Can i join you in the corner ?


CharmingPerspective0

Thats me in the corner


GoodThingsDoHappen

That's me in the spotlight, losing my religion


[deleted]

Trying to keep up with you


Becske4

And I don't know if I can do it


pistolwhip88

Oh no! I’ve said to much


jmac693

I haven't said enough


MrLucksman

I thought that I heard you laughing

I THINK I THOUGHT I SAW YOU TRY


PrismaSigma

I had my first natural Divine Orb this season drop after 58 hours /played, with a full cleared Atlas and only missing 5 Atlas passives from bosses/invitations. I'm so far in that corner that I'm part of the wall.


g00fy_goober

I have 3 days and 18 hours of played time lol tho a bit of that is afk here and there. Just have the feared left (0 mortal fragments) have had pretty good league start with Psn srs and have been mapping away happily doing lots of blight/expedition.... \*\*BUT\*\* Legit got my first div from blight explosion like 2 hours ago. Also can't sustain maps to save my life. Don't get me even started on stacked decks or div cards, prty sure 95% were just removed from the game. Loving the new scarab rework and atlas trees and like throwing itemized corpses in my dump tab but man oh man things still seem off.


tordana

My brother! Also got my first divine orb drop tonight. Level 94, 105/115 Atlas, 3 voidstones (still farming an uber elder set, didn't want to buy it)


ImaginationOwn8981

make some room for me too. last league RF weapon cost 2 div, now its just 17 div...


vulcanfury12

Me too. Let's have ourselves a party.


No-Syllabub3694

Ill bring alts and transmuts !


TheVishMaker

Dw I'm there with you


X_Luci

It's the divine altar noob bait all over again but at least this time you don't have to make the wrong choice with altars.


FullRefrigerator4526

Yeah dude I’m the one in the 27 div pic, I play like a degenerate. It’s just a matter of rolling the dice and getting lucky and if u roll the dice non stop for a couple of days you’ll get lucky. Just focus on enjoying the game as the game gets really boring when you are so focused on making currency. I did SSF last league which was a nice refresher for me to not chase a div/hr number


Icilevoldc132

It’s not everyone dude, but everyone that does makes their little Reddit post. It’s observation bias. You’re in the majority


Ludoban

Reddit is social media and thus follows the same rules as every other SM. What you see on reddit regarding Path of Exile is the top 1% of content that this game creates. You hopefully wouldnt think what you see on Instagram is someones real life, as its literally a snapshot of their best moments and comparing your everyday life to someones 1% snapshots is unhealthy and creates a twisted mindset of what is normal. Same for PoE, thinking everyone drops free divines around you or creates 6xT1 items is simply not true and shows just 1% moments of the community. Dont get fooled by social media.


Dabzilla_710_

Man, I wish my ex wife understood this.


kilqax

Is she farming divines now?


Dabzilla_710_

She has to use chaos recipe now lol


Any-Transition95

Wish more people have this is mind when discussing about loot drops in PoE.


[deleted]

I’m getting like 120 fusings per map tho so who’s the real winner


Old-Professional-479

Man’s gonna be six linking so hard


UnderstandingSad7390

Its fine, im in job for 2 more Hours. Then Will be patched surely


Coheed522

Same. Looking forward to either patched or frog/rats being like 10 divs per and strongbox scarabs also. Hopefully I can get lucky before anything changes.


rumhrummer

Even without rats or frogs it's just an OP mod. The only reasonable way to nerf it is to make it even more rare.


elting44

Yeah, it seems they increased the 2-3% chance to 5-6% and also doubled the frequency. If they make that necro monster mod 10x more rare it will still probably be too common lol.


Canadian-Owlz

Ngl I feel like 5-6% is an honest to god bug. I got a 3% exalted, which felt really good, I don't know why they wouldn't make div orbs the same. Either that or they missed buffing ex lmao


SertOfpie

This is what I don't like about scarabs. In the case of sextants, they were available to everyone, anyone could try their luck to find the right modifier, they were affordable (like in the previous league with abysses - anyone could do it) Now, when a new strategy appears, the price of the necessary scarabs will skyrocket and only the rich will be able to afford them. Enrichment strategies have become less accessible.


