- 0:00All right, all seven. We're going to use
- 0:02an eight-mod map for this. Oh, nice.
- 0:04Opulent Rune. Okay, this map has to be
- 0:07juiced, dude. I mean, we're literally
- 0:09starting with an Ocular Rune. And this
- 0:11map had like what, like 12 of these?
- 0:12There's no way this is not good. This
- 0:13has to be insane, right?
- 0:17Chrome for no reason.
- 0:19Righteous Passage, Primate. Five Divines
- 0:22for that one? Wait, this map's going to
- 0:24be insane.
- 0:29Five Divines again?
- 0:32Two Divines.
- 0:34Brick Axe. Holy, this map is so good.
- 0:3817 raw Divines. We have four more. Oh,
- 0:42we have five more. These are two right
- 0:43here.
- 0:45Five Divines again? Six Divines? Oh my
- 0:48dude.
- 0:50Oh, another Divine.
- 0:55Three Divines, three Divines, Heavy
- 0:57Belt. Right, there's too much loot on
- 0:59the ground. I need to leave. This is
- 1:00lagging from the loot.
- 1:03Four more Divines.
- 1:06Seven Divines? Bro, what was this map?
- 1:10Holy. This is a 41 raw Divine map. Like
- 1:15these are all natural drops. None of
- 1:16them are guaranteed. Hey guys, so I want
- 1:19to make a video going over the best farm
- 1:21in the game, and that is Expedition. So,
- 1:24I put a lot of work into this. I also
- 1:25have a full Mowgli's written guide as
- 1:27well, and there is quite a bit here. I
- 1:29want to go everything over in this
- 1:30video, cuz yeah, it is quite a bit. So,
- 1:32first things first, you know, everything
- 1:34you need to know about the best farm in
- 1:36the game, and that is Expedition rare
- 1:37juicing. Do note, this farm can be
- 1:40extremely hard. Now, I'll go over the
- 1:41ways to lower the difficulty. Also, it
- 1:43wouldn't surprise me if GG nerfs this.
- 1:45This is relatively new. It was only
- 1:46buffed last Thursday. So, it's been in
- 1:48the game for about a week, and it's by
- 1:50far the best farm in the game. It's
- 1:51vastly superior compared to anything
- 1:53else once you learn it. So, But could
- 1:55adjust it mid-league. Who really knows.
- 1:57This guide will mostly cover how to use
- 1:59outer saga maps, which is slightly
- 2:01different than how you use a regular
- 2:03grand expedition maps, but they are
- 2:05pretty interchangeable. Your build has
- 2:07to be extremely strong on these maps. I
- 2:08highly recommend to have a headhunter
- 2:11character at the minimum. Low divine
- 2:13builds, low budget builds will struggle
- 2:14to this very high expedition juice. You
- 2:17can still do expedition on a lower
- 2:18budget character, but doing this much
- 2:20juice will just destroy your character
- 2:22if you are not prepared. Yeah, this is
- 2:24by far the hardest content currently in
- 2:26the game and the hardest we've ever had.
- 2:28But do note, not every map is hard.
- 2:30Majority of the maps, like 95% of the
- 2:32maps, are actually pretty easy, pretty
- 2:34tame. They aren't that bad. But some
- 2:36maps can be absolutely monstrous, where
- 2:39you can get rares auto attacking you for
- 2:4115,000 damage. And they also have like
- 2:44400, 500 million effective HP. So yeah,
- 2:48majority of the maps are fine. Some
- 2:50maps, when you get like really juicy
- 2:51maps, they can have absolutely insane
- 2:53rares, and that's where your build has
- 2:55to be good to handle it, or you are
- 2:57going to lose the map. You also really
- 2:59want some good element protection.
- 3:00Freeze and chill can be a big issue
- 3:01here. A spear of the ox, the golden
- 3:03charm is a good way to get this. It
- 3:05gives you both element help and slow
- 3:06reduction. If you don't know what I'm
- 3:08talking about, this right here, this is
- 3:09where I got past it. It's pretty cheap,
- 3:10it's like 10 divines. But it gives 20%
- 3:12DR, 50% reduced slow potency. You
- 3:14constantly get 50% chill, so making that
- 3:1650% chill go to 25% is quite useful. And
- 3:19you get some more element threshold. You
- 3:21recommend if your build does struggle
- 3:22with chill. And most importantly, this
- 3:24is a high skill and knowledge mechanic.
