The butterflies actually go away when you enter the dungeon. So it’s actually the opposite and gankers want to check the dungeons that don’t have butterflies on them because that’s an indication that’s someone entered unless it was a system spawned dungeon.
Gankers will mark the dungeon with butter flies give it a minute and check again if the butterflies disappear they know some one is inside and depending on their timing they can catch him with the bubble cooldown and the poor guy inside is just dead at that point

Butterflies disappearing is client side for the person entering and exiting the dungeon. For everyone else they will still see the butterflies. This is the same as entering a group dungeon and the torches being unlit when you leave. To everyone else, they see the torches still lit. Edit: Apparently according to the replies this bug got fixed and it isn't client side anymore. Neat. Do note that dungeons tend to spawn in the same exact spot so these testimonies below could reflect that they're just seeing a more "fresh" dungeon in its place with no butterflies at all.
wait what cuz recently i saw a dungeon with butterflies and a guy who i saw had the effect of using the map so i waited a bit and i saw butterflies dissapear and i went inside and he was there
Actually...no. The Butterflies do disappear in the server. What IS client side is the glow of Random Non-Enchanted Maps (Unentered means it still has rays of green, as supposed to the one that has none)

Hey man love your videos, i've been playing albion on and off for 2 years now and never managed to get really hooked because of the necessity of playing in black zones combined with my incompetence in pvp.

One golden advice. Take maps. Go to any Hideout Road zone(very easy to find). Do your maps there. I did 80-100 map. Didn't got dived once.....didn't had any zone wide travel issues(infact popped dungeon in the same location 6 times in a row). Don't have to worry about invisible peeps or such.

I have done 15 T7 and a few T8 solos in the black zone today and I made about 1m. I got 1 good chest of 500k and the rest almost didn't pay for the maps. I am either very unlucky or solo dungeons are total garbage even in the black zone.
I'm ngl, idk if i am just lucky, but I have been doing solo dungeons for a while, about 40 now, and have been dove once, and even then I fought back and he left. my method is I take 1-2 maps, use it in matlock portal area, then use the shrine and go do my dungeon, and then just go back to depot and go again. I never use the portal back mechanic either, as I have literally only died like once going back to the portal area.
I have been testing the game out, and have done like a 100 t5 solo dungeons and they pay like shit. But like you said, I have no idea what to do to earn money. I could chop timber for penny´s all day, but I have a job. The game really needs some safe PVE thats better for new players. I could try and head out to some red zones, but since I´m new, I would just get ganked in a minute.
Dude the butterflies dissappear if somebody entets the dungeon so if u find ur dungeon w/o butterflies somebody has been in therr and they might still be inside. Best thing to do in that situation is to disable invisibility and get the Shield cooldown and wait untill it's about half way gone or 3/4 to be extra safe then enter if somebody is inside u gotta wait way leff for shield and exit as soon as thr cooldown is over. And if u enter the butterflies dissapear from a dungeon and people won't be able to tell that said dungeon is mapped.
man had an error in his video AND CORRECTED IT good fucking shit. When i first started playing this game it was hell on earth getting updated FACTUAL information about mechanics and different things in this game. Thank you for being a consistent and reliable source of information man. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
8:00 but not only that, if a mobile player try’s and open a solo dungeon map, they get taken to the world map, and if someone isn’t playing on a pretty nice phone that has been designed for slightly massive data packets, you will more than likely crash, and there is also the chance that you can be found while your literally crashed out and unable to do a thing until you log back in after like a 30 second load time.
I have been chain running low solo's for like 3 days, maybe a total of 15 hours and made around 20m. Not sure if that is good or not but my bank is filled to the brim with T7 2 enhanced weapons and armor and when I say brim I mean brim. I cant put anything else in there. (I say 20m but its more of what the value is of my banked items, only have 3m silver and the gear i use to run solos is valued at about 1.5m and the mount is about 500k) I have a total of 4 days of gameplay but a lot of that was leveling gathering and tool making. Got the large majority of the 10,000,000 mob fame achievement in the 15 hours too. I found 1 weapon were I never need to stop and can full clear a solo in like 3-4 minutes (tier 5 enhancement 2 solo maps)
the main problem with solo dungeons is that they are high risk but there is absolutely no reward i always do t8 solo dungeons and it never covers the cost of map + food/potions that i use green and blue chests usually have 10-20k in them which is just absolutely garbage, purples never go over 50k and i get maybe 5 gold chest out of every 100 chest and even they barely go over 100k
This is so true, and doing solo dungeons without premium is very punishing. You could still get decent loot but due to the lack of premium bonus, it feels really unrewarding. Heck, I got loot worth of blue chest from a purple chest once in a while.