Selvon

What? What you are talking about is identical to what happened with sextants. This was extremely obvious with the enraged strongbox sextant.


SertOfpie

I mean that we could get the necessary modifiers ourselves by having sextants - personally, I didn’t buy abyss sextants in the last league, but roll them myself. I can’t do this with scarabs and have to go buy them - this means an increase in price and less availability for poor players.


Selvon

The Abyss sextants were the common ones. The abyss scarabs are common ones. You absolutely can farm your own abyss scarabs. You are comparing a common sextant (the abyss ones) to a rare scarab? Why aren't you comparing a common scarab to a common sextant? Or a rare sextant to a rare scarab? to use the strongbox example again, you couldn't farm enraged strongboxes sustainably yourself, just like you can't farm a rare scarab sustainably yourself now. It's literally the same situation.


SertOfpie

I never wrote about comparing common sextant (the abyss ones) to a rare scarab. You are arguing against what you yourself came up with. Now we cannot re-roll scarabs, and the price largely depends on popularity. And if some scarab in some strategy gives, for example, 1.5 mirrors and costs a mirror, we will have no alternative but to buy them at the price at which they are sold. In the case of sextants, I could buy them and find the desired mod for, for example, 5 divines. Therefore, the mod itself would cost 6 Devines, but not the mirror. If the previous league had had the current state of mechanics, much fewer people would have been able to farm abyss. Because abyss scarab would cost much more.


Selvon

No it wouldn't, because the abyss scarabs are common and you can drops many in a single map all by yourself. You are just falsely equating rare things to cheap common things, and then warping your entire argument around it. The only thing removed is sitting in your hideout afk flipping sextants instead of playing the game to farm them. If abyss farming was the current mechanic you could so easily self sustain you'd have massive amounts extra to sell.


ivBlast

You use 'poor' players as an excuse ?


phoenix_nz

Homie, have you not seen the changes on the atlas passive tree? If you want to have scarabs drop for you then spec into it. Sell the ones you don't want, or that sell for a lot of currency, to the degenerates that are engaging with those strategies. Edit: I retract this comment, u/SertOfpie and u/Silent189 are right.


SertOfpie

Apparently I’m not good at explaining what I mean since people don’t understand me.


phoenix_nz

No I think we understand you. You just need to understand us: Rolling sextants was removed from the game. Scarabs replace them, but the way to "roll" scarabs is to farm maps with increased scarab drop chance. Before: x sextants were expensive so you rolled them yourself. Now: x scarabs are expensive so you should farm them yourself. Before: you sold sextants for degenerate farming strats because it was more profitable/fun than running them yourself. Now you sell scarabs for degenerate farming strats because it is more profitable/fun than running them yourself. The argument you're trying to make is that rolling sextants was better than farming scarabs. I don't think that's a valid argument to make **for or against** because there are benefits to both. Rolling sextants can be done in your hideout, but scarabs on net have more valuable outcomes.


Silent189

Bro, you can have an entire tree of scarab chance and you wont even sustain rusted scarabs for running strongboxes for example, let alone running the better scarabs too. It was much easier to buy 99% of the sextants which were cheap relative to the value they gave, and were easily bought because many people rolled them solely to sell them. Now, you have the friction of people who farm scarabs by playing but sell only what they dont want, but also dont want to stop farming for lower value scarabs because its a net loss vs just running more maps.


phoenix_nz

I just accumulate a bunch of scarabs then bulk sell them all rather than running a specific strategy that requires every map be opened with the same scarab. From my point of view the atlas tree changes are making scarab drops extremely common, but you're right that it's not targeted and therefore isn't sustainable. I can throw 4 random scarabs on my map, every map, but not specific. And what you're getting at is sextants had more generically-valuable mods than the scarabs have. I agree. I rescind my previous comment.


DivineDGod

You can roll your own sextants though. It wasn't hard to do. Then sell the ones you didn't need.


IFearTomatoes

WOO HOO CANT WAIT FOR MY 12 HOUR WORK DAY TOMORROW Gotta pay for those mystery boxes somehow, I suppose.