- 3:26Going in blindly or just being new to it
- 3:28will result in like mediocre or bad
- 3:30profit. You just will have to learn over
- 3:32time, although hopefully this guide does
- 3:34help you. But first things first, let's
- 3:36look at the ways to actually juice the
- 3:37mechanic. So as for the tablet setup,
- 3:39we're using three x of the plus one
- 3:41tablets. So, you're going to want three
- 3:43tablets that have two additional random
- 3:46map modifiers. This is the most
- 3:47important stat, and then you want one
- 3:49other good prefix. So, you can get
- 3:51increased number of rare monsters, you
- 3:53can get monster rarity, you can get item
- 3:55rarity, you can get monster effectiness.
- 3:57You want at least one other good prefix,
- 3:59in my opinion. Increased number of rare
- 4:00monsters and monster effect are the best
- 4:02prefixes you can get. I wouldn't invest
- 4:05into these three-mod tablets unless you
- 4:06have a really good outer saga maps. So,
- 4:08something like, you know, all runes are
- 4:10six or all runes are seven. If it's
- 4:12anything less than that, I wouldn't use
- 4:13three-mod tablets cuz it's not really
- 4:14worth the cost. And personally, yeah, I
- 4:16wouldn't pay more than like 10 divines
- 4:18per tablet for a two-mod tablet. It's
- 4:21three mods, you know, 12 to 15 divines
- 4:22is fine. As for cheaper and easier
- 4:24tablets, uh just going to get two-mod
- 4:26tablet with increased number of rare
- 4:27monsters and monster effect or monster
- 4:29rarity. So, you get two out of these
- 4:30three modifiers, will be good enough.
- 4:33This will be worse loot, but it will be
- 4:35far easier maps, and the tablets will
- 4:37also be way cheaper. So, these are
- 4:39pretty good to use on non-outer saga
- 4:40maps. As for the waystone setup, the
- 4:43best waystone setup you want is a
- 4:44eight-mod waystone with high
- 4:46effectiness. So, personally, the best
- 4:48map ever had, I dropped 41 raw divines,
- 4:51and that's not divines from the runes.
- 4:53This is raw divines dropped from
- 4:55monsters off the ground. It was 41. And
- 4:58this was from a pure effectiness
- 4:59eight-mod map with the exact tablets I
- 5:01just showed you. Yeah, I do believe
- 5:03eight-mod tier 15s with max effectiness
- 5:06is the way to go. With that said,
- 5:08monster rarity is also quite good. Item
- 5:10rarity is okay, and pack size you want
- 5:12to ignore. Um it just isn't really
- 5:14anything to the farm, as far as I can
- 5:15see. I don't think pack size actually
- 5:17increases the amount of monsters inside
- 5:19the runes, or at least not the rares or
- 5:20something. I'm not sure, but as far as I
- 5:22can see, pack size had no effect on the
- 5:24actual loot returns. So, I do think it
- 5:26is by far the worst modifier here. Tier
- 5:2816 waystones can also be okay, but they
- 5:31can be pretty expensive, and they aren't
- 5:32really needed anymore since you reach
- 5:34area level 81 anyway with tier 15 maps,
- 5:37because the Grand Expedition Atlas node
- 5:39gives you plus one area level. So, you
- 5:40get area level 81, rare stuff plus one
- 5:42level. So, you still drop area level 82
- 5:44exceptional bases with tier 15 maps. The
- 5:47cheapest option is just to make your own
- 5:4870% effective way stones with six
- 5:50modifiers and then corrupt. If you don't
- 5:52know, use one omen of chaotic monsters,
- 5:54chaotic quant, and a chaotic rarity.
- 5:56Activate all three, six mod your map,
- 5:58then chaos orb, you'll get a pure 70%
- 6:01monster effect way stone. And as to
- 6:03this, you can corrupt if you want. It's
- 6:04optional, but this is how you'll get
- 6:06eight mod. But yeah, that is what you
- 6:07want to run. These are by far the best
- 6:09maps. Although I do note, monster
- 6:11effectiveness will make the map harder.