@@henriquecastejonprimo2928 I do lots of corrupted but with premium, anyway if you get a gear worth 60-50k, you generally make 200k profit if you kill the guy and get all 3 chests. You can die like 5 times for each time you win to break even. And the fame in corrupted dungeons is decent.
i want SBI to add something like a solo HCE, but instead of racing the timer you clear floors 1 by 1 each subsequent floor being harder than the last and once you down, you're out of there and you have to restart
@@TheCornFather bro u r new thats why you feel that way. U don't understand game. Here is the thing if u want to do something big u need people to make it happen. If u want to do solo u can do different things. Do solo dungeon for PvP corrupted. Some time you are feeling why solo dungeon is tough for you because you are new. Even when I was new its really tough for me I fall many times, unable to kill some bosses, missing golden chest not able to kill Boss. But now I am doing group dungeon as solo lol.
I’m a newish player and I recently started running t7 maps. I buy them for 15-20k and on average I’m making about 100k per dungeon. I’ve not ONCE had one not atleast pay for itself, and I’ve had some make me as much as 700k. T7 maps seem to be the best bang for your buck
Correct me if im wrong but the butterflies dissapear once some entered Also the best Map u can buy for dungeons are flat tier 7 ones trust me i ran 800+ dungeons in the last months the maps cost arround 20k you make over 20k 100% of the time If u want it completly safe buy flat tier 5 maps and do them in the yellow zone in my last test i bought like 60 of them for arround 300k and made over 5m in return
I've done a batch of 10x 7.1 solo dungeons. Roughly 1M spent on maps... Got back 500k from it in total. I don't know if bad luck, but it didn't feel worth it at all. Back to gathering.
if you want consistent repaying maps do t7 solo dungon maps they repay themself 100% of the time (avg income with a slower build then he uses is around 1 mil/ hour for me)
Butterflies is good. There is four colours of dungeon in all zone from lv 4 and up .(green 25%)/ yellow 45% / purple 55% /gold 75 % it is a chance that you will get very good loot in the dungeons .solo or group. some time solo is that good it takes only one solo to full up my bag. yellow zone or blue zone i am play Albion every day look me up for party to join.
I noticed that game server time has something to do with solo dungeon map spawn location. Try using a map at the at the 6th minute mark (xx:06, xx:12. xx:18, xx:24 and so on). If you are in your hideout map, once the time hits the 6min mark, count 30 seconds then use a map. 75% of the time it spawns in the same zone where you are. 15% it will spawn at the next zones but near the exits and 10% just at the middle of the next zone. I am not sure if it works with other people but it is what I have been doing I am having good results. You can try it and let me know if it works. Some of my guild mates are having same result as mine and some are not.
I've made multiple alts for practicing and trying multiple money making methods so I can spend millions investing on my main. And through all that, in my opinion the best way to get a good chunk of money early on is faction warfare but it gives practically no fame so solo dungeons are also an ideal way to go in the early game.
everyday I always do a solo dungeon and I am still new in the game and I wear tier V equipments and Solo Dungeon is quite good for me because I get many loots and in 1 day I always do 5 to 10 solo dungeon in Brent knoll or in Mase Knoll and there's a time I face a player who's already in a the solo dungeon but luckily that player and me always end up in a party and sometimes I do a Corrupted Dungeon my limit is 1 to 2 Corrupted Dungeon because I don't want to push my luck too much or else I might invade other players who is higher level than me and get me killed
I have been testing t7 solo maps for past 2 days. map costs 20k And in every single dungeon I have gotten more in just in money packs. Most dungeon have been around 200k in loot and lowest one has been 39k highest around 500k hell yeah they are worth it
If you want play safe fame+money=hce. First u will loose silver in hce once u understand all the mechanism then u will make really nice amount of silver with fame. I do low tier hce make 1m+ silver in 1 hour without any kind traveling and fear.
