Doing some clean-up so I can play a new character, and popped over into Standard to move some junk / delete a low-level name, and oh god I don't even want to look at this anymore

What I do is when I am finished my league I clean up my tabs. I can always fit the stuff I actually care about into just the unique tabs and a quad tab. That way I only come into standard with a few remove only tabs, instead of all of them.

Although that strategy makes me wish GGG put in a command that vendored an entire stash tab. Maybe only allow the command to be run in the last week if you are worried about 'balance'.

Anyone have a good guide on the best/most efficient way to run maps? Right now I'm just turning them into magic items and running them (or running un-IDed maps if they drop) but I know there's more to it than that as you work up the tier list.

Super pro tip: unless you're going for the atlas completion bonus, just skip the boss.

They aren’t very common but they are super cheap. Use/buy them on your preferred pantheon powers asap.

I'm much more likely to get a HH this way, amusingly enough. I can farm up 50ex in a week or two, sure. But once I get past like 12ex it's going to burn a hole in my pocket and I'm going to question my actions. Having to get 64 of those .75ex cards? Yeah sure, I can do that.

Having to farm 64 fairly rare cards gives a much smoother reward-curve than having to farm 8 ultra-rare cards, so personally I quite like it myself.

I name my tabs by initial, So: C,M,E,D,F,Q1,Q2,U,S(ell),etc. I've got a shitton of tabs now, and I don't use most of them, so the arrow is rarely an issue.

my currency tab shows up as 69 by default so I clearly can never change it from that name again nor buy anymore tabs.

So I got to try mapping yesterday and only white maps were dropping. Is it one of those things where you just play until better stuff drops because RNG? I was making them all blue before activating them.

don't you just get kicked at some point anyways when you go on your crazy tirades?

You say that as if the guild isn't currently full! I've asked sky to do a purge so hopefully they will all get in before launch. If not I have a backup guild ready if people want a place to talk to eachother while they wait.

whites are the most common, just use your currency to make them blue or yellow. Later on it's better to get them as white because chisels give 5% quality per white, 2% for blue and 1% for yellow.

Map drops are restricted by area level + monster level + Atlas bonus. If you're just starting out in Tier 1s, you'll only get Tier 1s from trash, Tier 2s from Magics (+1 to max level drop) and Tier 3 (+2 to max level drop) from Rares.

Tier 6 is yellow, Tier 11 is red

Until you unlock a map on the atlas (doesn't have to be bonus) it won't drop unless it's connected to the map you're running. So when you trigger a map drop of a given level it checks everything unlocked and/or adjacent and if it doesn't find one it tries again one level down.

The short answer is to just map and unlock everything, but you're not going to jump way across the atlas unless it's to another T1.

They're pretty easy to chance 6-linked from a white base you can get from Porcupine cards, so they're not worth the amount some 6L uniques are..

Looks like 2.8 ex or so? You don't need a ton of currency to get your challenges done so maybe price a bit lower like 2.5 to try and get it sold quicker?

And glad to help!
