Drop Mechanics: The Three Amigos of Looting

To start with, let’s understand three key factors that control loot drop in maps:

• Item Quantity (IQ): Loot is a must-have. Higher IQ means more drops; plain and simple.
• Item Rarity: This spicy modifier determines whether your drops are going to be ordinary or if you will be drowning in uniques and rare currencies.
• Monster Pack Size: The more the merrier. More monsters mean more chances to strike it rich with each pack you obliterate.

How to Leveraging the League Mechanic?

Affliction league’s mechanic is a game-changer, especially with its wisps.

• Primal Wisps (Blue): These little beauties make poe raw currency more likely to drop from monsters. Pure gold!
• Vivid Wisps (Yellow): They increase IQ on your maps which implies higher loot per monster.
• Wild Wisps (Purple): They increase item rarity so that you have better chances for juicy pines.

How to Maximize Wisps?

It is important to harvest wisps but remember, greater power comes with mightier opponents. So, your character needs to be strong enough for the task ahead, lest you perish too often. If you find that you are dying too much, it may be time to "reboot" or remake your build. The faster and stronger the player is, the more maps they can run through and thus the more currency they earn.

Atlas Passive Tree: Roadmap to Riches

Think of your atlas passive tree as a map of treasures. Navigate it carefully and you will find wealth beyond imagination. How?

• Focus on nodes that increase monster pack size and quantity.
• Wandering Path is a keystone that doubles the effect of small passives. Combine with notables that amplified the impact of map modifiers for a killer combo.
• Growing Hordes Keystone turns your scarabs into monster pack size boosters. Accumulate many scarabs and then let them do their work.

Strategy Over Speed

When running your juiced-up maps, strategy is more important than speed. First, pe into the league mechanic, gather all wisps like there is no tomorrow, and give priority to blue wisps which mean extra drops of currency. Be cautious when using altars which should be focused on quantity, rarity and drop duplication. Stay away from bosses unless they have lots of pines.

Trading Secrets

Finally, my currency-making secret sauce: bulk trading plus Poststack tool. Poststack scans your stash evaluing everything that’s easily pricable. It’s an eye-opener and you will find some hidden treasures you never knew about. Use the bulk trading formula to make your trades faster and more effective for profit purposes only. This is how you can make big sales that attract buyers ready to pay slightly more for convenience sake.
