Path of Exile 3.25: Tier 17 Jungle Valley Ambush Farming Strategy

Farming tier 17 maps for eight mod maps and jungle Valley Ambush strategy is easier with key upgrades like armor, res, and leech.

### Optimizing Tier 17 Jungle Valley Ambush Farming for Path of Exile Berserkers
* 🌿  Running Tier 7 maps for 8-mod maps is a great strategy, with Jungle Valley being the preferred map due to its lack of **"map boss gains X" modifiers** on Alters.
* 📊  Milky's Atlas tree is recommended, focusing on **Jungle Valley and shrine nodes** for **easier map running**.
* 🔒  Recommended scarabs for this strategy include **three Cartography of the Multitude**, **one Cartography Scarab with corruption**, and **one Cartography Scarab of Escalation**.
* 📦  The Ambush strategy involves running through the map first, then going back to **click all the strongboxes** after boosting quantity at the altars.
* 💪  For Berserkers, upgrading gear for defense is crucial, with specific recommendations for **armor bases, resistance, and life regeneration**.
* 🏹  Echo of Creation is a powerful upgrade for damage, but should only be acquired after **optimizing rare gear for defense**.
* ⚙️  Automating warcries and using specific gems like **General's Cry** for **Earth Shatter** are recommended for **smoother gameplay**.
* 💰  Crafting a high DPS axe involves using **Fractured Fossils and Veiled Chaos Orbs**, with specific affixes like **Zeal for attack speed** and **Fizz for flat physical damage**.

yo day whatever of the league just wanted to go over my farm which has been jungle Valley Ambush boxes and how the build's been going. If you want some zerker tips echos of creation my upgrades and survival and stuff like that, I'll have that towards the end of the video, but for now let's just talk about the farm. So I know it's a little bit scary, okay, we're pretty early in the league, some of you still, you know, casual dad gamers going through only just getting to yellow or red maps, and I'm going to talk about tier 17s, but there's some pretty valuable tips here and I think a lot of people are going to have a much better time in tier 17s than they did before, even if there's still some annoyance there. So for tier 17s, why I am in a tier 17 while I was doing them was just to farm eight mod maps. T7s are actually a great place to farm eight mod. So if you don't know, a mod map is

just a map that's dropped and it's corrupted and it has eight mods on it. Whereas you can normally only have six. Uh, you know, you get the corrupted eight mods and they get those extra two. So they're juicier. You get more pack size. You get more Quant. And that pairs perfectly with running Jungle Valley and Blue Alters and opening a bunch of Ambush strong boxes. So T7s are a great place to farm these eight mod maps. And I'll go over the tree and the scarabs. But just about farming the T7s, something that you will have to do if you want to do this. Are a couple things to make it easier for you. So I did two recs. I went through and I'll post them in the YouTube description. I'll just have like a little section there. If you're playing Zerker slams, these are the ones I was doing. There might still be some mods, but it's at least a decent start that'll get you well enough into doable tier 17s or

I should say more doable, you know, the bosses can still be rough. I might even die in this clip. I don't know, this is just yo from yesterday's stream. You can always go watch my VOD and, you know, catch whatever I, you know, I do it all live, right? The bosses are still a little bit rough and until you get geared out and I've have pretty nice gear, right? You might just want to skip them if you're just trying to get the eight mods. But some things that make it easier, like I said, the double Rex. Another thing is I'm using Milky's Atlas tree, which we'll go over after this. And with Milky's Atlas tree, you pick up a lot of shrine stuff. Even if you're taking a lot of increased effect of map mods, you take a lot of shrine nodes. And with those Shrine nodes, it makes the actual running of the map a lot easier. Now, the bosses, especially on this map, I think this is like probably one of the worst bosses to do that Fortress that