@@manapotu6623 try t7 maps which are 1 cheaper 2 easier/faster to clear 3 will pay for its self 95% of the time (you get that 5% rip it's better to be on a 15-20k map than a 40-50k map) 4 less of a loss if you have to abandon it by 20-35k
@@Draco9909 1 i dont abondon my maps i fight for them if needed 2 low risk low reward,t7 maps are waste of time when you realize you get better loot from t8 3 t8 is easy to clear too as well if u not insisting at being on a 4.1 build
I'm fairly new to the game and the other day i thought i try my first solo dungeon map in black zone, went to the portal town whatever and took the buff and headed to my dungeon. Then thought i'd wait the 90 secs out...within 20 secs of entering, a dude came in and obviously i thought sh*t so i exited thinking of running away, then there were a whole crew of 5 gankers waiting outside and killed me in an instant. Like....how did they find me ??? I took the buff at the portal...
They cross the zone non-stop and find solo dungeon entrances checking each one of them, sending 1 person in to scare you to go out for an easy kill. You got unlucky but not by much because it's full with these groups and they do it non-stop.
I entered a corrupted dungeon and was in it for 30 or so mins, the moment i left people were outside and immediately killed me. I thought the same, how could they of known. Not really fun since im pretty sure everything was on cd
@@sickphukka384 ? When you leave a corrupted, you spawn in with a shield you can easily just mount and ride away they didn’t “instantly kill you” the second you left, you messed up because you’re a noob
stalker ratting gets boring, but much better than doing solo's, especially as a new player. you can chain 3-5 dungeons in 30 minutes making on average a much higher amount of fame and silver per dungeon. as long as you dont hit the shrine, you are very unlikely to be invaded, and as long as you reset every 30 minutes, that number never stacks, meaning your making much more fame/silver with almost the exact same risk of being killed as you do if you don't wait the 90 seconds... There are extensive testing to compare, 7.0, 7.1, 8.0, and 8.1 maps to stalker corrupted and the cd's win by a huge margin.. Now if you are more experienced and dont mind risking higher level of gear, the slayer's are even better, but we are talking a 150k set vs a 3 mil set. so pick your poison. the downside is that cd's do get very boring, but i just knock out 30-60 minutes a day and average 1.5-3m just from that. By just doing this and farming/crafting for another hour a day, i pay for 3 accounts premium, all of the gucci sets i want, and w/e else i need very easily. In two hours of focus econ a day, i pull around 25-30 mil a week which is good cuz i ganking in 7.3 sets which doesnt feel great to die in lol
I play 2 hours a day making 3m . No risk no transport no market trading. So for 7×3=21mil weakly in this half of silver is fixed even i don't play game. And trying to reach 30 mil per week (2 hours only) will able to get it after 2month definitely.
@@sourabhkumar1338 Exactly. Its actually not that hard to get rich in this game. You just have to be consistent, and try to learn how to do things better.
Wt set u take in stalker level nd if suppose ur getting invaded in stalker isnt losing the loot a bit costly.. also u can enter stalker from bz/rz only i suppose so travel back s also risky
@@Future_Commander go out of caerleon. red zones all around, so less likely to get ganked. log in, see how many hostiles there are on map(swords besides mini map) if less than 5 i go find a corrupted. Its not very costly. i wear 4.1, 4.2 and a 4.1 cape or thet cape. 4.1: greataxe, merc jacket, scholar cowl, soldier boots, 2 catfish, 6 t4 poisons. there are other builds but this one is cheap and effecient. Around 1 in 15 chance to be invaded. Ive gone a week before without being invaded. If you get invaded just try to pop crystals. I usually can. So i may die 1 in 70 or something like that. But its a 150k set, and im averaging 1.5-3 mil and hour, so it def pays for itself. Honestly it gets boring but is a great way to make a lot of fame and silver solo. Not much risk to it once you get the hang of it
So what about the ! That appears when someone sees you enter a dungeon does that not work if their invisible? Has someone tested this cuz I never even thought about that
So the problem with popping maps in the mart portal is that when I pop t7 it gives me a solo dungeon in T5 zone and when I go there and do the dungeon I only fight t5 mobs and t5 bosses. This is super weird
I mean i dove 2 players clearing a tier 7 dungon caught em at the epic boss, killed one and very nearly killed the 2nd, and i suck at PVP and i did it with a low spec 4.1 set, its all aboit opportunities and a little luck sometimes
I'm someone who is actually terrible at pvp so I do this content often. With that said, if you go into a bz or rz, you shouldn't feel safe. That's the appealing part of the game for many people. SBI do away with the dungeon closing and buff the loot
I do flat 7 maps because fame is close to t8 but more likely to make a profit? I've gotten 1 legendary chest this week that had 70k loot and 60k in silver bags :(
Unless the diver go inside first and check the mob have a sword logo on them, even the butterflies is disappear, they can just form a group and set guys outside while one guy going in, you still boned.
