Blight has been pretty chill, I also found ~50 abyssal jewels I haven't priced, and the usual corpses / allflames that are current leaguemechanic so not included. Dropping the expensive scarab is also an option, you'll just get more blighted maps instead of ravaged. Next up is Ultimatum! Thanks for watching!

I don't always build towers, but when I do, they are always a Chilling Tower MK III and a Seismic Tower MK III next to each other (and never take them to level IV (4)).

For anyone looking to get into blight, you should avoid any map that has "aviod ailments" or "cannot be stunned" Prioritise Chilling and Stunning towers, leave both at tier 3. Put them on Choke points. Get the ring annoint for your Chilling Towers freeze enemies for 0.2 seconds. Then just place damage down once the choke points are covered. And there you go, thats how you do blighted maps without giga damage build.

spending a few hours to never have to worry about oils for the rest of the league alone seems pretty good for ssf/multi character enjoyers, while selling/using all the extra stuff along the way

As Sister Cassia feels my body grow warm in her embrace I her her call "You're making me nervous" as she writhes in the throes of passion. I temper my flame ensuring she reaches her peak first before dropping my oils in her crimson prison

One thing you can do with blight is to create a trade site search with a list of the anoints you want to use oil extractors on. Then throw all your anointed jewelry into a dump tab, make it public, run your search against your own account name. Then use that to separate out the good ones to extract.

what is your opinion about running without scarab drops ? the Unwavering Vision node ? is it worth combining with blight and have more mechanics at the price of scarabs ?

Dialed, great video, I love this series of all the league mechanics. Empy drops new/old meta strats in very simple terms that remind you of tricks/tips to currency making(choices why/how etc). Played most leagues since Syndicate and amazed little things I've forgotten over the yrs lol

The best thing about blight is that you don't need to invest into it. The big scarab feels like bait. I've been running this with Ritual so you can add 2 selectiveness scarabs. Blight is consistent currency, Ritual is your big money gamble mechanic. Been having tons of fun with it

What build is this? And how did he set it up so it just cast itself and didn't need to press a key to send the spell?

THE PORTAL SCROLL BIND IS INCREDIBLE I LOVE YOU

You can hold Alt while on the passive tree and it will show what oils it takes to unlock that passive. Its an option if you dont want to look outside of the game for amulet extractions

Does any know if blight scarab of oils stack?

Do blighted/ravaged maps respect favorited maps when they drop? if so would it not be worth favoriting them?

Blight is such a great thing to focus on at the beginning of the league if you are an average player. Blighted/Ravaged maps don't use your Atlas, so they are good even if you don't have much Atlas completion. The Atlas nodes can be gotten relatively quickly and once they are done you don't have to worry about any other mechanic until you want to. If your build or gear is trash (or you're just a tank), the towers will carry you no matter what (especially the node that increases tower damage while decreasing player damage). Blight will supply you with the oils you need for your anoints, oils for profit, bubblegum currency, the occasional divine or good fractured item, maps, essences, etc. It's a good source for a lot of things and is profitable even if you have potato skill level. Only real downsides I've run into are mobs getting stuck in Blight/Ravaged maps making your chase them down after pump is destroyed, it can be slow, it can be buggy, and especially this season it runs so poorly that you will be Slideshow Bob next to the pump for most of the mechanic unless you have a great computer. Highly recommend spell mastery that opens chests 25% of the time when you cast for less clicking. EDIT: I think like someone said in chat in the video, just doing the Blights in your maps is probably more profitable. Speed run them on a narrow map like Toxic Sewer to (hopefully) force a single lane, which will always reward you with oil chests. This plus extractors is good money.

When a regular map drops from Blight chest, does it take into account what favorite maps you have on your atlas? Or it is a complete random fiesta of maps that you would never run?

From my blight experience, almost half of real profit which one can spend, is from Extracting gamba. With altas tree you guaranteed 2 oiled jewelry, but on average it's 3-4 per map. I would say every 5th is worth risk, so one could say that every 5 maps you get two additional silver/gold oils.

I used to always league start blight to avoid trying to buy oils for the rest of the league. The actual blighted maps are really good to still get currency/exp on a support character; its a really easy way to get an aurabot to 90 or so on your own time with green oils. It solves the issue of playing support that is "what do I do when I'm the only one on?"

