I have played the game for over 10 years now but I'm glad to see your beginner friendly content again, I always prefer to link your videos to my friends that are still new to the game over other content creators which dont always seem to remember what it is like for beginners.
I did a lot of essence farming in strands/colonnades, alternating between both with singular focus, and bulk selling when I had 15D+ worth. This allowed me to gear up my character to do the same in T16, but with searing exarch influence added, delirium for deli orbs, and a few other things. I made hundreds of divines with that, and it's pretty fun corrupting a big stack of essence and getting hysterias and such.
Great strat!
Im doing it wrong Almost a quad tab if shrieking only ;( trying to gey a quad tab of defening or should I sell now?
Wow this is exactly what I’m doing. Do you need to full clear to maximize the deli mirror? Also how do you do your map sustain?
I’ve been watching you play path of exile for years but never played myself. Just started to this league and this guide is super clutch
As someone who is about to buy a crap load of essences I'm very happy you dropped this video😊
😂 Its the real reason its released but hypering it up
been reading Crystal Resonance wrong this whole time. Thought you couldn't hit them with a remnant of corruption as I thought that would lock them from being released. Was also thinking of looking up essence farming/selling a few days ago since Ziz talks about it alot and you ended up providing a great one. Been having a blast with your Arc build and even planning on trying pinnacle bosses I've never gotten around to fighting before.
Thanks, helpful video.
I imagine it was on purpose you didn't mention TFT (perhaps complicated or controversial?), but it seems like using their bulk selling tool would really speed up the selling part of this strategy.
This is the best guide I ever watched as casual player. Non of that elite mirror ter builds killing maps in second and calling it beginner friendly strats... I love this man! And thank you !!
I dunno. instantly deleting essence mobs is a bit misleading considering Essence farming is a relatively entry-level farming strat. He advises you have "decent damage" but doesn't quantify what that means. The anecdotal 'I removed a link from my setup' also means very little to a character that is very geared/leveled. It's a good guide but the demographic of player who this aims to apply to can be mislead a bit. Affliction's economy is also a massive joke that we (hopefully) won't ever see again.
Hi ZiggyD. Your proposed atlas tree for minimal essence farming at 3:50 is not very efficient. You can get 7th gate and all of the Essence notables in only 47 atlas points (7 less than the on the tree you linked) by routing up the left side of the tree instead of the right side. Ber careful using Path Of Pathing to generate trees. It does a decent job of showing a path, but does not optimize correctly for multiple required nodes.
Here's the code for the tree on the official Path of Exile website's atlas tree planner. I'd put in the exact link, but CZcams tends to eat comments with links.

tx for the video, so just the "essence" when choosing the map and no scarabs right? tx again gonna try it
Did this strat earlier this week using a 119 point atlas tree. I blocked all league content and used my points to pick up strong boxes, shrines, and harpies. I skipped all bad boxes and non king harbies. I also whooped the 16 change awakened sextant and could pick it up for .4 to .6 div. I bulk bought good layout white maps at 4 to 6 chaos each. I have a pretty quick character with high single target damage, I even swapped my normal helm for a Gull and my boots for Seven League Steps and took the wildwood passive for 30 extra ms if no gems in boots.
With all this I farmed a HH in one day. By far the fastest I've ever farmed one.
1 day how.... was it the strongboxes and harbingers??? Whats 16 changed awakened sextent?
@@beasthaven1571 you know the sextant that ziggy mentioned that adds 2 ess and corrupts half of all ess that has 4 charges there is an elevated version that has 16 charges which i bought because less time trading and less upkeep. i have a very powerful wander build and traded a ton of my normal damage and def items for more speed i forgot to mention i also had a biscos leash on instead of my darkness enthroned. i was clearing maps in 30 sec if no king harby and 1m if king harby. With ess its all about the number you can kill per hr and my char can be very fast and clear the whole screen in one attack, especially in white maps. My char is based on Big Ducks Kinetic Bolt of Fragmentation build. At the time i was running around those white maps with about 50m single target damage. Right now using the correct gear on that character ive passed 400m single target damage.
Best map layout ATM is T1 Glaciers. Open map all 4 essence mobs are right in front of you
I also like adding Harbingers to it. Takes some time, but also doesn't scale off of anything, and the occasional fractured shards feel well and sell well.
How does harbinger drop such good shards for you? I feel like the currency shards are really underwhelming!
@@bakdorz Fracturing shards don't drop often, maybe once a couple hours. Probably not the best strats for div/hours, but I like the feeling when they finally drop.
awesome.
If you are fully specced into essence strategy you get alot of 5+ essence monsters especially because of crystal lattice node (15% chance for +3 essence). Your priority should be to corrupt the monster with BOTH shrieking and screaming, that way if they do upgrade they become both deafening and shrieking and you retain the doubling bonus. And from those always prioritize the purple ones as mentioned. You will run short of remnants if you are not specced into it so be picky. If you are specced, you can spend those more liberally. And corrupting only shrieking is not that big a loss esp when you have too much remnants. You're essentially getting 3 shrieking (3 for 1 recipe) over 2.
