hello YouTube, this is B Mage again, and uh, we're coming at you with an outlas Strat that I've been running for the last three or 4 days, uh, 4 days I think, that has not only earned me my Mage blood so that I have one now, but also has me sitting on, I believe, 7,000 chaos and another 300 div left over. So, it's been working quite well, uh, as you can see in the background, we don't have to run any tier 17s for it. In fact, running tier 17s would burn into our profits quite a bit. The idea in the background here is that we are running the biggest juice tier 16 maps that we can possibly run. This also makes them quite dangerous, but we're doing this with the maximum amount of effect, the maximum amount of quantity, some shr mines, and some extra connected map drop points. And the idea is we drop as many Maps as possible, as many Maps as possible. I'm averaging 10 to 15 Maps dropping on the floor per map of those.

20% of them are Guardian maps that I just get to sell in bulk. Lots of lots of Guardian Maps, lots of those synth Maps, lots of those that all sell the most. The rest of the 80% are all of my favorite Maps, which each sell for 5c a piece, and I'm selling them in bulk. I do not do 5c trades. We've been selling bulk maps for days now, U 25 to 100 chaos. People just rock up and buy 25 Maps over and over and over again. That's why I've got such a huge pile of chaos. And we get tier 17 maps in bulk, and when you have them in bulk, they easily sell for .9 divines per map. So all my divines has come from selling tier 17 maps, and all my chaos has come from selling all of the tier 16 maps that drop. Plus, there are an absolute ton of maps of stain for myself. I've even been Mass selling the maps that I'm running because there are just too many Maps. So

everything is for sale. It's fantastic. So let's jump in and have a look at strategy. So for starters, I will have this linked. I will also have the document linked with all of my strategies in it. But for now, this is what it looks like. So we have all of the map effect modifiers all through the top, all the map effect modifiers, all the Quant modifiers, every single thing that could make, give me more pack size, give me more quantity, give me more Rarity, every single bit of everything that I could possibly get. And these are important, all of the shaping nodes as well that give you extra tiers because those just equate to more maps. The only things that is like questionable or not questionable but like optional is the last few extra points that we've put in here aren't super needed. So we could go without these connected Maps. The only real problem is it's not enough points to get into a proper third thing. I could be running abyss and that does give you like quite a bit extra map drops, but then you have to

stop and chase the abyss around. I didn't like that I could have gone strong boxes, but you can't get them rare and corrupted without like having them drop a bunch of corrupted Maps, which would get in my way. I didn't want that either. Everything else seemed to slow me down, so I just went with all the connected map nodes, so that's fine. What do we do with our Maps? Well, for starters, we run eight mod corrupted Maps. That's just start with because we want as many modifiers on our map as we can. Then I'm running three cartography risk of cartography Scarab of risks. There are alternatives to this if you can't do it. Stay with me. This is the best way if you can run all map mods. There is an alternative. We'll get to it in a second. So we're going to run three of these, so that's going to put us on an 11 mod corrupted map with three random modifiers that we don't even get to control that already has a starting between like 280 and 300%.

quantity on our maps, and usually like 84 to 95% is pack size. Then one craphy Scarab of escalation, 10% increase Maps found in area for each map modifier affecting the area, so that's 110% increase Maps. Then my fourth Scarab changed around a bit. We have a bunch of options. We can put another risk one in, make the map even harder, get another 10%. I didn't do that very often. We can do shrines because we have shrines on the atlas, and we will be taking domination on the map device. Shrines come with packs of mobs. They're great, but also just having a shrine makes you stronger, makes you faster. Good extra shrines is fantastic. We will need to run cartography Scarab of corruption for a little bit. Generally, I run a stack of 20 of these, gathering my own favorite maps to run, and then I get 60 to 80ish of my maps to run, and I drop that and go back to normal maps and

