Path of Exile Atlas skill tree for early-game maps farming

UPDATED TO 3.28

Early Map farming and progression Atlas tree build for PoE 3.28 Mirage

Grab more of the small Adjacent Map Drop Chance passives, which are the main priority for progressing through the atlas. This is a very important step: even if it feels like you're wasting passive points, you need this bonus in order to build a big stock of maps to progress the atlas as fast as you can.

Focus on mechanics that are easy early on and help a lot with your character's progression: Shrines is a good option because it gives strong buffs to the player while providing good extra pack sizes. These buffs can help a lot when fightning harder maps.

Packed with Energy is an optional node which help when clearing harder maps, however allocating some nodes that grant extra chance to find Niko missions may be needed.

Feel free to start removing the League mechanics you don't enjoy: in this template Heist and Breach are removed just as example.

Once you've enough red maps and atlas passive points, check one of the end-game atlas strategies, such as the Best Endgame Atlas strategy.
