To collect all three Fates Deadly , Cowardly, and Victorious—without draining your currency, you should weigh the pros and cons of team runs versus solo farming in Path of Exile 2.
Team runs are generally more efficient for Fate farming if you have reliable party members. When you run Trials of Chaos as a group, each player receives a Fate drop from the same boss completion, which greatly increases overall chances of getting all three types quickly. Teams can coordinate to trade duplicates amongst themselves, ensuring everyone gets a full set with fewer total runs. This method also shares the burden of consumables and mitigates the randomness of Fate drops, helping everyone progress without excessive grinding or high trading expenses.
Solo runs give you full control over loot, pacing, and efficiency. However, the randomness of Fate drops can mean spending much more time and more currency on Inscribed Ultimatums or map access to get the set you need. If you’re lucky or have a highly optimized build, solo can sometimes be faster, but it usually takes longer and risks burning through resources with unlucky streaks.
For most players, teaming up is the best way to avoid exhausting your currency. Good groups plan to split or rotate Fates based on needs, and pooling drops means you’re far less likely to get stuck endlessly grinding—or having to buy—your missing piece. If you do run solo, consider trading duplicates early and watching market prices; sometimes it’s more efficient to sell extra Fates for currency and then buy the one you lack, rather than keep running Trials indefinitely.
Efficient Fate farming comes down to cooperation, drop sharing, and being willing to trade as needed. Teamwork is a big advantage when you want all three Fates quickly and with the least currency spent.