big guy in the middle that seems like an easy one. Uh, for fragments, but the fragments from these sell for a pretty penny, so I don't mind fighting them, and it's like kind of fun. I don't know, I'm feel I like I'm having fun with the build. I just like it's nice. I'm doing Maps, I'm doing jungle valleys. I do a ground slam, boom, everything gets exploded. So it's kind of nice to like have a little bit of difficulty. It's like, oh, you're going to, you're actually going to make me try. Like, you know, I can't, I can't stand in the purple thing. Oh my gosh, right, my neurons are activated. Uh, it's kind of fun, you know. I don't, I don't mind doing it. Like, whatever dude. If I die once, you know, it is what it is. Um, so you could, you could skip bosses, or you could do an easier one. Abomination is a little bit rough with the triple boss and the Unholy whatever the hell going on, um, but

shrines are a nice boost for just being able to run them t7s. On their own, are already much easier than they were last league. And then another thing, if you'll notice down here, you'll see I'm running triple ell flasks. Now I already have a ton of maxr. I have some maxr Jewels. I've got Max res on my body armor. I've got Max res on the tree. And with these triple ell flasks, this actually gets me to 90 Max res. Now they're not up all of the time, but if I'm getting hit, they'll tend towards being up because I've rolled them with the gain three charges when hit and use on full. And so it's not totally optimal, um, you know, I'm not pressing them. I could be pressing them, which might give me some more uptime, um, but like, you know, my brain's off and I can kind of just click stuff and fight the boss, uh, this one was like, what is this, 170 more life and whatever the

hell else uh you know I my auras don't work which kind of that's some damage uh so you know it took a little bit but you know I get some fragments and some of these are worth like 60 chos each uh the Blazing fragment is like 30C you know like whatever I'll fight it I'll fight a little boss um but ell FL shrines and then reading your altars if you're doing these now you see my inventory all those jungle valleys are eight mod corrupted and so I get to filter through all of those for the Ambush strategy so let's go ahead the rest of this is just like I run around and I I fight you know and I kill the t7 map it's it's pretty simple but let's go over the actual Atlas for farming the tier 17 maps it's exactly what you would expect right you get all the map stuff uh this should be I'm should be blocking more things here I take some Scarab nodes singular focus

and then all of your favorite slots are jungle Valley. Uh, more map chance Quant Rarity. And then all the effect on the tree because the tier 17s will have a modifier, and they should be rolled for that modifier that gives 100% increased chance to drop maps. And then that gets increased, you know, we get some more scarabs. BL Alters can give quantity, but you have to read them to make sure you don't get I accident I clicked gain Fizz AA, and that made the boss a lot more rough. So you know just be careful there. Also, you can quality your t17 Maps now, so use your chisels, and you get even more increase effect of the map mods. But yeah, it's pretty simple. Now as for the scarabs that you'll use, you're going to do three craphy of the multitude. This is all from Milky by the way. I'm going to link Milky's. I should have said this way sooner. This is all Milky, the Milky, uh, t17 map stuff, and the Ambush strategy is

I just stole it from Milky's Google sheet. I'll have that linked down below. He's got a lot of great stuff. He's a great currency content creator. He's a homie, okay. I love this man. He's great for T, great for P. He always puts the work in, and he has a great Google sheet with a lot of strategies that I can go to. If I'm getting bored of one, I'll go to the next. And if I'm having some problems, go hit him up on the stream and be like, Hey man, what do you think? What do I do? You know, whatever. Yeah, great guy. I don't know, I like him. He's a real one. Okay, Scarabs, Cartography, oh, Multip. Sorry, I just had to fade him real quick there. We use this because it gives a bunch of packs that give a bunch of maps. Pretty self-explanatory. The next Scarab you use, so you use three of those, right? Add a bunch of packs. You use one Cartography.

