# πŸ”„ PoE 3.26 Kingsmarch Shipment Optimization (Mirror Shard Focus)

## 🎯 Shipment Goals
| Purpose        | Target Value |
|----------------|--------------|
| Favor Farming  | 300K–1M      |
| Divine Orbs    | 1M–1.5M      |
| Mirror Shards  | **17M+**     |

## βš™ Shipment Value Formula

- **Base Value** = Value of all resources (crops, bars, others)
- If **Dust ≀ Base** β†’ `Final = Base + Dust`
- If **Dust > Base** β†’ `Final = Base Γ— (1 + √(Dust / Base))`

πŸ”Έ **Best efficiency**: Use dust β‰ˆ base value.

*** Dust is added by volume to match the base value of the shipment ***
Example: Shipment has Wheat and Crimson Ore/Bars worth 700K in value,
then add up to 700K dust units (volume) for maximum efficiency on the dust multiplier.

---

## πŸ“¦ Resource Strategy

- **Bars** (Iron/Orichalcum/Crimson) = high value per slot
- **Crops** (Wheat, etc.) = scalable base value, affected by favor
- **Dust** = value multiplier, get from disenchanting gear at **Rog**

πŸ’‘ For 17M target:  
β†’ Use ~8.5M base + ~8.5M dust (by value, not volume)

---

## πŸ‘· Worker Levels

- **Shipping Level**: Improves cargo capacity and reduces risk
- **Farming Level**: Increases crop output and favor gain
- **Mining Level**: Boosts ore/bar returns and value

πŸš€ Prioritize leveling **Shipping** and **Farming** for faster high-value shipment loops.

## βš“ Port Strategy

| Port        | Best Loot Types                      |
|-------------|--------------------------------------|
| Kalguur     | Splinters, Rituals, Ward Gear        |
| Te Onui     | Corruptible Jewels, Uniques          |
| Pondium     | Fossils, Flasks                      |
| Ngakanu     | Stacked Decks, Support Gems          |
| Riben Fell  | Scarabs, Vaal Gems                   |
