U4GM POE Guide: How to Maximize Profit with Map Scarabs

[jeanbb]

Mapping is the bread-and-butter of POE endgame, and optimizing your Atlas for sustain and profit is crucial for long-term currency farming.

Choose high-value maps such as Crimson Temple, Defiled Cathedral, and Cemetery for div card farming and monster density. These maps drop cards like "The Apothecary" or "The Patient," which translate into high returns.

Utilize the Atlas Passive Tree to specialize in specific farming strategies. For example, focusing on strongboxes, shrines, and essence nodes can stack profitable mechanics into every run.

Map device crafts from Kirac, like Beyond or Domination, are worth investing in for chaos- and divine-equivalent loot. Pair these with sextants and scarabs for maximum output.

Sustain your map pool by targeting map duplication passives and completing adjacent maps for bonus drop chances. Favor maps that are easy to run fast and can be chained with voidstones.

Use Awakened Sextants to roll desirable mods like "Pack size" or "Extra monsters with a currency reward." Combining this with Scarabs can lead to extremely valuable runs.

Delirium and Beyond work well together in dense maps. If your build is capable, this combination offers overwhelming chaos and divine drop potential.

Run corrupted maps when possible—they count for Atlas completion and often offer additional boss fights and rewards. Corruption also adds layers of RNG that can work in your favor.

In short, planning your maps before running them, investing in the Atlas, and combining synergistic mechanics is the best way to ensure both sustain and steady income.