If you hide items (z by default I think), you can click the actual items that are on the ground to pick them up, instead of having to click the box that show up. This is nice for blight because everything drops in one tiny pile per cyst.

If you dont want to bother with towers but make sure you don't fail; get the chill towers freeze annoint on one of your rings and just throw down a lvl 1 chill tower on each lane. I've done this strat early league with a summoner build combined with Alva temple building and its insane money with just the polished and gilded scarabs.

Most realistic currency strat videos at the moment, keep em coming :)

early in the league blight rav maps went 5 for 1 div on tft, that made the strat feel alot better than now for me atleast

What was the reasoning behind not using chayula scarab in based or cringe episode breach?

I got 11 blight ravaged maps from one blight, I was able to keep reopening them lol

Blight has always been my favorite league mechanic. It never fails. It's extremely useful. Even if everyone pumps it during league start - you can just sit and wait and things will go up if you need currency. Ran blight for I don't know how many leagues now and I just enjoy it every time. It's very reliable currency and tends to just be very rewarding. Really wish they would address the fact that an autoclicker is mandatory unless you want to damage your hand though. Opening the chests with spells was a nice addition they did.

Blight is one of those "comfy food" mechanics that I pick no matter how profitable. And make my characters to be good at it without relying on towers. also what happened with div cysts? Those only drops stacked decks and no cards...

what is the link to your Price checking overlay?

Man, how come if I copy these strategies I don't even make a quarter of the currency :( Also just a warning for those wanting to try blight, selling oils is pain as you often have to sell it one at a time, and maps take a verryyyy long time to sell, sometimes they just don't sell at all. I still have 8+ T16 maps that I haven't got a single whisper for from a week ago. You can try TFT/wealthy exile but I wasn't getting many bites. One thing I would include in these reviews is how liquid the stuff is, because for a lot of people that don't play enough to get large bulk some stuff is very hard to sell

Should've run all blight-ravaged maps and see if a profit is there.

I love 6:26 - Blight be like that sometimes... :D

Why not both blight on the tree and blight on a scarab? Didn't ggg add the ability to have multiple cassias per map now?

When is Betray & Go?

Not sure if you read comments, but want you to know I appreciate your opinion on which farming strat is best this patch. I’ve tried a few and can’t land on one yet, but it’s nice to see someone try literally all of them.

Is there a way not to lag on blight maps ? I have even map going to 1 fps or crashing ( i have a 4080 super and a ryzen 7 7800x3D )

love theses vids shows whats good for someone who idk what todo later in the game

I love it how you barely stay serious while doing a commercial lol

is beyond mobs spawns on blight packs?

hey empy, im really curious, why do you walk on W?

When she asks for more: @9:13

9:37 - 9:45 gave me some serious „American dad“ grandpa flashbacks

Never though I was going to see Empy doing blight. It is always my starter.

I'm not sure avout current atlas, but previously you could get map dupe chance (pretty sure map drop chance would work as well) and get way more value trough even normal blighted maps. Especially with last season tained prices.

Finally he did the best mechanic in game.

What ring anoints he using?

Empy at the beach 5:30

add in heist its an extra free loot witth blight especially when u get the fully revealed blueprints!

How do you make exilence work? since necropolis started it won't let me link my account

Good tactic on blight is build a empowerment tower that power player instead tower and mow down everything with it if you strong. Then just put chill and stun towers all over the place XD

My first map using this strat dropped a Hinekora’s Lock after I completed the encounter. My Divines per hour is looking pretty good so far lol.

I'd like to see what comes out of the blight ravaged maps. they can be good

if you're gonna do the Blight Ravaged maps as a non-spellcaster you can totally just get a bodyarmor with the necropolis haunted modifier "your warcries open chests" and use call to arms + warcry for non-spellcasters. this might come at the cost of having an armor swap though (one for the map and one for looting.)

I think a lot of the profit from blight will come from running the blight (and ravaged) maps. Especially when you corrupt them for a chance to get tainted oil which holds a lot of value.

Theres a tool you can use to just ctrl c and it will overlay oil types from the annoint

really good video, i like the series!

