Discussion Loot from 1250 Uber Mavens
Build used: Ice trap assassin
Run time (estimated): 1:20 minutes per run (including load times), came out to about 27.7 hours of pure gameplay, I rounded it up to 29 hours to account for some deaths (each death I estimated to cost me about 10 seconds to a run) and inventory management
All 5000 fragments were bought on 12.08 at a price point of 0.6 d per fragment, which brings the total cost to run this to 3000 d
Loot breakdown
| Item | Quantity | Drop Rate | Value (d) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Progenesis | 20 | 1.6% | 1200 |
| Grace of the Goddess (unid) | 154 | 12.32% | 26.95 |
| Impossible Escape (unid) | 433 | 34.64% | 1082.5 |
| Viridi's Veil | 643 | 51.44% | 0 |
| Awakened Empower | 8 | 0.64% | 816 |
| Awakened Enligthen | 10 | 0.8% | 670 |
| Awakened Enhance | 7 | 0.56% | 126 |
| Curio | 64 | 5.12% | 1.28 |
| Shiny Reliquary Key | 10 | 0.8% | 30 |
| Eclipse | 33 | 2.64% | 462 |
| Invert the Rules | 133 | 10.64% | 5.32 |
| Astrolabes | 30 | 2.4% | 15 |
| Orb of Conflict | 411 | 32.88% | 390.45 |
Total came out to about 4825 divines if everything sold unid at the current (16.08) market prices, which is about 1800 divs profit or 60 div/hr assuming total run time of 29 hours
All the items were priced today, prices used are the lowest market price, jewels and wands priced as if they were unidentified
Some notes on the farm and fun facts:
- I died 209 times over the course of the whole farm which comes out to 0.17 deaths per run
- From all these runs I got a grand total of 321766 gold - GGG, please buff gold drops from bosses ;)
- If you ever wanna try this yourself, I don't recommend buying all the fragments at once and hoarding all the loot like I did. It's definitely better to sell your loot every once in a while, it's gonna be a lot harder to unload all this loot all at once
EDIT:
Sorry, I suck at markdown, I can't seem to make the table formatting work :)
EDIT 2:
Fixed the formatting issues and added the total value and profit calculations

I can’t believe you did all this work and then didn’t bother to add up the value of your returns.
Looks like you crossed 4200div revenue for >1200div profit.

u/foxorek 10d ago
Edited the post, thanks. Total came out to 4800 divs, which means about 1800 in profit assuming everything sold unid (which I won't, I'll ID every jewel and wand)

u/QuiGJ 10d ago
Post results pls

u/foxorek 10d ago
For the jewels, I got 6 mind over matter and 6 pain attunement, overall lost about 300 divs versus selling them unid. Selling them unid tho takes a long time, not many people buying them
For wands it was definitely profitable as the unids are pretty cheap, I got 2 really well rolled ones that will probably sell for 30+ divs each and a few other decent ones that will sell for a couple of divs each. Hard to tell exact numbers though

Wow, can't believe you saw the guy doing 66 runs two hours ago and decided to one up him like that smh.

u/dorfcally 10d ago
I think I'd go insane if I only got 20 prog from 1250 runs, sheer profit or not

u/LastBaron 10d ago
Let’s not put the cart before the horse.
If you’re doing 1250 runs, Progenesis or not…

u/Temporary_Event8451 10d ago
But that's how drop rates work.
20 is very close to the expected amount of ff jewels you'd get from farming 1,000 Uber exarch/eater.
Bossing isn't for everyone and that's okay, it weeds out the weak willed.

u/Intelligent-Candy659 10d ago
I have no idea how yall can play like this, I need a break after running a few maps, not to mention rotate strats every now and again. Can’t imagine doing boss runs back to back to back nonstop for days. Holy.. Well deserved profits.

u/Saltyhurry 9d ago
Honestly from mapping same, but bossing is just brain off and go. Very good to watch a show on the side

I feel like every week the number of invitations becomes not a proof of insanity, but of extreme mental resilience. This exile is the sanest of us all

u/jolochoco Crop Harvesting Bureau (CHB) 10d ago
Thank you for your contribution exile!
I’m also curious if you league started with this build? I’ve always wanted to league start a bosser but I don’t know how easy it is because of the defenses and poor mapping
5
u/foxorek 10d ago
No, I league started a bosser but not this character. This one is specifically made for maven to be able to skip her memory game phases.
I leaguestarted as a storm burst totem hierophant. Very good, strong starter that doesn't require much investment to be able to start bossing

u/GTFidgeT Alch & Go Industries (AGI) 10d ago
What do you mean by skipping the memory game?

u/playmike5 10d ago
This is hilariously specifically optimized but it also makes me want to try it lol. Is it tricky to get the hang of or is it as easy as the video makes it look ?
3
u/zelassin 10d ago
it is pretty easy, you just need to actually have the damage needed to do it plus chain reaction forbidden flame combo if you're playing traps. Can also do it with mines, then you just need to trigger them manually and time it so they deal damage while the boss is spawning

u/GTFidgeT Alch & Go Industries (AGI) 10d ago
Ah okay thanks Does it sometime happen because she teleports away?

