Turn surplus tradeable map loot into Flame Elementium for a specific character upgrade.
PC / Global, current Tartarus season (October 2026)
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Netherrealm loot sorting and the in-game Trade House or exchange.
Flame Elementium income comes from direct Netherrealm rewards as well as selling tradeable items. A reliable routine is to map at a pace your build sustains, identify loot that other players currently want, and list only the surplus you do not need for crafting or progression. Prices and buyers vary, so treat a listing as an offer rather than guaranteed currency.
Unlock Netherrealm and the in-game trading interface.
Reach the level or progression requirement shown by the game for trading access.
Use a loot filter that makes relevant bases and materials easy to notice.
Have a clear upgrade target for any FE you earn.
Choose a Timemark where you finish maps and bosses reliably.
Configure the loot filter around tradable gear and materials relevant to the current economy.
Run maps and collect items that match the filter, plus useful crafting supplies.
Sort drops after the map; keep materials needed for your next planned craft.
Use the exchange search or price-check features to compare similar listings.
List surplus items at a price informed by current comparable offers.
Check completed sales and move the proceeds toward the upgrade you identified.
Farming tips
Demand changes; recheck listings instead of carrying yesterday’s price assumption into a new session.
Include map access and crafting costs when deciding whether a route is helping your FE budget.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat the map, sort, list, and reinvest loop; sales depend on current demand and are not guaranteed.
Common mistakes
Listing every material: reserve the supplies your planned craft consumes.
Reading an asking price as a sale price: compare similar offers and verify actual completed trades where available.
When to stop or switch
Stop listing an item when it has no meaningful demand or when the time spent managing it outweighs the value; return to mapping or keep it for crafting.
