Key Takeaways:

  • Red altars provide higher-value currency rewards, while blue altars focus on low-tier currency drops.
  • Farming red altars is preferred unless your Atlas strategy requires high-tier map juicing.
  • Specific talent combinations can increase the chance of altar spawns and boost map pack size.
  • Jungle Valley, City Square, and Wandering Path are recommended maps for divine farming.

Understanding Eldrich Alters and Influences

In Path of Exile 3.23 Affliction, Aldrich altars offer a steady income for players farming tier 14+ Maps. These altars can spawn with additional minions and grant various bonuses. Red altars provide more valuable currency drops like Chaos Orbs, while blue altars focus on lower-tier currency like Orbs of Alteration and Chisels. However, the chance of obtaining Divine or Exalted Orbs from blue altars is quite low compared to red altars.

Choosing the Right Talents and Strategies

To optimize divine farming, players should prioritize certain talents and map strategies. Talents like Wrath of the Cosmos and Eldr Gaze offer increased damage but come with downsides. Increasing map pack size and chance of altar spawns are crucial for maximizing rewards. KapkanFrost provides detailed talent recommendations for red and blue altars, ensuring players make informed decisions based on their build’s power and survivability.

Recommended Maps for Divine Farming

Jungle Valley, City Square, and Wandering Path are highly recommended maps for divine farming. Jungle Valley stands out as it does not spawn a boss, eliminating boss modifiers on eldrich monsters and providing better mods. City Square allows for fast boss kills, followed by altar farming. Wandering Path synergizes well with high map pack size builds, amplifying the effects of small talent nodes. These maps can be combined with other league mechanics for additional rewards.

The Cost of Atlas Farming

While red altars offer lucrative rewards, it’s important to consider the trade-offs. Applying certain influences may prevent players from farming Maven or accessing specific boss encounters. Players should assess their build’s strength against bosses and determine if the focus is on farming the league mechanic or seeking boss-oriented rewards. Balancing these factors will ensure a successful league start and efficient divine farming.
