Fragments

This setup prepares your Waystone, Tablets, and Atlas Master bonuses for fragment farming.

AreaRequirement
Waystone tierTier 15 or higher
Waystone drop %120-125%+ on the Waystone when possible
TabletsTwo boss-modifier Tablets, plus one Visions of Paradise
Atlas MasterDoryani
Doryani pointsIrradiated and One Additional Revival

Choose Doryani as the Atlas Master and allocate:

Doryani pointEffect
IrradiatedRaises the area monster level by 1. For example, a Waystone with level 79 monsters becomes level 80 when Irradiated.
One Additional RevivalAdds one additional revival to the area.

Use two Tablets of any mechanic type that each add Map Bosses have 1 additional Modifier, for 2 additional boss modifiers total. Add one Visions of Paradise Tablet so the Anomaly Map can be completed once, gain Irradiation, and then be run a second time.

TabletPriority modifiersNotes
Any mechanic Tablet 1Map Bosses have 1 additional ModifierFirst boss-modifier Tablet. The mechanic type is flexible for this setup.
Any mechanic Tablet 2Map Bosses have 1 additional ModifierSecond boss-modifier Tablet, giving the boss 2 additional modifiers total.
Visions of ParadiseIf Map was not previously Irradiated, completing Map adds Irradiation insteadLets the Anomaly Map be run twice when the first completion adds Irradiation.
Fourth Tablet on City mapsOptional extra boss-modifier Tablet or value TabletOnly use when Industrial Improvements lets City maps use an additional Tablet.

Use a Tier 15 or higher Waystone. Tier 15 is sufficient, so a Tier 16 Waystone is not required for this strategy. For crafting setup, see Waystones.

The Waystone itself should have 120-125% or more Waystone Drop Chance when possible. Very high rolls may reach about 145% Waystone Drop Chance, so keep those for the best Anomaly, Hall, or Citadel targets. In practice, this is usually a 0 revives Waystone, so plan around the lower safety margin.

Waystone targetChaotic Omen setupNote
Waystones Found + Monster EffectivenessOmen of Chaotic Quantity + one rarity blockerUse Omen of Chaotic Rarity to block Item Rarity or Omen of Chaotic Monsters to block Monster Rarity. Do not use Omen of Chaotic Effectiveness for this target.

Prioritize reaching the drop-chance target before spending extra resources to make the Waystone Tier 16.

BiomeWhy it matters
Any strong pathing routeNo specific fragment-farming biome target is documented yet. Prioritize reaching the needed boss or encounter nodes cleanly.
City mapsUseful when Industrial Improvements is allocated, because City maps can use a fourth Tablet.

Use this table as a quick reminder of which boss or encounter drops each major fragment target and which pinnacle fight those fragments unlock.

LootNotes
FragmentsPrimary target. Patriarch Hall and Matriarch Hall fragments unlock Arbiter of Divinity, while Copper, Stone, and Iron Citadel fragments unlock Arbiter of Ash.
WaystonesThe setup uses 120-125%+ Waystone Drop Chance on the Waystone itself while the Tablets focus on boss modifiers and Visions of Paradise. Extra Tier 15 Waystones can feed the Waystones corruption strategy.