Any plans on an updated video for the Arc trickster? Maybe gated at 50 & 100 div? Great build too btw
I'll probably do an uncapped budget follow up soon!
just as a small FYI. You can make way more money if you do bleached T16 Essneces + Searing Boss farming on something like City Square. Just rush to the boss, ignore everything but the Essences and go out, do it again. It took me around 2min to clear the map for that. Most of your profit will be Essences and the Invitation's by far so it's not worth increasing the time it takes to clear you maps by running them Magic or Rare as both the Essences and the Invitation Drops aren't affected by the Quant/Qual. You can also add the Shaper/Elder/Sirus map drop passives and later on, when you are strong enough, Delirium chance as well for even more profit. This is a lot more profitable then just normally running Essences
Do you have an atlas tree for this strat?
@@jamesbentcork3375 i do but not sure how I'd share the screenshot. Just take all the Essence Nodes and follow the left side alongsideb the Seven Gate. Also takes Stream of Consciousness through the portal. S
econd priority is taking both of the Searing Exarch notables at the top and go to the Shaper/Sirus, Cortex Map drop chance from there.
Whenever you are ready for Deli, just take the Deli chance nodes called That Which youb Seek, Singular Eternety, Compulsiver Hoarder and the whole Paranoid Fixation Cluster. Deli orbs sell like hotcake and keep an eye out for Lv.84 Clusters. Those drop decently frequently and just the bases sell for decent money. If you get a i.84 Mana Res Cluster? Congratzs, that's almost 40 Div. Dropped two of them so far and I got my HH with this Strat pretty easily
Essences are great to pair with Beasts. SInce you farm white maps, its also best place to farm Craicic Chimerals and Spooders, and the way of farming them is the same, You enter the map, you skip everything but red beasts you leave. So Essences and Beasts work great together, doubling your profit.
Alva temples are 3-4div per chronicle, if you get at least one of double corrupt rooms, this league. I think it is more consistent than waiting for rare beast to show up.
What do you mean to show up. You just use scarab and you have it in every map. @@telarionx9887
Another more advanced version you didnt mention is spamming the essence memory. I was buying them for 3div each and doubled my currency each time. Best to buy around 10 then blast them all and sell in bulk on a break. Made a headhunter in 2 days by just spamming the memory casually
Wait its even profitable at 3d Each!!!?
@@beasthaven1571 yeah they are crazy good. The lowest bulk price i got after running 10 memories was 54div in 1 trade (this was 125% ninja price) so 24div profit (22d after buying remnants). I start all the memories at T1 map, remnant all essences and i never rerolled them with harvest after cause im lazy so you can easily make more.
Also, unlike other farming methods, you get your money very fast, and you can get it in divines, you dont need to convert chaos to divine later which is tedious. Other farming methods, like Simulacrum or Blight etc, you get all sort of items, which almost all you need price check, put on sale, and wait to be sold, and you get bunch of various items which is additional work- cuts profit per hour because you dont get your profit right alway.
The only downside of essences is that you dont get big drops, if you only focus on essence monsters, and its low tier maps, i mean sometimes u will get random divine, but no like 3 passive voices or 3 passive mana reservation clusters in Simulacrum, or Tainted oils in Blight + random expensive divination card etc.
Its steady profit, no risk from losing it there is no chance for not gaining more than invested at end of map. After you grind enough currency you can switch to some higher tier map strategy where if you juice maps well bigger items can drop.
Also, dont know if he mentioned it in video, always convert essences into more expensive ones via Harvest bench, it will increase your profit with little investment, and you can't lose money, just buy blue harvest lifeforce.
That's why I like to combine essence farm with bossing, you work towards the chance for some of those bigger, more exciting drops at the same time!
Good mention on the harvest convert, I should check that one out.
@@ZiggyDGaming yes, bossing could be upgrade when you buy better gear to do rare tier 16 maps, to get altars, and u can upgrade altars to get even more currency, sometimes i get 10-15 awakened sextant in 1 map from altar, or same amount of grand eldrich ember which sells for about 12 pieces for 1 div. 1 click of altar doesnt take much time and while you clear minions passing thru map its just aditional profit, also can often add aditional loot to bosses.
The way i think of the listing prices to keep it straight is i think what fraction of a divine is this thing worth. If youre selling 10 essence for 1 div then each essence is 1/10th of a divine. So 1/10 is your pricing
On the one hand, awesome stratagey for next league. On the other, i feels like the popularity of this vid will drop the market price significantly. Swings and roundabouts i suppose.
You can add Alva and delirium and make very good money
Recently I tried essence farming. I was plesently supprised that it gives decent currency. The strategy is better for people who farm a lot and sell in bulk though as the prices can be multiple times better.
On the other side, it felt much worse than other leagues I tried like: expedition, harvest, incursion, betrayal. You also reach your maximum value much faster. On the flip side incursion and betrayal requre sextants to get master on map, betrayal is also quite comolicated. Expedition requires scarabs and is quite hard and harvest.. that probably the easiest one. You need decent character, but not as powerfull as for expedition and you dont need any sectants, scarabs or map device craft.
