does rank affect rewards? Oh, also the "Bargain" atlas tree passive, do we really want to get more items when we can get a chance at "set all the prisoners free" and get instant safehouse?

[@simplyVizniz]

Grav being rank 3 is important for his div card weighting reward, cam I honestly have no real idea what additional ranks do for him. The leadership position just decides who will be leader after the safehouse and who will keep 3 stars so it can be helpful to get to the next safehouse faster having grav in lead. Unallocating Bribery will get you slightly faster safehouses but for the most part with scarabs it doesn't speed up the process on a per map basis very much.

[@noodlespwn42]

nice now I understand how to do this mechanic

[@simplyVizniz]

Glad to hear it

[@BlackVincentChaos]

Let's say I got all the people where I want them, but I'm still missing the rivalries - am I still able to get the rivalries? or do I need to build the rivalry relations before putting all of them where they should be?

[@renmeker6588]

so when is this strategy most profitable? early league since a lot of uniques have some value? or late league, when the chase items have become very expensive?

[@MrBoUntyyyy]

3 days of absolute cbt with setting up a board and undestanding it, just dropped house of mirrors, gg

[@simplyVizniz]

gz!

[@victorberrozpe2478]

Im in ssf, I am basically creating connections between everyone everytime the option appears. I understand that if I dont use the scarabs, I can also create connections to leaders right? Also, what is the benefit of running 2 2 5 5 members? And finally, if I have connections between the members that are not in transportation, should I restart my board only creating connections like in the video? Sorry for all the questions😅

[@dominikpacocha7680]

I have the same question

[@simplyVizniz]

You can and should create connections to the leaders. The 2s allow for you to interrogate/run the safehouse using the members inside without them bouncing around to another safehouse. It keeps them trapped within so no time is wasted getting them back. I wouldn't restart the board just move people to their appropriate places (only the reward members matter) and utilize the Bargain mechanic to build proper connections. Feel free to drop the Bribery atlas passive during the time you're building connections

[@franzhahn8348]

Wouldn't running Fortification safehouses with someone like Janus and Hillock also be a good idea, if you have the 2/2/5/5 setup, since the captain will be immediately bumped back into fortification, after you're done with the safehouse, and you basically get free scarabs?