the one I've been favoring is this one influencing Scarab of conversion tier 14 plus maps have a chance to drop shaper Elder conqueror or unique synth Maps now a lot of my maps have sold I've been selling those in bulk and I've certainly been selling all these Guardians quite a bit of them as well and you can still actually see you can still see I have quite a lot of Guardian Maps just sitting here that I haven't sold yet I also have an absolute ton of these synth maps that I haven't sold yet so there's plenty more for that I love Gathering them and selling them in bulk they're all really good too so I've been favoring that and I've been mostly swapping between these two I'll just run the eight mod corrupted until I have enough Maps swap the eight mod corrupted out put the influencing scar conversion in but Baylor what if my build can't run every single map mod in existence well good news the toned down version of this

is only about 30% less returns. Um, I haven't gone over how much you make per hour, and I'm not going to because everybody maps at different speeds. What is important is it's fun, and it is profitable. Okay, so it's absolutely worth doing. I have made a ton of money doing it in just a few days, and I've got plenty left to sell. I'm not going to tell people how much per hour anything is 'cause that changes way too rapidly to ever be relevant. But how do we tone it down a little bit so that a regular build that can't run all map mods can still do it well? What we can do as an alternative is we can do cartography Scarab of escalation. We are still going to run eight mod corrupted Maps. It just means you get to control what the mods are. All your builds can run eight mod corrupted Maps if you avoid the mods that brick your build. You can't avoid the mods that brick your build when you're running

cartography scar of risks 'cause they add extra ones at random, so we can't do that. So, if you can't run all map mods, we're going to go Kar Scarab of escalation. We're also going to go influencing Scarab of the Elder. You can also swap this out for shaper if you prefer shaper. The only reason I prefer Elder over shaper is because shaper keeps freezing my maps every time I get to the boss, and that's annoying, so I don't want to do that. Then, influencing monsters in the area have 40% increased pack size. That will affect the elders and the blue Alters. Those are both influence packs, so that's 40% pack size for both of them. And then, I've been running in the last spot hunted Traders 'cause I tested this out for four or five hours to make sure that the lower version of this was fine. It's about 30% less returns overall, so still quite worth it. Absolutely still going to Rak in money, not quite as good as the

risk setup but still worth doing. And then the last one is the same deal. You're going to run your own eight mod corrupted maps. And when you're done with those, you're going to put in influencing Scarab conversion and grab Shaper and El Guardian maps. All in all, these are actually quite cheap maps to run. All these scarabs can be bought in bulk, even from Fess, at pretty good prices. They're all very common, very easy to get scarabs. Absolutely nothing here is super expensive. The one other thing worth mentioning is that I'm not sure that hunted Traders really did much to this, right? So in the lower version here, if you want to swap hunted Traders out for anything else, please be my guest. Domination will make it easier and quicker to run the map. If you can find another Scarab you like the look of more, that is definitely a bit of a wild card slot. Hunted Traders just put the most amount of mobs in my map. Other good things about this strategy is with this

setup with the Lesser setup. Here, I get about 20,000 gold per map, which only takes three minutes, so it ends up being quite fast. With the risk setup, I end up getting about 35,000 gold per map, which still only takes me 3 minutes, so that's also really fun. I have currently 5.6 million gold, and I haven't even walked into tier 17s yet, so that's going quite well. So yeah, that is the entire strategy. Now, the one question I did get a few times is why I don't have this node, and the reason is eight mod corrupted Maps almost never ever drop with quality, so I just don't have that. Now, next question: what map should I do this in? Well, that doesn't matter. The answer is it absolutely doesn't matter. You can do it in whatever thing you want. The only thing that matters is that we don't farm Citadel map. Okay, Fortress, Sanctuary, Zurat, and Abomination all sell really well. Citadel does not sell really well.

it sells a lot slower, and it sells for about 40% less than the others. So we do not want to farm Citadel map. Whenever we look at our Atlas, any map you look at, it'll tell you what map it drops. Tier 17 maps that drop are Abomination. Tier 17 maps that drop are cigarettes. So I did it in Jungle Valley and toxic sewer. The reason I picked that is purely because my build liked toxic sewer. Playing death o toxic sewer was really, really good for that. But you could do this absolutely anywhere you wanted. Any map is fine. The only maps that will not be fine are the ones that give you Citadel. We want to skip those. We do not want to be Mass farming citadels. That's cutting 30 to 40% your profit out immediately just by picking a map that has Citadel instead. So the only stipulation here is whatever map you favorite, don't make it a citadel map. Now the one annoying part here when creating your apod maps, for instance, I wanted a

