NIghtmare Maps Farm Strat

Hello everyone,
I have a lot of nightmare maps 8mods corrupted unidentified.I would like to know what are some good strategies to farm them? SHould I run them unidentified with some random atlas-skills and scarabs?Or should I hunt more 8mods corrupted maps with them. Maybe fix my atlas points into alva and farm magic incursion monsters for scarabas and gold? Maybe target directly currency drops?
What is your preferable method, what seems to be , not necessarily the best, but some of the decend strategies.

There are very few things you can currently do in nightmare maps anymore:

- Rushing for uber fragments with or without high quantity rolls. Make sure to show the boss specific uniques for dust. Twist of Fate got disables as well.

- Plenty and pilfering scarabs on sanctuary since it drops expensive cards.

- Terror, pandemonium, basic shrine scarab (and possible awakened scarab) to farm astrolabes and "final boss" altar rewards.

- Let your kingsmarch mappers run nightmare maps (I wish I was kidding).

You won't find much of scarabs, gold or raw currency in there. I've tried over 30 strats in nightmare maps this patch and it's all just bad. All you can add is fixed, targeted reward tile loot and half of those strats don't work properly either.

I used to run them with rogue exiles oriented atlas tree + anarchy/titanic scarabs and I was drowning in scarabs/currency/uniques and bases. Now nightmares maps hardly drop 1 base warlock gloves and they are ilvl85 tops (if rare). Very disappointing indeed.
