How to Farm Heart of the Well Diamonds for HUGE PROFITS!

Main summary

Key takeaways

Gaming

Storyline / Context

  • The video takes place in Path of Exile 2 endgame mapping, focused on farming Abyssal Rogue Exiles that drop Heart of the Well (Hard of the Well / diamonds).
  • The creator treats the farm like a high-gambling loop:
    1. Sustain maps
    2. Spawn Rogue Exiles through Abyss content
    3. Sell the resulting Heart of the Well diamonds for profit (either identified or unidentified)

Gameplay Highlights (What the farm is doing)

  • Runs maps to trigger Abyssal content and spawn multiple Rogue Exiles.
  • Highlight clips show landing multiple Abyssal Rogue Exiles in the same map (2+ in one map, then even a third).
  • The core goal is consistent extraction of Heart of the Well drops and selling them for profit.

Key Strategies / Setup

1) Atlas setup (Rogue Exile / Abyss-focused)

  • The creator says the atlas isn’t min-maxed for pure div/hr, but for “fun per hour.”
  • Required Atlas pieces (must-have concepts):
    • Increased chance of Rogue Exiles appearing on maps.
    • Increased effect of your tablets.

Optional / convenience nodes

  • Two nodes are mentioned as not strictly necessary, but they may help with Headhunter-type drops (utility flavor).

Abyss-specific pathing recommendation (specific loop)

  • “Loop all the way down to the top … and get Shadow of Death” to increase the number/frequency of Abyss-influenced Rogue Exiles.

“Out of the Pit” (explicitly recommended)

  • Increases Abyss monster effectiveness and causes mobs to spawn more often.
  • Helps with better Abyss enemy drops (including Abyssal Echo and Omens of Light) by leveraging enemies associated with Ainamu’s void-style mechanics (luring them out to improve rewards).

2) Tablet setup (minimum rules)

Minimum requirement

  • Run at least 3 Abyss tablets
  • Each must have the stat: “+1 Rogue Exile” / “inhabited by an additional rogue exile”

Why 3 matters

  • The creator claims 1 or 2 such tablets performs “really, really bad.”
  • They tested alternatives (e.g., one Abyss tablet plus Ritual/Delirium tablets with the same +1 line) and found drastically worse Heart of the Well rates.

Reported yield rates

  • With 3 Abyss tablets (+1 each): about 1 Heart of the Well every 3–4 maps (roughly averaged).
  • With mixed tablet setups (1 Abyss + other types, even with +1): reported around 1 per ~30 maps in their testing.

Optional upgrades (more Abysses)

  • Extra tablet lines like “additional Abyss” / “contains additional Abysses” can further improve results, but are described as expensive.
  • The creator treats these as optional, not core.

3) Tablet marketplace search optimization (how they shop)

They describe a filtering method on trade:

  • Search for Abyss Precursor Tablet
  • Filter by item stats and keep only the line:

    • “adds a … to the maps with number of use remaining” (their line-filter wording)
  • Specifically keep items where the +1 Rogue Exile line has high uses remaining (example: minimum 10).

They also compare currency efficiency:

  • They find Chaos orbs → Exalted equivalent pricing is cheaper than buying with Exalts directly.
  • They suggest checking multiple price bases (Chaos/Exalt/anoint-like cost) to ensure best cost.

4) Strategy reasoning: why map choice doesn’t matter much

  • The creator disputes the idea that “covering more map area with Abyss holes” increases Rogue Exile spawn chance.
  • Their hypothesis:
    • Rogue Exile-in-Abyss is determined more like a probability event—it either spawns inside Abyss or not, regardless of Abyss surface area.
  • Adding “additional Abyss” increases chance (conceptually, e.g., 1/6 to 2/6, etc.).

Practical takeaway

  • Map type doesn’t matter much: “Run any map.”
  • The probability scaling comes mainly from additional Abyss / tablet modifiers, not map tileset.

Profit / Economy Plan

Selling Heart of the Well (identified vs un-IDed)

  • The creator sells mostly Heart of the Well diamonds.
  • Values mentioned:
    • Unidentified: often around ~3 div each (with wide range depending on roll quality).
    • Identified: can range from <1 div (garbage) up to 20–40+ div (great rolls).

Claimed profitability example

  • Tablet cost: about ~1 div for sets of 3.
  • If you average 1 Heart per 3 runs, that’s ~3 Heart returns.
  • At ~3 div each un-ID, they estimate ~9 div back from a ~1 div investment (before considering identification losses/gains and variance).

Heart of the Well Rolling / Identified-value strategy

What stats matter most

  • They only enable/target certain rolls using Abyssal Echoes.
  • Typically need only ~2 Abyssal Echoes per Heart.
  • Priority damage/element types:
    • Best: Lightning (highest priority), then Cold
    • Also good: Chaos
    • Premium but lower priority: Fire
  • They emphasize that Hard of the Wild Diamonds (Heart of the Well item) can roll these elements on limited roll positions.

Recommended rolling procedure (step-by-step)

  • Step 1: Gather

    • Heart of the Well
    • Abyssal Echoes (~2 per Heart is enough, per their claim)
  • Step 2: Focus enabling Abyssal Echo on roll windows

    • Explanation: there are 4 rolls total (2 prefixes + 2 suffixes/unique conceptually).
    • Best damage lines can only appear on the first and last roll.
  • Step 3: Roll order usage

    • Roll #1: Enable Abyssal Echo
      • If it hits a desirable element/damage line, keep going for value.
    • Roll #2 and #3: roll normally without Abyssal Echo
    • Roll #4 (last): use Abyssal Echo only if roll #1 was good
      • If roll #1 was a dud, they suggest often not investing Echo later.
  • Step 4: Accept variance

    • They show multiple duds for demonstration.
    • If the Heart rolls poorly, they plan to sell it for less than a divine and move on.

Key Tips / Takeaways

  • Minimum tablet rule is crucial: 3 Abyss tablets with +1 Rogue Exile each.
  • Map type is not important; probability is driven by tablet/Abyss modifiers.
  • Expect gambling variance: sometimes you hit high-value diamonds, sometimes you get low rolls.
  • For maximizing item value when identifying:
    • Use ~2 Abyssal Echoes per Heart
    • Place Echo on the rolls where the best damage elements can occur (first and last, conditional on early roll success).