My main issue with blight farming is you have to make tons of small sell to add up to profit most of the time. Occasionally you will get a big drop but its 10,000 small sells. To get money. I like it early league when small currency holds a lot of value. But not now.

blight may have replaced essences as the lowest-tier strategy (for the weakest builds) given the changes to essences. this makes sense to me because essences are a more dynamic market than oils and thus hold their value better. the problem with oils is that there are a finite amount of anoints any given player will ever need to make on their builds and no one is really anointing their blight ravaged maps with 9 golden oils. ....but maybe by the end of the league golden oils will hit 20c and it will be profit-viable to do so, at which point they'll jump in price and finally be worth selling :3

How to end videos? Button for slow fade to black filter while talking about something something cliffhanger.

At this point you might as well call the series "Still Haven't Decided On A Name".

How you ended it was fine. It actually made me remember to hit the like button just because it wasn't like a bot recording.

I needed this, thank you.

There is cast mastery which open chest when you use spell you can use it to open blight chest just by using skills no need to click one by one

good one of blight but u take all beyond someting atlas node if u take all increase effect node+ 8 mode corrupted map (whit effect) i am definetly sure profit will be double

I thought he was going to run the blighted maps as part of the experiment 😢

i am a blight farmer there 1 mistake on your calcs that i also made when starting out you exilence the bad oils your calc will be way off. you are not going to be selling anything under Crimson as a normal player unless you have a trading bot that can do all your trades 24/7 to be able to sell a 1/3C Teal Oil ect The best is to upgrade them to Crimson add it as a addon to your bulk blight maps (the normal blight maps not ravage so much) most of the blight farmers also filter out the bad oils as its allot of picking up and upgrading for no reason

6:28 the average poe player experience.

This strat will be nerfed, since its op when ghosting blight lanes in t17 maps with 5 man group

Can you create a series trying these strats on a tier 17 map? :)

Emp, Could you try to make Blight maps in the same quantity to see if it makes a profit or not? Great videos as always

2.5 hour to run but 1hour to extract juice . Good thing that u can sleep while def blight still a win

Shiverngm3 - This is you from the future future. Don't buy that watch in July on 2027. Trust me.

Empy you do such much testing for us, thanks a lot. I wanna give back and I only know how in one way, so have a banger on the house: Deadmau5 & Kaskade - I remember (Nautika Remix) Thats all I wanted to say, have a nice night.

Does anyone have experience target farming stranglegasp? Can it drop in maps or only bloghted maps?

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but when I ran 50 of these maps I didn't get a single ravaged blight map. Also, no one wants to buy blighted maps at all-- on TFT or on trade site, even offering at 85% of value. Maybe my filter was messed up, but I hardly got any jewelry that had gold/silver to extract. I paired Heist with this strat, and I think I made more from selling the contracts/blueprints than i did from the actual blight mechanic...

Blight is always really quite nice in the early days of the league. Some leagues I run blighted maps for the first 3 days or so, as all the oils from there are stupid expensive and the hassle of selling them 1by1 is not that big of a deal if they are worth something.

The bad part is that, most of it came from oil... and you dont really bulk-sell the oils .

Grab all oil you can upgrade it .

how does he use Exilence. Didnt they shit down servers?

Now do 50 Blight Ravaged Maps :D

Blights biggest issue, is that its blight

The only strat strictly limited by your PC's capacity to not blow up :v

some blight tower effect is extremely lag, which drive me away from doing blight.

Problem that i have is that Blight just completely lags me out..

Not looking forward to the incursion strat, is the one i use and i hoping people dont see it as better than what it is.

Cam wait for the Ultimatum video!!

Thanks for doing these videos on low investment strats for us poor people just wanting to vibe in hideout ♥

IMO do not bother with the annointed amulets.. just focus on the good 50/50(100/100) rings

Im newbie with feeezing totem build... this is the map i wanted for... lol more tower

7 minutes. Fresh af

Like, comment and subscribe if you havent. And don't forget to ding that bell. That's how you end KZfaq videos.

my PC can't handle this strat

I got an apothecary in t12:)))

Do ultimatum next. Its insane.

i will never understand why people dont play waste pool instead of toxic sewers for blight since it can drop the doctor...

why are you so wide at 9:51

Cool series

I just started running maps and I have yet to find Cassia =D It's crazy.

Honestly, they nerfed the stacked decks from blighted into the ground. Now each little note gives only 1 maybe 2 stacked decks. Before this league you got like 3-6 per little note. This tactic only pays really off, if you run the blight ravaged afterwards in speed mode, but because of the div card nerf, the main income from these is gone :/

sanctum pls

I mean, no one is going to buy the garbage scarabs or the chaff bulk. So realistically its like 8d an hour
