In Path of Exile, progressing efficiently through the Atlas is very crucial for performing well in the leagues. With the Settlers of Kalguur expansion and 3.25 patch out, we have a new league to look forward to. Which is why in this guide, I will show you the fastest and most efficient progression path you can take for your Atlas.
How To Progress Your Atlas Fast
Before I get started on the steps you will be taking, following is the complete Atlas we will be progressing towards. Now this isn’t the only fastest way to progress your Atlas out there but it is certainly one of the best as most players will agree.
Step-by-step Progression
At the start, our target will be to reach Unwavering Vision as it offers 20 Atlas points which I don’t think I need to stress how valuable that is. To get there, first progress towards Commissioned Offer by following the path given below:
- Adjacent Map Drop Chance (x4) → Kirac Mission Chance (x2) → Expect the Unexpected → Kirac Mission Chance (x2) → Scarab Drop Chance → Commissioned Offer
Once you reach Commissioned Offer, take the shortest path towards Unwavering Vision which is given below:
- Scarab Drop Chance (x3) → Item Quantity (x5) → Map Modifier Effect (x3) → Unwavering Vision
After that, get the 10 Adjacent Map Drop Chance nodes on both sides (5 on the left and 5 on the right) as shown in the image below. This will increase the chances of getting additional connected maps from monsters.
Once you have gotten that, progress towards Shaping the Mountains and Shaping the Skies. Paths for both are given below:
Left Side:
- Adjacent Map Drop Chance → Higher Map Tier Chance (x2) → Shaping the Skies
Right Side:
- Adjacent Map Drop Chance → Higher Map Tier Chance (x2) → Shaping the Mountains
Now get Shaping the World and the 5 Higher Map Tier Chance nodes which are located in the middle of the Atlas as you can see below.
Shrines
After that you can focus on shrines. Get the 2 Domination Shrine Duration nodes at the bottom and then get Supplication. Once you have gotten those nodes, get Domination Shrine Chance followed by Domination Shrine Effect and lastly Syncretism. Both clusters of nodes are marked in the image below.
Packed with Energy
At this stage, get Packed with Energy and the 3 Delve Mission Chance nodes close to it. Packed with Energy used to last indefinitely but now it has been nerfed to 60 seconds. It still offers 35% increased damage so it is worth getting.
Now get the following nodes which are located near the start:
- Adjacent Map Drop Chance → Delve Mission Chance → Frantic Mining → Delve Mission Chance
Also get the 3 Delve Mission Chance nodes located close to Unwavering Vision.
Now get the 11 Adjacent Map Drop Chance nodes located near the start. Get 5 on the left and 6 on the right as marked below.
Kirac Missions
Lastly, get the following nodes which are also located near the start:
Left Side
- Kirac Mission Chance (x3) → Planar Tactician
Middle
- Essence Rare Chance (x2) → Prolific Essence
Right Side
- Kirac Mission Chance (x3) → Solidarity
