- open t1-t6 tier map, play until to the elder area, choose one of t7, t8, t9, t10 to get orbs.
- after obtaining tier 1-5 shaper's orb, use the tier 2 shaper's orb to shape t2 map that can get the chains that bind, shape t3 map for headhunter, and t5 map. the tier 1 and tier 4 shaper's orb does not need to be shaped to avoid influence the drop rate of tier 2 and tier 3. you can use the upgraded map exchange for poe currency.
- play other dark gold maps as more as possible.
- after getting 5 tiers shaper's orb, shape the t7-t10 map, the solution is to sell 3 master cartographer's sextant and orb of scouring to the vendor for cartographer's seal.
