PoE Influencing Scarab of the Elder

The Influencing Scarab of the Elder in Path of Exile functions similarly to the Shaper scarab, but with a focus on Elder influence. Here’s a breakdown:

Invoking the Elder’s Power:

  • Elder Influence: Using this scarab on a map guarantees the application of Elder influence to that area. This means monsters within the map will be influenced by the Elder, potentially dropping Elder-themed items and granting access to the Elder’s fight under specific conditions.

Elder Influence Effects:

  • Unique Rewards: Elder-influenced monsters have a chance to drop Elder-specific items, including unique gear, fragments to access the Uber Elder encounter, and Watcher’s Eyes jewels with powerful modifiers.
  • Increased Difficulty: Elder-influenced maps are generally more challenging due to tougher monsters and potentially deadlier map mods.
  • Atlas Requirements: To access the Elder’s fight directly through a map, you’ll need to have completed specific objectives on the Atlas tree that unlock this encounter.

Who should use it?

  • Targeted Farming: Players who specifically want to farm Elder-influenced items or fragments can use this scarab to guarantee Elder influence on a chosen map.
  • End-Game Challenge: Experienced players seeking a challenging map experience with the potential for high-tier rewards might utilize this scarab.
  • Atlas Completion: If you’re aiming to complete your Atlas by unlocking the Elder’s fight, you can use this scarab on specific maps that contribute towards that goal (assuming you’ve met the Atlas requirements).

Things to Consider:

  • Map Selection: Choose a map that benefits from Elder influence and aligns with your farming goals. Some maps offer better layouts or boss encounters when influenced by the Elder.
  • Difficulty Increase: Be prepared for a more challenging map experience due to tougher monsters and potentially deadlier map mods.
  • Atlas Progression: Ensure you’ve progressed far enough on the Atlas tree to unlock the Elder’s fight if you aim to access it directly through an Elder-influenced map.

Remember:

The Influencing Scarab of the Elder is a valuable tool for shaping your map experience. Use it strategically based on your desired loot, challenge level, and overall Atlas goals. Both Shaper and Elder scarabs offer distinct high-tier rewards and challenging encounters, so the choice depends on your specific needs.
