Get Rich Fast in PoE 2 Patch 0.2.0 Leagues

Hey, exiles! Patch 0.2.0, Dawn of the Hunt, hit on April 4, 2025, and with every new Path of Exile 2 league comes a glorious economy reset—your chance to stack hundreds of Divine Orbs in week one. Whether you're blitzing the campaign, juicing maps, or flipping the market, getting rich fast is all about strategy. Inspired by some killer tips floating around (like that YouTube goldmine), here's your no-nonsense guide to raking in the loot early in Patch 0.2.0 leagues. Let's turn those exalted piles into divine stacks!  

Your first character sets the pace—rush Acts 1-6 to hit level 60-65 and unlock maps ASAP. New acts in Patch 0.2.0 (Act 4 not confirmed) may mean more story to savor, but speed's the name of the game here.  

Focus on progression—skip side fluff, grab only better gear (vendor the rest), and don't linger.  

Snag all passives—check your map for “+” icons near bosses or loot for weapon set points.  

Prioritize speed: Stack movement speed (2% nodes add up to 40-50% on the tree) and grab uniques like Thrillsteel (20% skill speed, 10% movespeed via Onslaught).

Why It Works: Faster campaign = earlier maps = quicker loot. Patch 0.2.0's new ascendancies (Warrior, Mercenary) might boost early power—pick a zippy class like Monk or Ranger.

Hit maps at 65 and sustain them to unlock your Atlas tree fast—currency flows from efficiency here.  

Rush quests (e.g., 10 Tier 1s)—don't full-clear unless you're dry on waystones. Aim 3 levels above your own for max XP (Tier 3-4 at 65).  

Early Atlas Setup: Grab “20% increased waystone quantity” (3 points) and “100% rarity” nodes—keeps drops steady. Slam transmutation/augmentation orbs on every waystone for +90% drop chance.

Patch 0.2.0 Twist: New tower changes might tweak sustain—watch the March 27 livestream for hints. Higher tiers unlock faster profits.

With your Atlas tree maxed (carry it across characters!), spec into currency farms. Here's the goldmine:  

At level 85-90, run area level 80 Trials with Scribe Ultimatums (12-15 mins each, 4/hour).  

Drops 3-4 soul cores per run—Aszkapa's 1,300 Exalted (multi-Divine early league), commons net 0.5-1 Divine. Plus ultimatum fragments (Cowardly Fate: 100 Exalted).  

Profit: 3-5 Divines/hour, up to 15 with luck. Patch 0.2.0's balance might tweak drop rates—stockpile early!

Spec Atlas for breaches: 50% more clasps, 40% density, extra breaches. Juice with towers (tablets for 8-10 breach maps, +rarity/quantity).  

Stack waystones (400%+ drop chance) and Distilled Greed for insane loot—multi-Divine runs with 10 breaches.  

Patch 0.2.0 Note: New mechanics might boost density.

Copper Citadels drop 3-4 crisis fragments (Ancient: multi-Divine, Weathered: 1 Divine).  

Use 400-1200% waystone drop chance (slam exalts/corruptions) + tower tablets for “increased waystones found.” Distill for rarity—guarantees big hauls.  

Profit: 10 Divines per run if maxed. New endgame in Patch 0.2.0 could add chase fragments—farm fast!

The economy's your playground—exploit it:  

Divine Converting: Exalted inflate (80 to 600+ league-end). Convert to Divines or assets (soul cores, fragments) to hold value—swap back as needed.  

Flipping: Buy low (soul cores at 60 Exalted), sell high (69 Exalted). Perfect Jeweler's Orbs (750 Exalted currency exchange, 800 trade site) net easy profits. Patch 0.2.0's new uniques might spike early—flip those too!

Equip 100% increased rarity (rings: 30-50%, helm/boots) over max damage—more rares, more sales. Pick up:  

Bows with +4 projectile skills, attack speed.  

Boots with movespeed + resists.  

Rings with multi-damage (lightning/physical) + resists—slam rares for Divine-tier rolls.

Patch 0.2.0's unique buffs could flood the market—sell quick!

New ascendancies and crafting tweaks (bench rumors) might ease gearing. Breach/ritual trees still rule, but Trial of Sekma's relic RNG stays shaky—skip it unless buffed. Economy resets mean day-one moves win big—act fast!  

Speedrun to maps, sustain smart, juice breaches/citadels, and flip the market—you'll be swimming in 100+ Divines week one. Patch 0.2.0's chaos is your goldmine—get in early, exile, and watch the riches roll!
