farm more, farm more efficient, farm faster. Use compasses use scarabs etc, harvest and expedition are great money makers, you just gotta know how to efficiently farm them. Watch some youtube videos and read some guides. Basically every strat can make 5-15 div per hour if you invest into it and farm efficiently. Roll maps in advance, bulk buy juice , bulk sell your stuff on the forbidden trove discord etc.

Or just play ssf so you can't be poor omegalul

Going to need a bit of context i guess ....

This is my first league i have played above level 40 ..... ever.
Also playing SRS guardian

I am level 93 as i am typing this my * wealth * is after buying 80% of the gear i want ( missing the right necky and shield could use a upgrade ) 2 divine and 1k chaos and about 5 divine in materials i could sell.

I mostly focus on expedition and doing maps as fast as i can is that the right way ? i dunno but i do not feel poor or needing anything at this point buying any card stacks / divine and chaos Tujen likes to sell me i also do some Blight but that is mostly as i like Tower defence games -.-

I was told that running buffed cementary is a good thing so i do that when i got no exp. to protect. this have given me a few divines i invested in gear,

but i guess i am doing it wrong if i want all the wealth in the game but i am having fun.

I'm sure there are far better strats but my "first league ever gotta have fun while getting some currency strat" as srs guardian is mostly harvest for some crafting/selling the mats and blight.

Investing in blight in the atlas .. it gave me some golden and silver oil I sold for a lot of chaos just in two days casually running maps with blight event on them and blight maps. Netted me a nicely geared srs and like 800~ c I could always sell for some div.. and ofc some div orbs.

Yeah there are X div per hour strat I never understand and surely won't be able to do but thats something for later when I'm more familar with the deeper map juicing. Very often when I do wildwood to juice up I end up with heavy problems and either lose exp or cant do the map boss when the maven decides to be garbage on t15-16 maps. I try to do a lot of stuff at once. Maybe a mistake but it takes so long to get the last two voidstones tho -.-)

I tried expedition but I dont really like it. Abyss is great but I stopped speccing into it since it 99% gives me garbage. Legion isn't awesome with srs and ultimatum is meh.

My first mechanic I tried was ritual but it surely gives only meh stuff. Blight right now coupled with harvest is the most profitable for a newb like me, for sure.

Delve is also fun. Didnt net me much yet but it surely is fun and gives some decent exp. A nice lil side thing to do when you need a break from mapping and blight.

Don't do wildwood, I'm doing it with a 300 div build playing duo with an aurastacker support and we still die. What I reccomend is exploring every league mechanic in the game, realistically you won't be making thousands of divines your first league. I made about 5 mirrors my first league by only spamming 1 league mechanic for 200 hours straight, but I regreted it since I only knew how 1 mechanic worked. Just get a build that can do everything and do everything. Ya'll can add me and talk on discord if you have questions, I'm not the most knowledgeable about the game, but I like to believe I know a decent amount of everything.

Spoken like a true elitist with 4 k hours talking down to newer players.

Now I get why most people here dont like you.

Yes I know right? It’s almost like some people telling others not to do content because they can’t is a lil misleading.

I'm dying maybe every 15 maps, I can do it but it gets rippy sometimes, that's all im saying. you don't need to do wildwood to make loads of money this league.

See that’s a lot more realistic. The more you buff your maps more often you’ll get those dangerous modifiers your build has a weakness to. Playing soft core with a glass cannon you’re going to have that, once every 15 maps isn’t bad at all but you made it sound like it insurmountable with how much you invested. If you’re doing alch and go and finding it difficult you can always just use magic maps or even take it down some tiers until you can do the higher ones.

This league mechanic is a lot of fun and works really well with mapping, but with all content like this you can make it as difficult or easy as you want it.

Alright yeah, it was a missunderstanding, english is not my first language. I just meant to say that the league mechanic might be kinda rippy for newer players and that it's not the only way to make bank. I just made 200 divine by spamming essence/beast in t1 maps for 2 days.

precisely, and that's probably a lie, he's on his third character, stuck in the campaign for like 3 days already

must be hard when it reaches the point where you have to make new characters because the other ones you made are just bad and can't farm stuff

couple days ago he even posted that the new mechanic is too hard for him and ggg should add an option to exit it without getting any bonuses lmao

don't mind his lies tho, being dishonest is something very usual when it comes to poe fanboys

I was in your shoes a couple days ago. broke, not knowing what to do, too broke to even try to profit craft. my build couldn't do maps efficiently thus to farm those currencies. But i just tried different strategies and got a couple of HUGE drops, not here to brag about wealth.

all im saying is try a different strategy, or even start a new build as i did and just play(if youw ant to). The wealth will come :). im no means an expert, just stayed persistent in playing and it paid off.
