Tool-assisted Pantheon Mod Farming

"The community were concerned that the technique would allow nefarious players to quickly open a lot of maps and be able to see exactly which ones had a specific mod. The reality is that the overall efficiency benefits of the technique were limited and offset against the potentially high resource cost and high risk of being banned for it."


Chris... What kind of insane math do you use to claim this is non-profitable?
Please explain how spamming through maps would somehow NOT be the most efficient strategy?
When you find one of these monsters we have proven they will drop 30-80 divine orbs + other loot in a stacked 6man MF party. I would expect to locate this monster in less than 200 avg maps or the entire system would be BEYOND STUPID.
little investment is needed beyond maps themselves, which would be sustained when they locate a map mod monster exploding into more maps than they could carry.
6 players, 12 characters. all have a high speed character capable of speed scouting the map, once the monster is found, all other players abort their map and switch character to kill the target for a guarantied 30-80 divine orbs.

Assuming red maps all needed to be purchased at an atrocious rate of 15c per. 200 maps would still only cost 15 divine orbs.

There is no way this is not reliable massive profit. They also do not have to only kill that one type of mob, other combinations could fix

Third party programs only make this process easier, and dangerously temping to players trying to compete with those that are using them. Dont outright lie and say they will all be instant banned, it takes time before they are detected. This is a recipe for disaster, and you are going to blame the players for doing it when your new loot system is the root cause.

It sounds disgustingly unfun to play this legitimately. I dont know of any better way to play the game because you deleted the normal way we could play, and forced this archnemesis nonsense.

Do you realize that people started doing this after you changed the loot system?
It just doesn't work, it's not fun. Bad mechanics require players to have bad farming methods. I don't want to run hundreds of maps in the hope of encountering a rare opponent with the right modifiers. It's total random and it's demotivating.
The number of times I get happy when getting loot in this league is an order of magnitude less than in any league before this one.

Loot and harvest, that's what needs to be fixed. The league is already dying, the online decline is a record.

Any chance for a Cobra Lash MTX?

Rough Times, Appreciate you guys. I like the way the game is headed so I am in the vocal minority(I know you guys have the datamining), don't go overboard on archnemesis rewards tho.

Ty for this answer.

Have a good Week-End.

Get Plenty of rest.

Ps: I would like to hear about the actual state of minion's build in this league; i've lost the soul of this kind of build with the 3.19, so sad ....

Just get rid of the stupid archnemesis mods that nobody ever liked in the first place and fix the problem that way. Easy. Chris must have come up with archnemesis because he sure does refuse to remove it.

Thats the opposite of what an "average" is player is encountering right now. It is fairly not true that u get 25% more loot than last league. We dont know where this weird fact comes from. How could it be a good game design to fish for one good rare while the rest is completly unrewarding?

Please GGG fully rollback these changes and everybody is happy! And make harvest a great experience again, thats all we want. And if you want to generate more newer players removing AN completly would help a lot.

We only want our sooo loved game back. I played like 5000k hours and spent a lot of money on it. But after 3.14 its getting more and more frustrating.... its so sad.

And the future (you call it "Vision") looks so terrible that i think the game will lose a lot of its faithul veteran players.

Please dont make it so easy for Diablo 4 !!!

We do not want loot goblins! Why am l forced to chase some rare monster to have my rewards? Why having a full-time job and logging into the game in the evening I can't have fun and just relax doing my favourite league mechanics or whatever and be rewarded as I had been rewarded before you released 3.19?
The idea of loot goblins is disgusting!

just re-launch,,, tainted league
