No exalted orbs are dropping.

[Boomer Click Bait]

I think I have got maybe three in almost fifty hours. There's no way this is working as intended. I have multiple full stacks of the junk orbs that modifies blue items. What's going on here? Can't be RNG is that bad for me.

[gachi is manly]

Even after the patch that buffed drops?

I was barely getting anything before the patch. Now? I'm averaging like 1 per zone. There was one zone I found 4.

[snak]

honestly have 7, 23 hrs in, lvl 30

Random is random. Bad luck.

50 hours straight or bad luck? I have a ton of the other orbs but can't really do anything with no exalts.

Yeah, the whole "craft your own gear" approach doesn't really work yet. Regal and Exalted Orb drop rates need to go up.

[Constant_K]

I had well under a dozen in 60 plus hours. Good to know that you're supposed to get more, lol.

[SkaldedDawg]

I'd like more, but I've had 4 drop today. I've just been playing today since late morning. This was a particularly good day. I don't know if the rates actually improved, but from my skewed point of view, it seems much better.

Most people are trading, 1ex here, 3 ex there, paying 40ex for their precious near perfect rare.

Hundred thousand people trading, essentially pooling the exalts.

Some people farm certain mobs.

Its a trash system though. 90% of exalted rolls crappy affixes that ruin the item, and then vaal can ruin it more.

Awful crafting system on top of awful rng.

I got a lv68 gemling and at most ive had about 30 exalts drop in 60hrs played.

[sdev09]

maybe you activated a bad filter ? :D

[[R]omyzinho]

The same thing is happening to me... I'm in act 3 cruel and it doesn't drop. I tested it with a new character and it didn't drop either.

[Underlowhero]

I’m currently lvl 75, ran maps( t1- t5)for 30+ hours an got like 5exalts,
Then I did then I did the 3 Shekema trails with Buddy who is lvl 60 and got 3 in 30 min. Also somehow he got triple the amount of exalts and Divines than me and hes hasn’t even finished the campaing… I think my Char is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bugget drop wise :D

You're probably not rolling your waystones properly and not juicing the towers enough.

You should go in with a 6 affix waystone and put several tablets around your farm zone. I never have less than two exalts in a map, and far more in proper breaches ( record being twelve without counting the other currencies or hundreds of breach splinters ).

Drop needs to be "forced" by setting up your atlas properly.
Mapping with blue waystones will not/never be rewarding.

Exalted Orbs will drop more frequently in Act 1 Cruel+ Where are you in the game?

[This PC]

I've probably dropped something like 100 exalts, and I dropped one divine, lvl 73, just barely getting into maps.

There's something about PoE that new players don't seem to understand.
You don't drop items ? fix it.
roll magic find on your gear, sillies. :P
everything that doesn't work like that is fixable, once you've fixed enough problems, you anticipate them, and you don't make these mistakes anymore :P

Learn what has value too, some good white bases might be worth more than yellows. Also helps to know what a good item is.

Magic find on gear is stupid and should not be in any RPG. That is a wasted stat, and something to grind for that I shouldn't have to. The devs need to fix it, not me. Design your game better.
