Atlas Strategy:
1. Slam awakened sextants on voidstones. The strat works with just about any sextant affix. If you get an affix that's worth moneyz, use a compass on it and sell the compass.
2. Quality, then alch/chaos into a nice roll on a guardian map. It can be any of the guardian maps. It's best to do them in a rotation.
3. Apply abyss (2c) on the map device. Feel free to add any extra Atziri frags you got laying around to the map device for extra quantity.
4. Run guardian maps with Maven observing. Run the guardian invitations you get. You can also buy them if you're getting unlucky with drops.
5. Get about 5 crescent splinters per invitation. Use the crescent splinters to build a Maven writ.
6. Collect boss fragments. Use your Elder, Shaper, and Sirus fragments to access those bosses and kill them or sell the fragments. We do these bosses.
7. Either kill Maven or just sell the Maven writ for about a divine. You can use that divine to buy more guardian maps and repeat the process. We sell the Maven writs.
8. Get lots of loot along the way. Kill lots of bosses, get more loot, and repeat.
9. Run the simulacrums you're collecting splinters for. Get more loot that's decent for selling in bulk (scarabs, essences, etc). Sell that loot in bulk.
10. Use the harvest juice you're collecting to roll cluster jewels (you'll get a ton) and sell those cluster jewels, or not. vOv
11. Visit Tane's lab to build/kill metamorphs periodically. They drop nice stuff sometimes (divines, etc).

Dahbadu's level 100 Poison Totem Explode Occultist PoB: https://poe.ninja/pob/bD9
- Boxes checked (banner dropped, infecting, low life) for top-end damage to show mechanics available. 15 wither stacks can build up over time from the Occultist ascendancy but fights are over before they do, so I entered 3 (about 3 seconds). Everything else is near insta-ramp.
- This build was designed to play with my buddy that's running a Poison SRS build. When grouping with a PoB similar to the below, switch out Malevolence with Purity of Elements. One of you can also run Haste if your bud doesn't have a fancy Aul's.

Pain points in Dahbadu's build:
- Determination enchant on a corrupted Alpha's Howl is expensive. I got lucky running lab. Any mana reservation enchant for your big auras will do.
- Off-coloring the Cospri's Will body armour. Perhaps buy one with a bunch of white sockets already. 6-link is unnecessary, as you don't need Enhance.
- It's also annoying to off-color a corrupted Alpha's Howl helmet to fit in Skitterbots. It will take at least 40 vaal orbs if it doesn't have the colors you need. Feel free to use Herald of Agony instead of Skitterbots.
