↖ Pros & Cons

• + Ultimatum farming has the potential for high rewards in a short amount of time.
• + The mechanics offer a diverse range of gameplay experiences.
• - Rewards can be unpredictable, leading to potential losing streaks.
• - Certain mechanics such as ruin can pose challenges for some builds.

↖ What is Ultimatum?

Ultimatum encounters within the map features 10 stages with the option of passives increasing it to 13. Players cannot simply be idle and finish an encounter; they have to perform tasks like defending Alva, killing monsters, or standing inside circles. In those encounters players are given a reward and then ask if they wish to continue for more rewards, or decide to leave.

↖ How to Profit?

Profit from ultimatum encounters can be achieved by the following two main pillars - through catalysts and through inscribed ultimatums. In terms of profitability, catalysts and inscribed ultimatums are the most primary sources of earnings; at the same time there are also some other additional loot options such as currency drops that provide some earnings too.

↖ Profitable Catalysts

Catalysts are very important commodities while ultimatum farming. Considering some of the catalysts it can be noticed that they are inexpensive compared to how many times they drop.

Prismatic and Fertile Catalysts remain physically the most profitable eternally justified with present materials selling out or available materials ready to be stocked up for selling out endless times at times.

↖ Inscribed Ultimatums

Inscribed Ultimatums are a class of map items that provide unique encounters upon usage. These encounters can include sacrificing a unique item in exchange for another unique, completing two currencies in some form, two half divination cards in unique items or even items that are worthy of a mirror.

On successful execution of the encounter, one would be rewarded positively but on failure, the sacrificed item would be lost. Inscribed ultimatums are key to currency farming while undertaking ultimatum encounters and as such should be used in a tactical manner.

↖ Inscribed Tiers

Inscribed ultimatums have tiers based on the amount of life monsters possess. Each level provides different rewards, and here is a list of rewards corresponding to different level systems:

↖ Should You Run Inscribed?

Running inscribed ultimatums revolves around one's robustness of the build in order to achieve maximum returns. In other words and especially for those who wish risk less, they can simply sell the inscribed ultimatums for some income.

↖ How to Pricecheck?

When going for trade inscribed ultimatums, remember to utilize the search bar to only show items pertaining to monster life or damage to be able to find unscribed adds or low adds targets. 

Zeros also known as tier zero ultimatums where monster life is at 200% may go for 2 divine orbs mounting as the rewards which can be obtained are many More items can be viewed and purchased in more categories of rewards and flower pricing according to the demand of the market. On the other hand, if you want to play it safe, stick to outright selling ultimatums as an option.

↖ Profit from Catalysts

The following key points can better help you get profits from catalysts:

• Ensure that you also include booster items such as Noxious and Inscribing catalyst among other Basic Catalysts as they may be unappealing and difficult to market.
• Consider lowering the price on the less popular Catalysts to say around 180-190 for the unit in order to sell the economies more easily.
• Alternatively, try and turn the Horrific Station instead of selling poor quality Noxious, Unstable or Imbu Catalysts.
• It's quite a risky prospect but if you have enough basic Catalysts at Harvest, Rolling tenders with the bad Catalysts can yield satisfying results.

↖ Which Challenge to Run?

Specific aspects of the Ultimatum challenges should be kept in mind while doing them:

• Protect the Altar: It's basically like "Slaughter Enemies", but fewer enemies are needed to be killed, hence this is a quick and effective challenge.
• Slaughter Enemies: Cenotaph Assaults task is mostly about killing beasts, which can be performed in quick order, giving another nice suggestion for challenges.
• Survive the Assault: Although it is not the most effective challenge out there, somehow this can be possible depending on certain factors.
• Stay in the Circles: This is generally regarded as outside of the better options due to a long time taken to complete it.

↖ Best Maps

By employing maps like Mesa or Dunes which offer less obstruction, it is possible to farming Ultimatlium efficiently. Also do not discount running SP since it will allow closer Ultimatum spawns at the beginning. It should be done on maps that you are comfortable playing and the layout is also appropriate.

↖ Rolling Maps

On how to ready the maps for Ultimatum farming it can be said that aim for a map quantity of 80% or higher. - Enough of those allowing running Catalysts and will fill the centers will increase size and numbers the drops for Catalysts. For concentrating only on Ultimates though, map quantity less is more.

↖ T17?

