welcome back guys to the next episode of based or cringe bait or great. Is it good Atlas Strat testing stuff? We're doing a classic one: Harbinger. Everyone has probably done this by now, but I did it last league as well, and they changed the scarabs. No more full mirrors, full fractured shard stuff. We're just farming a lot of shards on eight mod Beach maps. I picked Beach 'cause it's a nice layout. I want to be out in the open, sailing the blue seas, farming the blue boys. We're going to have 12.3 harbingers in every map. I tested one with the Obelisk Scarab, and it spawns these extra obelisks that you kill, and they drop shards. It's better value to run this because the Scarab is just one C, whereas a Harbinger Scarab is four, five, six, whatever. However, the loot gets spread out, and I don't want to run around and pick up like two chaos shards at a time, you know, in every Harbinger. So, I'd rather just all drop at

the end and then we do the scroll wheel, you know, pick up in the middle. So I'm going with this selection of scarabs. We'll put Harbinger on the map device. Also, of course, these maps are all eight mod with 40 plus pack size. Pack size is the only way to scale Harbinger loot. Quant doesn't matter, rarity doesn't matter. So I think there's like four maps here that are just like 39 or 38, but everything else is 40 plus. Atlas tree, all Harbinger, all map, and a bunch of Scarab stuff. I'm going with red altars this time 'cause I don't want to read. I don't want to fish for divine altars. And there is one divine altar that, or one blue altar that breaks my build. I think I can click every red, so it's fine. Quant doesn't really matter. I just got Harbinger map Scarab, that's it. We are blocking breach, abyss, expedition, and legion. So these scabs and league mechanics cannot

spawn or drop, and then we are increasing the chance of ambushed scarabs, Harbinger scarabs, carto scarabs, and Essence scarabs. These are currently the best scarabs. If you don't want to do the Scarab stuff, you just unspe all this. You can add beyond for like 21 points, 100% Beyond. It's okay, but the tainted currency prices are pretty bad, so I don't think it's great value. But if you don't want to do scarab stuff, then you just add Beyond. It's fine. As always, separate the loot, usual stuff, empty tabs. I will track the gold as well this league, as usual, and uh, let's get started. There's a reflecting Mist here. [Music] That eight fracturing shards. That's a good start, guys. Map number two. That's nice. It's like two and a half Dev. Why is the time not reset? Uh, generally, I run a couple to find out like if my filter is okay, and uh, you know, it's not 100% mapping time.

Sometimes I do more chatting, some gum, Buzz, or Kings Mar, or whatever, and then I time 10 Maps after Divine orb. Only serious farming. This is a job, guys. Divine per hour is the only metric that matters. You cannot have fun in this game. You can only Farm currency per hour, and if you're not farming enough currency per hour, you should feel like [ __ ]. That's what some people think. Don't think like that, guys. But if your fun comes from playing efficiently, nothing wrong with that. Also, nothing wrong with another eight fracturing shards on map number three. No, no, no, no. Okay, okay, guys. I'm uh, I'm hiring a Trader. It's official. Oh wait, you get banned for even saying this [ __ ]. Okay, okay. I'm not hiring it stra there, guys. Just kidding. I was just joking. But I am okay. It's been, it's been year. Wait, where's my map? My map, bro. It's gone. The trailer saw them Relic. [Music]

key woo woo. I was about to swap to Harvey today. Do it. This video is not going to be out. I don't think I will meaningfully impact uh harby prices. It's such a common Strat. You just [ __ ] put in the scarabs. Maybe if I get really lucky with fracture orbs and uh when the video comes out like maybe for a few hours there will be some impact but I I don't think like streaming this will impact them at all. All right watch this single click. See I'm not holding anything. See this is vum. Just going to walk away from it and then click no shot. Try it man. Just try it and then you get a mage blood. Just kidding guys. Let me demonstrate something that will reduce the number of uh YouTube comments which means I shouldn't really do this but I will anyway. Okay here is two piles. Some people say probably once per day or so. Why don't you turn off Loot and then just click the pile to loot faster. That is in fact not faster. What I do is I

stand at the pile and then I scroll my mouse wheel to click and then keep triggering loot on and off so the things refresh. So if you do the recommended method, there is a cap at the space at which you can loot. So I'm going to start scrolling my mouse as fast as I can, and you will hear the ticks of me looting, uh, and that's as fast as you will ever be able to loot with that method. You see that it doesn't speed up, whereas what I do is faster. This is more apparent when the loot is all in one nice neat pile, and it's just a straight line. I can't really reproduce that by dropping items, but you could hear how much faster the clicks are. So if you think that it's faster to loot that way, it's not. It is more annoying to do this, but I'm used to it. That's how I do it. If you just want to loot a loot pile, you can turn off the loot and do the do.