Scarab with corruption. You know we're farming eight mods so you got to use the Scarab that gives you the eight mod corrupted maps. And then for the last one, it's going to be the cartography Scarab of escalation which gives more map mods cuz we got a bunch of mods on the t17. We're going to get a bunch more maps uh in those. And then on the map device, all you do is blue alters and you'll do domination to add more shrines. The shrines can make the bosses a lot easier so if you're a little bit weaker you could just pick up the shrines and head straight to the boss and try to blast them right away. But but they also make the running of the map itself a lot easier too if you're weaker. And so it's actually not so bad to be able to farm some eight mod jungle valleys in tier 17s as long as you roll them well, use some shrines, and maybe even pick up some Maximum Elemental resistance flasks so.

that was really nice. I was really surprised how much easier T7s were this league. It's, you know, especially with how intimidating and annoying and just having like a fun little break from the Jungle Valley Ambush, being able to farm my own Maps. You know, I don't have to go buy eight mods. I don't have to deal with any of that. I could just like get my own stash. And so that's what I did. We got these were all the ones that I can do. And where were they? These were the crappy ones. Oh yeah, I just put all the crappy ones in here. So these were all the some of these were from my old one, but a lot of the new ones right here like these three rows were just the ones that I can't do with this build. So I'm going to have my map Runners do those or I'll wait for my next build that might have a different Rex of corrupted Maps. But we got 40 of these. So now I'm going to do the Ambush strategy on Jungle.

Valley and so all that really entails is running through the map like this. Um, I'll go back a little bit. You run through. Uh, you don't open any of the boxes right away, but you run through, you kill all the influence monsters that spawn. You know, it's pretty comfy on like ground slam. I've even automated like seismic, so I'm not even like pressing seismic. I'll read the altars just so that I know. Uh, what's up. And really all I'm looking for is like a greater eldritch or Divine. Uh, just so that I know in the end after I've run all the maps and all the altars have spawned, I can see if I want to go back to the start to click that altar that'll drop me greater or grand eldritch or eer Embers or if hit a Divine, you know, I know not to click any of the other altars before or until I click that one, right? Um, otherwise all you do is you just click quantity, uh, eers, right? Those sell for like two or

three C each. You click that or you just do like Scarab dupe or whatever dupe. And on this build, you should not click minus physical damage reduction or reduced recovery for endurance charge. You can do reduced defense at just take your blood rage out if you really want uh but most of the time I'll just like you know not bother. I'll just click the alter mod. You just run through get all the Alters. You'll do the Bismuth because apparently if you do those they'll like you know bismuth bus uh Buffs the rest of the monsters the map. You just get a bunch of Quant and then you go through and you click all the boxes right after you've boosted the quantity up uh after you do all this and it it might be like a little bit annoying and whatever to do the map and then click the alters and then do your boxes but the way I think of it is I when I get it when I I get that Divine altar I am totally set up.

I'm in an eight mod map. All my altars have not yet been clicked, and I am 100% set up to get a ton of divines when I get it. Okay, because I will. I will get it versus you click the altars as you go, and you might hit Divine alter on the very last Altar, and now you have no more altars that are spawning packs of monsters that you can choose duplicate currency on, you know, etc., etc. Uh, and so yeah, that's my cope, at least, uh, you know, it's not, it's not too bad. You know, I've got Leaf slam. I'm running around Jungle Valley. It's not too bad. Uh, one quick thing, why you do Jungle Valley. If you'll notice the alter mods, none of them have the map boss gains whatever modifier. That's why you run on Jungle Valley because the spider's in the air, it hasn't spawned, so none of the Alters can have the map boss stuff until you enter the arena and start the boss fight. So that's why everybody runs.

Jungle Valley. It just gives you better alter mods for red alters, for blue Alters. It's like the premier map of choice. So then you just click a bunch of alters, and you click all your strong boxes, and the strong boxes give pretty decent gold. I'm getting, I think it was like 20 to 25k on the eight mods, 20 to 25k per map gold, and then you get a bunch of currency. So you're getting raw currency drops, you're getting random Jungle Valleys that you can sell. Well, but really I was running those, so I didn't even really care about those. I was corrupting mine before I did the t17 thing to get like try and get some eight mods, but the t7s were just so much easier. I'm disappointed I didn't do that earlier, but it is what it is. You get some random div cards that'll sell right, so you get like random six Link cards, random Divine cards, right, and you might think like it's a little bit lucky.

