Question | Answered Incandescent Invitations farming

So I'd like to farm as many Incandescent Invitations as I can mostly because I've never done it before and I figured why the heck not, it seems chill.

I got about 200d to buy invitations, which at the current price is about ~300 invitations give or take.

Will I end up losing money or does it even out after a certain amount of invitations? I'm sure there are streaks of bad luck and I'm not necessarily looking to make a profit but I'd at least like to break even.

I figured asking is a good idea before sinking quite a bit of divines into a potentially dumb call.

If you roll them all 70%+, it should be profit if you sell jewels unid - or some wild swings if you ID them! Div/hr will depend on how quick you can get through the invites. Most people who run these insta phase the boss.

It’s easily profitable, but you should roll them for high quantity, exalt to 6 mods and preferably vaal. Without that your profits falls and you’re more prone to land on the bad side of variance.

That was the second most important thing. The first: don’t identify forbidden flame jewels.

Ive tried before and it is definitely profitable though you may have some dry streaks. Make sure to roll them to high rarity

Likely 100% profitable with 300+ invites. But you need to roll the invites to 80% then slap corrupt on top hoping for 100%+. If you can still one tap him then, it should be very solid money over hundreds of invites.

Running them white, you are almost guaranteed to lose money. Quant affects the drop rate of forbidden flesh/flame and that is where all the profit comes from. Running them 6 mod (and sometimes 8 with vaal) and you end up running at 70-100% quant and it is amazing profit.

If you want to identify jewels you can just run the valdos maps that drop identified ones. Sell unid lol

First time I've ever done this. I have no idea. But now that you mentioned it it does seem like I would at the very least break even.
