2. 🗺️ Strongbox Farming Setup and Why Haunted Mansion is Chosen
· This guide covers the core setup for Strongbox farming and the optimal map selection.
· Delirious Maps are efficient because the Delirious area covers the entire map, allowing you to benefit from Strongbox Scarabs twice.
· It's recommended to roll Delirious Maps with an Orb of Alchemy and an Exalted Orb to achieve 6 mods and at least 80% map quantity.
· Haunted Mansion is highly time-efficient because strongboxes are densely packed, allowing you to open many at once with Cast Mastery.
· If many strongboxes open simultaneously, your character might be in danger, so if your build power is low, it's recommended to open them safely one by one.
· Since Discernment Ambush Scarabs are used, Arcanist's or Diviner's Strongboxes will frequently appear even in regular strongboxes outside the Delirious area, so you must clear them all.

3. ✨ How Attack Builds Can Automatically Open Strongboxes Using Cast Mastery
· Attack builds can also automatically open strongboxes by utilizing the 'Open Chests' effect from Cast Mastery nodes.
· Strongbox monsters are not particularly powerful, so you can allocate Cast Mastery nodes by sacrificing a bit of build power.
· For example, you can remove Sniper's Mark Enhance Support and equip a spell skill like 'Excavate' to trigger the Cast Mastery effect.
· It's important to consider your passive tree location and find a nearby Cast Mastery node to utilize.
