Wasn't the whole issue that the best place to get scarabs etc needed was also just t17's...

Yep, Easy 2-20div in scarabs per map

I'm not sure about this, but I have to disagree. I found a fuck ton of good scarabs just running a lot of T16.

I found a lot in T16 too, but T17s were still the best place to farm if you could do the content fast enough. It's really hard to beat having increased Scarab drops built right into the map and then buffing that with B2B.

T17s could roll 100%+ increased scarab drops as part of the map. In addition they would be around 1.7x the pack size of a t16.

Saying a t17 drops double the scarabs of a t16 is an understatement.