Found this after doing T8 Maps with a friend We got a total of 2.70m under 3 hours, the maps we used kept on paying for itself as a drop. When I go solos, I only do flat random T8 Dungeons and get an average of 15m/week. You learn along the way how to avoid getting dived and fighting back. The real threat is bringing your loot back to the safe zone. If you are doing it just out of the towns, you're fine 99% of the time. But if you use BZ Banks/HQs, you're only hope is to find the nearest Ava Portal and calculate the risk. I personally never have an issue with the second option but I can't say it's totally safe either.
Worst thing about solo dungeons is that you're usually using a ~1350ip tier 8/equivalent set and if a 4.1 rat comes in at the wrong time, you're fucked.
@@brianfeddersen3528 You do not need to use 1350ip, I can do t8's in 1k ip if I want to (depends on the items you're using), 1100 is a comfortable IP, if you have 1350 IP you can damn near solo group dungeons let alone do solos, and 4.1 rats coming? The dungeons close after 90 seconds, you can get to the dungeon invis'd if you pop it in town. I didn't bother listing out any reasons because I didn't think it was necessary, anyone who's played the game and done solos for a while can tell that this comment is nonsense but for you considering you're maybe new or something, those are the reasons why.
@@placeholderplaceholder4817 Ok not new never really got into the pve side of it as this was my first mmo that I focused on PVP in. The reason I remarked was the condecesnion and holier than thou way your initial remarks read as. Text sucks to translate intent but clarity helps. Thank you for the clarification and apologies if I misread how you intended to respond.
I find I have a lot of luck using flat 7 maps out of Caerleon. The fame is worse, but the loot can be pretty good. Then again, I've had flat 6 legendaries bone me with 60k. Why even have them in the game if they are going to drop such garbage. IMO they need a table for minimum/max value dropped for chests. Based on rarity and Tier of dungeon. The rng system is fucking awful.
@@Pupixario dungeon loot is dependent on items sold to the black market, more players online means more players selling to the black market but also more people doing dungeons, less people online means less selling to the BM and less doing dungeons so you kinda gotta find the sweet spot to do dungeons
Tier 5 dungeons are the same, just lower end crap. Opening a chest to get 50 silver worth of items in it just feels bad lol. You run enough of them and you get the lucky big chest for 150k item inside. At least in the yellow zone no one cares what you are doing. I had 1 guy in 50 runs show up in my dungeon, he invited me to a group and we cleared it together.
I just play solo dungeon in yz for few day, yes i get my first premium from this, just how lucky you are, sometime I get 500k from purple chest and 20k from golden chest 😅
The whole emphasis on it "feeling awful" is kinda dumb. This is only true if you go in with the mindset of buying one map a time and expecting profit every run. And i doubt anyone does this. If you buy 10 maps, run them, you are pretty much garantueed to make a good profit like you mentioned. You can apply the logic you used to almost anything, and everything would "feel awful".. it really makes no sense in terms of how people play this game.
No unless it was a hacker I hade ppl gank me after 10 m inside in black zone in solo dungeon... I made a million just running four dungeons in the black zone two or one of them was legendary..t5 and t6 I always make 50k+ or 100k+ back using mapz but a slow grind
Corrupted dungeons on average give me 250k, including the other guys loot, I mean it’s mostly the lower end. And my gear cost 50k, the downside you die more, but it feels rewarding.

90s = 25% slower….. yeah but it can also save you 400 - 600k depending on build. Well worth the time.
8:00 but not only that, if a mobile player try’s and open a solo dungeon map, they get taken to the world map, and if someone isn’t playing on a pretty nice phone that has been designed for slightly massive data packets, you will more than likely crash, and there is also the chance that you can be found while your literally crashed out and unable to do a thing until you log back in after like a 30 second load time.

