Maxed out expedition is so much fun, its also the most accessible.

In 0.1 i wasnt able to get any extra content done to gain its own 8 atlas points because most content at t15 was too deadly to worth the risk of death.

In 0.2 things are much better, I am able to do all content at t15 and currently enjoying how crazy fun and rewarding expeditions are because I have fully upgraded that tree 8/8
I get a gazzillion of loot by opening rare chests and it feels great (even though there isnt much useful stuff usually)

Problem is that all the other extra content is far more grindy, keep in mind this is SSF and most people dont spend their lives trading, they prefer to play the actual game.

I only ever managed to get a 2 breach stones, 1st one was wasted because apparently you lose it if you dont reach the boss, 2nd one I still havent used because i cant be certain it wont be lost due to the timer.

Delirium farming is incredibly tiring because you have to remember to anoint waystones, honestly I keep forgetting and its just such a bother, I do delirium mirrors though and only just now managed to get enough splinters to get my first stone for it. Of course with what happened with the 1st breach stone, I ll have to actually research the encounter in advance so its not wasted.

Ritual is also another issue, I was able to get the kings invitation to do it once, surprisingly easy but havent seen an invite since. Actually I ve seen one and deferred it for later but it was too expensive to ever buy when it reappeared so I am at 2/8 still

I think expedition should be the goal in terms of accessibility for all extra content, it needs to be far easier to attain those atlas tree points by doing content so the content feels rewards.
Certainly some could be a bit more grindy than others but getting to the 1st 2/4 points should be easy.

Hi,

SSF player here.

Im not playing T15+ maps yet, even I collected my first ever Delirium-simulacrum yesteraday (its in my stash atm, cause its tier 16 map, which I cannot do atm)

My main question for expeditions:
Since Orloth appear at logbook level 79+, how to get this kind of loogbook ?
I guess, I need to play tier 15+ maps right ?

Thank you

Can you describe how exactly do I locate Orloth in my expedition map to get points into expedition atlas tree ?

Thank you

By orloth I assume you are referring to the expedition boss.

Its RNG, sometimes you will enter an expedition logbook and notice a skull mark in the map, once its blown up you can go down there to kill the boss. It doesnt always appear.

Remnant affixes dont affect the boss so dont have to worry about the order of blowing things up.

A, you were fast. I edited my initial post as you typed this.

Oh not 100% certain but I believe the base ilvl of items is based on the level of the map.

So if you got a lvl 14 way stone and an irradiated map(or a basic t15) you can reach lvl 79 map which should drop 79 logbooks

I now mostly do t15s on irradiated maps so I only get lvl 80 logbooks

donno, for me expedition is unrewarding, taking into account how much micromanagement required.

i got a lv79 logbook from a T13 map last night. i didn't realize there was any significance to it. having said that; i don't recall the mods i applied to the map, towers etc. it might have been pushed up to lv79 or 80.

Breach and Delirium very much require zoom zoom boom builds which is why ppl keep saying that there must be a possibility like this in the game, otherwise this content doesnt make sense. Yes for the Breach domain you need to keep up the Breach expanse until you cross the bridges - lose it once and its game over, stone wasted. Therefore, the domain boss Xesht is relatively easy, doesnt have much HP and only has a one or two really deadly attacks (research fight before still!).

With Delirium, the stone grants you access to Simulacrum. Simulacrum is BY FAR the hardest endgame content out of all mechanics - so far as T0 being on par or even harder than other T3 pinnacles. So make sure you are really really strong before attempting it, have good aoe, movement speed and stun threshold resistance. Still it may take a couple tries to complete your first Simulacrum until you get the hang.

However and thats the point of my post: Both Delirium and Breach are easier accessible than other mechanics, mainly because the RNG is in your favor: With Expeditions, you first need a logbook drop which is very rare already. Then you need to be lucky that the map contains the tomb to Olroth which it doesnt always. Thats two specific RNG layers that have to go in your favor which you dont have for Breach and Delirium as splinters always drop and the atlas points after the first time you beat the bosses increase those as well. Additionally, Breach can drop Breach rings and catalysts and Delirium can drop distillments, all of which you need to further hone your character.

With Rituals you have the problem that you need to get lucky and get the invite. If it doesnt show up, you have no way of forcing it. Sucks for SSF.

So all in all I would say Delirium and especially Breach are the most engaging endgame mechanics to farm, get materials and also other useful items from and you always get a load of Splinters once you figure out how to do it.

thx for info