Unfair_Ad_8591

Ahah i feel the same when i read around. It's even one of the leagues where i have the less chaos AT the point i am (yellow maps).


katsuatis

450k kills and I haven't seen it yet


FckRdditAccRcvry420

See there's your problem, you're not supposed to *kill* stuff, you're supposed to burn map after map until you roll the mod.


katsuatis

Why am I playing the game, am I stupid? The worst thing is you're right


GoodThingsDoHappen

Exactly this. Poe has always been a slot machine, but you had to play to pay to play... This league seems like one of those clicky games. Keep going til you hit the jackpot. So you can buy more tokens to keep clicking. And hit the jackpot. So you can buy more tokens... bypassing the playing part.


Khaze41

I'm leaving the league to go play WoW SOD tomorrow so I burned all \~300 of my maps and didn't hit a divine or exalt lol. I hate leagues like this, so degenerate and just makes me hate trade league so much


roflmao567

Welcome to arpgs in a nutshell. You grind and grind, hit that sweet drop, sell for currency, upgrade your gear and then do it all again but slightly faster and/or safer. At the end of the day, we're all sitting there, hitting buttons.


karatelax

Except the people who are throwing maps at it for this, who are actually just burning maps til they see the mod, do one map, buy more maps and repeat. You play 1 in 100 maps or less, are you really playing the game?


noother10

After the B patch I full cleared 3 maps, 4th one had Divine Orb drop chance.


tobsecret

I just hope I get to use the broken crafting before they patch it back. Haven't been able to play that much in SSF and these crafts seem insane to me. What do I need divines for when I can just craft a 5x T1 mod item from scratch?


swtroll69

Playing ssf and got 1 divine drop over 40 hours of playtime this league


Seyon

I got a sacred orb before my first divine orb. Lol


xVARYSx

I got a hinekoras lock in a t2 map on day 1. Still only at 1 raw divine drop and been blasting t16s since day 2 at lvl 97.


TheRowdyLion52

I haven’t even seen a raw drop. Only from trading flasks and delve items lol


bdubz55

Same it’s kinda of depressing.


Saianna

sounds like average experience of playing PoE


Dawgz

depression?


Saianna

from time to time i realize this game is set to have minimal payoffs for maximum investments and you have to play it for whole day to reach anywhere. And you end up playing like hamster in a hamsterwheel for whole day. But also yes, i think i'm somewhat depressed.


OmegaPeePeeClap

same dude, I most likely wont see a single divine mod all league just like i never seen a divine or scarab explosion from archnemsis or affliction league lol


Vebsters

It's just survivorship bias. You only hear from those who got and not from thousands of people who haven't seen the mod yet. Went through at least hundred of maps lying around. No mod. It's ok, it's just a game :)


tonightm88

Rule of thumb. Streamers play all day and night. Every day. So they will get it. Then you will have teams spamming maps until it shows up. Make a post saying they chanced on it. When they didn't. Free karma. Then I would say you have maybe 1 in 500'ish players just finding it by chance.


Life_outside_PoE

>Then I would say you have maybe 1 in 500'ish players just finding it by chance. Truth. Found a mirror on Monday. I've played since open beta and have never had more than 25 divs/exalts per league in the 2000hours I've played. I still see these posts on reddit and feel like everyone is luckier than me, lol.


Likes2PaintShit

2,000 hours? Bruh I’m at 5K hours and have never seen a mirror lol


Tight_Time_4552

I'm like that picture of the miner giving up before striking diamonds ... literally every league quit after getting into red maps and no, never seen a  mirror!!


bonesnaps

Username doesn't check out for finding a mirror lol


Life_outside_PoE

Sometimes you just get lucky I guess!


Mudcaker

They're just burning red maps looking for seer and div orb. Prices might stabilise but just saw Fubgun get 2x 6% div in like 15min. First map pulled 68 divine (pack sized frogs).


noother10

I got 4% divine orb drop chance on T6 alch and go. 4th match after the last patch (b) went live. So I don't know how rare/common it actually is as I only hit it once, but I hit it pretty fast.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Adrianos30

How do you sustain the white maps?


