Hey everybody, Ron right here, and in this league, normal Maven holds one of the most expensive rewards in the current game: awakened multi-strike that costs 190 divines, and awakened spell echo, which costs about 50. So today, I decided to test 100 mavens in a row to see how profitable it is. Um, is it great or bad? Since it's a normal version, the fight should be pretty easy, but let's see how long memory games will make it. In this video, I will showcase a detailed breakdown of loot received and time spent, together with my thoughts and rating using timestamps as usual for particular topics. And let me know in the comments if there's mechanics that you want me to test. So to enter the fight, we'll need one Maven re that is created from 10 cent splinters to fight 100 m. I bought about 100 Maven reads. The average price of one Maven re is about 0.5 divines, which usually you can get like two ananas per one Divine. I paid about 50 divines for 100 entrances here, so

let's keep that cost in mind when we will check profitability. So, what normal Maven can even draw? The most common item is legacy of Fury, and that's just the boots, and they're not that popular. However, for some belts, that could be useful. We also have a 16% chance for all belts, such as graving secret, anguish, and elicious Delight. We also will have about a 6% chance for double game anger geese, which is a pretty nice body armor, and less than a 1% chance for E Forge. So, we will see if he will drop at least one. On top of that, they're also receiving orb of conflict with about a 35% chance approximately, and a 25% chance for any random awaken your support gem based on the whole set of support gems. Chance to drop a vacant multi-strike support should be between 0.2 to 0.5. So, well, they have some chances for it, but I generally don't expect it. Let's see how it will go. Talking about the timer one fight.

with memory games, even if you can skip one, so do only two memory games will take about a little less than 3 minutes, so something between two and a half and three. So, 100 runs took me about 5 hours to complete, which is a pretty significant time investment considering the fight is a little dragging at some moments. Let's go and see how much loot I dropped in the process. So, the first and the most common loot that we received is Legacy of Fury Vum Scale Boots. I dropped about 38 of them, and those boots are very cheap, so each cost about 5 KES. There's not a single perfect one that could have a little better price, so the best that I received is like 48% increased effect of Scorch. Generally, considering the drop like 38, it can give us about 190 K or roughly one Divine, so we can just keep it in mind for like one Divine per all the boots or just corrupt them. So, talking about our loose during our run, we received about 15 Alishious Delight.

belts, and on average, they cost about 11k of approximately non-corrupted version, so 165k per all alicious Delights. We also received about 18 graving secret belts; those cost about 14 kelas, so 250 or something like that on average. Most of them receive like pretty all right RS around 50 lightning resistance. We also received 24 ER anguish close B; those are the most expensive ones. I think it's been pretty lucky considering the chances are pretty much the same. So, 2 24 anguish AR sish will cost about 40k per each and around 950, 960 ksas per all of them. So, with all combinations of ksas, we received about eight divines just on the belts, which is not a bad option. It's also possible to corrupt them, and if you get lucky, you will receive more profit. But right now, I will just count them like eight divines approximately, even without the corruption. So, the next part of the loot is doble ganger. Guys, I received only

five of those which is not that good, and most of them are with not a perfect amount of stats, so less physical and C damage taken is not perfect that way. They cost 20 K per rolled one, so three of them cost nothing, and one of them rolled perfect, which is pretty lucky, but it still cost about two divines. And one of them rolled around 39%, which cost one more Divine. So, in general, we receive like three and a half divines on double Kar, which I consider a pretty lucky result, to be honest. So, right now, let's talk about the main part of our farming here, and it's pretty much awaken jumps. So, generally, I receive three awaken vicious projectiles, or like 15 KES, and a little set for 15 K here too. So, awaken added lightning damage, awaken control destruction, awaken added chaos, and awaken Co penetration. I also received about three awaken brutality supports. All of them cost about, I would say, 50 KES. So, overall, it should cost about one Divine per all of them. I can add that cold

damage is very common to drop as well, and I dropped three of those. They cost about 25, so nothing really big. Awaken light penetration dropped as well. It cost about 52, so 100 more. And awaken minion damage support, which cost about 30 as well. Awaken M Splash is not that popular, so only 15 CES. And awaken castal channeling of 30. So all of that part is pretty much cost Kus in general. I would say it's about three divines approximately if I will sell all of them. Moving forward, awaken Swift Affliction right now cost 60 KES, which is not bad. But awaken void manipulation cost around one Divine, which is very good. It mve us to four divines in total. Awaken chain support cost about one Divine as well, so that's about five divine in general. I also received awaking increased area of effect for four divides, so in general, we will have about 10 divines in awaken gems right here. And the last part, I dropped awaken multi-strike support, even considering the low chances it dropped.