- 6:13So, if you do want to make these maps
- 6:15easier, you can maybe do monster effect
- 6:17and monster rarity. Yeah, for the easier
- 6:19maps, use a chaotic quantity, chaotic
- 6:21rarity. This will give you a half and
- 6:23half map of monster effectiveness and
- 6:24monster rarity. This will make it easier
- 6:26and also is still quite lucrative if
- 6:28these full monster effect maps are a
- 6:30struggle. And of course, I would still
- 6:31corrupt it after for a chance at eight
- 6:33mod. Do note, if it does go to tier 14
- 6:35like this, you do want to vendor it. You
- 6:36don't want to run tier 14 maps, only
- 6:38tier 15 and up. As for the Atlas and
- 6:40master to use, this will be on the
- 6:41mobile links itself, so I won't take too
- 6:43much time here. You can just see all the
- 6:44points that I take right here. But to
- 6:45quickly go over it, we are using Jado,
- 6:48unexpected missions, Eastern knowledge,
- 6:50partial translations, and keen
- 6:51appraisal. Do not change any of these.
- 6:53You can also run Doryani, but I
- 6:55personally had way more success on Jado,
- 6:57and Jado is the one where I dropped 41
- 6:59raw divines. For Doryani, you can use
- 7:01evolutionary pressure, improved
- 7:03calibrations, careful for a procurement,
- 7:06and a volatile connections. As for
- 7:07expedition, uh the ones that matter is
- 7:09this on desert.
- 7:11All the other ones, you put these on
- 7:12one.
- 7:14And then this one here for three,
- 7:15increase quantity of items dropped by
- 7:17monsters per magic modifier. But that
- 7:19first one is also pretty good. Chance
- 7:21for remnants to be counted as affected
- 7:22by power runes. This can be nice as
- 7:24you're learning, but once you start to
- 7:25max in, number three is definitely the
- 7:27best choice. Also, this is another way
- 7:29to make the maps easier. Instead of
- 7:31using desert, you can choose forest.
- 7:32Desert drastically beefs up the monster
- 7:35effectiveness of your rare monsters. So,
- 7:37once again, if your build is on the
- 7:38weaker side, you can change this to
- 7:39forest, and that could will make the
- 7:41maps easier, and they will still be
- 7:43quite lucrative, but desert is the way
- 7:44to go if your build can't handle it.
- 7:46Then as for these nodes on the tree that
- 7:48actually matter, I use monster effect in
- 7:50this here. I think increased rare
- 7:51monster modifiers could be okay, but I
- 7:53do think monster effect is better.
- 7:54Monster effect here and then a monster
- 7:56effect for your desert as well. Nothing
- 7:58else on Atlas tree should matter, but
- 8:00you don't want the full Atlas tree
- 8:01completed cuz all the small nodes like
- 8:03you know, Tabula Rasa effect, increased
- 8:04number of rare monsters, rarity, they
- 8:06all do matter. Now, let's actually talk
- 8:08about the expedition itself, how to
- 8:09juice it and also give you some
- 8:10examples. So, Outer Saga. Ideally, you
- 8:13want to use them on four rumors that
- 8:15don't contain a boss such event.
- 8:16Essentially, bosses and unique rumors
- 8:18eat your expeditions because it is
- 8:20guaranteed a boss map instead of
- 8:21expedition map. It is fine to use Outer
- 8:23Sagas on a boss rumor if it has four
- 8:26other rumors. I'll show an example. But
- 8:28yeah, ideally you just don't use them on
- 8:29them. When correctly used, you can
- 8:31pretty much self-sustain your Outer
- 8:32Saga. This will be a bit RNG, but if
- 8:35you're averaging essentially five
- 8:36expeditions per Outer Saga, you should
- 8:38be able to self-sustain especially when
- 8:40you're doing rerolls. So, you can also
- 8:42move items in your inventory to see more
- 8:43rumors. So, let's go over this real
- 8:45quick. This is very very important for
- 8:47expedition juicing. So, as you can see
- 8:48here, this says Endless Cliffs, Star
- 8:51Drinker on our ruins. If you move any
- 8:53item in your inventory, this will
- 8:55change. Now it says Endless Cliffs,
- 8:57Wombat Risky and Something Fishy. So, we
- 8:59know there's at least five rumors on
- 9:00here if not more and I'll also link this
- 9:03down below, but it's also on my sheet
- 9:04here as well. It tells you exactly what
- 9:06each rumor is. I don't really care for
- 9:08the ratings whatsoever. This is good to
- 9:10know which one's a unique map and which
- 9:11one's a boss map. I also have it written
- 9:13down in the guide right here as well if
- 9:15you need to know for yourself. So yeah,
- 9:16you're looking for at least four normal
- 9:19rumors. So, any four of these is what
- 9:21you're looking for. So, we know at least
- 9:22Star Drinker is one boss here, but the
- 9:25other four rumors that we did get are
- 9:26regular maps. So, we can safely use our
- 9:29Outer Saga with our logbook on this and
- 9:31this is going to be at least four
- 9:33expeditions if not more. Like I said,
- 9:35you move an item in your inventory and
- 9:36this shuffles around and I'll show you
- 9:37more and more rumors. You can have like
- 9:39six rumors on your island rumors, and
- 9:42you want up to like 10 expeditions. It
- 9:44is RNG, you don't know how many you're
- 9:46going to get. But yeah, this is looking
- 9:47to be at least five expeditions. For
- 9:49activator Atlas Saga, make sure it's
- 9:51clicked. So, you just right-click it,
- 9:53and then see how many we get.
