Can i ask you to include common prices for maps into guide? I can run almost any mods (except the craziest ones), but i wonder sometimes - instead of spending currency to reroll map, wouldnt be better to run it as it is and buy another map for currency saved? What percentage of map'scost should be spent on rerolling it, generally?

I won't do this. The resource is neutral and I don't wish for people to reference it as a source for map prices. These prices are for the communities of each league to determine.

Ok, tell then, at least, what amount of currency (in % of map cost) is supposed to be spent for reroll? I think percentages wont affect neutrality in any way...

Depends on how much you have that you can spend on map rolling...

It doesnt matter how many currency i've got, because it could be spend for buying new maps isntead of rerolling existing maps again and again.

There are a lot of factors that go into deciding to reroll - so many that imo it comes down to experience and preference.

On the more desirable maps, it could be up to 50% of the value (as the mods for some maps can triple the expected drop rate if rolled correctly, but this is also balanced off against improving what roll you already have). For others, it would be less than 10%. It really is up to you to decide.

The "percentage" you're looking for is the study of someone else's post on the forums (somewhere in this thread even). They have produced a spreadsheet where you input details and it works out if its worth rerolling.

It sounds like what you're looking for.

Why is it so important to have a "map pool"?

Im just about to start using my first maps. Think i have around 7 lvl 66 maps. Been reading some post saying its important to have x amount of maps. Why is this so important? I mean i use the maps I have when i run out I farm som more??

That isnt guaranteed. Sometimes you get several maps per one, sometimes - none. IF you have just few maps, unlucky streak can just deplete your pool and you'll be left without any maps.

Thanks alot for this detailed guide.

Learned alot about mapping because of this :)

Wonderful job here!

Would you update the part on the affixes rating now that some of them are removed or reworked? thanks a lot!
