welcome back to season 2, episode three of Basor Cringe. And I have a new build that we're going to be running from now for a while. I don't know. It's Lightning Strike. It's pretty cool, and I'm going to try Expedition on it for the first time. Fully Juiced Expedition, actually. We're getting 100% on the tree, and we're adding Magic P size to Juice It Up. Two Rune findings, one Verum pattern for even bigger, and we're getting two extra suffixes and prefixes. So they're going to be incredibly juicy and tanky and Rippy. But hopefully this build can handle most of it. And even if it can't, it's like 10 C a map or 12 C or something. Uh, let's do the math quick. So I'm four chiseling and then rolling to 80 plus Quant. And then this is three C, five, 7, 8 N. I'll put Domination on. So 12. And then like 5 C on the map Rolling because chisel and like

rolling two or three times. So 17 C per map. So even if you break a map, it's minus 17 C. Go again. Still kind of low investment, but requires a stronger build. I don't think my tornado shot guy could do this. My tornado shot guy could do without this. I've done a few Expeditions just to test without this, and it's fine. Die a few times, but you can do it. But this is, this makes it gigar riy and impossible. I'm taking the block Mastery. If you're an Attack Base build, you basically need this. Monsters cannot block your attacks for the block Expeditions. And then, yeah, I'll be putting on shrines. I have a little bit of Nico on the tree, but not much. Just the pathing up here and then this. So I'm going to have like 50% niik chance. I took every map node. I took every increased effect of mods. I took the Quant. I took this carab wheel. And then Expedition tuen and denig big bomba.

will'll do the one big explosion, and then we're getting 100% Expedition on three so we don't have to use the Expedition Scarab, and we can add the magic P size. There should be a lot of magic monsters in there. We'll see as always, check the loot, blah blah blah, you know the deal. I'll track the gold too, write it down because my town is running out of gold, so I'm going to have to dump, but uh, I'll keep track of how much gold I'm farming. Supposed to be pretty good for gold too. The chests also drop gold, and there's a bunch of rare mobs and the magic mobs. Would you say the map effect NOS are always mandatory, uh, not for loot tile strats, but generally I would always take them, yeah, unless I'm only going for like literal like chest like Legion Rewards or blight chests, and even then for blight, like for the pump explosion, it's good, so yeah, I would pretty much always take the map effect notes. I have basically not done.

any Expedition this league so except for some testings so I have nothing here, and I don't have this ticked either, so everything will go in here. We're going to engage with Tujan at the end. We're going to gamble, but I think we'll do like last time. We're going to count the profits as if we sold the raw currencies, and then we're actually going to use the Tujan one to see how much money we can get from haggling. Let's get this started. We'll put on Blue alters for Quant whenever we can. Click them we will and good luck have fun. Let's form some stuff. So I should clear for altars, but now we got this good Shrine. Maybe I should take advantage of that. So the only damage type I can't do is lightning immune. So they can be immune to like literally everything else as long as they're not lightning immune, we're good. Oh God, I think I need a filter update. Oh, or is this just this much stuff dropping bro, I can't.

see no no man no what is this. Okay, I don't know about this one guys, that's normal. Okay, okay, let me kill the boss. Jesus Christ, okay, I really have to be able this now. I can't. What is this? 50 of these. Okay guys, I'll hear Quest complete. What quest? I got 77 Astra G in one Expedition. What God. Okay, placing it in the middle, not lightning IM. We are lucky. Let's go. Jesus, what is happening on my screen? Holy [__]. Okay, that's pretty good. If I had some cool downs here, I could probably kill them. Wow, dude. It's just Lee 'cause I'm like out of Mana. Holy [__]. How do I survive? [Music] This build is crazy. That I survived all of that for like 20 seconds. Ambush scab of containment Monies. What? Who's doing that? It's two little rats but they cannot be killed. What are these rats? What is that? It's just constant bro broking my

Tempest Shield untargetable rats. Okay, I, I don't know man, what's happening. It's my new friends. Uh, here. Oh, that's great. Monsters are immune to cold, fire, lightning, chaos, and physical damage. That's very cool. What? Why did I blow that up? Why did I click that? Guys, next map, hopefully we don't have invisible rats attacking us. A Divine from a chest. Loot tiles are so good. That's our first Divine in this run. Two Divines. What? Did you see that huge drop? Or are they lightning immune? Or what? Did it go off screen? Wait, they are lightning immune, but I can't tell. That's so troll. I breaked one because, uh, there are so many mods that I couldn't tell that it's lightning immune. Apparently it's lightning immune. Um, okay. So, uh, so we break this one, go next. Okay, let me test. Thing that leech is crazy. Mana donut. Holy [__] like this. This doesn't look impressive until you read how much

