[PoE] Looting shards to get rich - Atlas strategies - Based or cringe? - Stream Highlights

[@Empyriangaming]

As always, didn't account for Necropolis specific stuff like corpses and Allflames, so these videos stay relevant for longer than a league. If you wanna go extra cheap, skip the 6c map device harbies. If your character is extra bad, add shrines / Niko for character power. Short term decent money, long term BIG payoff possibility. Very versatile, only needs 29 points on the tree, you can combine it with a bunch of stuff if you want to spend more time in the maps. Cool strat. Thanks for watching!

[@praetorianmk-ii4522]

There is multiple downsides to do the lottery atm. From my mediocre sample size (tested on 1000 harbingers with single shard type and then 10000 shard drops without lottery scarab, showing all shards of course), rarity of shards increased very slightly, but the time it would take you to see a single fracture proc is increased from avg 5 maps to ~70. Even worse that without lottery scarab you would just run another 3 harbingers, which makes average outcome per map even better, and then there is a bug or inefficient order of operations about harbinger nodes: 100% chance to drop an additional stack of currency from the tree nodes a) does not apply to big harbingers at all, and b) does not get converted into a single currency type via scarab. That means when you fishing for dophamine, not only you see nothing on your screen and sometimes you see shit ton of clicking for ancient/annulment at once (which is also less healthy that picking up 0-5 shards per harby imo), but there is also a way to fuck up your payoff: you have 25% chance that fracturing shards would roll on a small harbinger (because 75% of your harbingers are big) and thats already like 2 orbs instead of 5+, but then it could also roll on that extra shard stack (which actually happened in my tests), absolutely destroying your motivation to keep going after seeing two fracturing shard stacks (they do double by other scarab still) in 70 maps (or more if you got unlucky on that as well). I did get a proper big harbinger drop too, but it didn't feel as good as it would if I just ran them normally and get consistent drops. Also assumed values per map were in favor of doing non-lottery as well, but it might be low enough data size. However if it is not noticeable at 1k harbingers and you still go down in terms of outcomes (compared to regular setup), then maybe its not worth doing, at least for me:) As a side note, chance to get a full orb seems to be around 6%, transmutes mixed the data up to 7% but i suspect they just dropped 20 stacks from big harbies sometimes.

[@GrimnirLaguz28]

One nice thing is that you can run those maps white, if your build is not that strong, as it does not affect the loot from Harbies. Additionally, you don't need to be super-speedy, as you have to wait for the Harbies to spit out their bois. It is a massive gamble, as fracturing orbs are stupid rare and not worth that much. Plus, even with the Fracturing orbs, you are not making that much profit (just talking about the harbie drops), you are really mostly just waiting it out for 50/100/500, maybe thousands of maps until you get that mirror drop from them. Also, the Fracturing drops with this setup are usually at 4-7 orbs per big Harbie, not just 3, so the Fracturing orb drops are worth some 16-28D when they happen.

Been running this strat from start of league, it's super jackpot based BUT; is much better than most would think. I had in the span of ten maps once 3 fracturing shards drop nearly back to back, the lowest amount i ever got was from a non enhanced harby at 2.5 fracturing orbs and the most i ever got was 11 fracturing orbs from a enhanced boss one. This is a ton of divs when it happens and can happen more often than you think. It's also an amazing way to fill up on annuls as you will have 100's in no time at no cost.

[@Alellion]

Just to throw another anecdote into the ocean: I don't at all think it's unreasonable to count the two "big" drops into the calc - I would say that's quite accurate on drops to what I have experienced with running Harbies. For a few leagues, my start strat has consisted around Harby and Essence + a bit of strongbox (very easy to grab these together w/ position on tree), which fits in the new scarab stuff very well too. It propels you into mid-end game very smoothly & has done so consistently for multiple leagues.

[@loudpls751]

I have ran mostly Harbinger this league and, we had a private league going. Having easy access to Annulment Orbs was super useful.

[@NZTritium]

Have you done alch and go for this "is it based/cringe" series? a baseline div/hour and div/map to compare these strats against would be good to know

[@vbaldokaizen8748]

I did a literally alch and go strat, just to test it out, got 7 divines per hour with an MF char, so maybe 5-6 without. The strat was about farming scarabs exclusively. Given how cheap some scarabs are and how easy is to set them up (just buy in bulk 4), it's def not worth it. The new alch and go is using cheap scarabs imo, and if one is repeated even better. Scarabs are so powerful now.

[@zktjtm357]

I recommend farming harbinger in conjunction with farming beasts, as neither reward is based on map quantity. The shards dropped by harbinger and craicic chimeral or yellow beasts are independent of the quant of maps. Similarly, i recommend atoll maps, which are narrower and easier to navigate than strand maps. You only need to move to the right. Farming stratgy is just alch and go, kill harbinger, chimeral, and yellow beasts if necessary, then move on. Scarab only needs to be related to harbinger. The option for rarer beasts is in the atlas passive, not the scarab. The advantage of this farming is that you have a base profit from beasts and a lucky profit from harbinger, and you spin the map very quickly.

[@txivneebswafflesandshroom]

Shit strat

[@jackillerkillaecaca]

Beasts farming relies on speeding through maps as quick as possible to maximise the chances of spawning in frogs, which also ties in to double herd scarabs for 10 more red beasts per map and doubling scarabs to double the ones you do get. Harbies make maps far too slow to make reliable consistent cash from adding in beast farming (without running beast scarabs as well would make it close to pointless). I think you'd be better off adding some other strat that doesnt require you to speed through maps and that could benefit from the mob density that harbies bring, like beyond or idk.

