I think this was a great video, with showcasing and pacing. New sub for sure.

thanks for the guide, love the scarab rework, lots of interesting farming strategy

Great strat, and great explanation. Im very keen to give this a try

What kind of insanity. This is the first farming strategy that I've been able to actually work with startling effect. My first 4 maps I've averaged about 25 Deafenings. That's not counting the instantly upgradeable Screaming essences. This is baller!!!

Worth a sub ill try the strat thanks dude

I've been searching for a good strat that isn't giga boring since league start and this one here is amazing. Takes a little investment to get going but once your rolling its great. Also the op div scarab that's going for 40d dropped for me. Unfortunately it was before everyone started doing the t17 map strat but still sold for 12d. Subscribed!

Amazing super informative video, thank you 😊

A few tips for the interested to boost the calcification scarab even further: - make map blue and reroll with alternation orbs until you get the +rare mobs modifier - take the Eternal Torment node on atlas - if you have the lantern window open, use Allflames to give monster pack leaders if they have none Be sure your char can handle strong bosses, because you get a lot more essence modifiers on your bosses.

Very helpful video thank you

very cool guide, i recently discovered your videos and im very impressed :D I love how at the end you said you can farm a headhunter in an afternoon, a 5div item ;) haha but i know what you meant

You definitely got a new subscriber 🎉❤

League mechanics don't work with Calcification, but Masters do, Einhar's Beasts could be sometimes turned into essences long before 3.24, I believe the sulphite-hoarding monsters that spawn near Niko's Sulphite node with Guarded Hoards also can be turned into essences so there's an alternative if You don't like running Alva

Big thanks for that strat

If the cost of ritual is low, I think that it would be the best, just buy vessels and go for it OR camp in sanctum. At a point, when fodder strategies become too relevant, the old high investment ultra volatile returns stuffs get very good.

Damn. Embarrassing I'm the last 3 comments here but... I started swapping out the 2 Scarab of Essences with 2 Scarabs of Adversaries. I'm averaging about 40 collected Deafening essences per map. That's before upgrading any of the shrieking I've found. I've had 3 out of maybe 8 maps drop over 50 deafenings. Really love this strat!

do i need to chisel and alch these maps at the chance to get more rares or can i just keep them how they are?

Hi. great video! Maybe I missed something but, how does niko nodes help with farming essences? thanks

Just an fyi because of you I have started to mess with mechanics I did not touch ever such as Alva or Betrayal my favourite poe creator at the moment keep it up.

Why do you take the essence nodes at the bottom left? Doesn't more essences per monolith mean less chance to duplicate the deafening one on the boss, which is what matters?

Well done!

hi! im new to the game and is currently on tier 9 maps w a slayer cyclone build but i dont feel like i can go far with this build so i was just curious, what build were u using in the demo and how is your move speed soo fast. ty!

I'm doing a simmilar strat. I'm farming Incursion because I am trying to get my hands on Slavedriver's Mitts for my trap build, and traps are pretty good for essences IMO.

This is a ton of fun to run! I do have to portal into town during a map to clear my full inventory of essences :D Luxury problems!

Just tried it tonight! Worked great! I got 30+ essences even without Alva,…I didn’t know she can’t spawn in some maps. 😢 either way great video, thank you!

Would an high pack size (say 40%+ from a corrupted map) plus the calcification scarab result in more monsters trapped in essences?

Hey, thanks for the strat. I'm curious about corrupting essences now though. I've done essences in the past, but this league, and with this strat, I'm not having any luck corrupting them. I haven't seen a Horror, Delirium, Hysteria, or Insanity. Am I just unlucky or was something changed I'm not aware of? Thanks!!

How are you sustaining maps? I run out of t6 promenade so fast lol and I don't drop any.

do u bulk sell essence tab on tft? or single sell every essence?

this specific to Alva or are there other mechanics the rare tech works with? Was thinking of adding legion to get a few splinters while farming essence

Is Alva just not appearing anymore? Since yesterday I cannot find Alva in my maps at all, and I have a 96% chance of her appearing with all the other mechanics blocked. Not sure if it's a bug or I did something wrong but she just refuses tibappear at all, plus only seeing maybe 1 essence appearing in any maps now

i know this is a bit late but for those struggling with the final boss if you do maps that have a totem final boss it will be much easier as they dont move and dont have any big dmg long range attacks

did they change how strongbox monsters are also natural inhabitants of the map and so rares on them can have essences with this strat?

