Path of Exile 3.25: Efficient T16 Mapping Strategy for Currency Gain, Week 1.

A tier 16 farming strategy was showcased, yielding high currency returns, challenging the perception of needing costly methods for profit.

### Efficient Tier 16 Map Farming Strategy in Path of Exile's Expedition League
* 🗺️  The strategy involves running tier 16 maps with **minimal investment**, focusing on the **Legion, Expedition, and Beyond league mechanics**.
* 💰  The total investment per map is around **4.35 Divine orbs and 6 Chaos orbs**, with no additional expensive items required.
* 📊  After 100 maps, the results included **6 Divine orbs**, **7 Exalted orbs**, and various other valuable currency drops.
* 📈  The net profit per map was calculated at **86 Divine orbs**, with a normalized profit of about **7 Divine orbs per hour**.
* 🎯  The strategy is suitable for both early league and later stages, offering a **consistent and reliable way to accumulate currency**.
* 🏆  The video creator emphasizes that this method can lead to acquiring a **Headhunter within about 200 maps**, making it a **viable long-term farming strategy**.
* 🧭  The build used in this strategy is an **Elemental Hit Deadeye**, optimized for **Legion, Expedition, and Beyond content**.
* ❓  The unexpected drop of "**Double H Cor's Lock**" during the farming session remains a mystery, adding an element of **surprise** to the results.

God delir lagging me what in the world double he cor's lock how did that drop how did that drop I have no altars two times hore's lock how could that drop how does that even drop what would make that drop what make I mean even one of them is crazy what's up guys this new here we go got our first farming video of 3.25 and it's kind of a strange league isn't it with loot coming from weird places in the new league mechanic and but juicing seeming to be very expensive in terms of cost and if you missed the boat no pun intended on you know like day one Legion stuff maybe you can't catch up I don't know but anyway I've been doing a lot of this farm right here in front of you which is a legion Expedition Beyond alter farm and I totally missed the honeymoon phase on this I was not farming this on day one I didn't really start farming this till the very end of day two early day three

and we are now in day five. So, with a lot of people out there thinking that t16 is bad that you got to be doing t17 to make any currency at all. That you got to be juicing your maps in somehow or you got to be doing something Niche like sanctum or you know know going crazy on the league mechanic. I don't know uh this is good old-fashioned tier 16 grinding guys uh basically no almost no investment per map just the K map device and um aling then Alin go Strat so it's going to be perception versus reality. We see what happens here. I will be tracking gold too but I'm not going to like really factor that in in any way and we'll factor in most anything drops except for Extraordinary outliers like a Divine altar or something like that but anyway here's the Strat it is a little bit of Nico chance Almost 100% chance to spawn Nico I'm missing these three nodes here which will help with some of the

movement speed to get going in the map. I got a guaranteed chance to get Expedition with a bomb and a little bit better than normal. I got a guaranteed chance to get Legion, with the easier clears. Okay, we got the full-blown alars. I sometimes do exarc alters for this, depending on the status of the eldri currency. It looks like eer of Worlds is a little better right now, and we got full-blown Beyond. And now my build is Elemental hit of the spectrum Warden, which is going really well, and Beyond is just spectacular for it. Here's an update that many of you might not be aware of. It looks like a change was made in respect to how the boss has spawned or how often it is. How many Beyond mobs you have to kill to spawn the boss. I've noticed the boss is not spawning in most of my maps. So I'm actually taking this point sort of force the boss spawn. They drop a lot of currency, and you still doesn't.