- 9:54Personally, I just like type it in EXP
- 9:56on the top right here just to quickly
- 9:57see how many I got. And yep, we did get
- 9:59five. So, we got all five, all six, all
- 10:04five, all six, and all six. This is an
- 10:07extremely good one. All fives and all
- 10:09six and all sevens are the best ones to
- 10:12get. I do believe there is an all eight
- 10:14as well, but I'm not too sure. So,
- 10:16there's other ones like these that says
- 10:17plus one remnant has at least seven rune
- 10:20slots. These are the worst ones to get
- 10:22because it's just a singular remnant
- 10:24with seven runes, and there's like 10
- 10:26runes in a map, so it doesn't really
- 10:28matter all that much. You still do them,
- 10:30but these are the worst. The all fives
- 10:32and all six are the most juicy ones you
- 10:35can get. The reason for that is that the
- 10:37re-rolls in these maps will still
- 10:39guarantee the all six and all five
- 10:41rolls. So, if your map is all six
- 10:43remnants, re-rolling each remnant will
- 10:45also guarantee at minimum six, so it's
- 10:47extremely powerful. But yeah, that is
- 10:49how you use Atlas Saga. That's how you
- 10:51look at the rumors. Once again, I'll
- 10:52link this down below. But yeah, you want
- 10:54to use an Atlas Saga that has four of
- 10:56the normal rumors. If it has a unique
- 10:59map of bosses, it's fine to still use it
- 11:01on it because it can still have four
- 11:02normal ones. Once again, use the item
- 11:04trick in inventory, move your item, and
- 11:06you can see if it has more rumors. But
- 11:08yeah, at least four rumors have four
- 11:10guaranteed grand expeditions for your
- 11:12Atlas Saga. If you don't know what the
- 11:14Atlas Sagas do, it's the thing that
- 11:15grants the all remnants have at least
- 11:17five rune slots. Otherwise, if you don't
- 11:19use the Atlas Saga, it doesn't have any
- 11:20of these guaranteed modifiers, and just
- 11:22has, you know, regular grand expedition
- 11:24modifiers, which is a whole lot weaker.
- 11:26It still be quite lucrative, but it's
- 11:28definitely a lot less lucrative than
- 11:29these Atlas Sagas, and it's the reason
- 11:30why these are currently worth like 40
- 11:32divines is they really are just that
- 11:34good. Yeah, hopefully that makes sense.
- 11:36TLDR, you just want to use this on four
- 11:38rumors that will guarantee four grand
- 11:40expeditions and potentially you get
- 11:42more. Long term, as long as your average
- 11:44at least five expeditions, you should
- 11:45self-sustain your outer sagas. Pretty
- 11:47much a nice amount of expeditions, I am
- 11:49using my outer saga and I can
- 11:50self-sustain it all the time. I have not
- 11:52bought a single outer saga in like three
- 11:54or four days now. It really is that
- 11:56self-sustainable. I've done a ton of
- 11:57expedition. I've easily done a probably
- 12:00roughly 30 to 40 hours of expedition by
- 12:02now because yeah, it really is just that
- 12:04good. So yeah, the unique maps and boss
- 12:06rumors, once again, this will be on the
- 12:07guide. The only important ones here is
- 12:10Fallen Skies and Star Drinker. So Fallen
- 12:12Skies is the one good unique map as
- 12:15always guaranteeing outer saga. You can
- 12:17also use a Visions of Paradise to run
- 12:19this map twice. So this will be showed a
- 12:22red when doing the map, but it does
- 12:24indeed work and this allows you to run
- 12:25the Fallen Moon map twice, which gives a
- 12:28guaranteed outer saga. So you two
- 12:30guaranteed outer saga, which is
- 12:32currently would be worth 80 divines, 40
- 12:34divines each. And do note on that map,
- 12:36you don't juice it whatsoever. You can
- 12:38just run a simple white blank map. It
- 12:40doesn't really matter. You just there
- 12:42for the outer saga and that is it. As to
- 12:44the other good map, Star Drinker, this
- 12:45is a boss map. This will spawn Ultred,
- 12:48which spawns a quest item that can drop.
