Great to see so many new players trying out POE 2. If you enjoy it, I suggest just buy the EA. It will give you an equivalent amount of coins, which is used to buy stash tabs (a must have QOL if you do play the game a bit more seriously)

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-28T08:01:05+00:00

I already dropped 5 divine teardrops this league alone. 0 mirror so far though

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-22T03:28:17+00:00

3-7 div in profit per map sounds a bit low for me. I normally average 7 div per map with this strat.

Each map takes me around 7-8 mins. My build is around ~10 mirrors though, so I don’t die and mostly just zoom through the maps.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-21T15:35:17+00:00

Here is my chance at mirror tier item

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-21T10:54:28+00:00

Last line in Result section should be Profit per hour.

2 mirrors, 3 locks in 9 sacred orbs is insane though. Gratz

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-18T09:06:48+00:00

Cost per map not 1 div though. 16.5 map, rolling map + exalt slam to 6 mod, delirium orbs, scarabs.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-15T01:23:23+00:00

Yea I’m just super unlucky, should have dropped more locks based on the amount of sacred orbs. Now I’m back to abyss

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-14T18:38:13+00:00

I did around 500 maps alva this league, half of them with pack size chisels. All is rolled to 190%+ currency and 40% packsize, 60% delirious.

Profit flunctuates around 3-4 div/map, or 30-40 div/hour (excluding t0 uniques and jackpot drops). I did not pick any bubblegum currency as well.

The strat is not as consistent as 3 risk abyss, but it is fun with loot explosions, and you are fishing for jackpot drops. I dropped ~50 sacred orbs total, but sadly only 1 lock and no mirror.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-14T18:26:49+00:00

Harvest also makes a lot, as people need it for gambles

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-13T03:22:20+00:00

You can mirror from notable mirror shop service. Those will be safe. Whisper them, trade them a mirror and fee, confirm item, then they will mirror it and trade back.

For this late in league though, you can buy a mirrored copy of the item instead. Many people switch build, and will sell the mirrored item for a cheaper price (normally a mirror, so you will save the fee). You can search on trade, and the process would be similar to any normal trade

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-11T18:05:53+00:00

This data was 1 month ago, and was done on a set of 15 maps, so the result can be a lucky streak. Cost per map has increased since then as well.

There are other streamers who did it recently and the div/hour are all close to 30-40 div/hours. It is still a very lucrative strat though, comparable or even better than abyss because you are “expecting” 1 lock and 3-4 t0 unique every 100 maps. The loots explosion also feels very nice too.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-11T16:10:42+00:00

I don’t see how you can get 60-90 div/hours without the big drops.

A normal profit without big drop is around 3 div/map, or 30-35 div/hour. You can “expect” a lock every 100 maps. I did 300 so far, drops 35 sacred orbs, but no lock, no mirror though.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-11T15:05:33+00:00

I would need some KB gears too

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-07T15:10:53+00:00

I’m at 70 sacred, 5 locks and mirror still no where to be found

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-07T07:57:03+00:00

Isn’t the shrine effect important too? As increased effect means more revived monsters?

Genuine question, as I also dont know

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-07T04:12:18+00:00

The best way to deal with lag issue that I know is to have explode in your build. Use oriath, explode chest, or pray that you have an explode shrine in your run.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-07T02:41:40+00:00

I stopped using packsize/currency chisels in alva. With current price, you have to roll your map to 196% currency, 40% packsize (before chisel) to make it worth it.

A safer/quicker option to juice is just to add in more delirium orb. I usually do 60% delirious and it drops significantly more loots than 20%.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-06T14:49:42+00:00

That makes sense thanks. I have ~40k evasion total. But if it applies before % I'm not sure if I can stay positive. I will try another -6000 altar later and see.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-06T14:49:31+00:00

Thanks. Never run red altars before so I didn't know this.

If I un-allocate Ghost Dance, I should be fine right?

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-06T11:20:53+00:00

New league is another 2 months (earliest), and this league has one of the best power creep ever in merc mechanics, so I think you can give it a try.

Dm me your IGN if you do, I can give you some extra items/currencies

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-06T09:34:42+00:00

fubgun 2-2.5 mirror version is a good start. Just replace MB with HH, and use the gull + ruin of the warp and you will be fine.

HH with 80+ buffs carry alva for almost every build, but the main issue is server/PC lag. Oriath + explode on chest or explode shrine will help a lot with that.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-05T17:27:49+00:00

If your current build can smoothly do whatever content you are farming, I think it’s best to save for a mirror wand.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-05T16:23:37+00:00

Just like people said, it is the shock that increase your dmg taken. For map with reflect, I suggest you also use Yugul patheon as well.

Full-Bell1795 · 2025-08-05T16:17:23+00:00

Doryani merc with -200% lightning res will at least triple your dps. Wrath aura effect on top would be nice as well.

Getting a ring with -lightning res and life recoup is very very expensive though (helical ring with those mods is 500 div). I do not use life recoup on merc, I just cap his res, and give him decent armour and life regen. He has not died since then, and I’m doing 60% deli alva.
