I came back from work, and started trying everything in this topic.

Reset my hideout.

Opened white maps and exited.

Put my watchstones all over the atlas and all over the left side. Theres only so much you can do with six.

Im pretty sure I broke the fuckin thing. Im well over fifty maps with no influence, and im pretty sure this is why maps are dropping so much or else people would go ballistic.

Bright side is ive got a ton of maps and I made 12 ex today just running around useless maps. Why is everything so damn expensive when everything is dropping so much?

run white/yellow/red map tiers depending on how many stones you need in any given area to spawn influence
then run white maps in that area of influence, until you see one of the conquerors spawn ads
leave the map and repeat until zana allows you to enter cathedral
repeat step 1

I’ve gotten my 32/32 for a long time too, on my second 100. You can’t just open it, you have to run like 5-10 packs and then leave. If it spawns, it’ll spawn anyways.

I was one of the first people to figure out the white map spam and even posted it on the official forums day 2 of league. Like what was previously said, you need to spawn influence with the correct tier of map. Then you can spam any lower tier version of maps in the influenced area to eventually progress the influence. Kill groups of mobs for about 10-20 seconds. It's good to kill for this amount of time, because sometimes it takes a little longer than the first few groups of mobs to progress influence. If no influence progresses, then put the next map in and repeat until it does.

If the maps you are spamming are directly adjacent to the original correct tier of map used to spawn influence then you have a better chance to progress influence. You can also spam the same map in a row over and over to progress it, but that can fail sometimes because it has a lower chance than switching up the map spam. There is STILL RNG with any of this, but it's a hell of a lot faster than trying to only use correct red tier maps or actually fully clear the map.
