No more waystones—is that the true endgame?

So wife and I were doing the atlas and it feels for me that they drop one every two to three maps. Wife gets them pretty consistently. My atlas has bonuses for waystones quantity but switched it out to test and nope, no affect on drops for me.

Anyways, so what do I do if I have no more waystones? I bought them all from Dori and ran through them already. I know he refills his inventory when I level but at 91 and the game keeps bugging out thinking I have no armor/resistences/energy shield/evasion, then I get one-shotted and when I revive, the game remembers I have defenses and I’m invincible once again, I don’t think I’ll be leveling anytime soon, if at all.

So where can I farm for waystones other than mapping as I have none to even initiate a map?

I feel the bosses should be dropping at least a waystone regardless of whatever talents are selected. People say it’s like a 95% rate if you complete clear but it’s more like 5% for me. Can’t be that it’s working as intended…maybe it’s time for a new game?

Are you and your wife playing together as a duo? If yes: is she the party leader? If yes: she gets most of the waystones.

Edit: you can also buy waystones on trade.

Run maps rare and with more suffixes to improve waystone drop chance. Im reading this so many times and i never had the slightest problem OVERsustaining maps

You can buy waystones from the market too. And The bosses in the maps almost always drop a waystone

I specced out of every single waystone drop node on my atlas tree and I'm still oversustaining them.

Regarding your deaths, have you set your weapon swap correctly?

Write in game name can give some waystones and help fix gear.

For more waystones must run waystone drop chanse table and any mods for more monsters

Did you recently get a loot filter that could be filtering out all sub-t15 maps? I get about 2 waystones for every map i run. If you have atlas/boss points to get that could improve waystone drop chance, make a priority of getting those. Otherwise you should be able to buy a bunch dirt cheap

Waystone drop rate in early mapping sucks, and there is little you can do about it. I put every atlas point into waystone drop rate. Then I did 6-mod maps at a low enough level so I didn't die. The precursor nr 3 gives just enough increased waystone drops to sustain yourself. And I stay on a map level until I have 3-4 waystones for that tier to fall back on. And, after while I suddenly had 100+t15 waystones.

But, the most important thing is to not die, so you need to fix your build.

Are your resistances capped at 75%? What level of maps are you clearing? You can always buy a few waystones from the market, I was thin on waystones too for a while. There are many modifiers that increase waystone dropchance on tablets and the atlas itself

  1. Fix your build/equipment and learn to play better so that you don't die so much.

  2. Use tablets with increased waystone drop chance and skill your atlas for increased drop chance as well.

  3. If you do expedition logbooks, you often get chests with waystones. Use expedition tablets for each map as runic splinters are also worth a lot.

  4. There are cartographer's strongboxes, they're rare but they exist. You can try skilling your atlas and use suitable tablets to increase the number of strongboxes.

  5. Buy T15 waystones from the market.

  6. Use ritual tablets for each map. Waystones are frequently offered as reward.

Apart from that, I find i hard to believe that the bosses don't drop waystones for you. The chance to get at least one from each boss is very high and they often also drop elsewhere, I usually get 2 - 3 per map.

Make sure you’re buying all of the maps Doryani has for sale every-time you level up
