Run to the boss, kill monsters on the way. If you see an essence/heist cache, open it, but do not go out of your way too much to find them. If there is a purple essence(misery, dread, envy, scorn), or it has a lot of essences, corrupt it. Kill the bosses, go next map.
You do not have to roll the maps, as quantity doesn't do much for this strategy.
Whenever you witness 10 bosses, do the 10-way(Maven's invitation: The Atlas). Roll it 70+ quant and vaal it if your build can handle it.
The best builds for this strat are builds that move and clear very fast, for example Tornado Shot. I did it on a 10 divine Voltaxic Rift TS character, averaging 40-50 maps per hour.
I only included consistent and guaranteed drops in the breakdown, but you can expect a few big drops in most runs, like a Cortex, valuable memories, other maven invitations, or rarely exceptional gems. You can easily sell both essences and boss maps in bulk on the TFT discord server.
Atlas tree: Grab all the boss map nodes, map duplication nodes, essence nodes, map sustain nodes. Add in Heist last if you have the points for it. Heist is a bit hit or miss, you could get a fully revealed blueprint(100+ c), but most of the time you will get nothing. Feel free to spend these points somewhere else, like more map sustain, or master mission chance. I was easily able to sustain maps with the atlas tree in the guide.
Best maps to run: Mesa, Ashen Wood, Mud Geyser, City Square, Shore
Good maps to run: Arcade, Temple, Crimson Temple, Waste Pool, Atoll, Park, Arid Lake, Bazaar, Canyon, Coves, Dunes, Cemetery, Fields
Maps to avoid: Reef, Spider Forest, Laboratory, Dig, Basilica, Necropolis, Bramble Valley, Vault, Desert, Port... any map that has a multi-phase boss or a very long and convoluted layout. However, some maps like Basilica are fine to do, because Maven spawns the extra bosses at the start. You can kill those and just leave.
It is also possible to run the same 10 maps using Shadow Shaping. Find 10 connected maps that you like the most, and favorite every map connected to them that you do not want to drop. A good example of this would be: Mesa, Jungle Valley, Arid Lake, Arcade, Arena, Park, City Square, Mud Geyser, Racecourse, Stagnation. They are in the corner, so you can favorite every other map connecting to them, so when you drop a connected map, it is guaranteed to be one of these 10 maps. Or, just simply favorite 5 pairs of connected maps, without Shadow Shaping.