I have been chain running low solo's for like 3 days, maybe a total of 15 hours and made around 20m. Not sure if that is good or not but my bank is filled to the brim with T7 2 enhanced weapons and armor and when I say brim I mean brim. I cant put anything else in there. (I say 20m but its more of what the value is of my banked items, only have 3m silver and the gear i use to run solos is valued at about 1.5m and the mount is about 500k) I have a total of 4 days of gameplay but a lot of that was leveling gathering and tool making. Got the large majority of the 10,000,000 mob fame achievement in the 15 hours too. I found 1 weapon were I never need to stop and can full clear a solo in like 3-4 minutes (tier 5 enhancement 2 solo maps)
Tbh Journey back is super important when you go to far places and return back to your city. And with the cost it is not a big problem
the main problem with solo dungeons is that they are high risk but there is absolutely no reward
i always do t8 solo dungeons and it never covers the cost of map + food/potions that i use
green and blue chests usually have 10-20k in them which is just absolutely garbage, purples never go over 50k and i get maybe 5 gold chest out of every 100 chest and even they barely go over 100k
This is so true, and doing solo dungeons without premium is very punishing. You could still get decent loot but due to the lack of premium bonus, it feels really unrewarding. Heck, I got loot worth of blue chest from a purple chest once in a while.
@@nd2020 Should I do pvp in corrupted dgs or solo open world gank?
@@henriquecastejonprimo2928 I do lots of corrupted but with premium, anyway if you get a gear worth 60-50k, you generally make 200k profit if you kill the guy and get all 3 chests.
You can die like 5 times for each time you win to break even.
And the fame in corrupted dungeons is decent.
@@henriquecastejonprimo2928 I mean 90% of the time I get at least 200k profit, sometimes it’s much higher and sometimes you get garbage but it’s rare.
i want SBI to add something like a solo HCE, but instead of racing the timer you clear floors 1 by 1 each subsequent floor being harder than the last and once you down, you're out of there and you have to restart
@kosmosrebell they advertised the game as "play how you want", and a lot of people want to play solo so that's alienating a large playerbase

Some time you are feeling why solo dungeon is tough for you because you are new.
Even when I was new its really tough for me I fall many times, unable to kill some bosses, missing golden chest not able to kill Boss.
But now I am doing group dungeon as solo lol.
@@sourabhkumar1338 he never said he was having a hard time with solo dungeons?! What you on about.
Actually thats why normal expedition exists i suppose which u can do only solo...
I’m a newish player and I recently started running t7 maps. I buy them for 15-20k and on average I’m making about 100k per dungeon. I’ve not ONCE had one not atleast pay for itself, and I’ve had some make me as much as 700k. T7 maps seem to be the best bang for your buck
Correct me if im wrong but the butterflies dissapear once some entered
Also the best Map u can buy for dungeons are flat tier 7 ones trust me i ran 800+ dungeons in the last months the maps cost arround 20k you make over 20k 100% of the time
If u want it completly safe buy flat tier 5 maps and do them in the yellow zone in my last test i bought like 60 of them for arround 300k and made over 5m in return
Also don't forget the fact that you can use 8.3 in yz with no worries. So can just run over the mobs.
you can just run over the mobs anyways with a good setup.
Good video man, i loved it. keep going king 👑
and big lips good video it will help of the new players in the game .Thanks
I've done a batch of 10x 7.1 solo dungeons. Roughly 1M spent on maps... Got back 500k from it in total. I don't know if bad luck, but it didn't feel worth it at all. Back to gathering.
7.1 is the worst combination for solo dungeon , you would have been better off doing 6.1 or tier 7 dungeons
Also you know if there are invisible people when u dismount cuz it will signal it the same as with normal people the red exclamation sign.
if you want consistent repaying maps do t7 solo dungon maps they repay themself 100% of the time (avg income with a slower build then he uses is around 1 mil/ hour for me)

Butterflies is good. There is four colours of dungeon in all zone from lv 4 and up .(green 25%)/ yellow 45% / purple 55% /gold 75 % it is a chance that you will get very good loot in the dungeons .solo or group.
some time solo is that good it takes only one solo to full up my bag. yellow zone or blue zone
i am play Albion every day look me up for party to join.

I noticed that game server time has something to do with solo dungeon map spawn location. Try using a map at the at the 6th minute mark (xx:06, xx:12. xx:18, xx:24 and so on). If you are in your hideout map, once the time hits the 6min mark, count 30 seconds then use a map. 75% of the time it spawns in the same zone where you are. 15% it will spawn at the next zones but near the exits and 10% just at the middle of the next zone. I am not sure if it works with other people but it is what I have been doing I am having good results. You can try it and let me know if it works. Some of my guild mates are having same result as mine and some are not.
Yo that might actually be a lit tip, ty I'll try it out
@@1Mandacaru how the trick?