never seen well. I've almost never seen the boss spawn early in a map anymore, so that makes Beyond seemingly a little better. Actually, in fact, if anything, I'd like the boss to spawn more. Now, to remind you, if the boss spawns in a map, then the Beyond no longer continues spawning. So, best-case scenario, the Beyond boss spawns toward the very end of the map. I'll be running Singular Focus here, and we're ping-ponging between the maps Dune and Bog, and this is going to help even with just a very slight point in adjacent maps. With Singular Focus, the boss quite often drops an adjacent map, and so when I'm doing the Dunes map, quite often the Dune boss will drop Bog, and vice versa. Sometimes, you know, you get some maps, and I'm able to sustain maps this way, even without corrupting them, even without AOD corrupted. With this many favorite slots, and yeah, this build can handle some of these bosses like Shaper and stuff easier, so it's easier to unlock, and you don't

necessarily need all but one point unlocked. Okay, but you know you could sub out some Nico stuff, for example, if that were the case. But anyway, yeah, that's kind of this, the atlas there, and let's get into the Investments here. We're going to be using Wealthy Exile, like I've used before, very cheap, okay, very cheap. Looks like 4.35 divines per map, roughly six chaos per map. Basically, the cost of the map and an Al orb and a Val orb, that's basically it, guys. I'm going to be just be throwing everything in there, going to be a lot of bubble gum currency, going to be a lot of expedition log books, be some forgotten TOS or forbidden TOS, I guess they're called. We're going to get a lot of Stack decks, so maybe if I remember, we do a little gambling session at the end, lot of just raw currency, emblems, which aren't worth as much anymore. The ornate incubators are better than usual, they're

now dropping Divine orbs sometimes so incubators are really big. Uh just the Natural Rewards to come from Legion even though it seems like Legion is bad cuz the emblems are so cheap that's not the main source of currency for Legion. Here's everything in the dump tab so I mean there's not really any point to talk about scarabs or fragments or anything there's nothing to speak of right update on the build not really anything to update because I just came out a video yesterday however one thing I will say tattoos this is obviously good investment to do for those of you who are struggling with the movement speed issues get yourself the movement tattoos do be warned there are not very many on trade it seems that the market is very uh dry on those and they they were costing me 40 chos a pie to do that but I know those are going to hold over basically indefinitely I'll probably just use those Forever on this build so I figured it was a good investment to make prior to Head Hunter yes okay use the gear it's the

same as I've been using for a while. Let's get started with map number one. Now I am corrupting these Maps. Okay, I have a regex as well. I could show the regx right quick. It is right here that will be linked down below. It's sort of generic regex that does a quick pass on things like Monsters can't have a chance to avoid L one ailment, Elemental Fizz reflect can also brick the map for me some major things like that just t16 you can see I don't even have the fifth slot unlocked and yeah we're down here Legion let's do this zero gold to start. We'll go ahead and let you know what kind of gold we get so I I think this is going to come out pretty well. I think it's going to surprise some people. Again, this is a poverty League which means even just a modest amount of currency per hour is respectable. You guys got to remember this is the start of the league. Wow okay I instantly just made 65.

chaos there. So, first week of the league, you're typically not making some crazy amount of currency anyway because there's just not that much currency in the market, and there's clearly less C less raw currency in the market than usual. There's no magic find directly speaking. You can still use a glittering Scarab, cover the shrine, few few little things, but yeah, we've seen what's been going on with the group players. Obviously, there was the exploit around brothers forcing Brothers gifts to drop in a tier one map through the scrying thing. That's all been fixed. I guess I'm not aware of anything else that is going on right now. So, big bomb Expedition spawn a Wildwood, but I'm ignoring it because it's not worth it right now, at least not with minimum juice leveling some gems on the back end to corrupt. One good tip, uh, with the Nico thing, don't just get grab all of the packed with energy. Don't just grab all of them immediately because it's a timer, and once you grab it, it's gone.

