Basic currency drops

No matter how hard I try I just can not get any relevant (in amount or value) basic currency to drop in my maps and I do not understand what is wrong with my setup.

Seeing so many players speak about their 1-2 raw divs per map, I feel so sad to have around 10 raw divs throughout this whole league and those few seemed to be extremely lucky drops in comparison with my other average basic currency loot. 2 of those were in campaign btw, act 2 and act 4. T.T

Please help me understand what I am doing wrong.

I currently run 197% rarity on me. T15 crafted maps. 3 ritual tablets with 10 quantity each.

My atlas looks like this:


And these are examples of my 5 consequent maps and loot. Note that that one annul was a ritual reward:


Other examples after 0.3.1b update

Atlas unchanged (still without Local Knowledge). 197% rarity on me (I can not get rid of the excess 47% now, not that it should matter). Example maps and tablets attached in screenshot compilations (as well as map stats and loot from those maps)

5 maps crafted with chaotic rarity (125%-127%) and desecrated for Abyss Depths. 3 Ritual tablets with 9%-10% quantity.


10 maps crafted with chaotic rarity (125%-126%) and desecrated for Abyss Depths. 3 Ritual tablets with 35-39% increased number of Rare Monsters.


5 maps crafted with chaotic rarity (131%-133%) and desecrated for Abyss Depths. 3 Ritual tablets with 38-39% increased number of Rare Monsters. This set was run WITH Local Knowledge.



Update 13 Oct

Breach strategy.

10 maps crafted with chaotic rarity (125%-133%) and desecrated for 3 additional Pits. Instilled 3x paranoia. 2 Breach tablets with 36-37% increased number of Rare Monsters and 27% chance to contain an additional Breach. 1 Irradiate tablet with 36% increased number of Rare Monsters. Died in 3 of these maps without any relevant rewards. Here is the result of the rest of them.

These drops do not seem to be ok for the amount of investments i put in my maps.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Having the same sort of experience as you, I am starting to think that rarity is broken on maps.

On a side note I ran a 110% pack size yesterday instead of the usual rarity and souch loot was dropping that I could hardly see the map. Nothing higher than chaos orbs but the amount of stuff dropping was insane.

I saw a video of some data analysis that said the Local Knowledge passive on the atlas tree actually reduces currency drops on non-swamp and non-water biomes. I'm going to try speccing out of it.

Fish for water/swamp bioms, take local knowledge passive(only for water/swamp bioms), use rare monsters+breach tablets, use liquid paranoia, equip 100+ rarity, use rarity omen and decerate maps. After patch dropped i found that quantity is no longer a king(because you cant stack enough of it rn), but amount of rare monsters are.

My friend and I were running duos with like 500% rarity and 120% quantity. After 5-6 hours, we only dropped 5 Divine Orbs and some pocket change. At these rates, it feels like we should be getting 5 Divines every 2 maps

Having a real hard time believing you. That, or you're juicing completely incorrectly. I too originally was complaining about the drops and the way they feel. After increasing my sample size and pushing my character to 150 rarity, I've found less consistent tinks, but overall more raw currency drops in total.

I've been running chaotic rarity omens with 3x quantity tablets and I've been having pretty insane results. There is overall LESS currency and loot dropping from the maps, but the rare currency is coming in hordes.

In a 10 map stretch last night I dropped 3x Omen of Lights, 4 Perfect Exalted and around 1-2 Div per map. I had a single map drop 5 Div too.

The quantity nerf feels bad, but if your prepping your juice properly, it still rains.

Are you running 3x quant tabs and stacking rare monsters? 500% rarity is pretty much proven to be useless due to the diminishing returns.

I managed to try only one map with high pack size prior to 0.3.1b update, but nothing changed. I ran it with 3 ritual tablets with number of rare monsters. Plan to try more though.

Yea, heard about that as well. Specced out of it some time ago too, but haven't noticed any change in my loot =(

I find it rather hard to track which biome is map node in as it can't be seen on the atlas rn. But I could definitely try harder on this one.
Have tried rare monsters on tablets (ritual though, breach is a bit overwhelming for me atm). Tried paranoia 3x - map is harder, but I don't feel it to be more rewarding (other than getting some splinters)

I plan to try stacking rare monsters again now after 0.3.1b update.