I've made multiple alts for practicing and trying multiple money making methods so I can spend millions investing on my main. And through all that, in my opinion the best way to get a good chunk of money early on is faction warfare but it gives practically no fame so solo dungeons are also an ideal way to go in the early game.
Early game do solo in yellow and gathering (try to reach t6) after that go to bz do some dungeon.
Wdym by no Fame, the books you get from Faction chests are op

everyday I always do a solo dungeon and I am still new in the game and I wear tier V equipments and Solo Dungeon is quite good for me because I get many loots and in 1 day I always do 5 to 10 solo dungeon in Brent knoll or in Mase Knoll and there's a time I face a player who's already in a the solo dungeon but luckily that player and me always end up in a party and sometimes I do a Corrupted Dungeon my limit is 1 to 2 Corrupted Dungeon because I don't want to push my luck too much or else I might invade other players who is higher level than me and get me killed
Just do what you find fun in the game man! I hope you keep playing!
I have been testing t7 solo maps for past 2 days. map costs 20k And in every single dungeon I have gotten more in just in money packs. Most dungeon have been around 200k in loot and lowest one has been 39k highest around 500k hell yeah they are worth it
Try t8 dungeons,way better than 7.0
do you need premium to get that much loot?
If you want play safe fame+money=hce.
First u will loose silver in hce once u understand all the mechanism then u will make really nice amount of silver with fame. I do low tier hce make 1m+ silver in 1 hour without any kind traveling and fear.

I'm fairly new to the game and the other day i thought i try my first solo dungeon map in black zone, went to the portal town whatever and took the buff and headed to my dungeon. Then thought i'd wait the 90 secs out...within 20 secs of entering, a dude came in and obviously i thought sh*t so i exited thinking of running away, then there were a whole crew of 5 gankers waiting outside and killed me in an instant. Like....how did they find me ??? I took the buff at the portal...
They cross the zone non-stop and find solo dungeon entrances checking each one of them, sending 1 person in to scare you to go out for an easy kill. You got unlucky but not by much because it's full with these groups and they do it non-stop.
I entered a corrupted dungeon and was in it for 30 or so mins, the moment i left people were outside and immediately killed me. I thought the same, how could they of known. Not really fun since im pretty sure everything was on cd
@@sickphukka384 you have a bubble when you leave the corrupted so that didn't happen.
@@sickphukka384 they couldn't have killed you immediately because you had a bubble. You should have just mounted and walked away

stalker ratting gets boring, but much better than doing solo's, especially as a new player. you can chain 3-5 dungeons in 30 minutes making on average a much higher amount of fame and silver per dungeon. as long as you dont hit the shrine, you are very unlikely to be invaded, and as long as you reset every 30 minutes, that number never stacks, meaning your making much more fame/silver with almost the exact same risk of being killed as you do if you don't wait the 90 seconds... There are extensive testing to compare, 7.0, 7.1, 8.0, and 8.1 maps to stalker corrupted and the cd's win by a huge margin.. Now if you are more experienced and dont mind risking higher level of gear, the slayer's are even better, but we are talking a 150k set vs a 3 mil set. so pick your poison. the downside is that cd's do get very boring, but i just knock out 30-60 minutes a day and average 1.5-3m just from that. By just doing this and farming/crafting for another hour a day, i pay for 3 accounts premium, all of the gucci sets i want, and w/e else i need very easily. In two hours of focus econ a day, i pull around 25-30 mil a week which is good cuz i ganking in 7.3 sets which doesnt feel great to die in lol
I play 2 hours a day making 3m . No risk no transport no market trading. So for 7×3=21mil weakly in this half of silver is fixed even i don't play game. And trying to reach 30 mil per week (2 hours only) will able to get it after 2month definitely.
@@sourabhkumar1338 Exactly. Its actually not that hard to get rich in this game. You just have to be consistent, and try to learn how to do things better.
@@sourabhkumar1338 wt do u do
Wt set u take in stalker level nd if suppose ur getting invaded in stalker isnt losing the loot a bit costly.. also u can enter stalker from bz/rz only i suppose so travel back s also risky
@@Future_Commander go out of caerleon. red zones all around, so less likely to get ganked. log in, see how many hostiles there are on map(swords besides mini map) if less than 5 i go find a corrupted. Its not very costly. i wear 4.1, 4.2 and a 4.1 cape or thet cape. 4.1: greataxe, merc jacket, scholar cowl, soldier boots, 2 catfish, 6 t4 poisons. there are other builds but this one is cheap and effecient. Around 1 in 15 chance to be invaded. Ive gone a week before without being invaded. If you get invaded just try to pop crystals. I usually can. So i may die 1 in 70 or something like that. But its a 150k set, and im averaging 1.5-3 mil and hour, so it def pays for itself. Honestly it gets boring but is a great way to make a lot of fame and silver solo. Not much risk to it once you get the hang of it
hi bro,
regarding Pop map solo dungeon
the butterfly effect will disappear once someone enters the dungeon 🥰
What method would you suggest to make silver for someone that has a couple million silver.
i did 25 t8 solos and ONE time i brought all my maps accidantally and got ganked by 4 people and died
tks for the data!
