Atlas' passive guide on Path of Exile 3.23 Affliction, best passives to gain experience and face bosses!
Guide to Atlas passives, the best and most interesting! 00:00​​​​​​
Operation of the guide and the atlas
I show you all the passives of the atlas as well as their power. There is necessarily an element of subjectivity even if I tried to give you their raw power. Don't forget to do according to your favorite activities!
As a reminder, for each bonus mission carried out you will have an atlas point, each atlas point can be removed via the Orbs of Unmaking, so be careful to put your points correctly!
Very interesting passives
Maps
If you want to progress very easily in the Atlas, I highly recommend these passives. In addition to passive gains, you will have a much better chance of having a higher tier map. That is to say that it will be much easier to have better maps to progress in the Atlas!
Interesting liabilities
abysses
Beyond having more abyss, the passives of Abyss especially make it possible to always find a lich in the depths. A very interesting passive to be able to find the associated drops!
Breach
If you like breaches, look into these passives. You will have a lot more splinters, breaches and chargestones. So it's a good way to gain experience and collect items!
Delirium
If you have the equipment, take Delirium! The enemies are very tough but the loots will be associated. Very good passives if you can do this type of maps!
Harbinger
If you like currency drops, the Harbingers will meet your expectations! Passives give more Harbinger and more drops!
Harvest Garden
The garden is interesting because it offers a passive of 200% more experience. Obviously you can also take this passive if you like craf! Pay attention to the level of difficulty!
Jun Betrayal
Jun's passives are interesting if you like this type of activity, especially for experience and loot. Taking this passive for crafts is a bad idea, however, since crafts can be recovered very easily now. You will have more chance to have a Jun mission, more object, two ranks by killing a member, more member and more intelligence.
strong box
Strongboxes will give a lot more loot and are quite simple to make. A good way to recover currencies!
Atlas Boss and Quest Passives
Interesting when you start the Crucibles, especially for a chance to have an Awaken gem and the splinters.
Maven bosses and quests
Interesting that you start the Crucibles, especially for a chance to have an Awaken gem and the splinters.
Boss and quest The Eater of World
To be taken when you get to advanced maps in order to have more drops and progress more easily in your quests.
The Searing Exarch boss and quest
To be taken when you get to advanced maps in order to have more drops and progress more easily in your quests.
Boss Conquerors Elderslayers
Interesting if you want to face the old bosses of the game! Good drops but the passives are not very powerful.
Boss Elder Shaper Guardian
Interesting if you want to face the old old bosses of the game! Good loot but beware of the difficulty!
Situational liabilities
Blight Cassia
Blight activities are difficult, but can quickly be very lucrative. If you have the level, you can lean towards this activity. Be careful though, the passives given by the atlas tree are not extremely powerful but will certainly give you an advantage for this activity.
Delve Niko
If you like mine, take good on Delve. The passives are not ultra powerful but will bring you significant comfort if you like this activity, with a lot more Sulphite and Azurite!
Einhar Bestiary
If you like hunting beasts and making the crafts it gives, you will have to turn to Einhar. It will significantly improve your hunting rewards. Take it only if you are moving towards this type of activity.
Gasoline
More gasoline and better level, to take only if you want to craft or resell them!
Kirac
Kirac's passives are ok, especially if you like Atlas Scouting Reports. These are objects allowing you to change the cards offered by Kirac on the daily missions. However, these are not necessarily the most interesting liabilities.
Legion, situational
Even if legion passives can be very practical, I would rather recommend them to experienced players who want to make endgame emblems.
Metamorphic
The shifters are ok, nothing more. To be taken if you need to improve your rings or if you like this type of activity.
Synthesis
The bonuses are nice enough, but you'll need to be level to make these cards and be lucky to collect them! Note that you can also sell these maps.
Incursion Alva, blah
It's not in my opinion the best endgame activities, but will help you if you want to do them. More time and better part upgrades.
Passives not very profitable
Beyond
You will have more demons coming to kill you, without necessarily making the drops interesting.
Map Boss
Not to be confused with Maps, these increase map boss drops. In the end, the liabilities are moderately interesting!
R
The rituals could have been interesting because they give good objects, but even by putting all the passives you will have little chance of finding them in your maps.
Snape Exile
I've never been a big fan of this mechanic, but you'll get a lot more drop on Rogues Exiles and outnumber them a lot. Overall I find that the points invested are not really worth it!
Sextant
Even though sextants are quite powerful, you will need to spend 5 passive to get one more use of sextant. A bit pricey!
shrine
More Shrine but no more loot, so I recommend the other passives instead!
Torment
To be combined with other passives to be interesting, otherwise you will have more loot but of average quality.
With this guide, you will know everything about Atlas's passives and will be able to choose the most important or strong ones much more easily but also according to your favorite Endgame activities on Path of Exile Affliction 3.23! Feel free to indicate your passive choices in the comments!
