Strategy
This is a Simulacrum-farming routine built around chasing Voices, the unique sapphire jewel that grants additional jewel sockets and currently trades for well over a thousand Divines. Voices only drops from the final boss of a Simulacrum, and there is no known way to bump its drop rate — the estimate is roughly one Voices per 100–150 Simulacrums, so this is a long-haul lottery. What makes the method viable is that a properly juiced Simulacrum pays for itself in raw currency even on the runs where the jewel doesn’t drop, so you are spinning the jackpot for free.
It suits a player with a tanky endgame character who can comfortably clear T15 maps and survive deep Simulacrum waves. If you are still gearing up, farm the cheaper layers first — this is a currency-sink chase, not a starter strategy.
Atlas Tree & Setup
The loop has two halves: spawning Simulacrums and juicing them.
- Get 100% Delirium cheaply to enter a Simulacrum. The fast route is Breach tablets rolled with “two to three additional rare monsters,” stabilised — two of those plus a unique tablet usually reaches 100%+ in one or two maps.
- Spawn Grand Mirrors by running maps with three Delirium tablets (any single mod is fine), alching them, and — critically — completing the Delirium tile rewards at the bottom of the screen before killing the boss. Skipping the tile rewards tanks your Grand Mirror chance.
- Waystones for the Simulacrum itself: six-mod your waystone, then chaos-orb with Chaotic Quantity / Monsters / Rarity active to guarantee 70% monster effect. No corruption needed.
- Run Desert biomes for the best efficiency and returns. Tier 15 is plenty — you do not need Tier 16 or Stitched-the-Flesh, since a Simulacrum already grants multiple revives (the “0 revives” text is misleading).
Investment & Returns
- Investment: mid. A free Grand-Mirror Simulacrum costs only time; buying Simulacrum items (~3 Divines each) lets you stack multiple runs per Grand Mirror for faster throughput.
- Returns: high ceiling. Baseline currency is roughly 2–5 Divines per Desert-biome Simulacrum with a monster-effect waystone, so you are usually at least break-even per run — then the Voices jackpot (twos ~400 Div, threes ~1 mirror, fours ~7–8 mirrors unided) sits on top.
- Scaling: buy Simulacrums to convert spare currency directly into more jackpot pulls once your clear is fast enough.
Step-by-step
- Roll Breach tablets with extra rares, run a couple of maps to hit 100% Delirium.
- Run three-Delirium-tablet maps, complete the tile rewards, kill the boss to spawn Grand Mirrors.
- Activate a Grand Mirror and place the Simulacrum anywhere on an uncompleted atlas; optionally use bought Simulacrum items on 100% Delirious maps for more runs.
- Enter with a 70%-monster-effect Tier 15 waystone in a Desert biome.
- Each wave, take Apex Predator (extra boss) first; on the 20% second-pick proc take extra map modifiers. Default to bosses + modifiers, fall back to extra mobs only on a second proc.
- Clear to the final boss for your Voices roll, bank the currency either way, repeat.
Risks
- Voices is pure RNG at ~1% or lower per Simulacrum — expect dozens to hundreds of runs with no jewel.
- Deep waves spike in difficulty; a squishy build dies before the boss and wastes the run.
- Profit-per-run assumes a juiced setup (monster-effect waystone + Desert biome); skip the juicing and the chase stops paying for itself.