So what about the ! That appears when someone sees you enter a dungeon does that not work if their invisible? Has someone tested this cuz I never even thought about that
I literally cleared several 8.0 maps and got only runes and bags or silver 🙃😂 Was reevaluating my life and logged off
Back in the old days, they were good. But now......
So the problem with popping maps in the mart portal is that when I pop t7 it gives me a solo dungeon in T5 zone and when I go there and do the dungeon I only fight t5 mobs and t5 bosses. This is super weird
its not ok, when i use t8 map i fight t8 mobs in a dungeon
Red zone faction flagged or blackzone solo dungeon?
You can still very easily get dived, there’s lots of people that do that close to the bz cities
I'm almost positive that the butterflies leave as soon as someone enters
I mean i dove 2 players clearing a tier 7 dungon caught em at the epic boss, killed one and very nearly killed the 2nd, and i suck at PVP and i did it with a low spec 4.1 set, its all aboit opportunities and a little luck sometimes
You don't lose 25% of what you don't even have. Time is money, but dying is less money.
Hey mate I'm looking to min max one weapon tree and solely focus on that for pve PvP and zvz, are you able to recommend any?
Frost, axe, spear or swords
I'm someone who is actually terrible at pvp so I do this content often. With that said, if you go into a bz or rz, you shouldn't feel safe. That's the appealing part of the game for many people. SBI do away with the dungeon closing and buff the loot
Pvp is the easiest thing to do, Just have to play more
Use miner work boots. No more pvp for u

Very hard to disagree with you, my friend. Nice video.
bruh i've gotten like 15 uncommon chests in a row. i might stop doing solo dungeons
For solo dungeon t6 dungeon is the best in silver and easy to clear red or black sometimes 1.5 mill per 2 hour or 3 mill per 2 hour
Yeah. T6.1 is better than t7 flat. I totally agree with u.
I do flat 7 maps because fame is close to t8 but more likely to make a profit? I've gotten 1 legendary chest this week that had 70k loot and 60k in silver bags :(
you know butterflies disappear?
Unless the diver go inside first and check the mob have a sword logo on them, even the butterflies is disappear, they can just form a group and set guys outside while one guy going in, you still boned.
How about gathering in 2022, in the roads, in the royals(redzone) and in theblackzone
Great video
Found this after doing T8 Maps with a friend
We got a total of 2.70m under 3 hours, the maps we used kept on paying for itself as a drop. When I go solos, I only do flat random T8 Dungeons and get an average of 15m/week. You learn along the way how to avoid getting dived and fighting back.
The real threat is bringing your loot back to the safe zone. If you are doing it just out of the towns, you're fine 99% of the time. But if you use BZ Banks/HQs, you're only hope is to find the nearest Ava Portal and calculate the risk. I personally never have an issue with the second option but I can't say it's totally safe either.
@kosmosrebell nope he can do with like for expensive item . But for other it's not worth. U have to risk.
Holy shit its 90 seconds? I have been setting a timer for 60 every time and I guess I just been lucky
Worst thing about solo dungeons is that you're usually using a ~1350ip tier 8/equivalent set and if a 4.1 rat comes in at the wrong time, you're fucked.
There is so much wrong with this comment
@@placeholderplaceholder4817 and here we are seeing you randomly snark without clarifying why. Do you seek to troll or just that much of a hypocrite?
@@brianfeddersen3528 You do not need to use 1350ip, I can do t8's in 1k ip if I want to (depends on the items you're using), 1100 is a comfortable IP, if you have 1350 IP you can damn near solo group dungeons let alone do solos, and 4.1 rats coming? The dungeons close after 90 seconds, you can get to the dungeon invis'd if you pop it in town.
I didn't bother listing out any reasons because I didn't think it was necessary, anyone who's played the game and done solos for a while can tell that this comment is nonsense but for you considering you're maybe new or something, those are the reasons why.
