Beyond

Endless Tide should be taken if you want Beyond more for the additional monster packs rather than tainted currency drops.

Blight

Outside of Blight-ravaged maps, Blight is one of the easier league mechanics in the game, demanding little in terms of DPS. Even weak builds can take Cassia's Pride to clear it consistently.

Oils have the highest level of demand at the beginning of the league and its value tends to go down over time, but high-tier oils are still fairly valuable, and Tainted OilTainted OilStack Size: 10
Oil Tier: 0Can be combined with other oils at Cassia to enchant corrupted rings, amulets or blighted maps. almost never goes down in demand.

A major downside to Blight is the amount of time a Blight encounter takes and its inactive playstyle, but some players do enjoy its slower pace.

Delirium

Delirium is one of the best league modifiers for map juicing.

Essence

Essence farming is one of the most reliable ways to generate consistent profit: Essences are always in demand and players will purchase them in bulk.

Since Essence drops are not affected by any item quantity/rarity modifiers, Essence farming is also one of the best way for low-power characters to make a profit. There is almost no difference between farming Essences in a tier 1 map or a tier 16 map.

For low-level Essence farming, avoid adding modifiers to make them more difficult like Tormented Spirits if possible. Essence monsters can get very dangerous if it has too many modifiers.

Expedition

Gwennen gives the lowest value of the Expedition NPCs. Very rarely, you can get a extremely valuable unique item, but the odds are so low it makes her not reliable as a primary form of profit.

Rog has a very high learning curve, but he can create very powerful and valuable Rare equipment if you know how to use his services.

Tujen is very straightforward: trade artifacts for bubblegum currency. Occasionally, he may offer high-value currency or exceptional gems.

Dannig is essentially a wild card for the other three NPCs, but he can also sell Logbooks, which can be profitable for personal use or on the market.

Harvest

Harvest has one of the lowest variance of all the league content, since the only notable drop from Harvest is Lifeforce.

Legion

Legion is one of the most demanding content in terms of clear speed. Legion is best reserved for builds with huge AoE or auto-aiming projectiles with good DPS and decent movement speed.

Incubators are the main source of income from Legion encounters. Ornate IncubatorOrnate IncubatorStack Size: 10Adds an incubated Currency item to an equippable item

Emblems tend to have low market value on their own. Most of the demand for Emblems comes from players who run 5-way XP farming services. They are best sold in full sets in bulk.

Ritual

A major downside of Ritual is that it has one of the least consistent reward structure of the league content. Reroll as often as you can to increase your chances of finding the big ticket items.

Ultimatum

Ultimatum encounters offer different rewards depending on the number of rounds, with valuable currency and Inscribed Ultimatum being offered starting at rounds 8+. Modifiers which treat Ultimatum encounters as though you've completed an additional round will make these rewards appear earlier and more often.

Rewards from Ultimatum have high variance.

Monsters from Ultimatum encounters don't drop any items, which makes it anti-synergistic with other mechanics that only increase monster strength and drops. Global item quantity drops will affect the number of Catalysts you receive.

The Trialmaster's unique drops also tend to be very valuable, and the fact he drops Tainted CatalystTainted CatalystStack Size: 10Applies a random quality type and amount of quality to a Corrupted ring, amulet or belt