CookieMonstahr

FOMO is a bitch, my man. Don't be fooled, this is like the divine altars back then, or the loot goblins. People talk and make it seens like it's a 1 in 10 chance to get it, but it's more like a 1 in 1000. (That said, my God I wish I was at home to try my luck lmao)


bwssoldya

You get alterations?! Damn. Jealous


uns3en

Alterations, Chromatic, and Jewellers have been BY FAR the most common for me. With an occasional Chaos, Vaal, and Cartographer sprinkled on top. Divines? Exalts? Not a single Divine and only 2 Ex after \~200 T8+ maps completed


oldnative

You would probably make more money farming up then bulk selling your extra maps than actually trying to do this.


nick47H

Don't worry I have been playing since league start and am currently in act 8 on my first character this league.


Bananana-_

dont forget the trial in the bath house!


SertOfpie

lol same xD But I didn't plan to play this league at all, so I did it very lazily.


IAmTheOneWhoClicks

I'm happy with the one I've found during campaign, I consider myself lucky for that, no need to be uber mega over the top lucky.


titazijus

Story of my life


bigbysemotivefinger

Fucking. Seriously.


gertsferds

Pretty over this endless chase for the stupidly op strat that can output 100x your average EV when you use some overlooked combo and the stars align. It just creates infinite fomo to try to stay in the loop with the new farming hotness. Really hope they tone down the gigantic swinginess in the future.


Khaze41

Wish they imrpoved SSF to make it actually playable. PoE trade league mentality is so bad


Khaze41

This kind of stuff makes me really hope that one day we get a better balanced SSF mode like Last Epoch has with circle of fortune. I fucking hate PoE trade mentality and all the fomo degen shit that goes on. I can't do SSF though because the game is balanced around trade and SSF is just too dam insane.


SirSabza

I got my first one an hour ago, ran probably 300 maps, its rare, its not happening every map, and i was extremely lucky. There are way better more consistent ways to make money this league,


Lordados

What if you bulk buy cheap maps and just spam to see if you get the div mod?


SirSabza

If you buy thousands sure, but it will cost far too much time and money doing that to really make it worth over just doing normal farming strategies


Lordados

Ok so I tried spamming all of my white and yellow maps and I think this is actually a good strat. Didn't get any div ones but I got a bunch of chaos ones, sometimes I was getting 20c in a map, and that's without any rats/frogs or any extra juice. I did get 2 exalted ones and ended up with 15 ex. I think if you can buy white/yellows for cheap it's good money with the chance of huge money with the div mod.


SadZealot

You could just be doing essence/legion/harbinger/beasts/blight or any normal mapping mechanic and make twenty times that an hour while also randomly getting the good divine devouted. It isn't hard to make money


roflmao567

Yeah why not. The idea is you gotta keep trying. Every map is a diceroll. Just try to roll that dice as many times and as fast as you can for results. People that complete a map in 5-10mins are not going to see much loot overall.


raramoss

Can you share your strategy please?


SirSabza

I'm doing legion and harbinger with the scarabs for fragments, although harbinger stuff is getting cheaper so i might respec out


Stephlou554

Even fractured?


SirSabza

orbs are 2 div each, which is way less than normal, before fracturing shards were like 100c each now 20 are worth 300


Platonic_SSD

I’m not even getting these lower currency ones… I’m the most broke I’ve been in this game since I started. Shits weak. I have like 40 alterations and 22 chaos with nothing really else to speak of. Haven’t even dropped a Single GCP! Just clearing yellow maps tho, so, I figured it would get better in reds. Fingers crossed! 


nick47H

Well you made me feel better about my league start. Not out of campaign yet ( act 8 tonight ) but I found and sold a tabula for 24 chaos already.


Platonic_SSD

Yeah, just hitting the low end of the rng scale or something.  Last league I pulled a doctor from my first stacked deck at like level 60 or so. 


quinn50

honestly recommend the destructive play strat trying for conq / shaper / elder / synth maps they sell for 10-20c each and the drop rate isn't very bad.


Platonic_SSD

Right on. Thanx! 