but man, when you open 200 boxes and you know, like, 500 Divine cards, uh, divination cards drop, uh, you know you are going to get some decent ones. It's not luck when you can keep hitting it like that, you know? I'm not saying I got a head on her card, and I count that. I also, I'm not going to talk about Divine for an hour. The all of this stuff is changing so fast this early in the league. Um, I just know I'm making currency. I'm happy with the farm. I'm having a good time. It's fun, and like, I, you know, I do 20 maps and I get 25 divines out of it. It's something like that, right? Yeah, I put 10 in and I get 25 div out. Like I'm happy, whatever that is, however fast I could do them, however fast you could do them, whatever the price is, happen. I know it's going to be profitable, and that was before I was even doing eight mods. Um, you know, those were like, I, I in a set of 20, I like five.

actual eight mods and the rest were like 70. Quan it was trash. Uh, so now I'm going to make even more on today's stream. I'm so excited. Uh, but that's the, that, that's the strategy I've been doing. It's pretty nice. Uh, and I'm excited to do them with real t17 formed eight mod maps. Uh, but yeah, it's strong boxes, man. They're easy. You just click stuff. Uh, I get a nice amount of gold. What is there not to like? Uh, as for the strong box tree, we'll go over that quick again from milky. Exactly what you'd expect singular Focus. So I only get jungle valleys. You're going to block scarabs. Oh, you also get some decent scarabs too. Uh, and then you just take the Ambush stuff. So you block all the bad scarabs, take the NCO nodes. Uh, this is just for damage, move speed, but more so when you get the sulfite, the Doom spirits will actually when you click the sulfite node, they'll give some extra strong boxes or Shrine Buffs.

sometimes uh cuz I don't know he's crazy or something so I don't even know if the strong boxes are but I click them and they give loot so maybe if it's all in my head but I can still trade it then who cares. Okay, anyways, strong box map chance. I got to do my imitations. I'm missing a little bit there, you know, double all the everything, the blue Alters, the scarabs, the effect, missing a couple points. I'll probably just get those last five points today just so I can get the extra map chance and you know a valuable pack and an extra Nico node. And then I like to do the Ambush scarabs because these are very valuable uh and they're a little bit expensive but you know it's worth it. They're like uh we'll talk about the scarabs I guess that is the next step uh for the Ambush scarabs you'll do two of these and these are about like eight or nine chaos each. What are they? Yeah, they're like NC you'll do.

two of these you'll do a potency so 75% increased effect of the mods on your boxes. So you're going to give up five strong boxes to just make all of the other so around like 15 or 14 of them have 75% increased effect of their explicit. So they'll drop more items and you know they'll just be better spawn more monsters and all that. 15% chance to open strong boxes again and then strong boxes in area are more likely to be a rare variety. So Ambush Ambush ambush of potency ambush of hidden compartments and ambush of discernment. This one's getting a little more expensive. I think it's like 20 something chaos. Yeah. I was doing 20 now they're 26. The strategy you know if the margins were that small then it wouldn't have been a good farm. So an extra five chaos for that one Scarab compared to yesterday's fine. And then these are just like three or four. This one is like two chaos so you do

have a little bit of an entry cost, and I probably will do a video of more budget strategies, but this is just a nice one if you know you want something to look forward to, or if you're looking for a kind of more juicy Farm to invest into, which you always should, right? You should start with an Elken go, and then you should get something after you buy some upgrades with your Elken go Strat to make your build comfy, right? And that, for me, it was like yellow map Essences. I did that till my build was comfy, and then I did that a little bit more so I could get some currency to do a strategy like this, and then I start ramping and buying more supplies and getting better upgrades and going from there, uh, but then you just do Ambush on the map device through the K mod, but that is the strategy, that's what I've been farming. Now let's go on to the build, so I've been getting some questions about like Echo and how to get some more survival.

