Path of Exile: You Cannot "Brick" Your Atlas - Targeted Farming of Maps Fixed
Tips, Tricks
ATLAS GUIDE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vcBnTC2-N8 GGG has responded to concerns about being able to ruin your Atlas by providing a way to respec out of completed maps if you don't want them to drop - and they'll also be balancing maps so that bad layouts get more monster density. EXPANSION SAVED! But seriously, in this video I discuss the idea of targeted farming, and why I don't think it's a problem.

NOW SHOW HOW TO UNBRICK IT!!!
-
surely you want to do all the bonuses, to make it so you have best % for a future map drop? is that how it works/possible? ive not mapped yet. I have 12 T1 and one rare T1 , surely I can just smash them all and start my progression? I don't see the fkin problem with bricking? when if you play 12+ hours a day and grind the hell out of it. what will be the problem?
-
"dungeon" types maps fixed - 50% monster pack size on other maps. done
-
You still brick your atlas because sextants are so rare you cannot realistically remove maps you dislike
-
Two weeks later and atlas is still bricked. I am very disappointed.

I like the TCC style introduction you did there
-
As someone said in the first page of this post:
"What I think would be a better solution is just to add reverse Shaper's Orbs that actively and reversibly block a map from dropping, even when running an adjacent map, but to only award those deshaper orbs as a completion bonus for doing every map in the tier" -
you need to make a survival guide for 2.4 before someone fucked up his atlas.

ZiggyD, are you associated with GGG in an official way now?
-
Looks at title...
... CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! -
Nice nod to the professor
-
Why not have maps drop of only maps close to it, and get rid of the "can't drop uncompleted maps" thing?
Completed maps could still grant global map drop chance, rewarding people to complete everything. -
Wow, was that Intro a reference to Tolarian Community College? lol
-
I'm proud of your success ziggy
-
Hey Ziggy was that introduction inspired by the Professor?
You know, the one from the Tolarian Community College? ;) -
Dat Tolarian Community College intro.

So 100% T15 gorge runs. Noice.

how can something be fixed when it's not even out yet...
plus that atlas system is the perfect proof how stupid ggg thinks its players are. options (namely that you can play maps in any order you want) are taken away, and they call it an EXPANSION. LOLOLOL
"Imagine you could watch your favourite streamer take longer to get to level 100". never forget.
I did always respect you, but by now I'm pretty much disappointed in you as a person, ziggy. yes, you got good connections to ggg and they supply you with pre-release stuff etc. but that does NOT justify supporting such a disgusting fuckup company for all eternity. by this point it must be 100% clear to you ggg will never realise the potential path of exile has had when it was released. gameplay is at a total standstill and every league just puts a different buff over a monster's head. and atlas of failure is the final insult.
time to choose, ziggy. integrity or $$$. -
The only reason I am still looking at doing targeted farming, and the reason I expect more players will do it than ZD thinks is the zones for the new bases. This is (was?) also my primary concern about atlas bricking. If I want to roll an alt, I will likely be aiming for completely new base zones. So I'm really hoping it will be considerably less expensive, for example, than respeccing my passives.

thx @ziggyD and @ProjectPT for fixing that. appreciated