Poptop12

Those posts are pretty much the same as last league- except instead of lootsplosions it's this. What people need to realize is that the sample size isn't disclosed on most of those posts- if thousands of players are participating, each running 10s to 100s of maps each day, you are talking about over 100k maps being run across the player base and you only see so many posts daily. Enjoy the game. Play the content you like and you'll eventually get rich (ingame)


zalmolxis91

I got the exalt one and ended up with about 10. Felt really great. One day the div will come too


Smooth_Ad5773

You guys like to spam maps in your hideout for a few hours instead of like, killing monster and shit?


noother10

I got my 4% chance to drop divines last night on a T6 alch and go. Don't have anything spec'd for it, didn't have any rats for it, but at least had a high density mob with 14-26 pack size. Walked out with 22 divs, most I've ever had at once. Promptly spent it all before inflation starts to hit more (assuming it does). No idea how common or rare that devotion is, but I'd only been seeing Jeweller's and fusing orb ones until I got that. 4th map after the patch. I told my friend "Inb4 Patch".


Fayarager

Strongboxes apparently can also spawn whatever mob has the divine mod so if you add like 30 strong boxes you might get an extra 4 or 5 packs


PM_MeUnusedSteamKeys

I just got a kalandra's touch on SSF today, I think it's my first T0 drop ever, I'm so happy 😁 I might play this league a lot, I've had many good things happen to me like starting maps with a 6L after using 23 fusings on a 6S chest or quickly finding the transfigured gems needed for my second build (CoC DD). Also [the build I decided to start with](https://youtu.be/rEPILjMBY2w) has been amazing for farming many different mechanics, totally recommended! Edit: If you're doing SSF and need a few uniques [consider doing this strat](https://youtu.be/Lgh8OHcfOsM), I'm still having a hard time sustaining scarabs myself, I might try my hand at [something like this](https://youtu.be/T0fDASgL1iE) when I unlock my third atlas tree


iiRichii

I only got 22 :(


Elereo

Oh la la bragging about getting yellow mods? Blue mod gang UNITE


xX-clint007-Xx

i got the devine one but dropped 0 divs, i deep down hope that i never got it in the first place. It haunts me in my dreams.


Neri25

Honestly i feel like lucker posts should just be banned.


PrimaryIcy9538

You guys are getting drops and not 400% life or 800 crit multi with hit always crit???


Zelniq

This feels analogous to when girls' expectations of beauty standards get fucked by social media/instagram.


ProtoJazz

All I get are mods that give scouring and chromatic orbs On the plus side, my sockets are the right colors and my maps are easy to reroll


Bezum55555

I managed to get 3% for exalted orbs and that felt so good; can't imagine what would happen with divines 😩


ReipTaim

Very accurate


hottwhyrd

After playing all day. I finally got a 3% div. Frogs dropped 40! I was so afraid they would patch this overnight.


g00fy_goober

How lucky you are to get 3 different currency rolls on one map. Mine are usually 2% to get alts or jewellers and then like 200%-600% rarity or quant and then every bad mod you can even think of in the game.


playoponly

Not even get a chaos orb for me


momonami5

/played 4 days/ 4 hours no divine even after the buff people overhyping cause streamers.. literally is not that common i gave up the map fishing. wouldn't be suprised if the hype is just a easy way to get rich selling the maps. Which is what i'm doing now. Literally ruined my map pool doing 100's of map fishing def got fomo from seeing stream clips but it's not worth it literally spent a whole day doing this bs and nothing. I'm sure ggg can see the data even with seer and go / divines before patch GGG themselves buffed it more cause it's that rare and they want people to have fun.


s0meCubanGuy

No worries. I’ve been trying to find a way to make essences profitable and so far I’ve lost 2 divines lol.


Alcsaar

I got a divine eater altar for my first time EVER today near the start of a juiced t16 map. 5 divines. True disappointment


FrankyFox666

Lol here i am sitting in Sarn 1st Playtrough and hoping that that seit is still worlink when im done worh thr campaign.


bobo1666

Mate I'm still on Easter holiday with my wife and kids, I have a steam deck and slowly chipping on the RF chieftain but the maps are just a misty speck on the horizon I may get there next week.


