I'll never be a person who send email daily. Why? You'll never be a person that wants to read it daily nor from any particular person. Certainly not me. Yes, I have decided to be more direct and frank in emails with the folks on this page. That means you will occasionally get an email from me. I will place in the subject line whether it is a product I recommend, a book I wrote or I read, A program worth looking into or an honest indicator of what it contains.
In our world, companies and people thrive on click rates and open rates. Garbage metric. If you ever lived in an apartment with one of those neighbors you HAVE to avoid? That is how I feel about most content. My metric is VALUE rate. So I'll tell you in the subject line what it is inside and let you decide if it may be of value.
Now to my toxicity.
I think I have convinced myself I am "right" about just every topic I address. How arrogant? Perhaps but the statement is straightforward and frankly, my perception is the same of every other pundit in the world. I generally don't speak of things I have no depth in. Now at near 60 I'll tell you , I think I understand a lot based on the multi discipline expertise my career has placed in my path.
I am currently finishing a feature film on the current status of the privatization of the technological security state. The film does not directly call out the Beast System of Revelation because I want it to hit a secular audience with what is irrefutable evidence of reality, not the Christian view of its meaning. As a creative my strategy is if I can get you to see a reality you may form a factual basis of what you are experiencing. Then that can be followed by a rational look at beliefs and thus change actions.
People only take action after belief. You can tell someone there are bears in the woods. This stops very few from camping, yes it does some. Then you can go camping and hear a sound in the bushes. You use your discernment to evaluate if that sound is woodchuck sized, raccoon sized or bear sized. However, a vast number of us will take no action unless we have a definitive audio clue this is something really big or hear the growl. Short of that definitive audio we may decide to just be curious until the grizzly is seen in the firelight. Then everybody takes action.
After that experience, back in town everybody talks about the REALITY of bears in the woods.
So I am making a Biblical movie without mentioning the Bible. I am discussing th reality of it. Mind you, if you read my writings you know I have extensively pointed to the formation of Israel in 1948, the Six Day War of 1967 the rise of America as the New Babylon as the basic requirement of those events and of course Sept. 11, 2001 and numerous ther events and facts that are Biblical. So you can guess some of these emails will be about those "mystical" topic. There is plenty I have not covered that have already occured and are occuring now.
The next book is called "The Prismic" and as everyone has written a book about you and God, this book will invert the topic and talk about God then YOU. like you personally, not a religion. The nature of your existence and your proximity to God. It will draw on science, nature, physics and philosophy.
The next film is Evolution 2.0 based on Perry Marshall's book of the same name.
Now you may have purchased something from me or not. Maybe you found yourself here because you think I am a bit out there. You are correct. I am way out there, with purpose.
May I spank you? If you are on this page I may suggest you may have ended up here as I gave you a FREE GIFT. Hundreds and hundreds of books have left this page into the willing free sample folks. I understand how that works as a former retailer. I would like to remind you I do not consider myself the sample lady at Costco. If you have taken a sample in every case I have asked that you read the content and leave a review in any of the places folks can do that. In some cases that is here and others it is Amazon.
I am doing this for my health. The opposite of what everyone else says. I am doing it for your awareness, health, sanity and preparedness. As much as a creative, I am also a truth teller, a Cassandra of sorts and sense maker. I am attempting to help you look at your world through reality glasses you may not have. Information and organization of experience is comforting in a world that seems wildly choatic.
There is nothing here today I find chaotic. In fact I see it as all highly organized and script like.
So here is the spanking. Report back and share. We had a deal. the deal was I gave you a book you'd read it and comment, not promote. Feel free to make commentary here, on FB or at Amazon that I am a loon if you like, yet if you are on this list my guess is you may feel I make a lot of sense. That's the point.
You don't need to be a disciple of my thought yet I certainly am encourage when you create discussion of anytype around it. "Well gee Big Man that just makes you money!" You are so right. This past year I have made over $412.00 from these books this site and merchandise. Had I charged for the books, I would have cleared $170,000. Money I will never see and I am good with that. The price to me is eth sharing but if you don't help get the word out, this is not a good use of time. Word, not money.
So in upcoming posts you will see more. Yes there will be products you see me promote here from my Facebook page the Swiss Trust that is like Consumer reports. I only review and recommend good stuff. If you have a great product and want to reach my audiences in all my weird platforms, reach out. The great part is if your product is sub par you'll only get your feelings hurt by me not your reputation. If I like your product we are teh media chanel and our commission is 20%, so if you seel me promote something you know what my cut is. That's pretty small for a retail enterpricze that typically takes 50-100% in online environments.
Every feww weeks you may see an email now. I will be purposeful truthful and hopefully a helpful person in your life. I work on the honesty and integrity code in spite of being a little rough around the edges.
Thank you for your continued alliance and support-
Uncle Ron
MMOexp-Which Makes More Divines in POE
In the constantly shifting world of Path of Exile farming strategies, the community is always looking for new angles to squeeze more divines out of their maps POE currency.
