• Go for High Pack Size Maps
• Ticket to Longer Runs
• Post-Event Strategy
• No Trail?
• Dealing with Vendors & Dead Ends
• Efficient Pathing
• Random Run Insights

↖ Go for High Pack Size Maps

• Key to Success: Opt for eight-modifier maps, since they provide higher pack size. The more monsters there are, the more wisps there are.
• Not Trails but Monsters: Find events with high monster density because that is where your wisps come from.

↖ Ticket to Longer Runs

• Spot and Sprint: Upon sighting a wisp, move directly towards it. It's about not only extending your run but also chaining those wisp-rich events together.
• Chase Wisely: Look for these events by following trails, however do not get lost along the way keeping an eye on your wisp count.

↖ Post-Event Strategy

Collect What's Left: After being kicked out of an event, return and pick up any missed wisps. These can add up quickly!

↖ No Trail?

• Find the Event: If you spawn with no visible trails, there is likely a monster-packed event close by. Use monster aggroing to locate them.
• Follow the Monsters: Your compass – monsters – lead you to new events and wisps.

↖ Dealing with Vendors & Dead Ends

• Vendor Frustration: You might not find much from vendors; if you end up hitting one take nearby wisps and go find another trail.
• Backtrack if Needed: Sometimes retracing your steps is best strategy to finding new wisps or events.

↖ Efficient Pathing

• Keep Moving: Don't dawdle! Getting from one event to another as quickly as possible is essential for high wisp counts.
• Avoid Random Wandering: Running around randomly is a huge waste of time and fuel.

↖ Random Run Insights

• Adapt and React: Every run is different. Be ready to adapt your tactics based on the wisps and monsters you encounter.
• Keep an Eye on Fuel: Monitor your fuel level so that you'll be able to continue hunting for those precious wisps.

And there you go – your way to become a Wildwood Wisp Wizard in PoE 3.23! Don't forget that smart pathing, event priority setting, and being mobile are the secrets. Keep this in mind; you will collect those wisps in no time.
