How to Farm Divine Orbs Fast in PoE 3.21
Dear exiles, I will share Big Ducks' useful farming guide with you today. This guide is about How to Farm Divine Orbs Fast with the New Breach.
Strategy
Note: If you do not have full atlas points drop the delirium fog nodes, followed by the delirium chance nodes and the exarch progress nodes. If you have fewer points than that, focus on finishing your atlas instead of doing this strategy.
This is a Stream of Consciousness strategy, so it doesn't involve doing any juicing whatsoever besides your atlas tree. You can use free procs from the Shaping the Mountains/Skies or use Essence on the map device.
The main focus of this strategy is to churn through maps quickly, focusing on the main loot-generating components.
Those are:
Deliriums
Essences
Improved Trials (Golden Border)
Map Boss
You still want to kill everything that comes near you. However, you do not need to worry about seeking out small packs or 100% clearing the maps.
If you want to focus on a singular map type, set all of your favored map slots to it or potentially 50/50 split one other solid map directly connected and then buy maps to fill the downtime.
Focus on gathering large amounts of the basic items (scarabs, delirium orbs, essences, invitations, boss maps, legion keys, etc.) and sell them in bulk for an upcharge.
Your goal should be gathering enough currency to exit this strategy as quickly as possible and move to a higher investment strategy.
Atlas Tree
This Atlas strategy is mainly focused on generating as many monsters in a Delirium Orb's map as possible. We do this through Legion/Abyss/Breach/Harbinger/Searing Exarch.
Note: Imagined Pursuits gives you a +1 count to your Delirium rewards, so you should try to finish the boss off later in the map if you are not trying to cheese altars.
Map Options
Dunes (layout)
Cemetery (div cards)
Investment Options
You should relatively frequently (every few hours or each day) check your margins on purchasing all of this juice to see how much you are making.
It is important to adjust your strategy to the cost of entry and try different levels of investment if it feels like the current one isn't working.
Sell all items in bulk for a decent upcharge to get the most out of your time.
Abyss Map Device Mod
Delirium Orbs: 80% is the safe bet for time/money, but if you have Headhunter or are on a very fast farming character, you can do 100%.
Skittering or Divine are going to be the best options. However, fine and cartographers are good. I wouldn't put a lot of juice into these.
Scarabs
Any Legion Scarab (Gilded is best)
Any Harbinger Scarab (Gilded is best)
Rusted Breach (we don't care about splinters)
Polished Abyss (we don't care about stygian spires)
Sextants
Area Contains an Additional Abyss
Area Contains an Additional Breach
Optional Sextants but Powerful:
Delirium Bars Fill Faster
Mysterious Harbinger
They are extremely expensive for what they do unless you use a very geared farming character (Headhunter etc.). It is hard to justify the cost beyond these random roll ones that add monsters into the zone.
Legion
There is a legion duration node near Protracted Battle that you can take if you have issues fully clearing all the monsters you would like to kill in time. Focus on opening large chests -> unique bosses -> rare monsters -> everything else.
Abyss
Abyssal Depths are almost completely useless, as the gear dropped is almost never worth it. Focus on killing the mobs at the main pits and moving on.
Breach
If you are having issues clearing all of the Breach mobs in time, you can take the Heavy Breach node to help with this but don't get too hung up on it.
Harbinger
Sometimes Harbinger mobs will get "bugged" and stop summoning things. It is not worth spending the time to go seek out the one little mob floating around somewhere to activate them. Remember that we only care about the mobs they spawn, not the loot they drop.
Searing Exarch
Make sure to take the upgraded Soul of Abberath and be careful with modifiers your character cannot handle. Focus on taking the Quantity of Items Dropped, %Chance to drop Sextants/Chaos/Eldritch Currency, %Chance to Duplicate Currency/Scarabs/Div Cards.
Here is the ending of this farming guide. I hope this guide will help you exiles a lot.