that method and then just mouse over like the beams and just kind of loot on the same spot. But uh, yeah, it is not faster. Good or based or cringe is in the eye of the beholder as always. If you don't like reading Expedition mods or you don't like waiting for harbingers to die or you don't like doing X, Y, and Z, then that's not a good Atlas strategy for you, even if it makes 30 div an hour, right? If you're not enjoying the gameplay loop, the Atlas strategy, find another one. I don't like chasing round abysses, so it's incredibly unlikely that I will test an abyss strat. An Abyss can be good, can be good for X. Maybe you find some insane five-six mod corrupted Abyssal Jewels. It can be good. Beast Cherry can be incredibly good, but I don't want to bother up with bottling up my beasts, selling them in bulk, or bottling up my Beast to do a test even.

In the first place, CU right now. I already have some random beasts, and I would have to clean my entire beast jury to see what we got. If I did a 50 map test, so I'm probably not going to do those things, but it doesn't mean that the Strat is bad or whatever. It's just like personal preference. There's like a million ways to farm in this game, and we'll test a lot of them, but not every single one. And a good Atlas stat for someone might be a terrible Atlas stat for someone else. Maybe you don't like rolling boxes. It's pretty tedious, but the payoff at the end can be insane. But it can also be [ __ ] especially if your filter is bad like mine was. So the car threat is definitely not for everyone, but some people look at it and they're like, Oh [ __ ] I could get four apothecaries. I could get four House of mirrors just like that with some juicy Maps. If I run this enough for four doctors, sign me up, you.

know, and someone else looks at it, and they're like, [__] rolling boxes, man, the CBA, next, next trap, and that's okay, there's a little something for everyone. Two fracturing shards, okay, I haven't seen uh any in a while, two is kind of sad, but I mean, it's something. What has been the most fun Strat so far for you overall? Probably just Shrine all can go and forming t7 maps in like dunes or whatever, 'cause it's like just fast, shrines are fun. Oo yo, four fracturing shards, okay, there we go, our lock is back, and there, not much hassle. Yeah, you just, you just zoom, zoom, pick up some stuff, but then expedition was really good money, and there's some crazy Expeditions, that's also fun. The card Strat had like annoying elements, but I could have made it less annoying by fixing my filter and, you know, not turning in do [__] cards, and then the big dopamine explosion in the end were really fun. So like every Strat has like something, oh you like

this. Oh, you like this. That was really fun. Okay, Mist number [__] 37. Surely this is going to be the one that drops an itemized mist and not a dog [__] ring, right guys? It's so rare. Just vibing master and dialogue. Here we go [Music]. Beautiful. Check how many deaths you have. I'm on 217. Uh, I played this build during week one group play. Oh [__] four facturing shards. Nice. Uh, and I don't know how many deps I had then. Probably like 150 to 200. Oh, you have died 420 times. There you go, amus. Look at that mad bear go ham, buddy. You got this. No, I have block. Okay, guys, we finished 50 maps and we got this, this, and this. And we'll check what that is right now. Uh, let's take out some useless stuff as always and then we'll get into the pricing. We are back and we are uh, we are calculating. I took out some garbage as usual. I've been perpetually replacing uh

defiled Cathedrals here with other Maps CU. I want my mappers to run the filed Cathedral right now for fun. As always, I took out the low-tier Maps. These are all 16, except some elder or conqueror, which are not 16. So, this is how many Maps we found in 50 Maps. It's actually quite a lot of maps, if I do say so myself. That's it, Jesus. We found 208 maps in 50. Nice, it's 4 C each, 830c. And then we found some t7s, which these are good ones. Found 11 Abominations, which are um ADC singles. Let me look at uh bulk price here. Okay, let's go with 0.7. How much is 0.7? The it's 123. Okay, we'll go with 120 C each time. 11 plus 1, 2, 3 Z. All right, so that's how much we made on maps. And then there is some other stuff here. I'm pretty sure wealthy Exile can deal with this, but