Discernment makes your duplication scarab 99% useless because you're most of the time duplicating garbage until you get your pay off that is most likely not mirror shards. I myself dislike discernment because there is no guarantee the shard that will be chosen is the rarest one. Tbh I like to just run 3 rusted and the Regency Scarab and pair it with delirium to make use of the massive amount of mobs.

[@Empyriangaming]

I disagree. I’d rather win big when the good drops happen than have 3 more harbies per map.

[@kamilmcki8631]

I would say the harbi isn't worth considering probably half the drops came from just the maps, the shards from harbis on average drop as such low tiers its not worth running

[@wulphjay1766]

of course i start doing this strat a week ago and empy does a video on it. time for the scarabs to skyrocket

[@TrueChaoSclx]

Bro really gonna do us dirty on that last ancient orb

[@Empyriangaming]

It was bad.

[@quertysberg]

Harby is really fun with headhunter, all the buffs

[@leftybdm]

For some reason for me harby is the least fun to farm and kill on maps... just don't like the waiting for shit to spawn in the portals

[@Tactiquilla]

If u stand in the portals the spawn faster

[@ethanlarge3572]

I got a 4 fracturing orbs in one map in SSF, so always based for SSF.

[@KronMastaMax420]

Ive hit fracturing orbs a ton of times in about 1000 maps, still waiting for them juicy mirror shards tho Forever farming harbies in the jungle of the valley e/ I actually hated this league so much, hate the mechanics so much, decided to just start farming harbies until I find mirrors like you said. Ive made about 600-700 divs running harby with explicit mods+deli+scarabs. Nothing crazy, but it saved the league for me. just braindead jungle valley and harby.

[@chicomanara]

That scarab that convert all in the rarest made me a lot of transmute shards. How? Is there a worse one? Id scroll?

[@rubenandrade9602]

[@rubenandrade9602]

Nice strat bro, i just added Beyond to the Harbi strat but the keystone that do not let spawn bosses is really bad, you just want to kill the Harvis and go next so let the beyond demos to spawn their bosses to actually profti from them i got 10 tainted fusing in less then 30 maps killing Beyond bosses

[@franciscoamaral103]

u want beyond to have more harbis in the map not bc of the bosses u are trolling for picking the keystone

[@rubenandrade9602]

@@franciscoamaral103 No you are wrong, if you want the mirror you put a map kill the harvis and go next by adding beyond with the Keystone you are spawning mobs that slows down your map farming

im pretty sure harbys are affected by map quant so running 8 mod helps alot

5 mirrors per week on start, 5d per hour after month, nice content

[@russelllloyd5258]

I think chat was really hating on this more than it should have. Because doesn't ever comment section of all your videos say, "Lul dur, you counted XYZ as money but I hate trading, who wants to sit in hideout, and use the trade sites, and try to post in discord for bulk sales, that should be removed from your total because no 'normal' gamer is going to spend the time to sell 9000 essences." If that is the argument then harbinger, which requires no rolling of maps, and no complex pricing plugins, and no bulk selling on discord, is even more profitable because this is something that someone who only plays an hour or two a night could do? Maybe I'm wrong and misunderstand how much trading or not trading affects these things, but it just seems like everyone was kinda hating on this when in reality it is ultra brain dead, and would be pretty effective regardless of how much you want to engage with trade.

I find I get more fracture shards over 50 maps if I don't use the single currency gamble

[@efreitorhabibulin238]

I got 2 fracturing shards explosions in about ~120 maps

Did you guys know that Ex and Div have almost the same rarity, so this 5:53 could've been the same number of Div shards. Just so you know ;)

div shards don't exist sadly

20 divine worth of random RNG drops that had nothing to do with Harbinger :(

[@Zerkerber_kek]

that just shows that as long as you are mapping you will generate a decent amount of profit, which is really good. also harbingers have a lot of rare mobs and they will drop good items. last league i dropped a t1 fractured dot multi amulet from harbinger which sold for a decent amount.

[@jessepopovich1177]

i feel like trans and aug shards should be removed. Would help the average and make it feel better by not getting a zero loot shown harby

i did literally and exactly 1,000 harbi/deli/beyond maps in 200%+ qty 8mod maps. (yes i know, you fucking wiki nerds, qty doesnt effect the actual harbingers shard drop. i ran qty for beyond/deli drops) fracs we're almost exactly 1/100 maps. exalts were1/15 maps. counting everything in 4-5min maps i averaged 9.8div/hr. 5min maps, 1,000 maps completed. shit took me 80 hours, but i made 1.6 mirrors. if you can run these maps, consistently faster than 4min, for more than 100 maps... thats pretty wild. i had a migraine the entire week i ran this because of the flashing blue light, gl.

[@nukedbaby]

I don't care if this is profitable, ain't nobody got time to pick up all those shards

[@Laschwappen]

I ran over 800 maps with exactly this strategy. Maybe I was just unlucky, but I never saw Mirror Shards.

[@Qintsal]

harbringer is the worst imo. i killed like 100 (without atlas specct into it) and got one fracture shard. they just take way too long to kill. if possible i ignore them.

[@Vegan-sj1cv]

someone said in comments that if you have increased action speed for maps it affects the harbies
