PoE 2 Farming Guide - How to Farm Rakiata + Garukhan Resolve
Today, I'm going to show you how to level up fast in PoE 2 and potentially print a stupid amount of divines in the process. This is anime princess's boss rush experience farming strategy. It's easy, it's exciting, and after last night's temple nerfs cratered profitability for everyone outside of the top 1%, this is what I suggest doing instead.
Required Tablets
The strategy is very simple. We run three tablets as the core setup, and then there's a fourth unique tablet that you only swap in when you're on the special anomaly boss map that we're targeting. For the three default tablets, what you care about is the "percentage increased experience gain. That's it. Nothing else matters. The goal is to speedrun straight to the boss, kill it, and move on. The packs you kill on the way fuel your XP. But the real reason we're boss rushing is to path into the big ticket map nodes. Right now, Temporal Sandstorm has a chase drop. Garukhan's Resolve is worth around 100 divines, and Eye of the Storm has Rakiata's Flow around 85 divines. These are rare drops. Exact chance isn't known, but it's low. So, think of a lottery ticket, not a paycheck. Once you actually reach those maps, that's when we swap tablets. And this is important. You replace one XP tablet with the unique tablet, Visions of Paradise. This is the most important part of the whole strategy. Do not forget Visions of Paradise. It's about a divine right now, but even if this were multiple divines, it would still be worth it because it lets you run the map twice, which means you're literally doubling your chances at these giga drops.
How to find Anomaly Maps
Now, you might be asking, how do we consistently find Eye of the Storm and Temporal Sandstorm? Eye of the Storm spawns on the coast, so you want to path towards water. Temporal sandstorms spawn in the desert, so look for sandy areas. And it's highly advised to path towards nearby towers, so you can scout and reveal terrain fast. If you want to lean harder into drop chasing instead of pure XP, you can also use the Grand Project's unique tablet. It's cheap right now to traverse the overworld faster.
Atlas Passive Tree
We are using a pretty standard tree. It's similar to AP's abyss farming strategy, where we're scaling the effect of the tablets. And for this strat, we want this to scale the percent experience gain even further. And this tree also increases the effect of waystones, since a juicier waystone will give us more experience. The main difference from the abyss strat is that we're now alternating the boss nodes in favor of map bosses, which grant increased experience since this is also an experience strategy. We're killing so many map bosses, so this isn't very important.
Map Crafting
Crafting your maps correctly is essential for efficiently farming Rakiata Resolve and Garukhan Resolve. In this strategy, the goal is not to juice maps heavily, but to create a fast, repeatable loop that guarantees access to Anomaly Maps while maintaining high XP and Resolve flow.
Recommended Map Tier
Run Tier 16 maps: T16 is the sweet spot—high enough to sustain Anomaly Maps, but not so high that investment becomes inefficient.
How to Craft Your Maps
Use simple Alch-and-Go crafting: You don't need to over-invest. Just roll the map with an Orb of Alchemy and run it.
Prioritize pack size: If the map rolls with a low pack size, use a Chaos Orb to reroll. More monsters = more chances for Anomaly Maps.
Avoid dangerous or slow mods: Since this strategy relies on speed, skip mods that slow you down or significantly reduce survivability.
Sextants & Scarabs
No sextants required: sextants are unnecessary for this strategy.
Use cheap scarabs only if you want: Scarabs are optional. They can add a bit of density, but they are not required to sustain Anomaly Maps or Resolve.
Map Device Craft
Use the free map device craft: not spending PoE 2 currency on map device crafts. The free option is enough to maintain your loop.
Sustain Strategy
Use Horizon Orbs to convert maps: If you run out of your preferred T16 layout, use Horizon Orbs to convert other T16 maps into the one you want.
Don't overthink it: The creator emphasizes that this method works even with minimal investment—speed and consistency matter more than juicing.
Uber Arbiter Keys
Now, to get the most out of these keys, they actually scale based on the waystone drop chance. So, as you're crafting your maps, this one has 115% waste drop chance. That's pretty high. You might want to set this aside. I have all of these that are really high stone drop chance, and I use those to fight these bosses to get double fragments. This does make the fights pretty hard as these bosses do a lot of damage. So bear in mind that these, in particular, are by far the hardest part of the strategy if you choose to do this. You could easily ignore these, just going for the mega drops, but these are reliable profits if you want. And you could weigh whether using a vision of paradise is worth it there.
Conclusion
I hope you enjoyed this guide. With the right setup and a consistent mapping rhythm, farming Rakiata and Garukhan Resolve becomes a smooth, reliable loop that steadily builds both power and profit.