forever so I I'll save one, and it it's honestly probably best to save the last one for looting. Is also another good tip, but you might want it for clearing the map. Uh-oh, got a Divine, okay, see Legion drops divines, look at that, not very often but happens. Confusing, actually not off boss Beyond does spawn a lot off of expedition ra. Divine again off of the incubator, I believe, yeah, it should be. I'm just knocking things out of stasis right now. God delir laging me, what in the world, double he cor is lock, how did that drop, how did that drop, I have no altars, two times heor lock, how could that drop, how does that even drop, what would make that drop, what would make, I mean even one of them is crazy duped, I was a that means I was like a quarter of the way away from duping a mirror drop there. I don't know, where did that come from, somebody please tell me where that comes from, I have no idea where that.

came from all right. Well, what are locks worth right now? Just want to put this out there, guys, that uh, to farm up current, it's a pretty good idea to invest in H Cor's locks. So you should probably get a few of those. Good investment, they go up in value. Oh, wow, okay, yeah, actually can't kill that Mom, that's interesting. I had no return prog 'cause I no mana and no regen, I guess. Yeah, so the downside from fledgling was actually getting me killed there, but only because I had no regen, so I couldn't shoot regular arrows to get the return P to kick in. That was bizarre, yeah, yeah. So fling downside, you know, could be lethal. I couldn't tell what the heck was going on, and then I finally put two and two together. Ah, tainted fusing, nice, nice. What the hell, I forgot to grab this. All right, now I can loot the map. Oh, wait, that come from Mystery Divine. I'm actually getting decent Divine drops here. I was hoping for like maybe three.

in total, for 100 Maps, we've already got three. At least it's not counting, uh, two H-cor loocks either. It's really a long go well. It's Al. It's Al valeno. So long as it didn't like brick the reg X. My reg X isn't that restrictive though. Ofine, assume that was another incubator. That's all I got to do, right? Just don't get hit. Oh, I got hit. Oh my God. Actually, standing in the middle is a good idea. Oh, still going. Come on, Warden, you got this. Oh God. Oh, so intense. Oh, I did it. Wow, blind fight actually did it. Wait, is that all the loot? That's it? Why are there two of me? What? Ah, another incubator. Warade incubator. Nice. Did you guys see that? You should clip that if you didn't see that. What I just did to that deli with the Beyond boss. He walked forward into an ice prison or on the edge of an ice prison against the wall and got

absolutely deleted by mass projectile AOE off. He basically prisoned himself like the ice prison here where it's aoeing itself. He cranks up your damage like insane. That was so funny. Yeah, I I I don't know to kill beond boss that fast. It's great for lightning strike T fusing nice. Yeah, so you know I just want you to know that when I set up the path of building and this probably confuses some people. I set up my path of building and there's three separate trees. That's me doing a whole bunch of extra work so you guys have a blueprint for where to go move forward. And that's because my my brand as a build Creator and a content creator tends to lean more towards the end end game not the early game. So that's me kind of appeasing my audience who's come to expect me to present endgame builds like progress and build Head Hunter variants. You know all that stuff that people kind of expect that of me and you know maybe I painted

myself into a corner a little bit in that way, but that's why. I, you know, that's where my compromise was. I was like, okay, I want to make some kind of new player-friendly build, but, you know, I know a lot of my veterans are going to be like, Well, what the heck is this? This is like Child's Play, right? Get this five div bow set up. What? Come on, tell me, tell me the real build. Where's the real build? I know that's going to be the response from a lot of the veterans in my community. So, to try and appeal to both, I've made three separate snapshots in time, which is something no, no other content creator does that. Well, they might make separate snapshots in time, but they will be for, like, you know, the end-endgame, League start setup, and the leveling setups, right? So, I had three separate leveling setups, three separate endgame setups, all snapshotted in time. You just did all that stuff to try to cover my bases for everyone. And I get it, you know, it confuses some people. See

they're like, well, you know, more information is not always good. It can be more confusing. But anyway, I'm just trying to explain where I'm coming from. And I'm just seeing a lot of people get a little bit tripped up with the whole crit transition. May probably should have made a separate video on YouTube prior League launch to really key that in. What I'm saying right nowo puzzle box nice. Yeah, guys, here we go. I'm done with 100 Maps. Almost got it done in one day. Took almost 5 minutes per map. So this was about an 8-hour farm in total. Very easy to set up. Again, no fragments whatsoever involved. Little over four divines invested for 100 Maps. So let's see the results. Unfortunately, I'm not sure why I can't see a proper number here on the left. A nice total breakdown. But I did go ahead and manually add in all this stuff. It can be a little strange, the calculations here. Some things maybe seem a tiny bit off, uh, but some things are also not included.

