Grinding Gear Games has released the first major Path of Exile 3.29 Curse of the Allflame hotfix, dramatically improving the league mechanic. Before the patch, Charts mainly served as setup for Voyages, offering excellent Gold but very little direct currency. Now, Charts are packed with Strongboxes, Scarabs, Currency Chests, and other valuable rewards, making them worth farming on their own. If you've avoided the league mechanic because early feedback called it unrewarding, it's time to give it another chance. This guide explains every important change, how to maximize your profits, and the best way to POE currency farm Charts and Voyages after the 3.29 loot buff.

What's Changed in the 3.29 Allflame Loot Patch?
The hotfix focuses on one goal: making Charts rewarding before you even enter a Voyage.
Previously, players could clear several Charts in minutes and leave with almost no currency, despite earning plenty of Gold and Voyage materials. The patch transforms Charts into a legitimate farming strategy by significantly increasing both loot density and valuable encounters.
The biggest improvements include:
More premium Strongboxes More Currency and Scarab Chests Better Golden Lantern bonuses More interactive loot objects Higher quantity and rarity from Chart modifiers Faster access to Ducat crafting Several quality-of-life improvements
Why Charts Are Finally Worth Running
Strongboxes Now Spawn Much More Frequently
One of the largest buffs is the default appearance of Diviner's, Arcanist's, and Operative Strongboxes in map-level Charts and Voyages.
Before the patch, these premium Strongboxes were relatively rare.
Now, it's common to encounter one or more every few Charts, dramatically increasing rewards through:
Raw currency Scarabs Divination Cards Valuable crafting materials
Because Strongboxes now make up a much larger portion of your profits, every Chart feels considerably more rewarding.
Always Carry Orbs of Alchemy
Strongboxes currently spawn as normal rarity.
Before opening them, use an Orb of Alchemy to upgrade them into rare Strongboxes.
This simple habit greatly increases their rewards and is one of the easiest ways to improve your overall farming efficiency.
Keep a full stack of Alchemy Orbs in your inventory whenever farming Charts or Voyages.