- 12:50It's not guaranteed. And it's only
- 12:52dropped once per character for a Rune
- 12:54Secrets Call. This is currently 900
- 12:57divines. This is okay to do if you're
- 12:59traveling looking for a good outer saga
- 13:00maps, but it's not something that I
- 13:01would constantly aim for. But yeah, it's
- 13:03always good to do as you see it because
- 13:05you do have that chance of dropping that
- 13:06quest item for Rune Secrets Call.
- 13:08Personally, I have done like 30 plus
- 13:10these bosses by now and I have not
- 13:11gotten it once. So I do think it's quite
- 13:13rare, but I have heard a few get it in
- 13:15their first five tries. But yeah, if you
- 13:17see it, you might as well do it cuz you
- 13:18might get a 900 divine drop. And keep in
- 13:20mind, this is once per character. So
- 13:23once you get for your character, you
- 13:24know, stop chasing him. There's no
- 13:25point. It won't drop again on that
- 13:27character. Now, let's go over the hard
- 13:29part, how to actually run the Grand
- 13:32Expedition map with Elder Saga. So, I'll
- 13:35try to show an example map, but you kind
- 13:37of have to practice yourself cuz it is
- 13:38quite a bit to go over here. The goal is
- 13:40simple, you want to pick up the highest
- 13:42value purple runes off the start and
- 13:44prolif into seven plus runes. So, I'm
- 13:46merging this all five map here that also
- 13:48has increased number explosives, this
- 13:50will help doing the full map as well.
- 13:52Doing the full eight-mod map cuz it is
- 13:54all five, so it's like good with my
- 13:55tablets. I'll try to show an example on
- 13:57how to run the map and there is quite a
- 13:59bit to explain here. There is three rune
- 14:01types, there is purple, blue, and the
- 14:03golden rune. There's only one golden
- 14:05rune, which is the Arpenter's Rune. So,
- 14:07you want to pick up the highest value
- 14:08purple runes at the start of the
- 14:10expedition and you want to prolif into
- 14:11your seven plus runes towards the end.
- 14:14So, the runes at the end don't really
- 14:16matter unless they're runes you're
- 14:17missing and you want to be like high,
- 14:19like eight to nine runes preferably to
- 14:21get the max amount of rewards. So, how
- 14:24does this work? So, the rune that is in
- 14:26this golden slot right here is the rune
- 14:27that will prolif and permanently stay
- 14:29for every single other expedition. The
- 14:32other runes only stay for this current
- 14:33expedition. So, for example, this one
- 14:36has rage, Electrocute Rune, Lightning
- 14:37Rune, and Fire Rune. The blue runes you
- 14:39pretty much never care for. So, we
- 14:42really want this to be a good purple
- 14:44rune and because this has no purple
- 14:45runes, it's just all blue runes. So,
- 14:47once again, these will only count for
- 14:49this single expedition. This is always a
- 14:51reroll in my eyes. Every single time I'd
- 14:53always reroll this. This is also a all
- 14:55five map, so this will be guaranteed
- 14:57five plus. So, we use a Liquid Versium
- 14:59to reroll this. You can buy this from
- 15:01the vendor. Essentially, this costs the
- 15:03regular Versium. I you self sustain it.
- 15:05I never have to buy this myself. I
- 15:07always self sustain, but yeah, reroll
- 15:08this. And now, we got a Arcane Rune,
- 15:10which unfortunately is a blue rune. So,
- 15:12this one is bad. You'll still pick it up
- 15:14cuz every rune does add quant to
- 15:16monsters, but not ideal. Go to the next
- 15:18one. See what we have here. Once again,
- 15:20two blue runes, nothing else. Always
- 15:22reroll the scenario. And now we got
- 15:24earth rune, blue rune, unfortunate. But
- 15:26yeah, this is what you want to do.
