Strategy
This method farms the Citadel bosses in city biomes. Their fragments sell for roughly 1–2 divines for the cheaper two, and Jamanra’s fragment for about 11 divines. With the full Atlas tree, city areas can be invaded and invaded cities can hold a Citadel boss. The bigger payout comes from summoning circles in city maps, which have a small chance to summon a random Citadel boss instead of their normal encounter. Stacking extra summoning circles and waystone quantity pushes both the spawn rate and the number of fragments each boss drops.
The creator explicitly goes for fun over maximum divines per hour. Travel maps between cities run Abyss tablets for Omens of Light instead of rushing. By their account, one city biome usually gives about one Jamanra plus several of the smaller Citadel bosses, which works out to roughly 50–100 divines per biome. That is how they reached a Mageblood in one day.
Atlas Tree & Setup
- Unlock the fortress first. Clear the Arbiter of Divinity quest once, then buy an Origin Core (about 9 divines) and kill the Arbiter again. That completes the fortress and unlocks the full Atlas tree.
- City tablets (x4): Irradiated tablets are the cheapest. Each one needs Map contains an additional Summoning Circle (not the “increased chance” version, which is a different mod) plus increased quantity of Waystones found. The size of the quantity roll does not matter. The creator also keeps unique monsters have an additional rare modifier because it barely changes the price and improves the loot from the summoned bosses.
- City maps: 8-mod corrupted waystones with 130–150% waystone drop chance, and never below 110%. According to the creator, waystone drop chance and waystone quantity are the only stats that increase fragment drops. Craft them by identifying, then Alchemy (or two Exalts if the map is not rare), then Vaal once no revives remain.
- League atlas node: take the node that rolls 0–40% increased effect of explicit tablet modifiers, snapshotted when you enter the map. It is what swings a Jamanra between two and five fragments. The rest of this node set is up to you. Check the exact picks against the source video.
- Travel tablets: either no tablet (just run toward the next city) or Abyss tablets once the Abyss quest line and tree are done. Pick Amanamu for Omen of Light, take the omen node, and look for increased chance for abyssal monsters to have abyssal modifiers. Leftover low-drop-chance corrupted waystones are fine for these maps.
Investment & Returns
- Investment: mid. About 9 divines for the Origin Core, then cheap Irradiated tablets and currency for crafting waystones
- Returns: high. The creator estimates 50–100 divines per city biome, and Jamanra alone is worth 20–50 divines per kill
- Scales with waystone drop chance, tablet quantity rolls and the tablet-effect snapshot
Step-by-step
- If you are short on currency, run Trial of Chaos. The revamped trials are faster, and cheap keys can be run for 10 rooms and the fragments sold (or run to 30 rooms if your character can handle it).
- Buy the Origin Core, kill the Arbiter of Divinity a second time, and finish the fortress.
- Craft 8-mod, high-drop-chance corrupted waystones and four city tablets with the summoning-circle and waystone-quantity mods.
- In each city map, activate the three large monoliths to spawn one boss. Then find the small summoning circles that add uses to the monoliths and go back to spawn more. Click slowly, because the mechanic is buggy.
- Between cities, run travel maps with no tablets or Abyss tablets. Drag Amanamu’s void monsters out of their black aura before you kill them to get Omen of Light, and fully clear any Abyssal Depths.
- Sell Citadel fragments and any rare drops, such as high-socket exceptional bases.
Risks
- Summoning circles are buggy right now, so spawns can fail if you click too fast
- Fragment counts vary a lot. They depend on waystone drop chance and the tablet-effect snapshot
- The Abyss travel setup needs the Abyss quest line and tree. Without it, just rush to the next city
- Prices such as Omen of Light at about 8 divines and fragment values are from early in the league and will move
