I've been meaning to catch up with Delve, I last did it in 3.21 and was surprised at the profitability even when delving fairly casually.

I've been delving between 160ish and 200 because it's i83 and spawns all the bosses sure the smaller nodes are not as rewarding you do get things just not as much or higher tiers but dam a simple vaal boss kill was netting 9 div or adorned fragment or 20 div for a map ... sure prices have changed in past 48 hours div are crashing but still if all you care for in my opinion is free xp/monies no need to go above 200 your just risking being killed deeper you go so your risking xp and I'm lvl 99 and 73% I get about 5-10% xp per sulphite cap of 65k depending on how long the runs are/and how many rares are spawning at the nodes but any depth in delve can make you easy profit

You're welcome! That was the goal here, I mostly just casually delve myself and in recent leagues it's felt like a very accessible way to make currency. Is it the most money/h? Probably not, but it's something different and you do make solid profits.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Delve is a good old reliable mechanic for me every couple leagues I come back to it. I'm always surprised at how much you can make early with delve too, the map nodes/cities print T14-16 maps!

@@Tenkiei ty for info

The bottom of the border isn't red.

You have to go deep, probably at least 350? (That number varies per person) So yes fractured walls are bait if you're not deep.

For this strategy you don't need a build that's catered to delving, just something that can do T16s, guardians & pinnacle bosses (ideally deathless) will be fine.

@@Tenkiei what about a build that can go till 1000 depth for example?

​@@MrArchatozthere are many other videos on delving and builds to do it. Check out Connor Converse or one mana left. He's pretty much an expert

I hope not, I think Delve serves a purpose that's quite different from Affliction atm.

I'm confused, how are they similar? Can you explain?

Lol no

Lmao, they won’t do that. Delve has way much more content and less random shit. Also affliction is only good for map juicing while delve is an entire different thing compared to bossing and mapping

how the hell Affliction off all things is similar to Delve?! If anything, TOTA was similar. Especially how scaling worked in that mechanic. This was the second mechanic in the game that could be scaled way beyond the natural "level 83" ceiling of almost all other league mechanics. Because you reached 83 at about 250 rating, yet the actual rating cap was 2,000.

I wasn't using a Delve tree in the video, just highlighting the nodes.

wdym "wrong"? All Hands makes 0 sense if you're using scarabs (which you should, basic Niko Master missions are highly inefficient) and blocking content doesn't do anything either. Minion builds are not better or worse for this then any other build. If anything, I'd not run minions in delve as regen when you're not attacking yourself is always a bit annoying to figure out

I'm wearing the Sentinel Overlord supporter set, and Transcendence Righteous Fire. I don't think anything else on my character is a paid MTX. The rest is either Flask effects from my mageblood, or MTX I earned through Challenges/got for free from random boxes.

Who cares if ppl spend money on a game they like?

Who cares? It doesn't give them an advantage and it shows they support a game they like playing
