This article will discuss facts and details you can expect in Path of Exile's Mayhem Event and earn maximum currency for the rewards.
What is Mayhem Event?
The Mayhem event will be the first of the events that be released late in November. We will give you tips, suggestions, and thoughts on the "Mayhem Event" and the builds you can expect to play in the Mayhem Event. Visit the link to learn more about the Mayhem Event on the 4th of November.
Mayhem is going to be chaos, adventure, and action. If you love participating in the action, don't forget to join. And as the main event, you can expect a big prize. The winner will be rewarded with a rare and unique item named “Demigod."
Even though playing at Mayhem Event would be fantastic and exciting. Suppose you have been playing PoE and its other events like "Lake of Kalandra" and other significant events in PoE.
You should only play this event if you want a little Mayhem in your life and your game, and you're not just playing it for the prizes. You strongly play this event if it sounds more fun than just collecting the prizes.
What Mods Can You Expect in Mayhem Event?
First of all, if you don't know about the events and types of Mayhem that are going to take place in "Mayhem Event," you need to learn about them so it will be easy for you to understand and share your thoughts on it.
Don’t know about the events? For the chaos and action lovers, Mayhem starts on the 4th of November running for ten days combines League modifiers from the following and pushes them to extreme levels:
• Breach League
• Harbinger League
• Scourge League
• Invasion League
• Anarchy League
• Torment League
• Delirium League
• Ambush League
After these extremes, you will be fighting and encountering 20 of the following bosses on different maps:
• Rogue Exiles
• Strongboxes
• Invasion Bosses
• Tormented Spirits
• Harbingers
You will also encounter:
• a Mirror of Delirium
• 10 Breaches
The difficulty mods mentioned above will have the following affixes and
• 35% decreased DMG taken, and 40% increased DMG done by monsters while having increased 20% ATK, Cast, and Move Speed and increased 30% AoE DMG
• In addition, they would deal 40% increased fire, cold, and lightning and 20% increased chaos as extra physical DMG
• Finally, they will have increased Crit Chance of 200% and 35% Crit DMG plus a 100% chance to hinder on spells and maim with attacks
Opinions and Thoughts on The Mayhem Mod List
The thought on this mod list is worth saying that these modes are unequal. The significant key difference here is,
• Breaches and Harbingers are slower than the rest. And most players are not going to kill everything; what we thought and according to the observation from the previous leagues, players are going to kill what will be spawned rather than finding and killing everything.
• The second thing that needs to be counted is Super dangerous +20 Tormented Spirits. This will obliterate people in die-hard and softcore versions of the Mayhem Events. However, tormented spirits are easy to kill. But in Mayhem events, they will not be anything to laugh at. You have to do a die-hard battle to kill them.
• Finally, a good thing to talk about is Rogue exile, Strongboxes, and Invasion: we think they are more lucrative because you will have a high chance of gaining valuable loot and items. Also, there is a high chance that players may get rare and unique items while they are still at the point in progression.
• Even if you reach a higher level with a specific character, there's only a 20-30% chance of getting a rare citrine amulet or a rare amethyst ring. Most things will be pretty good according to your character level. We think it might ruin the experience on Mayhem Event for some players if they have high expectations for the loot.
What is Hourly Mode in Mayhem?
In the PoE era, from 3.17- 3.19, Atlas maps were quite good regarding rewards and loots. It's better to be the master of one than to be the jack of all trades. You should pick a few mechanics and spec hard into them.
Mayhem Map and Monsters Guide
Maps will be full of mini-bosses. In tier 10, you will face Rouge exile, Invasion, and other bosses, and each will have about 1.5 million HP. But as you move further, things will get quite complicated. At tier 15-16, the HP will be increased to 6 million for every boss and monster, which we think is quite an unbalanced mechanism for the new PoE players.
So these monsters will be pretty durable, and as a result, some skills will cause you to struggle. The skills that will struggle the most are the ones that scatter damage in a small amount to the entire screen. And unfortunately, these skills may take a little bit of your time to whittle down and may not be very effective in killing.
You Should Play Mayhem for Fun, Not for The Prize
At the start of the new event, boss drops won't be available as a new economy. Also, many boss access keys will take a little while to become available. Like the league start, don't count on having access to something like the dying sun eight hours into the event. Play the event for fun and to enjoy. Don't run after the prize, which is quite hard to get. If you get the price, consider it a bonus but don't ruin your game and fun for the final prize, with so many extra rare and unique monsters in each zone.
Items Availability and Early Farming in Mayhem Event.
We think that tier 2-5 drop anyway. Uniques will quickly become pretty standard, like Chevron's wrappings. In the early league, you might want to farm zones like a ledge or tidal island to hunt a Tabula Rasa and a Goldrim early. Several items will come exclusively from the side content, like rare fossils and leadership's price from the heist.