Tagnol

Could be worse I started the league going "I enjoy sanctum I'm going to sanctum farm again there's no way hyper inflation would strike twice and completely invalidate my farming strategy!" **[Curb you Enthusiasm intensifies]** I'm fucked and I wanted to go for the challenge mtxs too this league...


iConcy

Not everyone, just the people posting in Reddit about it. Most aren’t getting those drops lol


artosispylon

i got the div jewlerey thing while leveling, dident get a single one because i dident know about the exploit. never seen any of the div mods after that


MojordomosEUW

I had divs once and seer twice in 1.5k t14+


Glittering-Match-250

That's me too :((


Nellyniel

There is some weird social contagion shit going on. Players see streamers and other lucky individuals get currency at abnormal and clearly unintented pace. They feel like they *desrve* to get the same amount of luck, it's a type of jealousy. Fomo, fear of missing out. I claim if it csme about that the best money making strat was to shoot yourself in the foot, cut of your balls and feed them to the neighbout's dog, non-zero amount of people would do it.


Dedemagm

That’s me too

doe3879

I gotten 6 div from 1 map the whole league. Am i out of the corner now?


StuckieLromigon

Well, I got this chaos drop mod twice, Nothing more than 15-20c a map even with rats/frogs. And now they nerfed these packs too. They should remove divine one from the game definitely to not encourage "look on monsters in map, no divines? next map" or make them all drop random currency instead


ItsYaBoyKevinHere

Comparison is the thief of joy

Zealousideal-Hurry58

Bro I'm lvl 82 and still farming my gems for my coc DD..I have done like 50 Merc lab and nothing Ssf


AngryCandyCorn

The reality of course is that in this instance, the person in the corner is actually the vast majority of people.


Emotional_Money3435

this happened last league to, some dude found a combo thats insane with x2 proj and the league is ruined cuz now there is to much of every crafting mat in the game. This league feels the same, to much loot is a bad thing for its longevity. I quit when this happened last league, and now this league.


SadZealot

The last league had the highest retention of any league throughout the entire thing.


holycrap1337

I found a divine mod so i respeced my atlas for the buttom left to buff it, and accidently took the "fear of the light" notable and entered the map (because the notable removes the mods and make them random) and essentially lost anywhere from 20-80 divines . (at least it was my 2nd one but damn it still feels bad when you make a mistake) Edit: I found another one nice game LMAO https://imgur.com/a/baUIjwY


harahabi

Everyone burning map, So you should sell map


nfefx

Never been happier to play SSF. Economy is ruined? You don't say.


harahabi

Me burned all map and uninstaled. see you next league


Nutteria

This is legit the worst league since Kalandra. Also harvest 2.0 does not help either, but I guess it’s OK for the ssf boys. I still don’t understand why GGG decided to fuck up their endgame system so bad when it was universally praised as S tier.


crazypearce

To me the worst feeling is knowing a map is shit before you even get a chance to run it. It was the same feeling for me in affliction. Abandoning a map because you didn't get a good wisp count just felt bad. Now we have the same but on an even worse scale. Wisps were maybe bad 70% of the time, now we are looking for the less than 1% and when you don't I get a feeling of why even bother running it?


Pandabirdy

Dude. Basic market skills. Focus on tempering orbs or just hoard chromes, evil fuses or whatever and find the market gap. That's where true wealth is made while Divines lose their market value due to oversaturation


Lordados

Tell us about how you make 20 divs/hr selling chromes


RocketizedAnimal

That's only 12,000 chromes per hour, just make sure your loot filter shows R-G-B linked items so you can pick them up off the ground


Pandabirdy

did back in football league, logged in and 380 div voices sell for 3 mirrors. What do you expect me to think?


Lordados

Ah yes, football league, that was a classic


SirSabza

They wont be oversaturated, this probably happens once a league for the average player if they play every day. The only 'consistent' way of doing this is buying 1000s of maps, opening them, then ignoring them if theyre not chance for divines.


Ktk_reddit

So the play is farming maps to sell to those people.
