Figured I'd post this question here, vs. making a new thread: Can anyone confirm what is going on with the masters when the new(er) leagues roll out? Will they also be wiped, or is progress with them a separate component that is saved/carried over? Or is this detail not yet revealed? Also +1 for the climb. This is where I used to farm for them before Tidal's were cool.	Posted by Busta_SMurk on Sep 10, 2014, 6:09:18 PM Quote this Post
As far as i know it's not revealed yet. But if i might guess i'd say that the reputation will be carried over to the permanent leagues. I wonder what would happen to the hideouts tho ... i guess the one from the temporary leagues won't exist and the decorations will be stored in the hideout stash.

According to Chris: " When the new challenge leagues end, your hideout stashes will be merged with the destination leagues (Rampage with Standard, Beyond with Hardcore). Your favour totals will be added together. The highest reputation value with each master will be used. http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/998489/page/1#p8475554 =^[.]^= =^[.]^= basic (happy/amused) cheetahmoticon: Whiskers/eye/tear-streak/nose/tear-streak/eye/ whiskers =@[.]@= boggled / =>[.]<= annoyed or angry / ='[.]'= concerned / =0[.]o= confuzzled / =-[.]-= sad or sleepy / =[.]= dazzled / =^[.]~= wink / =~[.]^= naughty wink / =9[.]9= rolleyes #FourYearLie	Posted by Raycheetah on Sep 10, 2014, 6:53:10 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post

The Archives or the Catacombs are ideal for that because they give you the highest amounts of reputation per mission. working 100% tried on Climb. Thank you very much for this !!!

" KorgothBG wrote: You are right ! Since i'm testing the Climb now and the loading time for it is pretty fast i've decided to try this trick and the results are very promising! The loading time without a master is usually between 1.5 secs and 3 secs, if the loading time is 3.5 secs + there is always a master in! That way i was able to predict nearly 30 runs with 100% accuracy! I'll do some more testing and post results of course ;) I've been doing this a lot as well. Exiles and strongboxes seem to increase loading times considerably for me as well as masters.	Posted by bannedwagon on Sep 10, 2014, 7:11:02 PM Quote this Post

My personal favorite is the wetlands. It's nice and open, and corrupted areas can only spawn along the walls. When I finish leap slamming the perimeter, I'll quickly scan the rest of the area for a master. It seems to be quite efficient, and all the rares you get from corrupted areas and master quests can be used for chaos recipe. It's 2770 exp per master there though, so it could be higher.
