How To Maximize Divine Orbs In Path Of Exile 3.27 Keepers Of The Flame By Farming Scarabs?

Divine Orbs, a high-value currency in Path of Exile's Keepers of the Flame, are highly sought after by players for modifying affixes and exchanging for valuable equipment. Unfortunately, their drop rate is extremely low, requiring significant time mapping to obtain even a single Orb.

However, we can increase the acquisition speed of Divine Orbs by cultivating Scarabs. Below, I'll introduce a simple and effective strategy to help you escape low-yield farming.

Utilizing Map Strategies

Map strategies involve properly utilizing map effects and mechanics to facilitate farming.

Kalguur

You'll need to prepare Scarabs and head to Kalguur to clear ores and farm Scarabs. With luck, you can obtain some decent loot. You can also harvest some Svalinn along the way, whose damage-blocking effect can improve your farming experience.

Nameless Ritual

First, prepare Ritual Scarabs of Selectiveness. Two are enough. If you don't want to obtain them from the map, you can exchange them directly for Chaos Orbs. This allows you to gain more benefits in Nameless Ritual.

Note that you must activate the Ritual using a Nameless Ritual Altar, as it guarantees An Audience With The King reward, which is our goal. It's expensive, so you can save it up and sell it for around 100 Chaos Orbs later in the league.

Nameless Ritual Altars have a relatively low spawn rate on the map, so you'll need patience and to explore multiple maps to find them.

Dune Map

If you have a Dunes map in your inventory, use it; it can also bring good returns. Try to deploy fortresses on Dunes map; cost is low, and you can obtain them directly through map exploration.

Then you can run Heist here. Clearing Heist will yield about a dozen Divine Orbs. Compared with Settlers, it provides more consistent returns. As for Settlers, unless you can guarantee long-term operation, it's not recommended to try them, as they are likely to result in losses.

The Clever Use Of Domination Scarab Of Terrors

In POE 3.27, Memory Thread is affected by Atlas tree, scarabs, and other map fragments, producing different effects.

Based on this characteristic, you can use Domination Scarab of Terrors to influence Memory Thread and thus gain benefits. You need to master the following two techniques.

Tip 1

First, prepare enough Memory threads. Choose the combination of the affixes Improved Labyrinth Trial and Memory Altar Free Map Craft for map creation. This allows you to use Crafting Bench without consuming crafting attempts and obtain considerable POE Currency.

Tip 2

Combine Domination Scarab of Terrors with Memory Altar. We know that Memory Altar provides various buffs to the map, one of which is increasing the drop rate of the final boss's scarab, a very important source of income.

Then you can keep an eye on the selling price of Domination Scarab of Terrors. Although the price in POE 3.27 is significantly lower than before, it's not static; you'll need to observe patiently and sell decisively when the price is favorable.

Atlas Tree Setup

To obtain more high-level loot in POE Keepers of the Flame, you must pay attention to certain nodes in Atlas Tree.

You can choose to run Heist or Settlers based on your interest, and then unlock nodes that increase rarity through the corresponding Atlas Tree, such as Increased Ore Found, which increases the overall number of ore discoveries.

You can also choose skills to increase the production of specific ores, such as unlocking Bismuth Infusion, which converts all ores on the deposit into Bismuth.

I recommend collecting more Crimson Iron, Bismuth, and Verisium. They have high returns and good additional effects; for example, Bismuth can increase the modifiers of area monsters.

Besides collecting ores, don't forget to increase the drop rate of Domination Scarabs of Terrors. They are very valuable, so seize every opportunity to collect as many as possible.

Also, if you find a Nameless Ritual Altar on the map, remember to activate Ritual Atlas Tree to maximize its benefits.

If you don't mind the extra effort, you can also use map modifier effects to increase your rewards.

How To Increase Your Rewards From Scarabs?

This is a strategy specifically for farming Scarabs. You can focus on Scarabs with higher current prices and then block those with lower prices so they don't appear in your loot.

Since Scarab prices fluctuate frequently, you need to constantly change the types of Scarabs you block and increase the drop rate of popular Scarabs.

Please note that while the mechanics state that you can increase Scarab drop rate of unique items by 200%, this doesn't mean you'll get twice as many Scarabs; it just means there's a chance to get more.

To acquire as many Scarabs as possible, we still need to invest heavily in Searing Exarch Altar, which increases the drop rate of unique items on the map.

This concludes our simple yet highly effective strategy for obtaining Divine Orbs. We hope this strategy will help you have a pleasant adventure in Path of Exile Keepers of the Flame.