lot of toxic sewers. When I went to create my apod maps, I had to go and put all my favorites on toxic sewer and then do that for 20 straight maps. So, I was dropping almost exclusively toxic sewers. I even took to taking out two points here and putting them in singular Focus while I was running that. You do not want singular Focus while you're running the influence scar conversion, or you will lose all those Guardian Maps. So, we don't normally have it, but I would spec two points out, put them in singular Focus, run 20 or 40 maps with the corrupting scarab, gather all of my favorite Maps, then I will unspec those nodes, swap out my corrupting Scarab, put back in my influencing Scarab, and then also change all my favorite Maps. Now, these changed rapidly. I would sell jungle Valley, sometimes I'd be selling maces, I'd be selling City squares, I'd be selling strands, I'd be selling beaches, basically whatever I could get that would sell for four chaos a map.

that's what I would sell. So, how we do that real quick because I know I'm going to get this question a lot. You right-click on the map tab for whatever map you want to sell, right? I'll do it on a new one, public set, and then 100 chaos for 25 maps. And you set it like that, type it there. When you hit enter, it becomes public, and it'll tell you or chaos. If at any point I find that I have the tab full and it doesn't seem to be selling, I will backspace that. I'll put it in for 30, which will lower the price a little. And if I find that I have to do that twice to any map, I'll stop favoring it. I'll move to another map for now. Tons of maps will sell in bulk, absolutely tons of them. You don't want to be sitting there with a full tab full of one map and then just not changing to another map. It's really easy to change your favorites around. You get so many of them here. I promise someone will come

by if your jungle Valley tab is full. Somebody will come by eventually and pick up those jungle valleys. They will not stay there full forever, but if your tab fills up, swap your favorites over to another map. That tab fills up, swap your favorites over to another map, and then somebody will show up and buy a whole hundred of them. And that's the whole strap. We just keep selling everything in bulk, thousands and thousands of Chaos, hundreds of divines, tons of AE, tons of gold. Honestly, one of my more favorite strats. I really enjoyed it. I hope it serves everybody else really well. That is all I have, and I will see everybody later. Goodbye.

Balor Printed T17 Drops For His Mageblood With This Strat | PoE 3.25 Settler's of Kalguur

BalorMage

B Mage has been using a Tier 16 map strategy for the past four days, earning 7,000 chaos and 300 divines.

The strategy involves running high-juice Tier 16 maps, maximizing map drops, and selling them in bulk, with a focus on Guardian and favorite maps.

The approach has resulted in a surplus of maps, chaos, and divines, making it a highly effective method for generating in-game currency.

The strategy involves running eight mod corrupted maps to maximize modifiers, complemented by three cartography scarabs for a 110% increase in map quantity.

Additional scarabs, such as escalation and shrines, are used to further boost map drops and player strength.

The player also focuses on gathering and selling guardian and unique synth maps in bulk for extra profit.

Running eight-mod corrupted maps can be profitable, and using a Cartography Scarab of Escalation allows for better control over the mods.

Influencing Scarabs of the Elder or Shaper can increase pack size for monsters, while Hunted Traders can be used for additional returns.

This strategy may yield slightly lower returns, but it is still lucrative and worth pursuing.

Efficient Gold Farming Strategy in Corrupted Maps

Running eight mod corrupted maps is a cost-effective way to generate gold, with each map yielding around 20,000 to 35,000 gold in just three minutes.

Influencing Scarab conversion and targeting Shaper and El Guardian maps further enhances the strategy, with all scarabs being common and affordable.

The choice of map doesn't matter, but avoiding the Citadel map is recommended, as it doesn't sell well.

The Citadel maps have slower sales and lower prices, so they should be avoided for farming.

Any non-Citadel map can be chosen for farming, with a focus on personal favorites.

The strategy involves running multiple maps, using Scarabs for influence, and quickly changing favorites to maximize profit.

To sell maps for chaos, right-click on the map tab and set the price (e.

If the tab fills up and doesn't sell, lower the price or switch to another map.

Continuously changing favorites and selling in bulk will lead to successful sales.
