The Beachhead: a no loot map

I run them solo, generally... the map drops and the "Harbinger Unique" fragments are what I am after, and in that sense the loot drops are fine. Plus, they are just fun *shrugs* What is the OP wanting from a map?

What I want from a map in general, is loot.
You are right it is a very fun map to run, but it's lacking in loot, I feel.

T15 Beachhead was the main League Mechanic of Harbinger, so it's only fair to compare it to mains from other leagues we currently get to play.

Well, a T15 temple is no comparison at all. Even if you don't have good rooms and even if you failed to connect the Apex - there's still a ton of stuff dropping. If you did - you'll need several trips to hideout to haul all the good stuff.

What about Bestiary bosses? Better loot. Especially since T15 is the tiger boss I didn't get to yet, and we all know what the tiger boss can drop.

Abyss Liches? Generally good loot and a chance for a Shroud or 2 socket gloves and boots, plus a guaranteed craftable belt.

I guess one step in the direction of making T15 Beachhead better, is to just drop the Harbinger Unique instead of making you collect random pieces.

Loot?! What are you babbling about? This flood of worthless trash, which always remains on ground, because there is no point to even identify it? There is only few kinds of "loot" worthy to pick up:

- Unique items woth more then 30c. At Beachhead there is no chance of such a thing
- Shaped or elder rare basis with ilvl above 80. At Beachhead there is no chance of such a thing
- Red maps - they drops quite often on Beachhead - very demanded loot
- Currency, including "harbinger only", like horizons orb - they drops quite often on Beachhead - very demanded loot
- Fragments of "Harbinger only" unique items - they drop there too. Sword and staff are junk, but belt, helmet, shield and quiver can be sold for good price.

For anyone who is not a waste-maker who wastes time to identify tons of garbage Beachheda is very nice map.

Some of us look at the initial investment vs map reward, particularly if you primarily play solo.

Given the cost of the map, you're essentially taking big hits any time the map drops are lackluster. Given the market value of the map, its too cost-prohibitive to bother with outside of grouping. As I'm pretty sure harby's got their own nerf as is, I definitely felt disappointment during my own solo run.