Are you actually able to sell all types of essences in the long run? I´m trying to bulk sell the whole stash tab right now (have only been trying for 2 hours though) cause I´m kind of afraid to be left with a huge amount of unwanted essence-types no one will want to buy. :P IF all of them sell though, then im in awe of how well this Strat is working. Had a blast doing it today so thx for that already! :D

Maybe it is due to this strategy becoming more popular, but Scarab of Calcification are insanely expensive right now (april 9). Also scarab of adversaries are around 5c each right now.

will this work with only a 4 slot map device? I guess you'd drop the Adversaries scarab, right?

My alva is not spawning when juiced with scarab. She appears when not juiced. What am I doing wrong?

Hello, can I change Farm Incursion to Destroy? I don't really like running farm incursions.

Any thoughts about dropping scarabs and adding beasts? You could drop adversaries for a bestiary of the herd.

will harvest rares drop essences with this strat? Thank you for your video!

Eternal Torment (Atlas passive notable) could possible work here? converting haunted pack leaders into rares.

What about map rolling? Have to use chisel's, pack size matters etc?

it really is a pretty good and it netted me a lot of essences but selling them is pretty time consuming when listing each individual type of essence, still gonna use it though!

A few questions, does rolling more rare monsters, twin bosses generate more essences, and does rolling on higher tier maps generate more higher tier essences? Also, have you tried the ghosted rogue/unique scarabs that pairs with ritual and blood vessels or is that just streamer bait?

I was farming essence, but it felt like half the time whenever i ran into a juicy essence monster, it wouldn't drop any essences. I think one of the new atlass nodes or scarabs was bugging out, dont know if they fixed it yet.

Hi, this strat is really good, but i have one problem, in my incursion i don't have any essence monsters. I cant find the problem, did you know what can it be?

What's the return without using calcification? I'm fine making like 4/5 div/hr. I just want to mindlessly blast and make currency and not worry about trading for scarabs. Like, is it fine using 4 essence scarabs + map device?

Essence was and will always be my strat for Poe xD, Go in kill stuff go out repeat (little preparation but nothing big) get bunch of essence and afk wathcing something on 2nd screen selling that how I played poe for the last 3 leagues

Also, what do you think of the 'domination scarab of terrors', you can get 1 shrine for 1 atlas point and another one guaranteed for 5 more. Meaning 2 bosses, that in theory would have all the mods of the map boss which would include essence mods?

Does map tier depends on this strat? like higher tier more essences will have mob?

the rares in incursioin being upgraded didn't get changed? wanna try the strat

This strategy seems very strong and your video is very good but man that scarab is expensive. Do you think there is a way and if is worth it to try it without that scarab? I'm already doing Alva is not that hard, only the RNG is annoying as hell.

so does the map mod that increases rare size, does that mod happen before the duplicates and alvas. anyone test if its worth it to roll for?

"Also tape, i'm 1000 years old" This made me lol :D And it also hit home 😢

I think Eternal Torment node on atlas would be good. What do you think?

I have a question that which tier of map is the lowest to farm essences? And also do white map work for farming?

I'm not getting any essences from alva incursion....am I doing something wrong?

Now that this doesnt work on the new patch is there anything we can replace alva for and still see similar results?

Am I okay running these maps white or blue, I think juicing them too much will be a bit lethal for me at this stage. Or I can take a few alva nodes off to guarantee Niko (Need more atlas points).

23:00 so I wasn't tripping, I've lost several 5/6 essence mobs because I was messing around with aflames and never realized that is what caused the bug.

You could also roll maps with alterations untill you get area contains two unique bosses, that will boost the essence drops per map by alot!

i see a lot less deafenings in t16 than you in t6. I have your atlas and scarabs. Is it due to map level or just bad rng? Also, in 2/4 of my alva incursions, theres no essences monster

Dose this strat still work the calci scarab gone sky rocket with price. Btw they nerf all the strat rn so what is the profit per hour of this strat rn ?

do we use remnant of corruptions on essences, if so how ?