[ __ ] there is on these mods. Look at this. They cannot be leashed from they pen. 30 Fire Res pen. 15 lightning res. Chance to freeze. Crit against you are always lucky. Always freeze. They have Max res. They're immune to curses. Their hits cannot be evaded. They have impale effect. More life. You can't crit them fees extra chaos. 100% fees extra chaos. Their hits remove 20% es every time they hit you. And they have 30 oras. And that's just on the expedition that fits on the screen. And then we have map mods and altars. I actually didn't click alars this map. But Jesus Christ. You just die if you don't stop. Yeah, well, I know it for a fact that they are fire immune cuz I'm staring at it. I hope they're not lightning immune. Ha, no, it's actually three different fire immune. What the [ __ ] bro. Oh my God. The loot. Okay, someone should do this. Someone should really do this. Goodbye. Not me. Someone.

else okay PD is this going to affect us puzzle box nice let's see how PDR alter is negative PDR see how it feels Fortress map 35 exotic coinage from that one holy [ __ ] that's a lot four Siege I paid for six for dos yeah exactly listen I lived that life for like a couple of days with my other character Divine some more raw divines this time around than last time only got one last time I think we got three so far or four nameless here hello watch this Mage blood tabula every time actually every time is a tabula I met the SE four times every single time the best item was a tabula no not the chance oh my God hello what is happening uh they're they're dead that's what's happening GG guys we're done whoa stop we are done with the 50 Expedition maps and this is what we got and now I sort and we prise let's go so I looted gems because gcps are 1.5c

each and so I set up my filter to show gems above 14 quality. So I can vender three of them into one GCP. So then one gem looting is like half a chaos, basically. So we do this and then generate a bunch of GCPs. Not too bad, got like 65 GCPs. Total. I have Dunes favorited and then on the last 20 Maps I favorited uh Tropical Islands. So I'm taking out the favorites first. So we got 49 of our favorite maps and the rest is bonus. So we got 101 Maps over sustained. And we also got four, five, six 16 t7s, which is the most we've ever gotten. Actually, we are up 505c from the t16 maps. And then 16 so 1,600 chaos for the t7s. Nice. There is a couple of other Maps like wakaa. I think these are probably back down to 10c or maybe even 5c. Let's just call it 5c. Then we got a poor Joy 8C an underground

C 7c lalun 6C [__] they're cheaper than usual, and then we got shaper Maps eight, Elder Maps 10, conquer map 15c, Expedition roll currency. We got 470 Astra gall, 29 baral Medallion, 119 scrap metal, and 282 exotic coinage. That's pretty good. We got four Deli orbs, and we got a lot of log books. So how do we sort these log books? I think we look at two gen Danny G, and then everything else is kind of whatever. It's probably only the tujan and the Deni that's worth running. 46 log books total, three tabas from three different Sears. Actually, I'm pretty sure we got a CB jeel here, scouting reports or whatever. Maybe the influenced ones are okay, but that's, uh, that's all we got. I don't know if wealthy Exar can sort these, so we'll do on 20c for these Toms, and this is a tier 2 Chaos fracture on a good base, on a really good base.

think that's a tier one base Chimera scale gauntlets. This is two div apparently. Okay, apparently I undervalued the toms a little bit. I'll just, I'll just do four to one div. It's fine. So pricing log books, we'll do Knights of the Sun and black scythe both at 30C each. You can do more if you have big bulk, which I actually do. Knights of the sun can go up to four, and black one can go like 35, but we'll just be conservative here and price them as 30 each. That's 35 of them. 35 * 30 plus 150 chaos in log books. And then we have some other extra log books. I think they're like 10c each. Just random. Some people like five to one them or something. Some of them are corrupted. Some of them are [__]. Let's say 10c each. 10 of them. 100 see be done with the log box. And I think it's time to actually maybe this 12 suppress fencer Helm to div.

that's pretty good. Let's ID our one Dragon Fang replica. It's bone shatter. Okay, it's dead. So we're going to let wealthy XL price this tab for us, and then we're going to roll some two-gen first. Actually, the deception contracts. That's it. Okay, we spent 850c on this project, so we are in 3,200 chaos profit right now, plus what's in here, here, and here. So let's see what that is. It's 30 divines. Wow. What? Okay. S and a half div exotic coins, four raw div, two divin Scarab of calcification, Essence Scarab, Ambush Scarab of containment, chaos 87 scene baral Medallion. Wow. Okay. How much is 30 divines? It's 4,500 chaos. So we made 7,773 chaos, which is 51 divines over the course of 50 Maps. So that is one Divine per map. It took 26 minutes to run 10 of them, so it took 130 minutes to run.