because they didn't meet the benchmark. But perhaps they sell anyway in like a mass dump sale. Overall, I think it's going to be fairly accurate here. Got everything all broken down. It's a lot of bubble gum stuff for sure, and maps. Indeed, maps are worth something, and they're especially worth something this league because um people want to run the trash maps with their minions to the league mechanic, right? So I think I am going to include maps of whatever they're worth right there. Now, obviously, uh, couple of heor locks is going to throw a big wrench into the calculations. We'll get to that in a second. But I'm very happy with six Divine orbs, and I dropped seven exalted orbs. So, I guess I underestimated how many of those corrupting my own maps resulted in seven Val temples. That was good. 268 stack decks is a really nice thing too. I think these are being undervalued by the way at 1.5c each. Uh, the Lesser eldrich currency, greater eldrich currency.

knew they'd be high six tainted orbs fusing. Obviously, a lot of um mercenary log books. There are a lot of emblems, some t17 maps, some Chums. You can see, I mean, this is just a typical breakdown. One random unique that's actually worth something, uh attainted Divine tear trop. It's extremely rare, but I mean, it's not really valuable now yet. And cards, cards are on here too. Now I didn't mention this at the front end, but I have not scri a map over to Dunes. So this is Baseline. You can do a lot better than this if you scri over a fortunate card or brother's gift or Apothecary card. Or it sounds like maybe Divine Beauty might be a really smart one on that. So I'm going to look more into that, but definitely, you know, if you can, it's going to be a lot better if you can scry a good divination card over. Anyway, I did break everything down and you can see, well, I mean, you can see it all broken down here, obviously. Most

of it was currency even without the 30 divines worth of heina cores. It's still very high on the list. Is raw currency total 90 divines gross 85.6 divines net for me personally counting the hinor. I made 86 divines per map net profit and a little over 10 divines per hour. Now of course uh for sanity sake I'm going to put in the normalized results because that was very unusual drop a little over half a Divine per map and almost seven divines per hour. Again that's about 8 hours to farm 100 Maps pretty reasonable. My build was more than capable of doing it the nonp version of my build for anybody who's following what I'm doing with this build this Elemental hit of the spectrum Warden. I was totally able to do this Farm even on like the 510 of budget of the no crit variant like the official build. I just chose not toh showcase anything until I was up to the crit version as far as like you know formal.

farming strats so pretty good numbers. You know, I heard M's group. They were only making like four or five div an hour split between them doing just raw drops. I remind you guys, this was not focused on Raw drops or magic finding at all. It was very much focused on leak-specific rewards, which is something that I like to push in the first week. I think it's a really smart way to farm maps for the uh Eldritch Altar rewards, sometimes Exarch Altar rewards. If you can't even do Legion yet, you should probably look into just basic zero investment Exarch Altar rewards. I've made videos on that in the past in past leagues. The Legion rewards, Legion's always good. Okay, I know some people say like Legion's not that good, but of course it's good. It's going to produce good results, especially on low investment. If you use scarabs and fragments, it might not pan out so well. I didn't look too deep into that. Sounds like the investment cost is oddly high for even

