Add three Essence encounters to the area.
Used in the personal Map Device, the Scarab makes the area contain three additional Imprisoned Monsters. It supplies encounters; the monster difficulty, contained Essences, and final drops are still determined in the map.
Use it when the Atlas plan converts more Essence encounters into value.
Pair the Scarab with an Essence-focused strategy and a character prepared for empowered rare monsters. Evaluate several maps rather than assuming three encounters mean three premium Essences.
Imprisoned Monsters can be dangerous, and their rewards vary. The Scarab is consumed when the map opens.
Essence farming creates direct demand for added prisoners.
Its market follows the value players place on additional Essence encounters. The Scarab guarantees encounter count, not Essence tier, upgrade result, or profit.
