I also checked on some Act I character on NG+ I have, and Mapworks was accessible from first Town. I just checked the TT to see if I didn't overestimate the drop and I have to admit, I did a little bit, but in one run, I got around 20 uniques (including some Netherrealm weapons and lvl 99/105 set items), some skulls, gems and of course lot of trash. There are other maps hidden around in NG+, that do not spawn on first playthrough. Well, there are actually multiple dungeons that are available only on NG+ modes, Tarroch's Tomb is just by far the most notable one as it's the ultimate gear farm (and the ultimate challenge) in the game. But that was a long time ago - maybe thay patched it since then? It's interesting that the game played NG+ so different for you than for me. Also, I wasn't able to access the Mapworks in NG+ until I finished the storyline again. Originally posted by HiFive:I never got dozens of uniques from Tarroch's Tomb. But that was a long time ago - maybe thay patched it since then?īesides, it's just one dungeon - so it wasn't worth it to me to play NG+ just for that, after trying it a few times (trying NG+ a few times, that is - I did Tarroch's Tomb a lot of times just to make sure the drops weren't any different, because it surprised me they weren't). I never got dozens of uniques from Tarroch's Tomb.

PS: Even after moving to NG+, you can access Mapworks right from start, so that can be used to your advantage.


It's a shame you can't go back from NG+, but I still find it preferable to just do random maps and having no endgame challenge, basically doing TT on Elite is the ultimate challenge your character can pass. Well I am not sure I expected anything else, almost everything (except for few enemy-specific items) works this way.ĭifference is, that while during random map run (I usually get ones with increased drop chance) you might get 1 or 2 orange rarity item per map, after dealing with Tarroch's Tomb you get dozens of them. Originally posted by HiFive:You would think Tarroch's Tomb would drop really great stuff after all that hard work, but it's just the normal RNG of loot, as far as I've ever been able to tell.