because it's a Berserker uh so let's just start with the survival stuff, and we can do echo of creation because not too many people are going to be doing that yet um I mean first off, I've been having a ton of fun on the build uh, but the thing is with Berserker, you get all of your damage for free, but then your defense, you have to boost up with your upgrades, right? So your damage is really free. If you want your defense to be higher, you have to care, you have to give an f about your gear, okay? So some of those ways that you can care about your gear is going to be getting good armor bases. So number one, getting some of the new armor base slots, right? Titan gauntlets, I've got these gloves which have some big armor on them. I got lucky on the T1 armor, T1 whatever, but I would have eldr chaos and settled on like T3, uh, maybe I hit a big life and I craft an armor, right? Uh, this isn't like the most

important one really you just want res and suffix. You know, this was like buy a fractured base for 10 chaos, and I spammed like shrieking Envy or something until I hit another res. And then you can always res swap on the Harvest bench so it doesn't matter which one you hit, right? But I wanted some chaos res. That's another big thing that you need to do is get some chaos res or you're just going to die to chaos damage and Chaos Degen. This build is weak to degens and we'll cover that later. These Boots aren't a good armor base, but getting shock avoid here and having an abyss Jewel with more shock avoid so that I'm now shock immune, that's nice. I'm not taking big spikes of damage from that ailment anymore, uh, and I was socketing this on my tree until I got a belt yesterday, um, another thing, your body armor having a high armor base, but if you can't afford a high armor base, one of the new ones like a Titan.

plate or something. You could totally just get an old one and use a five-link since you're a Berserker, but get 7 physical damage reduction, you know, 6 to 8 physical damage reduction on the body armor and that implicit up top for 11 Fizz taken as cold. And before Echoes, you can get another like 6 or 7 physical taken as an element on your rare helmet as well. And that's also what I did before Echo. And then of course, you want to try to get some more armor on this slot. Uh, your body armor can get like 3.5 to 4K armor. Unfortunately, uh, I have big life T1 per armor, and I hit T7 flat, but I got nice life regen, and I got nice PDR an open stach. So I'm settling, settling on this because the life regen is really nice. Like I said, we're a little bit Su. We're not a little bit. We are susceptible to damage over time, especially with right of Ruin and all of our rage making us.

lose our life per rage and and so another thing you do is you should always have these life regen nodes maybe even taking the Mastery for a flat 50. Uh I'm going to sell this quick sorry you 90k as I mean can you blame me. Uh but yeah so I hit LIF regen here. I have life regen on my boots. I got life regen on my belt and that alone is a reason for why you'd want to be upgrading your suffixes right. You might say well my resistances are capped you know. I got capped res and maybe my chaos res sure it could be higher no okay when you get T1 T1 T1 res okay. T1 right you know you get Big Res T2 T3 maybe even right you get a couple big reses now my boots have an extra slot right because I got chaos res here. I don't need to get chaos res on my boots now. I can get life regen on my boots because I have Big Res in my

rings. I don't need Big Res on my body armor. Now I can get physical damage reduction and life regen on my body armor. That's how you have to think, and that's how you upgrade your defenses, very basically. Now for Echoes, I did not have a lot of armor when I swapped to Echoes, and I see a lot of people swapping the echo early 'cause it gives you like 75% more damage. It's bananas. You also get an extra use on your war cries, which is really nice, right? For starting the map, I just press enduring cry twice, and I'm at Max endurance charges. Beyond that, endurance charges while you're clearing, a lot of people are like, Do I have to press enduring cry all the time? Hell no, you don't. I wouldn't be playing this build if you did, okay? I press enduring cry when I'm doing t17 Maps 'cause I respect these for Max res, but when I'm just mapping, I don't have to have any crazy defenses, right? I just have to have

