Here's what I can share about "Your Maps Are Alluring" in the context of map mods in Path of Exile:

1. Sextant Mod for Fishing:

  • Area is Alluring (previously "Areas are Alluring"): This rare sextant mod, found on Awakened Sextants, doesn't directly affect map mods. Instead, it influences the Fishing system:
    • It makes the area more likely to spawn rare fish.
    • Players seeking those fish might say "Your maps are alluring" to those who have this sextant active.

2. No Direct Map Mod:

  • There isn't a specific map mod called "Your Maps Are Alluring" that affects gameplay mechanics.
  • However, certain map mods or combinations can create alluring scenarios for different reasons:

- Increased Monster Density: - Packs of monsters offer more experience, loot, and potential for chain reactions. - Examples: "Area contains two additional Rogue Exiles," "Area contains an additional Invasion Boss."

- Enhanced Rewards: - Increased quantity of items, greater chances for valuable drops, or elevated experience gains. - Examples: "Players gain 30% increased Experience," "30% more Rare Monsters," "50% more Magic Monsters."

- Beneficial League Mechanics: - Maps with league mechanics that align with a player's goals or build can be alluring. - Examples: "Area contains Ritual Altars," "Area contains Strongboxes."

- Challenging Encounters: - Some players seek difficult bosses or dangerous mods for greater rewards and testing their builds. - Examples: "Area contains two Unique Bosses," "Players cannot Regenerate Life, Mana, or Energy Shield."

3. Personal Preferences:

  • "Alluring" is subjective and depends on individual playstyles and goals:
    • A map considered alluring by one player might be undesirable for another.
    • Factors include build synergy, desired rewards, risk tolerance, and personal enjoyment.

Remember:

  • The phrase "Your maps are alluring" likely originates from the fishing sextant mod, but it's often used colloquially to express appreciation for map selection or properties.
  • Understanding the context and player preferences is crucial for interpreting its meaning accurately.

Effetcs

Here are a couple of the known effects of the Areas are Alluring sextant (‘mapatlasfishy’ in the gamefiles):

  • The area will grant 10% More Experience Gained (it will show up on your character sheet under Misc)
  • The area afflicts you with the hidden Insanity modifier, just like Innsbury Edge.
  • Insanity from multiple sources stack. If you want to try to observe an Insanity event and your build allows it, you can try dual-wielding Innsbury Edge while you clear maps affected by Areas are Alluring. Insanity events can trigger even while you are AFK as well.

An enormous amount of testing has been done with Areas are Alluring sextant, but there are still some undiscovered features of the modifier.

Insanity

Insanity is a secret condition applied to characters which causes weird effects. There are three confirmed sources of Insanity: Innsbury Edge, Replica Innsbury Edge and the ‘Areas are Alluring’ sextant mod.

It seems likely that other sources of Insanity exist. Check out this timeline of patch notes:

  • Jun 3 2016, 2.3.0 | Innsbury Edge added.
  • Jul 16 2016, 2.3.2 | Two important patch notes: “More insanity effects have been added.” “Insanity from multiple sources now stack.”
  • Sep 2 2016, 2.4.0 | Sextants added, with “Areas are Alluring” modifier.
  • Sep 18 2020 3.12.0 | Replica Innsbury Edge added

If the patch notes in 2.3.2 are not just vacuous trolling or future-proofing teasers, that means at least one more source of Insanity exists other than Innsbury Edge and ‘Areas are Alluring’.

A large part of general Path of Exile lore involves madness/insanity, and therefore there are many items and events which mention going insane. Oftentimes these references may be completely unrelated to the capital “I” Insanity, the specific secret condition.
