Atlas of Worlds
Lua error in Module:New_content at line 141: Argument "version" is required.
The Atlas of Worlds will replace the existing map system as part of the Atlas of Worlds expansion, due to be released on {{#show: Atlas of Worlds (Expansion)|?Has_release_date}}. [1]
Overview
The Atlas of Worlds is separated in 4 quadrants which can be entered through a Tier 1 map for each. Those drop in late merciless difficulty. [2]
In addition, the Atlas of Worlds also has specific "thematic" zones which enable specific base item type drops.[2]
In the centre of the Atlas, there are 4 Tier 16 maps with special bosses which grant a single attempt at defeating the shaper after clearing the maps[2].
Completion
All maps, both base maps and unique maps are now located on the Atlas of Worlds. Map drops are no longer completely random like before; instead a specific tier is chosen first and the map type is chosen from pool of maps you've completed for that tier or connected to map you're currently playing. [2]
Each completed map base type also gives a 1% chance to upgrade the tier of a map, with values over 100% giving a chance to increase the tier a second time. The maximum map tier however can not bypass drop restrictions, even if it would have been upgraded[3].
For example, a rare monster in a tier 6 map with 125% completion bonus:
- a rare monster can drop +1 maps, as such it can drop tier 1 to 7 maps
- it will only drop maps that are adjacent or already unlocked on the atlas
- a tier 5 drop would be upgraded to tier 6, with a 25% chance to be upgraded to tier 7
- a tier 6 drop would be upgraded to tier 7, but can't be upgraded any further
- a tier 7 is already the highest possible drop, and can't be upgraded any further

Those stats can be stacked, but a mod is used up after 5 uses [2]