it to be okay, and so you get endurance charge on kill and charge duration. Now you could do an enduring cry at the start of the map, and if your Echoes with low armor, you absolutely should because that first attack will chunk you, but after that, the endurance charge on kill and the charge duration will keep you topped off for the rest of the map. With 20-second endurance charges, you could also give up a body armor implicit to get the generate endurance charge every 15-second mod, and then you have 100% uptime on those as well. But I'd rather have two Max res here, um, and the thing is like for enduring cry, all you got to do then is while you wait for like a boss or something, you just press enduring cry once, and it'll reset your endurance charges because you have war cries have a Min of 10 power Mastery, um, but yeah, that's endurance charge while you're clearing. It's really nice. The only buttons I'm pressing while I'm clearing are ground slam, leap slam, and

that's it. I've even gone and just put make an auto exert uh, and I just say, like, f it. I'm just going to have the AOE all the time. I'll give up the armor for now 'cause I've got some pretty nice armor, so like screw it, dude. And I'll just press infernal cry and enduring cry while I wait for the spider boss to come down, and then that's it. I'm just running around right-clicking. It's so nice. It's so nice and not have to press any war cries all the time. God bless Auto exert, uh. Another thing, it's expensive, but you can look forward to that upgrade, is a jewel like this. Now, 7% armor. I'm getting something like an extra 15 or 177,000 armor from this, which is nothing to scoff at, you know. I'm going from like 40 whatever k to 60k. Um, now this jewel is like seven div, though, so right, but that's not necessary. A cheaper option that you can do once you have some PDR.

and Fizz shift for Echo is to grab the recoup Mastery on these leech nodes so 25 damage taken recouped as life. If leech was removed, this carried me this PDR Fizz shift. That's it, that's all I had right, and then I pressed my during cry, and that was enough for Echoes. Now there was still some times where if I had like a less recovery map and I started rolling over that mod because if I didn't have that, you know my leech isn't kicking in, my regen is not kicking in, the recoup is not kicking in as much, and then the echo starts hurting. So I just don't do that map mod, you know, some things like that, but you know the easy stuff is just the recoup High armor PDR and making sure you have your endurance Chargers, and then Echo should be fine. You absolutely cannot just buy Echo while you have like dog water rares, right? Echo, you need to earn it. You are taking a lot of damage, it will be

uncomfortable. Do not buy it early. Okay, invest in your rare gear first and then you get to earn that 75% more damage. Some other things I'm thinking for upgrading. Oh, also just you know, have your flask right, roll your flask, don't be a bum, get like three charges on a granite so it's up all the time. And you know, get reduced effect of curses and whatever the hell. Um, but you know, now I'm feeling pretty comfortable. Uh, all I'm missing I feel is some recovery and that's what I'm working on next. Uh, you see, I have some life regen here that's pretty helpful. What I'm going to work on next is trying to fit in a glorious vanity here, taking this Keystone and getting, I believe it's Immortal ambition. Uh, now that will give me over Leach and over Leach is really nice. That's going to make the build so much more comfortable to have over Leach all the time. And I might even go as far as taking these leech nodes right here.

because this gives an extra 30. Max, this gives a 40. Max, and then the Mastery will give 25. Max. So I'll be getting 70, uh, or excuse me, I'll be getting 95 maximum. Total Recovery from Leech from this node. And then 100 total. So if you don't know what that means, the 100 Total Recovery just makes my smaller hits leech better. So that's not really too important. Um, it was really important and why I picked these up in the PO that I had, uh, early on was the total recovery and you know all of this. And then the Mastery for the Total Recovery gives attack speed early on. It's nice while leveling for white in yellow and early red Maps while you don't have much damage. That Total Recovery makes it easier for you to leech off your hits while you're not doing too much damage. I'm Berserker. It's not too much an issue. Jug, it probably be a lot bigger. But the total maximum is increasing the max amount that you can

leech and so getting 95 means I'm nearly doubling the amount I can leech. And the base Max life leech cost uh life leech rate is 20% of my life per second. And so if I'm nearly doubling that, right 95, it's going to be something like what 39% of my life per second. That sounds very comfortable with some life regen. That sounds very, very comfortable. So I'm very much looking forward to figuring that out, finding the points for it or leveling up to fit it in because then I've got a ton of resistance with flasks. I'll be at 95 uh with a slight tree spec. I get an extra what is this so for fire reses I get one three. I'm at 85 there an extra two there two there. So I'm at 85 86 85. And then I just use my flasks if I'm going to do an Uber boss or a tier 17. And I'm at 90 Max res with five endurance charges and I