G'Day Ziggy!
Please also do a vid on Harvest. It's insane how much people pay for lifeforce. I am selling 1000 for 80c and they buy it like candy. Also on avarage 1 map drops around 1000 lifeforce. (1500 if you do 8mod or unidentifed map with 20% packsize sextant)
I kind of don't enjoy the harvest gardens very much 😅 it is stacked though, so I should look into covering it. When I went to enchant my weapon and saw it cost 1.5 div of life force 😱 only issue I see is that it's kind of a higher end strategy and I've been focusing more on good beginner friendly ones so far.
Its that high price because inflation, same as essences, i was selling Defeaning essence of loathing for 25c per piece, some people are selling even for 30c per piece, or 9 for divine.
@@ZiggyDGaming I did 20 T6-11 alch and go maps. You can get 500-600 lifeforce per harvest. (with all harvest nodes, without using Growing Hordes)
@@i_love_hitagi500...... 500!? A map its like 3.8k a D right? My goal eventually get 50k of each self farm buy for now essence farm
@@beasthaven1571 "per harvest" means for each time you find the sacred grove. So if you find the sacred grove then you get 500 lifeforce in that map.
If you want to farm efficently then you do 8mod T16 maps or unidentified maps with packsize sextant. Those give you 1500 per map.
And so the algorithm works. You're welcome 🤭
Thanks ziggy, specced out of essence cause of this vid
This might be a dumb question, but it looks like you have more inventory space than I do. You have an extra 5x4 section on the left, where you grab Essence of Corruption from. What is that? How do I get it?
Found the answer: Affliction League, the Primalist Ascendancy. It's Affliction only, so about to end
Idk about essences cause you need the right ones to get those juicy divines. But i do love Blight. Took some time until i got there but eventually when i steppen on red maps i started gradually doing more and more divs. Currently making about 1 div per blighted map (about 5-10 min) and thats with excessive filtering of items
You mean Cassia and non ravaged? Hell i want to try blight due to the fun of tower defense games are my favorite
@@beasthaven1571 i never succeeded with blight ravaged maps. For some reason it always spawns towers on the worst points and i never have the funds to properly defend. Normal blighted are fine and fun though. And can be very rewarding with the oils. I even dropped raw divs from some chests. Cassia encounters in normal maps can give you nice blighted maps and some blight-ravaged that can sell for up to div
the tiers of essence is not better depending of the ennemis level ?
in act at low level, the ennemis have small essences ; and i have the feeling that in map T16, in average, the essence tiers is better than in T1
Essence are the same from level 68 onwards, which is tier 1. 68 unlocks screaming and it's just random which ones you get map level has no impact.
What maps have you favorited on your atlas, if any?
I have 10 randoms decent layout maps as I've been doing maven boss witnessing
Nice tyty 😅
Hahaha nice tab names.
Out of curiosity, how popular will this be?
I just started Essence farming just before this video came out, and Im now worried the value of Essences will come down if more people start doing this.
The value of essences is tethered to the value of the best essences because of the harvest reroll, and essences are one of the highest demand items.
This strategy has been well known and advertised ever since the atlas passive tree exists, so this video won't put a dent in essence pricings at all.
The later in the league the harder essences become to sell, bad idea to start it now imo
Oh I see ;) Yeah, definitely don't do essences guys. It's really bad and won't make you money anymore@@pr4zaVIDZ
if you start right now you will make big amounts of money, essences are in high demand, you would need many more people farming them to make a dent in the price. ziggy gave a very conservative estimate for mapspeed and profit, i was easily making 20 div an hour by finishing the maps quicker on t1 glacier.
I didnt listen to anything this man had to say.
The first OST that plays sounds realy good, its so good, i wish it was the official PoE Login screen Music!
Original PoE soundtrack's a banger alright!
But ZiggyD, Reee!
5div/hr isn't much in a league where you can make 4x that much spamming normal tier red maps for exarch invitations (just run in, kill a few packs and leave after the boom), or 2-3x as much just sitting in your hideout rolling sextants. Pretty much anything is big currency for anybody this league. You could just alch and go maps, and with the right atlas tree you're making 5div/hr.
5div is in white maps and just essences themselves. Of course you can do better in higher level content and by combining strategies or through higher investment setups! The point of content like this is to establish a good baseline for beginners or players wanting to incorporate it into their wider approach.
Meanwhile I just use poestack to sell all my essences at once.
12:05 unlucky mistake
"low value screamings"
"high value screamings"
You also say shrieking, but t that's not what's on the screen and a beginner won't necessarily know of the top of their head which is which.
It's not incorrect first one is the chance to convert low value to higher value ones. Second is to upgrade them to shrieking. But it definitely could have been more clear. Consolation is that the part after that describes an alternative approach (just what NOT to remnant) which is probably simpler anyway.
Essence prices about to drop significantly in 3, 2, 1...
nah
Essences market is hard to effect due to being eaten up by high end crafters
Good for begginers, but you NEED the Essence tab. which makes this strat actually pay to win .
Tab Affinity
Why no views Ziggy?
What do you mean?
