↖ The Strategy

To maximize gold farming, focus on the following key elements:

↖ Domination vs. Ambush 

Choose Domination Scarab over Ambush Scarabs for the price. The latter are more affordable at present because of their low price; therefore, they represent a cheaper option for setting up. 

↖ Great Cheap Scarab 

For maximizing gold drops, consider using the scarab of monstrous lineage. This is a cheap way to increase magic pack size by 40% and it only costs around 3 KES. 

↖ Why Evolution?

The domination scarab of evolution is very good as it adds an extra shrine to the map. When killed, evolving shrines increase monster rarity which can convert white monsters into blue ones and blues into rares; this greatly boosts gold drops from packs so the scarab is invaluable in any setup. 

↖ Full Setup 

If you want to optimize your gold farming then follow these steps: 

• Two divination scarabs of evolution 
  
• Two normal divination scarabs 
  
• Scarab of monstrous lineage 
  

Optionally, include domination scarabs for additional shrines 

↖ Atlas Tree 

Efficiency in gold farming greatly depends on where you spend points within atlas skill tree; here is what I have noticed about various nodes: 

↖ What Maps to Run? 

In order to earn money quickly one must choose maps wisely; here are some recommendations that have worked best for me: 

1. Maesa: circular layout with easy access to shrines. 
2. Jungle Valley: offers valuable altar bonuses and straightforward layout. 
3. Underground Sea: fast navigation focused on rushing boss. 
4. Toxic Sewers: smaller maps preferred by some players who like speed. 

Any of these maps will do fine for gold farming so pick according to your play style and preferences. 

↖ ⁤How to Roll Maps? ⁤

⁤Making maps with the right mods is extremely important in terms of maximizing gold farming potential. ⁤⁤Always try to roll maps that have high quantity and Rarity modifiers. ⁤⁤Here is a simple checklist for preparing maps: ⁤

• ⁤Aim for 100% or higher map quantity. ⁤
• ⁤Make sure you have at least 60% Rarity on your rolled maps. ⁤
• ⁤Consider using corrupted maps for extra bonuses. 

↖ ⁤Items ⁤

⁤Optimizing your character's items can greatly increase your gold farming capabilities. ⁤⁤Below are some essential items and strategies to consider: ⁤

• ⁤Item Rarity Support: Gives a huge boost to item Rarity (69%). ⁤
• ⁤Experimental Gold Flask: Grants a 30% increase in Rarity of items found. ⁤

⁤These additional items can help round out your setup and contribute towards a higher overall rarity percentage. 

↖ ⁤What about T17? ⁤

⁤When it comes to gold farming in Path of Exile, many players ask whether or not Tier 17 is viable. ⁤⁤While it is possible to apply the same strategy to Tier 17, there is a significant cost associated with this which raises concerns. ⁤⁤Therefore, it would be best recommended that one should focus on tier sixteen as it offers a cheaper way of doing things without having too much expense involved into the process but still being able gain an ample amount money from doing so. ⁤

⁤Full Run ⁤

⁤To do a successful full run for gold farming in Tier 16, follow these steps: ⁤

• ⁤Altar Selection: Prioritize selecting altars and try to get the Evolution Altar early on as this will set the foundation for maximizing gold yield during the run. ⁤
• ⁤Efficient Clearing: Clear the map methodically, killing all monsters while under the influence of the Evolution Shrine. ⁤⁤This allows you to gain maximum amounts of gold from each monster killed during combat. ⁤
• ⁤Build Strength: Make sure your character build can handle encounters especially when there are beyond monsters around so that you may not face any difficulties along the way but also equipped with items which enhance rarity and quantity which contributes more towards successfulness in gold farming experience. ⁤
• ⁤Optional Enhancements: Consider adding Delirium to amp up gold earnings however prioritize efficiency so that you don't unnecessarily prolong the run. ⁤
• ⁤Boss Engagement: Engage and defeat boss early in run to have higher chances of getting better quality altars hence more gold. ⁤

⁤An average player can expect to yield about 40k gold per map with potential variations based on luck and monster spawn rates. ⁤⁤Also players can customize their Atlas for different mechanics introduction and greater profitability.
