Cool project, went on a bit too long but it was worth it. At some point during I recorded a run where I explain my thought process but I think I can do it better + show some alternate relic setups so I'm going to do that today on stream and upload that as a separate video in the coming days. Thanks for watching!

Thank you that would be amazing as the relics you are using are extremely expensive so a middle budget option would be much appreciated.

[@dawnguard1723]

Yeah i actually came back to the video to watch that part again

[@1992Hatzu]

I think the Forbidden Tome droprate is fine. The +2 room reveal relics are 9 div each, you running with 7 for the most part and later even 9 drives the "cost of entry" already up to 63 or 81 div. I know you dont need the relics to start running sanctum. I myself ran like 50 sanctums casually without them but i wasnt even close to the 4 div per sanctum Empy got. So its (obviously) safe to say you get more divs out of your sanctum runs with 90% of the map revealed.

[@Empyriangaming]

Fair point

[@VildsiX]

Exactly. And a build cappable of running it (fast and a lot of dmg). But i love these videos.

[@Synky]

Good point! I still think the tomes need a slight drop nerf though, but yeah the cost of entry can be quite high at first but pays off no doubt.

[@1992Hatzu]

@@Synky I didnt map much this league (750k kills) and only dropped like 5 tomes myself. Maybe thats incredible unlucky, maybe its the average i dont know. So from my experience the droprate is pretty bad. Is it intended to be a alternative to mapping like Heist or Delve ? If so tomes should be readily available. Maybe they can decrease the dropchance but give us atlas passives for it in exchange. With enough investment it sure pays off, but so does (almost, looking at you ritual) everything else before GGG destroys it.

[@mortox2k]

Basically did the same as Empy this league since I'd missed out on playing actual Sanctum league (was playing Lost Ark at the time), did a full stash tab 144+ books, results were similar. I did it with a Hiero Shockwave Totem build, no Mageblood to begin with, as soon as I hit ~300-something divines, bought the MB and things went way faster from there to complete the remaining books. Great way to generate currency especially if you want to play mostly solo, not stopping to trade very often, can just do big giant play sessions and then liquidate the sextants and chaos orbs whenever you feel like it (usually once I was at like 2000 sextants I'd liquidate selling them in 10 div per 380 or thereabouts)

[@Glizzardacus]

you and I are honestly about the same. I'd say over the 100 books I've ran, I'd say I've gotten MINIMUM 300 Divines, granted I've invested some of it into splitting a MB with a friend, some into my build, some into gamba with sextant rolling, so the results are definitely skewed.

[@righterz]

@Empy Did you account the cost of your 2 additional room relics ? Because those have a big impact on finding divines/sextants.

[@Empyriangaming]

No. How do you propose I account for them? I bought them, used them, and i’m reselling them when i’m done. They were not part of the mirror buy, I still have them. If you want to ‘account’ for no reveal relic runs you have to run an entirely different project.

I hope it doesn't get nerfed, not even the availability of books. You only failed a few, but you have a very good build. For the average Andy, it's gonna be more like 5-6 divs per hour, which would be about in line with a good low-investment strat. If you got a nice build and can play well, most strategies are gonna be pretty profitable.

[@sagi3933]

Only balance current Sanctum requires would be reduced drop rates of Tomes. As it stands now, they feel like they drop too often, but aren't worth selling due to lowly prices. If they were more scarce, prices would be higher, but still affordable, as it means mostly dedicated builds would run them then, still making large profit, but those that don't also get more value out of each drop and it feels better to drop them than it does now.

[@cambria9893]

and whats that build ? do you have a guide for relics and room choices?

[@aladorn]

what is this MTX that change leveling up?

[@MrExeetor]

problem aint the Divs per hour or entry-cost. The problem is the influx of raw divines into the economy. You only need to add other rewards with high value. Stacked decks, fracturing shards etc. just to keep the amount of raw divines in the economy lower

[@Glizzardacus]

Bro fracturing shards and stacked decks would actually be sick. I think stacked decks actually used to be in the loot tables but they took them out for some reason?

[@G00R00]

12div/hour, but how much was the initial investment ? (not even counting your good build)

100-200 div of relics, which went up in price since then so resale value went up a bit. Did not count those ofc.

[@БогданТелков-б7ы]

I have a friend which is running sanctums for a whole league and he says that double relics quite useless until u got the mirror reward. Because they cost around 1 div each and makes ur run tougher. And u sometimes even loose currency because u don't take any rewards except divines and only 2 div reward giving u profit

@@Empyriangaming I don't know of a single strat that really meets the 12 div per hour once you factor in trade time. Most of the ones claim 10 = 4 by the time you take time to trade everything away. This is not a dig on you at all or any streamer, but having an audience to buy up stuff really decreases your time to actualization on sales. Not for all of them but for enough of it to skew the hourly metric once you factor in trading off stuff that you can't do in bulk in TFT. More importantly, as you said in the video, the cost of entry for return is way too low. Compared to say juiced-up maps where you are multiple div in to see that kind of return. Thus keeping currency circulating in the market, whereas Sanctum just prints most of it.

[@BlazeTheDoja-qh1ey]

how do people hate heist but not hate sanctum? it feels so similar to me. in both the minions rarely drop anything worth it, your loot is rng'ed in a list (end room/floor rewards vs blue print reward), some waiting is required (waiting on a door feels like waiting on a room of guards to die), you run the same thing over and over, and there's traps too i guess. they both seem straight forward but there's a good bit of learning to dial it in to being good reliable currency. also heist is way more money. easily double what empyrian made in this video with the same time investment. i feel the market speaks to that as well. good blueprints are super costly and a sanctum book is 10c