- 15:27Search each one. This does take time in
- 15:29each map, but it is worth to do. Once
- 15:31again, all blue runes, all five, always
- 15:33reroll. And we got time rune. Time rune
- 15:36is a purple rune and also is quite good,
- 15:38so it's a nice one. Also keep in mind,
- 15:40when you reroll your remnant, it cannot
- 15:42change. So I cannot swap this to any
- 15:45other rune on here. It just gives you
- 15:47the random highest tier rune you can
- 15:49get. This case it gave me a mystic
- 15:51alloy. It also could have gave me a
- 15:52prismatic alloy as well. So yeah, at the
- 15:54start of the expedition, you don't
- 15:56really care if your runes are like four
- 15:57to six slots. You just want as many good
- 16:00runes as possible. And towards the end,
- 16:01you want a lot of seven plus rune
- 16:03combinations for max amount of loot. But
- 16:05there is a lot of nuance here and
- 16:07something you have to try on air for
- 16:08yourself. The one GG rune is the opulent
- 16:11rune. Without this rune, my loot is
- 16:13always substantially worse. I usually
- 16:14always rush towards this rune. So this
- 16:17is the opulent rune right here. It's the
- 16:18only golden rune increase monster
- 16:20rarity. This gives you a ton more rare
- 16:22monsters and the difference is vastly
- 16:25noticeable. I feel like my drops are
- 16:27easily over two times when I have this
- 16:29rune. So whenever I have this rune on
- 16:31any single remnant inside the map, I'll
- 16:32immediately try to rush towards it if I
- 16:34can. Like I said, there is a lot of
- 16:37nuance here. This opulent rune is like
- 16:39all the way down to south here. Then
- 16:41obviously you can't rush towards it cuz
- 16:42you won't have enough explosives to
- 16:44clear the whole map. So you have to grab
- 16:46the best ones on the way and hopefully
- 16:47you can still get it with some other
- 16:48runes left. Once again, do note on all
- 16:50five, six, or seven maps, you should
- 16:52reroll aggressively because your base
- 16:54can never be bad. You know, if your map
- 16:56is all five, then you can't reroll below
- 16:58a five. You'll always reroll to five or
- 17:00higher. Generally on all five or lower
- 17:02maps, you always want to keep seven plus
- 17:04runes. Seven plus runes are pretty
- 17:06juicy, especially if it's near the end.
- 17:09Always roll five runes at the start if
- 17:10it doesn't have any good purple runes.
- 17:12So five runes or less and there is no
- 17:14good purple runes, just reroll it every
- 17:16single time. As for the rune tier list,
- 17:18I do have it right here if you want to
- 17:19read for yourself. Essentially, opulent
- 17:20rune, the gold rune is the best. As for
- 17:22the S-tier proper runes, power, death,
- 17:24bond, and oath. Try to get these ASAP.
- 17:27A-tier runes, time and rebirth. Do note,
- 17:29rebirth is the only blue rune on this
- 17:31list. Every other blue rune is kind of
- 17:33bad. And then rest of the purple runes
- 17:35in B-tier, not important. But, you know,
- 17:37if you do get them, do keep them, but
- 17:39they aren't that important. And then
- 17:40C-tier is rest of the blue runes. These
- 17:42don't really matter, but they are good
- 17:43to pick up cuz like I said, every single
- 17:45rune you do procs with will be increased
- 17:47quantity for the next set of remnants.
- 17:49Also, do note, some of these remnants
- 17:51can have two runes. So, this will proc
- 17:52with two runes to the next set. And then
- 17:54as you can see, this has time and time,
- 17:56but as you know earlier, we already have
- 17:59a time rune. And runes, something to
- 18:01note, do not stack. So, since we already
- 18:04have a time rune here, uh this time rune
- 18:05does not matter and therefore we should
- 18:07pretty much always re-roll this one.
- 18:10And we got Electrocute and Cold rune.
- 18:11Blue runes don't really matter, but it
- 18:13was better than before cuz the other one
- 18:14didn't have them.
- 18:18We got a a bond rune here, which is
- 18:19quite good. That's a good rune.
