6 SOCKET FARMING?

Is this even a thing lol?

Sure, you could do that. Just juice up the maps with quant and run em. Corrupted side zones are also a good way to get them as well as the odd 6 link. Though if you are at the very least alch and go on your maps then you will build up jewellers quickly.

check your vendors from a6 and onwards as they can sell 6s items. I've picked up a few 5L and many 6s doing it.

Getting a chance for items to drop corrupted allows you to farm for 6L. They will be corrupted and likely useless, but they vendor for a divine orb each.

Thanks guys!

I was farming the Tropical Island for The Flora's Gift card.

Run maps with 50% and up and you'll find plenty of 6 socket items, usually 2 or 3 in a map. Just use an alchemy on them and you're set.

I was thinking about taking Twice Tempted + Tamper Proof on Glennach Cairns. This would give me strongboxes that are automatically at least rare and always corrupted with a 10% chance to open twice.

Use Monstrous Treasure to put everything on the map in a strongbox, and of course, a watchstone with Strongbox Monsters are enraged and Zana's Ambush. There are a lot of other small strongbox bonuses you can toss in, too. That should give you quite a bit of currency for a reasonably small investment per map.

Only the Enraged Strongbox watchstones are expensive to get. That's going to cost something like 15-20c per map, but the rest of it together should only be roughly that much. That means 35-40c per map. That should pay itself off many times over if you can do a T16.

That's what I do there lol. It's always a nice surprise when a box gets the 2nd use, haven't tried monstrous treasure on it yet, sounds like a good idea.

Don't skip the enraged monsters. Even if it looks expensive, 500% quant is practically certain to pay itself off.

Also make sure you don't have other prophecies that can trigger instead and block it.

5 socket link 6 socket framing is easier but 6 link is pretty easy still. There are special areas.

Just a quick update on this. Was running a map with the Twice Tempted (10% chance to open twice) and Tamper-Proof, and learned that Twice Tempted can trigger on the same strongbox multiple times. Was able to open the same strongbox three times in a row.

(Lot of mirrored items, nothing worth keeping/trading though.)
