POE2 0.5 - This BUDGET Abyss strat is Printing [Will it TINK EP1]

Strategy

This method runs corrupted maps with three cheap Abyss tablets in each one. The patch changed Close to the Surface so that Abyssal Depths are more likely to roll abyssal modifiers. In practice, every Abyssal Depth now has an Amanamu monster. Amanamu monsters drop Omen of Light and Omen of Abyssal Echoes, so more of them means more income from those omens.

The creator’s test was 50 corrupted maps. Including tablets and map rolling, the setup cost about 15.5 divines. The run made about 96.5 divines profit in roughly 3.5 hours, close to 2 divines per map. That works out to about 26 divines an hour at around 4.5 minutes per map. The total doesn’t include a few lucky drops, such as a Heart of the Well jewel and a Rakiata’s Flow. This is the first video in a series that ranks currency strategies, and it is meant as a budget option that anyone with an unlocked atlas can run.

Atlas Tree & Setup

Tablets: three Abyss tablets per map. The creator buys about 1-divine tablets with two additional rare monsters and increased number of rare monsters, which they call the best value for the price
Abyss atlas wheel: 2 / 1 / 2 points, for more omen chance, a guaranteed Amanamu spawn, and monster effectiveness up to 100% per pit (more quantity when it hits 100%)
Rest of the tree: assumed fully unlocked. Other specifics to confirm against the source video
Maps: corrupted maps

Investment & Returns

Investment: low. About 15.5 divines covered 50 maps with tablets
Returns: about 26 div/hr profit in the creator’s test (about 2 div per map). The test had 22 raw Divine Orbs and 6 Omens of Light, which the creator calls an average result
Scaling: faster characters run more maps an hour. Rare drops like a Rakiata’s Flow can push profit much higher

Step-by-step

Buy 1-divine Abyss tablets with extra rare-monster modifiers. You need three per map
Spec the Abyss atlas wheel 2 / 1 / 2 for omen chance, the guaranteed Amanamu monster and monster effectiveness
Run corrupted maps with the three tablets in each
When an Amanamu monster spawns from an abyss inside a shroud, lead it out of the shroud before you kill it. Killing it outside raises the chance of Omen of Light or Omen of Abyssal Echoes
Sell the omens and raw divines, and keep track of profit per map

Risks

Omen of Light drops vary a lot. The creator’s 6 in 50 maps was a typical result, not a guaranteed one
The profit figure depends on the creator’s clear speed (about 4.5 minutes per map). Slower characters will earn less per hour
The prices are from the 0.5 league. Tablet and omen prices change, so check the current market first
The creator left lucky big drops out of the totals, so the headline number doesn’t count on them
