Sustaining Waystones

[Lightalzen]

I just went 4 maps in a row without a single waystone drop, are we leaving the end game progression on pure rng or am I doing something wrong here

I'm wondering about this too. Apparently upgrading my T1s to T2s was a mistake because now I'm about out of maps.

I did the 10 T1s for the quest and after getting nothing useful figured I should upgrade what I had to T2.

Unless the NPC sells unlimited T1s Imma have to go back and farm more from one of the campaign maps.

NPC sells unlimited T1s.

The NPC also gets new maps every level up you have.
Use these + the drops to unlock a few points and go for Waystone Quant and chance for Waystones to be a higher tier on the Atlas.

There are a tone of Videos as well on how to sustain Maps:

i dont blame you, even if you do manage to progress and get one it will just repeat and ull have to do a lower one for a CHANCE for a higher one, and its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that t8 maps are dropping t2 waystones when i do get them

all ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ as you say, got the atlas, juicing with towers, running all waystones rare - still cant sustain. dropping like anything from t1-9 while running t11, because i ran out of t12 though i am half way through t13s...

I have done 7 maps and have found 9 way stones, I clear everything, open everything and break almost everything.

Man, i run 5 T15 maps with 200%+ waystone drop chance, irradiated and corrupted, and the highest waystone tier I got from my t15 drops was T11. For me, i got stuck on T11, because it looks like the higher tiers have a much lower drop rate.

And I have all my atlas passive focused on rares and waystone. If even with tree specialized on waystone are that bad, what is the point of having a passive tree? Because its mandatory to have waystone passives on it, to MAYBE have your sustain to keep doing T15. The waystone are supposed to get easier when you have passives focused on getting them droped, not harder.

That's insane.

I know, the bosses helps a lot on getting the higher tiers, but those you have only one chance, and DO NOT show a lot on the atlas map.

I wish I could at least get some t14 and t13 to not get a far restart, but after all my t15 was gone, my highest maps was T11. And I didn't even reforged any of them and lost die in like 5% of previous t15 maps. So i got i really success rate o finishing them, and even that didn't guarantee my map sustain.

You need to upgrade rarity of way stones with currency. I go atleast +200% waystone chance

It definitely needs tuning.

[Panic]

Yeah , up to the back teeth for trying to play maps, got all my atlas points invested into map drop + higher drops maps , wasting previous maps , regal em , juice em a bit, got towers also on waypoint drops and it can be barren in maps dropping. No fun

[LoneDWisp]

For me i find the answer. It appears to have a bug, where if you play maps on level +79, these maps will try to drop waystone from tiers that don't exist, making you have really bad waystone drop.

Just try to do maps on level 79, and you good to go. In order to progress your atlas, do 79+ maps knowing that waystones drops will be bad.

I started doing +1 level maps (irradiated or corruption) with T14 maps, and +2 level maps with T13, and now T15 maps drops are much more healthy.

[Thornburst]

upgrade waystones at least to blue rarity with blue orbs. this should help

[Sweetrollthief]

end game is awful. play something else and hope they make it better in the next 6-12 months

I'm saving the boss nodes now but there is no way a new player will realize this. Running out of waystones is no fun.

Right now I believe the safest way is to keep a buffer of keystones and boss nodes (especially two levels within of your target) if you intend to keep playing the endgame. The earlier you do this the better it is.

imho, they should just let Doryani sell maps based on highest tier you have cleared in the questline and not leave it entirely to RNG

[AngryError]

Boss maps with boss waystone drop passive usually gives me 2-3 t15s.

[Midnightoker]

yeah im 79, was almost 80 but, im back at the beginning of the level , losing xp in a game like this on top of it being in ea. no thanks, you should never be punished like that geting zero progress. ill wait for the patch's. streamer game for now.
