Situation:

- I have (uber)Elder on Shaper's Realm.

- My T16 Guardian maps are alternating between Elder and Shaper influence.

- I'm using the Completed Augmented maps Challenge as measurement.

- I'm running 1 Sextant/Zana mod/Influence so it should always count +3 to the Completed Augmented Maps Challenge.



Sextant + Bloodlines + Elder influenced maps give me +3 to Augmented Maps Challenge.

Sextant + Bloodlines + Shaper influenced maps give me +2 to Augmented Maps Challenge.



- Elder influenced maps have their map effects present inside the map and reward me with Elder base items plus award me with a +1 to the Completed Augmented Maps Challenge



- Shaper influenced maps DON'T have their map effects present and DON'T reward me with any Shaper base items. They also do NOT count for +1 to the Completed Augmented Maps Challenge.



Screenshots of my Completed Augmented Maps Challenge counter while doing 3 consecutive Maze of the Minotaur maps that use sextants/zanamod/influence:



Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Is this intended or a visual bug of Shaper's influence? Alright I've tested this with limited amount of guardian maps so I'm going to try and explain this as well as I can.Situation:- I haveon Shaper's Realm.- My T16 Guardian maps are alternating betweenandinfluence.- I'm using the Completed Augmented maps Challenge as measurement.- I'm running 1 Sextant/Zana mod/Influence so it should always count +3 to the Completed Augmented Maps Challenge.Sextant + Bloodlines +influenced maps give me +3 to Augmented Maps Challenge.Sextant + Bloodlines +influenced maps give me +2 to Augmented Maps Challenge.influenced maps have their map effects present inside the map and reward me withbase items plus award me with a +1 to the Completed Augmented Maps Challengeinfluenced maps DON'T have their map effects present and DON'T reward me with anybase items.

Bump for visibility - Anyone else experiencing the same thing? Should be quite easy to replicate. Posted by

can't speak towards challenge completion (I'm playing standard for this league), but when I run T16 elder guardian maps I never get any of the gameplay effects of elder influence. Cosmetically, the map has the fungal tentacles growing out of random places but I never get portals, never get tentacle whips, never get madness propogators, or any of the other things I see in elder influenced maps of any other tier. Similarly, my shaper influenced guardian maps are indistinguishable from regular guardian maps Posted by

Yeah, I'm experiencing this too. I haven't been paying that much attention, but I don't think I saw any elder/shaper mobs spawning in the t16s either. Maybe it's an intentional balance thing, and the influence exists only for Uber Elder spawning functionality (because we don't want our t16 maps having TOO much density, right? :^))



Regardless, it's pretty lame. Posted by

Which T16 elder guardian maps are you talking about? Do you mean ones that have actual elder guardians on them? Because if you get an elder guardian the boss spawn blocks all other possible elder influence rolls, like portals and stuff.

I had the same thing while I was building toward uber elder. The shaper influence on guardian maps didn't do anything (albeit guardians could drop shaper items - actually they can with elder influence also) but spread it to adjacent maps and it had shaper mobs etc. I didn't get the augmented completion for those t16 shaper maps. Elder influence worked fine.

Glad to see everyone else is experiencing the same thing. So Shaper influence on T16 guardian maps is purely cosmetic at this time... IGN - Bichlich