Not sure if you mention this but several times I've had trapped mobs with muey essences and when they pop I get nada. Read that it was a known issue if you Allfame them. Not all mobs, but probably the best ones :-/

What's the 200% scarab on unique monster kill for? Architects?

How to i get bulk t6 strands? they sell for 20-25c each and running the t3 with a voidstone does not work.

My Alva isn't getting Essences mobs. Any idea what's going on? I am using the exact strat in this. Edit: Ignore me. Just had a random map or two as my first maps where Alva didn't spawn rare mobs in even one of her things. It was super odd.

Thanks man, my essence tree was all over the place, one question, why is niko so important? I kinda stopped playing on Harbinger league im so lost lol.

i have one main question how much you can scale this down price wise. you recommend pretty expensive scarabs (at least for me). So for a person who has lets say 200c total and a build which can barely complete a t16 map is this even viable? I'm a new player and i don't have much so not sure how to judge this. Fully juiced version looks like it requires a very strong build and a lot of starting capital. Is a boss with 10 essences on it even killable for a regular player?

alva temple mob no longer can be essence latest patch ? , How can I improve ?

how do you get your flasks used and regenerated like this with no mageblood :O

Seems like recent patch killed the interaction of calcification scarab and alva's incursions, so the strategy suffers a lot. But we have the new scarab now. An update needed fot the strategy. It has provided some good currency for me since 1st week of the league and I want to adapt to new patch

im still on the mid build and struggling with the dps. love your updates tho.

is there a updated atlas tree after the patch notes ?

Can someone explain how Alva works in this strategy? I'm a new player and don't understand the mechanic

alot of times im not getting alva in my map even tho theres 96% chance. do u know why that might be.

my alva rooms are not spawning essences, what am i missing? subbed btw, great vid

Calcification Scarabs are kind of expensive for me right now. Can this strategy be done without them while still maintaining good profits?

You're right, im dumb lol, ty for the video I'll have to try this

Very nice

prices are over 75c per its about 87c to 101c, though realistically you would have to buy it at around 97c a pop now, i don't have the spreadsheet so idk if this is even still worth it or not at the time of writing this comment,

Try the memories. If you corrupt the rouge exiles they dupe :)

Btw do you stream?

Oof i remember the raid boss essences in kaladra? Hearing essence stacked bosses scares me

Any chance you're a fan of Ed Bolian of Vinwiki fame? I see you fancy yourself a "shrewd negotiator."

which map tier should i choose?

You don't corrupt Misery Dread Scorn Envy?

Hi dude, could you please let your filter here for us who are trying to do this strategy? Awesome content btw

How do you sustain yellow maps with a completed atlas?

Hey hey! Gladly switched to your strategy, feels good so far, very chill. But ran into a problem: i can't get any value out of alva's temple bp. I checked many guides how to run it, i memorize needed rooms, always connecting as much as possible rooms through the temple, i understand swap and upgrade room part. But i failed like 8+ temples already, am i stupid retard or something? I tried swapping all rooms, tried upgrading all rooms(when no needed rooms to chose), tried mixing it. No matter what, i don't get needed room more than once per temple, ends up with t2, even when i have t1 of needed room already at starting fresh temple. Is there a way to navigate to needed room to upgrade it that im not aware of or is it completely random?

i invested 20 maps after finished i earned 21D, minus cost 11D which profit 10D. Am i doing something wrong?

how i can sustain my map where i want to farm

Does this still work? It seems like the essences are worth almost nothing.

Hi. What is this build? Thankyou

he will look back at the tape... :D me too, man.. me too :)

Excellent video and breakdown, I've been wanting to do some essences but was scared off earlier by the calcification price. Something a lot of people don't consider is ease of liquidation. I've been doing well on blight but it's hard to sell everything whereas essences you can unload very quickly after your session.

how do we obtain t6 maps in bulk reliably?

The problem is 50% of the essence is not sellable, you need to use poe stack or wealthy exile and bulk sell it and to do that ya need huge ammounts of it

I just try this strategy fully juicing a map and it’s definitely not worth it because most over 30 chaos orbs to run the map while not making that much at all

How many Atlas Points are necessary to start with that strategy you would say?