Simple like Legion investing stuff like Legion scarabs and sergeants and stuff like that. Uh, but yeah, anyway, that is it for the results on there. I'm going to take you back into the map, and we're going to do some gambling real quick. Uh, there were a few unusual results that are not being calculated, you know, as such in here. I got an almost perfect Rarity helmet. I have an actual perfect attack speed fracture hydr scale gauntlets, which is indeed worth a lot more than just some random amount. Uh, perfect Dex fracture bone ring, which is apparently worth a bit, and we have, you know, a couple things to say for the gambling portion. So, these were a few like outlier drops that, you know, they just happened, and I figured I'd put them to the side. They're going to be added value that wasn't tabulated at all. All right, gambling results. Let's see. I got to get all those tactics ready. That's pretty good, pretty good. Nice little one here. Nice one here. Nice one here. Let's see.

what these big ones are worth. Uh, we got almost one Divine there. Nurse is 1.6 and garish pow is 75 and some pretty good ones here too. Now my loot filter is kind of loose here so some of these cards really aren't worth anything and then there's a real trash at the end which I'll show you in a second here. Okay that stuff didn't even pass the test. 268 divination card. I definitely came out ahead for sure on that so we'll uh put those away. Gamb is going good so far. Let's see a couple more things to do really just these two things. Let's see what I got here. Dark packed, dark packed, uh, nope. Boom baited breath not replica. Okay I don't think it's worth anything. Well all in all, pretty good. Okay guys here we go final thoughts. Uh, you might be wondering why I did this Farm, uh, why I'm doing this video the way I'm doing it. It just come to my attention a lot of people are feeling the I, I don't know, the seasonal

League start blues around making currency um everyone's trying to go out and find the newest, greatest, biggest thing. I think last League was a bit damaging to our morale in that sense. It seemed like you always needed to stay on top of things to see the biggest farms, whereas a lot of just traditional farms that are always good remain good and are always just steadfast methods of farming that will always get your currency. And it looks like if my calculations are correct, even with formalized results, somewhere around 200 maps of this will give me from zero to a headhunter. Okay, if I just farm 200 maps, I mean how hard is that really to farm 200 maps? Yeah, it takes a little while, but it's nothing crazy to do. So if you're someone who's like never had a headhunter or you know it takes you ages to get a headhunter and you try to imagine 200 maps 'cause you know the perception is maybe it's just really bad t16 farming and t17 might prove to be bigger results.

than this, but if you just stick to it and grind it through, yeah, the reality is you'll get a headhunter for sure. And this is what I did. I mean, I'm basically showing you guys what I did to get a headhunter. I mean, most of what I needed, I just got in this 100 map with a lucky drop, but I could have just farmed more maps. I mean, you can't possibly lose currency unless I was bricking Maps, which never happened. Every map, I'm just paying the AL orb and the B orb in the map, and yes, indeed, I was able to sustain Maps doing this pretty easily. A lot of these aren't dunes and stuff because they were like random map drops. So yeah, there was a t-16 farm. It was not xar alter Farm, but it was just a little bit better than that. And by the way, I just want to make you guys understand, like for next league, if you're one of those extreme Gamers who can get to this stage.

of the game in like one or two days. This would have been one of the absolute best ways to make currency if you could actually do it. Um an expedition Legion Beyond Farm on a 5 to 10 div budget character. Those of you who basically do Sleepless League starts would have been able to farm a head hunter so fast. It would have made your head spin. But that's not me, okay. And that's another part of the video is I'm showcasing this farm that would be extraordinarily good at farming Head Hunter ASAP by mapping Legion. But doing it after the honeymoon phase after all of that, you know, the great opportunity is now passed so to speak. Well, it doesn't matter because you're still making plenty of currency. And you know, first couple days of League, you're not going to be using fragments cause nobody's trading them anyway. I still didn't use any this time too. And so it's just so simple and easy. Yeah, you need some kind of character that can do

Legion, of course, but other than that, that's it guys. So let me know what you think in the comments below. I hope you enjoyed the video. And where the heck did that Double H cor lck come from anyway? I still don't know. I still don't know. That's it for the video. Thank you. I'll see you in the next one.