the whole thing if you actually just map, and you don't, you know, do streamer things or mess around with your boats and stuff. So, it took a little over 2 hours, 2 hours, 2.16 hours, 51.82 divines over 2.16 hours. It's 24 div per hour. That's without rolling, Tu J, okay. Expedition is still Giga ass steer, but you need a strong character for it. You can't do this Scarab with a character. This Scarab is ridiculous. I don't even have one to show, but it's the one that gives it extra prefixes and suffixes. Holy, there is some crazy tanky and Rippy Expeditions you can build, but that is, that is a lot of money. Let's say you go a little slower, you know, and you mess around with your boats and stuff. You're still making 20 D an hour doing Expedition on t16s. Cheap scarabs, 17c per map, if you Breck.

it go again like eventually you'll get a two gen that will pay for 10 maps, and you get some log books. So this is big bomba, right? You don't have to read and and place 17 explosives. You just put it down, click the thing, see if your build can do the damage that they're not immune to, and then you blow it up, go go. Okay, so now what we're going to do is we're going to start another timer and then burn our exotic coinages and see how much we make from that and try to average it and uh make sense of this number together. 280 exotic coins. Uh, I don't know about this guys, so we'll start a fresh timer and put everything that we earn into a separate tab that we will then wealthy. Exile screaming essence of misery. Mhm. Oh Divine, nice. We already got a Divine. GG. How much you spend on the maps? 77c each. Oh look, another Divine guys. Tuen is my best friend. Still, he is still my best friend.

Jesus, okay, that's a little bit on the lucky side. Probably five Scourers and Mo on five C and move on. Actually, 10 fusings, five Ball Sure, 10 Scour, 2C next, a Barrent Fossil. That's cheap, that is way too cheap. Get a map for the Kings Marchers next. 2C, 2C, five regrets, map, move on, two regret, two GCP, nice Divine. Okay, we got it, third Divine. Oh, another one seems reasonable for divines. Dude, Tujan is my best friend. I told you guys, he and I go way back, all the way back to Expedition where I did so many Tuj log books. Okay, last draw. Actually, there's some more stuff here, and that's it. We are done with Tuen. Took 53 minutes, call it an hour, I guess. We were pretty fast at it. Well, we got 43 maps from Tuen. Some of these are like lower tiers, but I'm going to have my mappers run these. Obviously, I'll value these at 4C each.

Let's calculate our two-gen profits. So, 40c, 44c, 176c. You also got some other like good maps, but let's put in the chaos. Doesn't even fit. Oh, it does. Okay. So, we got this and this from two-gen. We got four divines and four exalts, some te deck, some chaos, some scarabs, fusing, scour, ALK, GCP, bubbles. How much is it exactly? So, second calculation begins now on the second calculator, the friend of the first calculator. So, we made 51.82 div, but he's gay. 7.5 of that was two-gen, and we just spent that. So now we only made 44.32 div plus what's in these tabs and the maps. And then we also spent an extra hour. So, instead of 2.16 hours, it's going to be 3.16 hours. How much is in these tabs? Two-gen, one and two, and two-gen made a 16 div from 7.5 in 1 hour. God damn. Plus 176c. So, 16 div time

150 plus 2,400 C divided by 150 then made us uh 17.7 Dev out of 7.5 Dev so our total goes up to 61.5 Dev in 36 hours, which is 19.4 div per hour. Wait, so we lost, we lost some diff per hour running them was better. We lost money with, we didn't lose money with two gen but we lost diff per hour with two genen huh. I think last League that was different. Okay, so if you don't want to do the two gen haggling, it is more money to just sell the coins and let other people do it and then just map more interesting. I mean we got, you know, you get a lot of t17 drops of course and then other stuff but okay, so the final number is 19.45 dip per hour, uh, including tuen hling and it was 25 or 24 th per hour without toen hling. Oh, the gold, okay, we'll add that to the yes, hang on post production guys, uh, gold.

okay guys third calculator 18,552. We made 772k gold during this 50 Maps. Sometimes I didn't full clear, but I kind of do for shrines and altars and boss skill for sure. So I would say I cleared about 80% of the maps. And of course, the Expedition always, so it's another 800k gold in the bank that you can spend on, you know, rolling NPCs, mapping, shipping, all that good stuff that comes along with this league. Of course, all this money never includes what you could be doing with your town 'cause that's time that you spend not mapping, but on the downtime, you can always send out some shippers, send out some mappers with your extra maps that you wouldn't run yourself. So that can always supplement your income. But uh, that's how much gold we made. So Expedition is still an incredible Strat. It requires a stronger character, of course, but if you can do it, then it is insane money still in t6s. So I hope you enjoyed this episode. See you in the next one. Bye.