around 48 run, so I think it's a very lucky drop. Um, I wouldn't expect it, to be honest, but it cost about 1,180, 190 Ys, and that's a huge drop, which pretty much saves the strategy. However, I will calculate profitability both with awaken multi-strike and without awaken multi-strike. So, even if I got lucky, I want to showcase how profitable the strategy would be without that big drop. So, from the rest of awaken gems, we received about 10 divines in total. Moving forward, I also dropped about 31 orb of conflict, which will lead us to about 21 Divine in profit based on orb of conflict. Uh, because it's dropping very often from Aen, I think it's the most saving part because it gives us back almost half of the general price. So, 21 Divine out of 50 divines that we paid for entrances. I think orb of conflict is a pretty much essential part here to feel a little better. And the last part is pretty much E for. So, as you probably can notice, not a

single Eco Forge drop during my runs. I think with such amount of chance that we have right now, you will need at least 200 or maybe even 300 runs to drop e Forge like approximately consistently, and I honestly wouldn't expect it in many many cases based on what we currently can see. So talking about loot summary for everything we received about one divine from boots, which is pretty nice, and about eight divines per Bel, which is very nice as well. We can also corrupt them and maybe receive like one or two more, but that's pretty much it. About 10 divines in general from basic gems without awaken multi-strike and 21 Divine from currency. We also received about three DS from body armors, mostly double gangers, and overall there is about 43 divines after 5 hours of farming. So I would say that I lost about seven divines based on that calculation, and I also lost five hours of farming too. So on average, I've been losing almost one Divine per hour, even a little more than that, and I would say that such

farming is definitely not working if you're not hitting a lucky drop, and the chance for it is not that big. So, if you will count in a Vacon multi-strike, which costs 180 or 190 divines, it will save the day. But without it, I received 43 divines on average, and I spent 50 and 5 hours of my time. So, it's definitely not the best way of farming right now. Talking about greater bait scale, I would move MAV much closer to the bait. And if you will not hit that big drop, such as Awaken M strike or anything else, you're probably going to lose currency, and it's definitely a very risky game because the chance for a Ving multi-strike is not that high. So, right now, I can't recommend such farming to anybody because losing divines for a huge period of time is definitely not what feels good. Thank you very much for watching, everybody. That's been my summary of 100 Maven runs, and I hope you enjoyed the video. Feel free to subscribe for more.

Testing the Profitability of 100 Normal Maven Fights

Ron is testing 100 normal Maven fights in a row to evaluate their profitability, with the most expensive rewards being the awakened multi-strike and awakened spell echo.

He spent about 50 divines on 100 Maven entrances, with the common loot drops including Legacy of Fury boots, various belts, and a chance for the coveted E Forge.

The fights also offer Orb of Conflict and random awakened support gems, with a small chance for the multi-strike support gem.

Completing 100 runs of memory games took about 5 hours, with common loot including 38 pairs of Legacy of Fury Vum Scale Boots, each worth 5 KES.

The run also yielded 15 Alishious Delight belts, 18 Graving Secret belts, and 24 ER Anguish close B, with the total value from the belts amounting to approximately eight divines.

The farming process involved rolling five items, with one perfect roll and a total cost of three and a half divines.

Awakened gems were the main focus, with various supports dropping and totaling around ten divines.

The lucky drop of awakened multi-strike support added to the overall success of the farming run.

Analyzing the Luck and Profitability of a Farming Strategy

A lucky drop of 48 runes, worth around 1,180-1,190 Ys, significantly impacted the farming strategy's profitability.

The strategy yielded a total of 10 divines from awaken gems and 21 divines from the frequent drop of orb of conflict.

After 5 hours of farming, the overall profit was 43 divines, resulting in a loss of 7 divines and 5 hours of effort.

The Challenges of Farming in the Current Meta

Farming is not effective without a lucky drop, and the chances are low.

The Vacon multi-strike, costing 180-190 divines, can make a difference, but without it, the average return is only 43 divines after significant time investment.

The risky nature of farming, combined with the low chance of a multi-strike, makes it a less favorable option right now.