Considerations for running Ultimatum on  Tier 17:

• Tier 17 does not significantly enhance Ultimatum rewards compared to Tier 16.
• While running Tier 17 is an option, Tier 16 provides almost the same profit, making it a viable choice for Ultimatum farming.

↖ Setup: Catalysts Strat

Focusing on catalysts becomes an essential aspect in the case one is determining their ultimatum farming strategy. Running 2 Scarabs of Eran, both the Scarabs of Ulnath or simply running both can mean more catalysts to farm from. Catalysts is the main aspect of this setup and so concentrating on this will enhance your returns.

↖ Atlas: Catalysts Strat

Atlas farming for ultimatum winter will always mean one, it is quantity and adherent bonuses Vector. Investing pointedly on your Atlas points would allow you to increase both the events of ultimatum and even the outcome of the ultimatums.

↖ Setup: Inscribed Strat

Taking into consideration the inscribed ultimatums the point of concentration is making use of ultimatum vacuum cleaner and ultimatum swork-in-in (an inscription). Such usage would guarantee that every time one is offered Catalyst rewards, it]s only inscribed ultimatums that would be received instead of the normal ultimatum catalysts.

There is the possibility of having 10 to 13 ultimatums and more from a single map within some setup without compromising potential gains. At the same time, the last slot in your setting up can be tailored where other mechanics can fit in since quantity-increasing scarabs are no longer needed in described ultimatums.

↖ Atlas: Inscribed Strat

While optimizing your Atlas for inscribed ultimatums it will be helpful to take some additional passive points. For ultimatum farming, the Grasping Gauntlet is very much advised since it makes a difference.

Asks of comprehension without too much of a risk are possible by allocating into it. Additionally, proportionality and Worthy of the Present can greatly improve the efficiency of inscribed ultimatum V currency returns which are essential in currency creation. Yet, there are times when Stand Your Ground may not be a good option and may create unpleasant situations with limited ring radius. One or more restrictions might come in these attackers as drawbacks. Those abuses decide whether to proceed with Stand Your Ground otherwise point scarabs or many others if Harvest is not your necessity.

↖ Inscribed Profit

At what stage, or at what stage, while deriving maximally favorable gains from the inscribed ultima participations, which ultimatums must be observed?

• Normal basic inscribed ultimatums will provide about 20 chaos orbs rotational or for sale.
• For every five inscribed ultimatums of the same tier, one tier 's random ultimatum can be substituted.
• Take care of Divine inscribed ultimatum, because they contain the highest amount of currency in form.
• It should be noted that if you have a lot of certain items that you do not wish to sell individually because there prices are not so high. It can be advantageous to sell them in bulk.
• Use ultimatums as Support Mechanic in the game by using them in other game mechanics to gain more rewards.

↖ Atlas: Supportive

In optimization of atlas especially for ultimatum farming some modifications have to be made to the atlas in question:

• Look for nodes boosting ultimatum encounters such as "Take Chances for Ultimatum" and "Prove Yourself Worthy" to be maximized.
• Focus on defensive nodes such as, "Better chances to protect the Alar", for improving chances of survival during ultimatum strategies.

↖ Why You Lose Ultimatum?

It is crucial to comprehend the reasons for your failure in ultimatums if you wish to improve your success rate. Here are some strategies you might lose an ultimatum and how to remediate them:

• Ruin, a penalty that builds up when you are hit by a mega-spell of a monster, may cause you losing the encounter with the monster.
• The buff of ultimatum itself may add ruin when you are accumulating screw-ups where at 7 screwups there is an instant loss.
• Move to dodge ruin monsters, and if ruin gets too high, abort the challenge to capture the rewards.

↖ Make Ultimatum Safer

Secondly, if you want to enhance the safety of ultimatum encounters , apply the following concept:

• Wear a "Ruinous Vager" key stone of the Atlas in order to reduce the effectiveness of ultimatum and the modifiers of monsters associated with it by 50%.
• When encircled by Ruin monsters, avoid their blows by using tactical movement during the battle.
• This key stone is especially useful in case of squishy builds, however, beware of the incoming quality loss because of Stock of Ruins.

As a result, PoE 3.25 Ultimatum farming demystifies the possibility of risky yet lucrative rewards by providing opportunities for strategic planning and risk management. At the ul at bu and gaining and increasing ul at mutaim of path rider procedures are further sketched.
