I got to whine... Im getting close to like 130 hours of gametime, lvl 91 I have not yet to find 1 single good item for my build. Found 1 greater jewelers orb, no perfect once yet and 1 div (!!!). The highest sale Ive done is like 40 ex, and ive probably spent around 300 ex gambling trying to get upgrade/make good stuff gg to sell.

Since im playing ranger ive been picking up every blue bow along the way, spent most of my gold gambling bows, reforged about 100 bows and used another 200 resoruces but ive yet to seen a bow with +100% phys dmg.

Looking at my "mid endgame" for "when you're in red maps and can put in more investment" I should roll with hands of wisdom and have atleast 1 perfect jewelers orb and another 6x greater jewelers orbs. Ive now ran like 100x red maps and im not getting close to that.

I know rng can be a issue but im feeling this is getting rediculous

the game is designed to waste your time brother, thats why people are so focused on efficiency in it maybe you just have no mf or slow clear speed !

Just sounds like you are not juicing properly. Do you have full atlas? Does it make sense? Do you have all breach nodes unlocked and spec'd properly? If either of these are no, then obviously your drops will be shit.

How are you rolling your maps? Alch and go? Do you plan precursors so you get 10-20 good maps with good layouts with breach+deli and high rare/quant/rarity on map?

Unsure of your gear, but knowing how to search, you should easily be able to blast t15 maps on a minimal budget, 6link should be absolutely unnecessary on a good build.

Also, Snyft is right. Game is designed to waste your time, regardless of how much or how little you find.

I feel like I should start a master class for poe farming - 1k fg and I teach you how to get returns on maps lmao.

Also, essence on white bases if you need a bow upgrade. ilvl 81 is prob a cutoff for max tier, but you'd have to check - just checked i82 for merciless, but can still get very nice bows with lower ilvl. This can still take ages, and generally most efficient to buy your upgrades.

BTW ilvl 82 = t16 on a +2 node.

You are not even playing it but still lurking 24/7 in the sub-forums of this game.
Talk about wasting time

OP says hes farming for "good items for his build", that seems to also be the wrong approach.

farm for stuff to sell for div, then buy gear for your build with that div. stuff like HOWA from breach boss or an audience with the king if you set up rituals on your atlas can help you rack up divs fast to buy the gg gear. if youre wasting time picking up whites to try for that 1 in 100,000 perfect craft, youre wasting a ton of time

You need to Yolo with your exalts , Alts , and regals. Thats how I build my Monk and Ranger. Now that my Monk can farm T 15 to 16s easily, I am trying to Yolo a bow for my Ranger.

Where do you get alt orbs?

I meant Transmute and Augmentations , Regal it and if it looks nice Yolo Exalt it .
