Why Temple Folly Shrines Are the Ultimate Farming Strategy

The Temple Folly strategy combines False Temple Echoes packed with shrines and Lost Wood Folly maps that juice up surrounding echoes with woven enemy packs. This combo delivers a supreme pizza of rewards—XP, uniques, Memory Amber, and more—making it ideal for players who love grinding with purpose. Here's why it shines:
Self-Sustaining: Generates enough Memory Amber to keep farming indefinitely.
Build-Friendly: Works for any build, especially faster-moving ones, with shrine buffs boosting power.
High Corruption Viable: Run higher corruption for better loot without breaking a sweat.
Repetitive but Efficient: Same two maps mean you master layouts fast, though visual variety takes a hit.

Step-by-Step Guide to Temple Folly Farming

Step 0: Max Out Woven Passives

Before diving in, invest in Woven Passives to enhance your farming efficiency. You don't need a full tree, but 15-20 points will get you started. Complete all available Woven Echoes to earn points. Check out our recommended 20-point starter and 50-point full Weaver trees for optimal setups.

Step 1: Stock Up on Echoes

Head to Mask and purchase Lost Wood Folly (3,000 Amber) and False Temple Echoes (750 Amber each) at rank three. Aim for a 2:1 ratio of False Temples to Lost Wood Follies, with a few extra Temples for flexibility. If you're low on Amber, grab one Lost Wood Folly and at least four False Temples for a budget setup.

Step 2: Pick Your Timeline

Choose a timeline with desirable boss drops, blessings, or echo rewards. Empowered timelines are your best bet for maximum returns, so push them even if you barely survive. Timeline bosses and random echo rewards in False Temples add extra value.

Step 3: Find a Cemetery

Run normal echoes until you locate a Cemetery or Cemetery of Reweaving map. Equip Woven and Loomed Riches imprint sockets to speed this up. Use the Cemetery's altar to recycle unwanted echoes for a chance at more Lost Wood Follies or False Temples.

Step 4: Set Up Your Echo Web

Budget Setup: Place one Lost Wood Folly on the edge of your echo web, surrounded by False Temples. Run the Folly to juice the Temples, then farm them for Amber profit (e.g., 5,500 Amber spent, 7,500 gained).
Efficient Setup: Once you have enough Amber, create a daisy chain of Lost Wood Follies flanked by False Temples. This is time-efficient and lets you extend the chain as you farm more Amber.

Step 5: Add Prophecies and Farm

If you're in the Circle of Fortune, grab prophecies that trigger on rares, champions, or echo completions. Run Lost Wood Follies first to empower surrounding False Temples, then farm the juiced Temples for loot explosions. Focus on rare monsters, champions, and woven packs for the best drops.

Step 6: Reload and Repeat

When echoes run dry, hit a Cemetery to add more to your chain or start fresh. Restock on Follies, Temples, and prophecies with your Amber profits. If your timeline boss or Orabus is ready, farm them for extra rewards, but complete all echoes first to avoid timeline resets.

Mastering the Maps: Lost Wood Folly and False Temple

Lost Wood Folly

This map features three Fates bosses roaming a dense monster field. Your goal is to race to each boss for their Woven uniques, like the high-DPS Scissors of Atropos. Skip regular monsters and focus on bosses, Nemesis, Exiles, or caches. Completing the Folly adds woven enemy packs to adjacent False Temples.

False Temple

False Temples are large, shrine-filled indoor maps. Activate shrines to spawn an ambushing champion (usually after 1/3 to 1/2 of the shrines). Don't leave after killing the champion—farm the entire map to maximize shrine buffs for loot, XP, and gold. Follow this path:
Run the outer square first, checking for shrines and woven packs.
Wiggle through the bottom section for extra shrines.
Cut through the middle, exploring branches without backtracking.
Maintain momentum by focusing on rares, champions, and woven enemies. Avoid wasting shrine buffs on Nemesis eggs unless you have an item ready to slot quickly.

Juicing Tips for Maximum Rewards

Warden's Echo Passive: Adds rare packs to the dungeon boss, dropping uniques like Peak of the Mountain with legendary potential.
Abyssal Trap: Spawns occasional Shades of Orabus for extra loot, especially at 200+ corruption.
Prime Weaver/Woven Treasure Passives: Boost Weaver's Will items, often yielding 20-24 quality drops.
Fury and Fortune: Increases rune and glyph drops but toughens enemies—mitigated by shrines.
Zerich's Aid (Merchants Guild): 7% chance for Zeric to spawn, tripling gold drops.

Optimize Your Loot Filter

A tight loot filter is crucial. Use Last Epoch's LP sorting to hide low-value uniques (e.g., rings with 1-2 LP) and highlight only top-tier exalted items. This keeps you moving fast without stopping to check junk.

FAQs About Temple Folly Farming

What builds work best for this strategy?

Faster-moving builds excel, but any build benefits from shrine buffs, making it safe and effective for all playstyles.

Can I run this on normal timelines?

Yes, but empowered timelines offer better rewards. Push to empowered as soon as you can handle them.

How much Amber do I need to start?

A budget setup requires one Lost Wood Folly (3,000 Amber) and four False Temples (3,000 Amber). The strategy generates enough Amber to scale up.

Is this better than other farming methods?

It's the best for mixed rewards (XP, loot, Amber). For specific goals like upgrading uniques, try Nemesis Towers instead.

How do I avoid wasting shrine buffs?

Activate a few shrines before heavy combat, skip regular enemies, and avoid Nemesis eggs unless you can slot an item quickly.
