That feel when the Chaos Recipe becomes a waste of time

I Feel a nerf to movement speed like it happened with quantity and diamond flasks, criticals.
That or they will buff up chaos recipe to be double, or tripple profit, so that their vendor mechanics, aren't completely useless.

All this would do is devalue Chaos orbs and Exalts would be worth 80-100c during league instead of 40-50 , instead of 1:16.5 chaos to jeweller, I would then be getting 33c:1 jeweller and it would be even more profitable to simply speed run maps for currency.

I would say I earned about 4 exalts worth of chaos and regals doing the recipe in breech league. It takes all of 10 seconds for me to loot and dump them into my quad stash at the end of every map I run. When my quad is full I spend about 5 minutes getting 20+ chaos/regals.

So I'm getting all the loot and currency from running maps AND the currency from trash drops.

I'm sure you're clearing maps as fast as this guy while racking up fat stacks of chaos orbs via recipe...since doing the chaos recipe apparently has no impact on your clear speed.

and this is a good explanation of why:

Even then when you hit high tier maps you aren't doing the chaos recipe anyway. The items are too high of an itemlevel.

Master quests provide you items with ilvl <75. You just need one of those to get chaos instead of regal.

Master missions under zone level 75? What is this?

If I cleared that fast, it would only mean I could do the chaos recipe more frequently. Like I said it takes 10 seconds to loot your rares and dump them into the quad for later.

For every map that someone ran faster than me because I was doing the recipe I am guaranteed 20 chaos. They don't get that guarantee. I would say that if you could guarantee that you got 20 chaos in one map you would take that option.

I'm curious how many of the people who do not do the chaos recipe put items up for sale for 1c or less.

Then leave a map, come back to hideout to engage in a trade for a single chaos.... I see that as a waste of time.

Daily quests

A lot of the value is also dependent on how much wealth you already have. If you are sitting on 30+ pure exalted orbs, taking time to get 2c at a time might seem like a waste.

But if you have little to no banked currency, it can provide a huge relative lift that doesn't overly rely on RNG or finding valuable items to sell.

It SEEMS like a huge lift, much like giving a homeless person $5. This is precisely why it is a noob trap. It's rewarding a noob for actions that divert them away from more favorable/profitable ones.

No no, I get it... But I feel like once masters are level 7 (which takes no time) they will generally be higher level zones, no? I don't remember because I don't level most of my masters past 7.

chaos recipe is about choice. you can decide when whether or not it's worth it.

as the other part of this choice is not doing it and instead clearing super fast, the {random league mechanics that boost up quantity} + clear speed meta, means that breaking point at which many decide to abandon chaos recipe comes pretty fast.

I think the highest level 7 Master Quest I got is 74. I think only after 8 they start being 75+.