- 18:22Nice, we got an opulent rune. So, I can
- 18:24show a good example of how much to rush
- 18:25this.
- 18:27Then we got a high rune here. This is
- 18:29actually an opulent rune.
- 18:31So, this one is also opulent. Since this
- 18:32one's opulent, I can actually re-roll
- 18:34this one or just take time rune. We have
- 18:36a time rune though. So, in this
- 18:37scenario, like I said, this is where
- 18:38there's a lot of nuance here to try to
- 18:40min-max this. I already have an opulent
- 18:42rune here. I'm definitely not going to
- 18:43re-roll this. And this is just a blue
- 18:45rune and blue rune. So, my best case
- 18:47here is to actually roll the sixth one
- 18:49because I have a time rune already, I
- 18:51have an opulent rune already. So, we
- 18:53roll this.
- 18:54We got a sky and time rune. Doesn't
- 18:56matter, but yeah, it was the same as
- 18:57before.
- 18:58Here, two blue runes, arcane, volcanic,
- 19:01but it does have three greater chaos
- 19:03orbs. This is another point of
- 19:04decision-making. Um generally of how
- 19:07much min divines you want to keep. Three
- 19:09greater chaos if I were to say one
- 19:10divine. Generally, I would keep this,
- 19:13but it does depend. Um In this scenario,
- 19:15since I do feel like this map can be
- 19:17quite juicy, I also have 22 explosives,
- 19:19I am going to reroll this. Now, a lot of
- 19:21times you won't reroll three chaos, but
- 19:22in this scenario, I do think it's worth
- 19:24it.
- 19:25So, I rerolled into a soul rune, which
- 19:26is a purple rune. This is nice. This
- 19:28will prolif.
- 19:31Oth rune is a great rune. It also comes
- 19:33with three greater chaos orbs. This is
- 19:35an easy pick.
- 19:36Then we have here EXP rune doesn't
- 19:38really matter. Fire rune, arcane rune,
- 19:39rebirth. Rebirth is good, like I said,
- 19:41so we'll take that.
- 19:43This None of these runes matter, so
- 19:45we'll always reroll this. So, we got two
- 19:46runes here, but none of them matter, so
- 19:48we're just going to reroll.
- 19:50Blood, blood, doesn't really matter.
- 19:51We're hoping for like high runes here at
- 19:52the end. Like I said, at the end of the
- 19:54chain, you really want these seven or
- 19:55eight rune stacks. It's the most ideal,
- 19:57so we're hoping to reroll these into
- 19:58high tiers.
- 20:00Fortunately, we're not going to high
- 20:01tier rerolls, but it is what it is. It
- 20:03does happen.
- 20:05This is a nice one to end on, so this we
- 20:06got actually got an eight rune. This is
- 20:08a great one to end on. So, overall, this
- 20:10map should be quite good loot. I would
- 20:12probably would expect something like 10
- 20:13divines from this map. Yeah, usually you
- 20:15have 15 explosives, but this map had an
- 20:17additional modifier for more explosives.
- 20:19With 22 explosives, I can definitely get
- 20:21everything inside this map, so I'll show
- 20:23you how I path. And once again, I I
- 20:25always want to rush the opulent rune cuz
- 20:27it's the most valuable rune, but
- 20:29sometimes you have to take the runes to
- 20:30start as well. So, these five runes
- 20:32don't really matter, so I can easily
- 20:34start here. And also, this map has a
- 20:36special modifier where it has these Val
- 20:38relics that gives you more magic
- 20:40monsters, increase the magic rares,
- 20:41increase drops. These are very, very
- 20:43strong, but do come with massive
- 20:45downsides like immune to damage. A lot
- 20:48of you, you know, the expedition maps
- 20:49have something like this, but it is
- 20:50something to keep in mind. Make sure you
- 20:52don't take immune damage to your main
- 20:53damage type as then you'll do no damage.