believe, uh, I was at 60k armor without my flasks, uh, with all the war cry. Whatever, oh, that's another thing. I'm so sorry. It's disjointed. Leag star, I just click record videos, uh, you know, you listen to the ramble. Another thing is warning call. This is really nice, right? 100% armor, and then you get another however much from however much rage you have from this rage node. And you might not want a berserk and all that either, but I'll link my PO some other random things. I've done was because I'm a bum and I don't want to press buttons. I link automation molten shell, berserk, and blood rage. Now you could do cast damage taken molten shell, and it'll trigger your Echoes all the time, but I like this 'cause I can have a Max rais molten shell. I can have my berserk popping all the time, so while I'm clearing them up, I don't even have to press berserk, you know, my war cries are generating, uh, my war cries are.

generating rage that war cries have 10min power uh, and then I have the war cry Mastery where they give rage per power, so that's really nice. I get rage all the time. I'm getting rage on hit from all the rage nodes from my war cries. Berserks up. I get the attack speed from Berserker. I get the more damage all the time, you know. I get the rage effect and all of that, uh, and it, you know, it's nice. I don't have to press any buttons like I said. All I'm doing is right-clicking, uh, and then I press, you know, my infernal or enduring, um, you know, really it'd be like seismic or whatever. And then the one thing is for Earth shatter, for those of you who are doing tier 17s, you will want to do Earth shatter instead of ground slam. I do close combat too just to give me more attack speed on my leaf slam, uh. I do this instead of, I believe it's brutality, yeah. I do that instead of

brutality. You will swap in Earth Shatter though, so you'll swap Earth Shatter in here, and you'll also want to swap out a Battle Mage Cry for a General's Cry. And that will pop your spikes much faster for you, right? So these spikes, they explode when you war cry. General Cry has lower cooldown. I don't even, did I cover this in the other video? I just, I get a lot of questions about that, uh, and so you do a little bit of changing things around. And then you would obviously have like for tier 17 maps, you would re-put your Infernal Cry and your Max, and you'd be manually casting Seismic Cry so you get the extra armor, right? T7 Maps, you got to care a little bit until you just start one-shotting everything. But other than and and you self-cast your vulnerability so you press buttons in T7s, but it's only for a few and it's kind of fun. I'm not going to lie, you know, to have the actual difficulty, you know, uh, you got to try a

little bit you got to care a little bit um it's kind of nice. I feel like they're in a lot better of a position, but I do have really nice gear, so you know that is a privileged position. I should probably change my annoyance around, but yeah, anyways over Leach I'm probably getting some Vermillion Rings today, and then I'm going to be grinding out gear for my second character, which is going to be a Respec of this, not even a Respec really. Um, I'm just going to retool it to be a much more endgame Slammer. It should be really fun, and I'm very much looking forward to that, but I've got to make some currency to buy all the very big big upgrades. Oh, for crafting an axe H, oh my gosh, it's 30 minutes in the video. Okay, who's even watching at this point for crafting a all right axe crafting. How do you make a big Axe really simply okay, grab a fractured and use contempt for flat Fizz or Zeal for attack speed and

then you could just craft Fizz uh after you hit like one of the other mods right uh. For my big axe, what I did was I spammed Zeal for a hybrid, and then I just did a prefix lock or uh you have to like a null down, and then you Veil chaos right. It's a little bit of a veil chaos yellow, but I got a pretty nice axe here. It didn't hit impale chance, but it's decent enough. It's 976 Fizz DPS. You know I have the enchant on there and everything, and I went with an esite base because I was really sick of my Ki Chopper having such low attack speed. It made the leap slamming feel bad. It made my clear a lot worse and slower, and I'm just doing boxes so I don't really need to have like a really slow attack weapon for that. And with the high attack speed, I do chug through all my exerts, but on berserk I get double exert. I chug through them pretty fast still uh.