@@placeholderplaceholder4817 Ok not new never really got into the pve side of it as this was my first mmo that I focused on PVP in. The reason I remarked was the condecesnion and holier than thou way your initial remarks read as. Text sucks to translate intent but clarity helps. Thank you for the clarification and apologies if I misread how you intended to respond.
Most of the PvE I did as it were was in groups so kinda unrelated to the video to be fair but again clarification makes sense haha
I find I have a lot of luck using flat 7 maps out of Caerleon. The fame is worse, but the loot can be pretty good.
Then again, I've had flat 6 legendaries bone me with 60k. Why even have them in the game if they are going to drop such garbage.
IMO they need a table for minimum/max value dropped for chests. Based on rarity and Tier of dungeon. The rng system is fucking awful.
Tell me how I can make money fast to get premium? Played 3 month and still don't got it
the loot is heavily dependent on the time you do them, doing dungeons 1utc and doing dungeons 10utc are big differences
Mannnnnn! I thought something was goofy like that...
Can you elaborate on that? I think it makes sense.
@@Pupixario dungeon loot is dependent on items sold to the black market, more players online means more players selling to the black market but also more people doing dungeons, less people online means less selling to the BM and less doing dungeons so you kinda gotta find the sweet spot to do dungeons
@@user-uz5rw3ih2w Thanks for explaining
Actually butterflies disappear after someone enters dungeon
If u do like t6 maps and above in the bz it's worth it.
So, basically solo dungeon maps outside of portal towns are a good way to bait out gankers. Hm.
Sometimes I just enter a map Infront other to lure them inside,it works every time
Tier 5 dungeons are the same, just lower end crap. Opening a chest to get 50 silver worth of items in it just feels bad lol. You run enough of them and you get the lucky big chest for 150k item inside. At least in the yellow zone no one cares what you are doing. I had 1 guy in 50 runs show up in my dungeon, he invited me to a group and we cleared it together.
When someone enters thos butterflies disappear.
man just do corrupted it's safer and give more loot
Best way is doing SD in Av roads.
I just play solo dungeon in yz for few day, yes i get my first premium from this, just how lucky you are, sometime I get 500k from purple chest and 20k from golden chest 😅
The whole emphasis on it "feeling awful" is kinda dumb. This is only true if you go in with the mindset of buying one map a time and expecting profit every run. And i doubt anyone does this.
If you buy 10 maps, run them, you are pretty much garantueed to make a good profit like you mentioned.
You can apply the logic you used to almost anything, and everything would "feel awful".. it really makes no sense in terms of how people play this game.
Got a rare chest in t6 dungeon map and its only worth 100-150k :(
am lucky enough to survive you last time
like 2 maps away from fort sterling hahaha
I've been making around 100k an hour and I'd say that's very good already
All these people saying how much they make on solo dungeons don't realize that it's chump change.
Butterflies disappeares at the moment you will enter the dungeon
Objectively If u wanna solo dungeon for money make sure u do many dungeons at once and wait for that lottery to hit.
Nobody's checking solo dungeon because they think players dont do solos bow because of open world mobs fame and drop boost
No unless it was a hacker I hade ppl gank me after 10 m inside in black zone in solo dungeon... I made a million just running four dungeons in the black zone two or one of them was legendary..t5 and t6 I always make 50k+ or 100k+ back using mapz but a slow grind
Ahora saco mucho menos plata que en el pasado, creo que introdujeron algun nerf.
Bro how to find a dungeon with silver 250k+
Do I need to buy dungeon scroll?
go into t8 blackzone and get lucky xD
Corrupted dungeons on average give me 250k, including the other guys loot, I mean it’s mostly the lower end.
And my gear cost 50k, the downside you die more, but it feels rewarding.
T8 maps are not worthy for price&reward, only t7
Nice !!
Solo dungeons need to close instantly. In fact invading dungeons should probably be removed entirely as a mechanic.
@BigLipsMcgee I did a 7.1 map, got a gold chest and from it received a crisp 20k. Dont know what happened but imo. F*** solo dungeons
My problem is that dungeons are so fucking boring, i can do 2 max, then I've to rest
@kosmosrebell 100% 😂 like i could play 10 hours nonstop, but if i even touch a solo i'm instantly burned out
Corrupted is way more fun. But i can enjoy the tier 8 dungeons sometime 😏
for a solo there just is not a lot of other options this game needs some new content