- 20:56So, I can show you how I path here and
- 20:57how I plan this route. Now, this was an
- 20:59easier map cuz we had 22 explosives to
- 21:01begin with. If I only had 15, I probably
- 21:03would have had to drop a lot of this top
- 21:05stuff. So, I probably would have dropped
- 21:06these rune and probably a rune over here
- 21:09as well and then go straight down. But,
- 21:11because I had 22 explosives, I was able
- 21:13to get more runes. Of course, that's not
- 21:14the only good modifier. Increased
- 21:16placement range, we get like twice the
- 21:17range, is also quite strong. But, yeah,
- 21:19this map just has a lot of nuance to the
- 21:20placements. But, to show you what I did
- 21:22and how I am going to max use this map,
- 21:24and this map should drop a lot of
- 21:26divines. Now, we pick up these two runes
- 21:28first. These don't matter, but since I
- 21:29could pick it up, I did. If I didn't
- 21:31have enough explosives, I would have
- 21:32easily dropped this. Pick up these runes
- 21:34before getting to the bottom. This earth
- 21:35rune, arcane rune doesn't really matter.
- 21:37The one good rune here is time rune. So,
- 21:39if I had less explosives, or if I
- 21:40couldn't get all the runes, I would have
- 21:42dropped these rest of the runes and just
- 21:43make sure to get the time rune. Then go
- 21:45down and go straight to the opulent
- 21:47rune, which is the most powerful rune in
- 21:49my opinion. And of course, we pick up
- 21:50the stuff nearby, so a time rune, sky
- 21:52rune, and a soul rune. We already have a
- 21:54time rune, so technically we actually
- 21:55don't need that one up in the top right.
- 21:57And then we go straight for the bond
- 21:59rune, which is another strong rune. So,
- 22:01we already have like three really strong
- 22:02runes here.
- 22:04Then I'm going down here, Othun, another
- 22:06strong rune, into a rebirth rune, very
- 22:08strong. Blood letting doesn't matter,
- 22:10just picking up because we can, into an
- 22:12EXP rune, doesn't matter, into our final
- 22:14rune, an eight-one, which also has a
- 22:15power rune in it, which will make it
- 22:17quite good for loot.
- 22:19Yeah, hopefully this gives you a nice
- 22:20example of what it should be. Now, I'll
- 22:22do this map real quick and show you the
- 22:24loot at the end.
- 22:26>> Now, that's a fight.
- 22:36>> So, yeah, that was the full map, and we
- 22:39got quite a bit of loot. I actually got
- 22:40less divines than I would have expected,
- 22:42but it was still over pretty good, 60.
- 22:44The biggest reason why why I didn't get
- 22:46more divines is I didn't have any power
- 22:48proliferate runes. But, overall, the map
- 22:50was quite good. I would say this is
- 22:51probably like an average map. Um this is
- 22:54it wasn't all five runes, nothing
- 22:55special. All six runes go really crazy,
- 22:57and the all six are extremely good.
- 22:59We're just lacking some good proliferate
- 23:00on those purple runes. But, hopefully
- 23:02this is a good example of how you should
- 23:04run each map. And overall, as you can
- 23:05see, we got 18 chaos for greater chaos,
- 23:08six divines, a ton of these versium.
- 23:10There's probably a abyss tablet here as
- 23:12well, a plus one suffix, a master rune.
- 23:15It was probably like, I don't know, if I
- 23:16had to say, two annul's as well. You
- 23:18probably got 14 or 15 divine map. And
- 23:19this is what I would call an average map
- 23:21of 14 to 15 divines. A better map,
- 23:24you're looking at like 20 to like 25
- 23:26divines. And a great map, you're looking
- 23:27at like 50 divines, you get like an
- 23:28outer sagan, all the other good stuff.
- 23:30In a really GG map, you can easily see
- 23:33like a 100 plus divines in a single map.
- 23:35I've had a few of them. They are pretty
- 23:36rare, but they do happen. But hopefully
- 23:38this was a nice showcase to show you
- 23:39what you should do inside your grand
- 23:41expedition maps. Yeah, ideally, like I
- 23:43said, a TLDR is that you want to get as
- 23:44many of these good runes early as
- 23:46possible. If you can get power, death,
- 23:48bond, oath, and opulence in your first
- 23:49five runes, and then you're going to
- 23:50prolif them all into like these seven to
- 23:52eight remnants, you're golden. That is
- 23:54our your ideal goal. You want as many
- 23:56good early purple runes, and then you
- 23:58want to end with as many high remnants
- 24:01as possible, ideally eight or nine. And
- 24:03so like two or three of them is the
- 24:05goal. But yeah, that is the whole guide.
- 24:06If you have any more questions, feel
- 24:07free to comment below. I'll also keep
- 24:09updating the mobile links as well, and
- 24:10I'll link the spreadsheet. But yeah,
- 24:12that is pretty much about it.