let's just sort it a little bit so it looks nice. We'll take out the moons, nobody cares. The Ala memory of 5c, the random reflected ring that rolled terribly, got some blueprints, three of them not revealed, six deception contracts, a conquer map, a puzzle box, a shaper map, some orbs, another shaper map, another Elder map, pen of billions, garbage memory, simulacrum 25, 5% quality on a jeweled foil, it's onec, it's bad. Okay, now how much did we spend on the Strat? The scarabs are 5c each for the low one, is what I bought for maybe you have to pay six for giant bulk, and then regeny is 15 C, and War hordes is 14 C at the moment, maybe 15, 15 each, or maybe 16, 16 each, let's say. Okay, so that would be 16 + 16 + 15 was our Scarab, so 47c on scarabs, time 50 is 2,350. Uhoh, we're going negative, guys. We

are negative 120c okay. Then we also spent like 10 C each on the maps. I think I overpaid a little bit 'cause someone like came to me, so I paid like 20 or like 12. But uh, I rolled some of my own. Let's say, let's say 12 C for eight mod Ms Maps. So 12 C per map time 50, 600 c. And we also spent on the map device four C per map. That's another 200 C guys. We are ative 920 C. Did we make money? Let's find out. Uh, I think this is like, this is like a 10 20 C fracture. We'll put this aside too, whatever, nobody cares. Let's uh, refresh and Wealthy Exile time. [ __ ] Strat everyone sell your scarabs, but wait, there is more. So we are doing BC BC BC Beast or cringe and we're clicking how much is in these three tabs. 48 div wow. Um, how much chaos is that? 176. That's 8,448.

C, so we made 7,520 HC pure profit over 50 Maps. Now, how much is that in divines? That's 42.7 div over 50 Maps. That's a 0.85 div per map profit. How long did it take to run? I timed it, and I didn't write it down, but it took 40 minutes for 10 Maps, 39, but whatever, close enough. So, 40 * 5 is 200 minutes divided by 60 is 3.33 hours for 50. So, divided by 3.33 is 12.8 div per hour. Very nice if you're just, you know, zooming through, killing carb, is going next. This is uh, if you're only mapping, not leaving trading, Kings marching, shipping, whatever. As always, these numbers are based on my results with my clear speed. It's not a giga speed Mage blood build. I didn't put any speech Trends on my map, so you're basically limited by The Harbinger spawning the monsters, not like by our clear speed really, 'cause uh, you're

just you're just killing them. If you have a decent build, all of the loot is raw currency and scarabs, which are easy to liquidate in bulk or on the auction house if you want to use your gold. How much gold did we gain? We gained this much gold. Let's open another calculator. We made 1.3 million gold during the 50 Maps, which is 26k gold per map, and over 3.33 hours is uh 400k gold per hour. It's not bad for gold, definitely not bad. There are better gold-only strats, but it's actually on the high end of just like generic mapping. The eight mod stuff helps for sure. You can run this on lower investment. You can do not eight mod maps if you want to eat into your investment a little bit, and uh you can run the obalis Scarab instead of one of these. That'll save you four C per map, and then you have to spread out and loot the stuff that drops from the obelisks. I did not like this. I just

wanted more haries and more just single loot piles that I can just nicely scroll loot, so that's what I picked. So, you can run it a little cheaper by just going six mod or alen go and uh then put in the scarabs. Atlas runos failed the map and someone died unlucky. So, Harbinger pretty good actually decent numbers I would say. You don't have to do a lot of thinking, you click some Alters, you kill some arbinger and uh you get some raw loot. I got one and a half fracture orb. I don't know if that's average or bad or good. I ran 50 Maps. I got one and a half fracturing orb. I got really lucky at the start like I think the second and the third map I already got like eight or 16 shards and then I got nothing for like 30 maps and then they started kind of dropping again. It's a little ups and downs apparently it's pretty bad pretty unlucky. So, you can expect maybe even a

little more than this on average, but that's what we got. That's the data. Harbinger, Old Reliable, pretty based, I would say. Decent Strat, good luck, thanks for watching, bye. [Music]
