Path of Exile 2

Waystones are cooked
Am I missing something here? I am running tier 12 maps and all I'm getting is sub 10 tier waystones. Lots of 3's and 4's, not a single tier 13. How am I supposed to progress in maps? I can't explain this with RNG.

Use orbs on your waystones, don't be afraid to exalt them. Dont run basic waystones.

it's RNG, I get plenty of maps when running rare ones with 150-300% increased waystone chance. combine some of the lower ones. I have no issues maintaining maps below tier 16, got tons of corrupted 15s that didnt make it to 16 and never traded for any

get that waystone chance up, do bosses for pretty much guaranteed decent maps
and of course get the atlas points for better and more waystones thats a nobrainer.

even than you do not always get the same tier or higher waystones....im running t15 and 99% of the time i only get back a t15 map if i do boss maps...nearly all maps without a boss im not getting a new t15....

Doing exactly that. Maps I'm running are overwhelmingly rare and consistently have over %150 drop chance. Atlas points are skewed towards quantity/rarity of waystones. I've even juiced a bunch of them. Nothing.

just run more maps you'll get lucky eventually if you've really been this unlucky so far.
A tier 12 map should mostly drop maps around tier 12. It could be biased towards lower level depending on the rarity, but I was expecting to see tier 10,11,12,13. Not tier 4-5 all the damn time. Am I wrong to think this way?

if that was the case, map sustain would be completely trivialized, unless overall drop rate is also increased, in which case we're back to the same situation you just get NO maps instead of lower tier maps.

some RNG here is perfectly fine. you'll be fine too if you just keep running maps.
running 370% waystone drop rate tier 15s and the bulk of waystones dropping are t5, classic

no you are not wrong with this...and if you drop 4-5 tier maps while doing t12 those are even good....in t15 you can drop t1 maps is a absolute joke and i drop alot of them xD

increased quantity of items found tablets are your friend,slot those into the towers after you run them once. ideally you want a few that overlap with each other. always juice your maps.
In chase you havent alrdy, lv as many 10%/20% chances for waystones to roll in higher tiers on the Atlas map.

The game is balanced in such a way as to enrich players' suffering, t15 juiced maps drops t1-t3 waystones constantly

I guess you just being unlucky. Atlas points are very important to get more of them. But in my case they never cease to appear (and when it used to happen i reforged to do more, specially t14 maps to 15s), now i have a surplus of them, what is lacking is my stash to comport them.
There should be option to buy higher tier waystones for gold, period. A LOT of people have problems with waystone sustain which is very anoying since this is basically the only endgame option.

You collect a lot of them, then combining in the reforge bench to have the higher tier, drop of high tier maps from mobs is just a luck.
