dsnpro999: I've been running strongboxes for a week. Both with containment, without containment, T16, T16.5, T17s. All I can say, is that apart from running crazy T17s with crazy currency/scarab rolls, the only factor that will really determine your profits is the clear speed. To everyone trying this, whatever investment you want to bring, you will almost always make a profit. How much profit really depends on how fast you can clear the maps. I personally run dunes all the time on a kinetic blast deadeye. Shield charge and click on every strongbox as soon as possible and ignore the bosses. T17 fortresses are also good if you roll for 100% curr/scarabs. I also recommend taking the 15% move speed bonus from Niko on opening a strongbox node. good luck

evalinor: got mental ilnes from flicer strie, thx)

nickolasl6524: 11 strongboxes with 2 ambush - 25% (10% from tree 15% from scarab) to oppenable again = average more 2,75 strong boxes in your maps

If you pick 3 ambush you will get 14 strongboxes always 10% chance to be openable again, gaining 1,4 strongboxes per map

Given this, I believe it's better to run 3 ambush, 1 potency and 1 discernment. Hidden compartments should be better only with containment as there will be a lot more than 11

H1nted: Is there any other strat besides altars you recommend ? Like destructive play and running silo for example (scryed of course)

captaincruloc3200: I've run Jungle Valley maps, scryed with Defiled Cathedral for the Apothecary.....and have never, not once, gotten an Apothecary. I did get a couple Sephirot cards in some map, that's about it. Not juicing the maps enough I guess.

Zayne_79: Why not combine it with Niko? He has a 1/3 chance to spawn another strongbox I thought?

QuangPham0941: thanks

Regis_TV: I see flicker, I like

justin21491: I found that skipping everything but Arcanist and Diviners produced way more currency. Once I got HH, I just ran Dunes, and the profit was insane.

LeftysRage: All of my raw Div drops this league came from non-juiced no scarab Blight so far, not juiced stongboxes. Granted, RNG be RNG but it was completely unexpected.

Lilstayloaded: bro i have 5k hours on this game, i did not know it only makes a sound when theres a trap

J4C0X: Thanks for the strat! I was looking to transition from destructive ambush farm to just ambush. are the ultimatum nodes just for pushing the ulti scarabs?

Riael: The beginning of the video is why the legion strategy is bait.

You don't want to kill the same legion multiple times to have the same shitty legion with 50% increased quant or whatever. You want to open as many legions as possible to have as many chances of getting good rewards.

That's also why the lucky blight oils are better than the quant or the additional chest.

You don't want to pull the lever harder, you want to pull the lever multiple times.

hardkick1055: Ive heard the diviners strongbox has a general loot pool for cards and not the lootpool of the map youre running. Did the apothecary come from a box of yours?

bar_-zz7lz: Hey, do you do the breaches on map also?

painfulpaindelve: i have been doing t17 fortress containment rolling for 140% currency and so far pretty good, some lucky drops 2x house of mirror 2x hinekora lock 2x apothecary 2x nimis card, few brothers gifts and some others but thats from like 300 maps in total. Its higher investment but probably better, if you make enough money from this budget version its worth it to start doing containment.

ruff1171: Im always playing this cheap version and love it. But best thing in my opinion is a new way how to easy buy 8 mods maps well rolled, everything its smooth.

alexandruprodan1986: what maps do you have on favourite?

gr1mreap3rpsnl: Running this on T17 is better. Hidden compartments doesn't do much you can just take the atlas node for that so you can replace it with another ambush scarab. I usually make around 35 divs in revenue per 20 maps and 12 divs in profit.

mn9380: This is not best type of farming. Very few builds can run through boxes in 3 minutes. putting out loot also takes time.
