Address fav maps still not dropping!

Unless there is a new strat to obtain fav maps this league I'm not aware of.

My fav maps are still not dropping! I have map scarabs every run, and all fav maps slots set to two maps.

I get maybe 1 or 2 fav maps in 20 maps.

I've also noticed, I'm only getting the same 6 or 7 maps without any deviation...

Immensely frustrating running maps I don't wish to run - but have to!

Even with 200% singular focus, I just ran 3 maps, and not 1 map dropped! Plus 50% scarab to :(

Juice your maps.
More quantity + more packsize = more maps.

This.

I had similar problem at the start of the league. Then i started to do 200-300%+ quantity maps with back to basics and no longer had a problem of running out of fav maps.

It's a sh*t system, but it's what it is.

the reason this happens, is that usualy you get your map drops from adjacent map drops, those cant be your favoured map, these can only be adjacent map, so those wont turn into your favored map
Pick a map adjacent to your favorite map to take up one of your fav map slots….

For example I have unlocked 12 slots and I have 11 slots used for Acid Cavern and 1 slot for Grotto.

I run all of my Acid Caverns usually pick up at least 1 Grotto per Acid Cavern.

Then I run one Grotto and with an Alc n go plus some scarab love I usually come out with 2-4 Acid Caverns per Grotto.

Works really with any adjacent combo. Never had problems sustaining fav maps. When I get sick of those two or get whatever I am target farming I switch to a new pair of adjacent maps.

Hope that helps.
I have ran that strat already - thanks for the advice though!

I'm running connected maps only for my fav maps. I have 40% extra chance, and also running 50% map scarab and shaping the world.

I can't figure why nothing is working?

It is honestly since scarabs replaced the other maps nodes on the atlas.

Only getting 1 fav map every 4 or 5 maps, no way to maintain, will have to buy.

PS: Also, if I get a fav map, it's generally a low tier like 3 or 4!?

Doing my nut in this!