I'm okay with that. For having better map clear, I'm okay giving up some single-target damage versus like a Vax, for example, so that I have a faster attack speed. So that it's more fun and more comfortable. It's just the give and take that I decided would be worth it. Anyways, like sub, let me know if you made it 30 minutes. The video and uh, you know, hit me up on stream if you got some questions. Join the Discord if you need some help. It can be a little tricky, but it is worth it. It is fun, and I'm having an absolute blast. I'll see you guys in the live stream, all right? Peace, homies.

Tips for Farming Tier 17 Maps in Path of Exile

Farming T7 maps is a great way to get eight mod maps for better loot and more pack size.

Using Milky's Atlas tree and picking up shrine nodes can make running the maps a lot easier.

Running triple Elemental Resistance flasks can boost your maximum resistance to 90, providing better survivability, especially for tough bosses.

Using the Ambush strategy on Jungle Valley maps in Path of Exile's T17, focusing on maximizing map mods and using shrines for easier boss fights.

The strategy involves using specific Scarabs, such as Cartography Scarab of the Multitude, Cartography Scarab with corruption, and Cartography Scarab of Escalation.

Additionally, incorporating Maximum Elemental resistance flasks can make T7 map farming easier, especially when rolled well and used with shrines.

Efficient Farming Strategy in Jungle Valley Map

Running through the map to kill influence monsters and prioritize greater or grand eldritch altars.

Ignoring certain altar mods, focusing on quantity, and avoiding specific box mods.

Jungle Valley is preferred for its altar mods and lack of map boss modifiers.

Yielding high returns in currency, divination cards, and overall profitability, especially when running eight mods.

Strategies for Efficient Farming in Path of Exile

Players can maximize their strong box map chances by focusing on specific strategies and taking advantage of Ambush scarabs to increase the loot and spawn more monsters.

Investing in these scarabs may have a small entry cost but can lead to a more profitable farm.

To improve defense in the game, players should focus on getting good armor bases and carefully crafting their gear to boost their damage.

It's important to focus on chaos resistance to avoid damage and degeneration.

Prioritize shock avoidance and life regeneration for better defense, and consider upgrading armor bases for higher physical damage reduction.

Swapping to Echoes can significantly boost damage and provide extra uses for war cries, while also emphasizing the need for enduring cry during intense moments.

Managing Endurance Charges and Survival in Path of Exile

Endurance charges and charge duration help maintain survivability during mapping, allowing for the use of enduring cry at the start of the map to stay topped off.

Pressing enduring cry while waiting for bosses can reset endurance charges, while the use of auto-exert can eliminate the need to constantly press war cries.

Investing in armor-boosting jewels and prioritizing rare gear upgrades before obtaining Echo is crucial for managing the high damage taken.

Prioritizing flask management, curse reduction, and focusing on improving recovery can further enhance the build's survivability, with the potential addition of overleech for a more comfortable gameplay experience.

Maximizing Life Leech and Resistance in POE

Maximizing life leech through nodes like Mastery and Total Recovery is crucial for sustaining hits, especially for Berserker and Jug characters.

Increasing the maximum life leech percentage can significantly improve survivability, especially when combined with life regeneration.

Balancing resistance is achievable through skill tree specialization and the use of flasks, allowing for a comfortable experience even in high-level encounters.

Path of Exile: Changes for Efficient Spike Popping

Swapping Earth Shatter for a Battle Mage Cry and General's Cry for faster spike popping.

Adjusting skills for different map tiers, manually casting Seismic Cry for extra armor, and self-casting vulnerability in T7 maps.

Planning to get Vermillion Rings and grind gear for a more endgame Slammer build as a second character.

Sharing a simple method for crafting a high DPS axe and explaining the choice of a high attack speed weapon for better map clear.