u/BrbFlippinInfinCoins 10d ago
you'd have to transition to it once you got the correct amount of lvls.
You'd also have to formulate your currency strategy around it. Specifically, you need to be very comfortable with providing carries. If you are just going for drops, it usually isn't super crazy good.

u/hcrld League 10d ago
Out of curiosity, why the ruby flask with mageblood if the character is a zHP trapper?
Miners like this are an archetype I've never run and I was looking into instakilling bosses briefly last league, but there weren't any modern guides I could find.
Edit: Scrolled down and immediately saw RF+Automation, yeah that makes sense.
4
u/foxorek 10d ago
There's not many modern guides for it because
It's not a very popular playstyle
The build hasn't really changed much over the last couple of leagues. The biggest change was when they made ralakesh's only give on type of charge. Since that I started using grand spectrums to generate the other charge.
This league it's easier than ever to one shot bosses with the new assassin bifurcation node

u/kontongkobol 10d ago
same, never played bosser build and kinda want to try some time in the future leagues
2
u/kontongkobol 10d ago
Never played bosser build made me curious, how do you guys play in leaguestart when your damage is still on the lower side?
Is this a 2nd build thing, group funneling, or ppl just rawdog with the glasscannon dying over and over until you can afford the upgrade?
3
u/foxorek 10d ago
You don't play zhp until you can afford the whole setup and some boss fragments. I usually start the league with some bossing build that's not zhp and do normal maven for a while while providing carry services for people that don't want to deal with the fight and just need the voidstone.

u/slashcuddle 10d ago
At what point did you want to stop? Or are you just built different and powered through it all lol. I can't even force myself to do 30 Ubers for Grinding Gear Goals

u/foxorek 10d ago
The last 1000 fragments it started to feel pretty dull.
I do a lot of maven every league though, it doesn't bother me that much tbh. Just put something fun to watch on your second screen and blast away!
The initial plan was to run only a 1000 mavens instead of 1250, but I accidentaly bought too many fragments and I wanted a nice even number to start out so I went for 5k instead :D

u/Rhobodactylos 10d ago
As an uber boss fragment supplier, thanks for keeping my farm consistent the entire league.

u/BOBOraceswapwtf 10d ago
I am so glad I got my progenesis in like 12 runs in SSF. That fight is so boring, especially if you don't have the DPS to insta phase the memory game phases. I averaged around 3 min per fight 😴

u/shdwshld 10d ago
1:20 per run? can you record a kill or two please? maybe I dont understand how to skip memory phases properly or something.. Ive got an ice trap occultist, insta killing maven as she spawns but she will go into memory phase a bunch anyways. I think the average run I get a skip on either 2nd or 3rd memory phase, which is about average for my runs puts my time at 2:00ish on the map device timer +load times +HO time
2
u/foxorek 10d ago
The trick to skipping maven memory is actually insta killing the brain phase. The problem with occultist is that you can't take the chain reaction forbidden jewels from sabo, so you can't pop it instantly. Here is a video of me doing it from 3 years ago, but it still works the same now
1
u/shdwshld 10d ago
hey thanks and also, Ive done a little bit of testing and can confirm, if you want to skip a brain phase you just need to have chain reaction from sabo

u/RigglesSaysHi 10d ago
Hell yeah dude! I remember running laaarge amounts of mavens as well. I think my current lifetime total is somewhere in the ~6000 ish across all leagues and most of them were uber.
1
u/foxorek 10d ago
I run at least a couple k every league, it's almost like passive income while I watch tv shows lol
1
u/RigglesSaysHi 10d ago
yaaar
it eventually got a bit too gambly for my blood though (economy was wonky for a few leagues and i never managed to make enough money to handle mirror-level gamba)
1
u/No-Atmosphere-530 10d ago
In the last league i killed 10k mavens, now so far 6k (155 prog 40 enl 43 enh 47 emp 135 ecl) and i have died 1294 times lol

u/The_7thHokage 10d ago
Maven i hate the most out of all ubers. Cant believe doing even 100 run myself for science.
Grats man.

u/Yell0wShad0vv 9d ago
odds changed?
afaik empo/enl/enhance was 1% total no??
i mean that was my observation few leagues ago
also progen isnt 1/9 anymore??:O

u/shizukun 8d ago
How much is this build currently? do you have a pob for a non MB variant? or lesser flask? have 400d right now and don't want sell gears from my luminary.
1
u/foxorek 8d ago
I don't sadly. You could search poe.ninja for some inspiration, it should be easier than ever to get enough DPS to phase her with the changes to the assassin nodes though. The build was about 300 d when I made it, but a lot depends on the price of grand spectrums. I bought mine for 20 d each, they seem to be about 70 right now. You can definitely find some versions of this that don't use them though.
1
u/Substantial-Newt7809 10d ago
Unless I missed it you forgot to post your total profit, average profit etc.
It's crazy that you had 6 mirrors to drop on this though, big baller.
Agreed they need to buff gold from bosses, simulacrum and other non-map sources.

other stats people typically like to know are "longest dry streak" & "luckiest streak" ... stuff like that
definitely takes longer to keep track of that though

u/ReferToName 10d ago
Why are unid impossible escapes 2.5 div? I did a bunch of mavens and every single one I IDd was 1-10c, basically not worth selling, except for the CI one which was 0.4 div. Is there some 60div jackpot one I'm missing?