But what happens when you tweak that strategy and test for one variable: map quality currency?
This article breaks down the results of a 36-map test run, but with half the maps juiced with high-end quality currency and the other half relying on scarab quantity. Let's explore what worked, what didn't, and whether currency quality is worth the investment.
The Strategy: Abyss + Scarabs on Lighthouse
At its core, the strategy builds on a familiar concept: layer in mechanics that flood maps with loot chests, then use Atlas tree nodes and gear to scale that loot into tangible profit.
The test was conducted over 36 maps, split evenly between two groups:
18 maps rolled with extremely high currency modifiers (up to 350% increased currency drops).
18 maps juiced with scarab-related quantity (some exceeding 250% increased scarab drops).
Why Lighthouse?
Lighthouse Map was chosen for a very deliberate reason. Its central building and staircases confuse Abyss pathing AI, forcing the cracks to loop back and forth unnaturally. This extends the Abyss event and leads to more Abyssal Hordes being dropped-each one a chest-loot jackpot.
It's also a natural Tier 16, so rolling or horizon-orbing into it is efficient.
Setup and Scarabs
Abyssal nodes (to guarantee multiple abysses, improved rewards, and more Hordes).
Scarab chance and duplication.
Blocking lesser mechanics to increase the odds of Abyss and related events.
The scarabs used in each map included:
3x Cartography Scarabs of Risk: Add additional map mods.
1x Abyss Scarab.
1x Abyss Scarab of Edifice: Causes hordes to spawn during Abyss cracks.
These were all combined with Chiselled + Alch + Vaal map rolling, but for half the maps, the player added currency quality chisels (like Avarice Chisels), sometimes achieving upwards of 600% increased currency drops.
To reduce costs of these high-end map rolls, maps were split using:
Phenum Plagued Arachnids + Black Morgans = turning one expensive 6-mod map into three.
This worked well for currency maps but wasn't used on scarab-based maps due to diminishing returns.
Opening Abyss Hordes Efficiently
One challenge of this strategy is how slow it is to click hundreds of loot chests manually. To solve that, the Coast Mastery node was used:
"25% chance to open nearby chests when you cast a spell."
Even for non-caster builds, this can be automated using Trigger + Automation + Blood Rage or Detonate Mines, then bound to a NumLock macro, allowing passive triggering every few seconds. This cuts the effort of clicking and speeds up the runs significantly.
The Results - Currency Maps vs. Scarab Maps
After running 36 total maps (18 each side), the results were as follows:
Currency Quality Maps
Average currency increase: 300-600%.
21 raw Divine Orbs.
~30 Exalted Orbs.
Massive raw chaos stacks.
3 Void Requiem Keys.
22 Vaal Offerings (Vollos).
High stack of Cartography Scarabs of Risk.
Many Puzzle Boxes, Map returns, and rare Scarabs (Containment, Awakening).
Scarab-Rolled Maps
Scarab mods up to 256% bonus.
11 raw Divine Orbs.
27 more Vollos.
Significantly more specialty scarabs like:
Ambush Scarab of Containment.
Horn Scarab of Awakening.
An Enlighten Support (worth ~3.5 Divs).
More quantity-based loot overall, less raw currency.
Profit Breakdown
Cost Summary
Maps (purchased and split): ~61 Divines.
Scarabs + Map Device Crafting: ~14.5 Divines.
Total Investment: 75.5 Divines
= ~2.1 Divines per map
Final Loot Summary
After liquidation:
156 Raw Divines
27 Vaal Offerings
Bulk of loot value from Cartography Scarabs of Risk (sold 9:1 Divine)
~10-11 Divines in Maps and Misc.
Remaining chaos, exalts, and scarabs estimated at ~10 Divines value.
Total Estimated Value: ~190-195 Divines
Profit: ~115-120 Divines
= ~3.2 Divines per map
= ~21 Divines per hour (based on ~5.5 hours total)Conclusions
Does Currency Quality Work?
Yes-at least according to this sample. The currency-rolled maps outperformed scarab-rolled ones nearly 2:1 in terms of raw divine drops. While RNG will always play a role, this data suggests that high map quality modifiers have a measurable impact on Abyss Horde rewards.
Is Splitting Maps Worth It?
Only in specific situations. The cost of high-tier chisels like Avarice was once extreme (~150c each), making splitting valuable. But in this test, the player found the splitting tedious and not particularly impactful. The recommendation: skip the fancy splitting tricks and use standard chisels unless prices spike again.
Is Lighthouse the Best Map?
For this strategy-absolutely. Its geometry maximizes abyss pathing confusion, increasing the number of Horde drops. That alone likely added a significant bonus to the total profit.
Final Thoughts
While Divines per Hour is a useful benchmark, this strategy also delivers on the fun factor, with each map exploding in loot and rewarding gameplay decisions. If you're looking for a dopamine-rich, high-reward strategy this league buy POE divine orbs, this one is a top-tier option.
Ron, you are out there and what you say makes a lot of sense to me. Thank you, Wendy.
