Stacked Deck Farming
The Stacked Deck Strategy is a low-investment farming method designed to generate large quantities of Stacked Decks. It makes use of 5 Divination Scarabs of The Cloister, which spawn between 40 and 60 packs of Doedre's Devoted in your map. Each monster added by the scarabs has a 5% chance to drop a Stacked Deck, making this a highly efficient and scalable strategy for Stacked Deck farming.
Set-Up
When setting up to run this strategy, purchase enough materials to complete a sizeble batch of maps. Failing to do this makes selling your drops far more difficult, as you frequently need to interrupt farming to trade for additional supplies.
Map Choice
- Tier 16 8 mod Jungle Valley Map
- Running 8-mod rare maps is essential to maximize Pack Size which directly increases the number of monster added from the Divination Scarabs of The Cloister.
- Jungle Valley is the ideal choice as it has a higher chance of rolling Eldritch Altars that grant the modifier: "Basic Currency has a chance to be duplicated." This is especially valuable as Stacked Decks are considered a basic currency and can therefore be duplicated.
- Tier 16 8 Mod Glacier Map
- Glacier is a strong alternative to Jungle Valley. Due to a large number of unique monsters that spawn around the boss. When this occurs, use a Ritual Vessel to store the encounter, as these can be sold for a profit.

Gameplay
- Clear the map looking for as many Eater of Worlds Altars as possible.
- If you notice Doedre's Devoted mobs spawning on top of a Ritual altar, make sure to complete that Ritual first. Doing so ensures they are respawned in all subsequent Rituals, significantly increasing your chances of additional Stacked Deck drops.
