1. Upgrade and Use High-Tier Waystones with Many Modifiers

<ul>
<li>
Waystones have a Waystone Drop Chance stat that can range up to 700% or more.

</li>
<li>
Use Rare Waystones with multiple (up to 6) suffix modifiers to maximize drop chance.

</li>
<li>
You can craft these by corrupting Waystones with Vaal Orbs or using the Reforging Bench to upgrade tiers.

</li>
<li>
More negative modifiers on Waystones and maps actually increase Waystone drop chance, so don&rsquo;t shy away from &ldquo;bad&rdquo; mods.

</li>
</ul>
<h2>2. Invest in Atlas Passive Tree Nodes</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Allocate points to nodes that increase:

<ul>
<li>
Waystone Drop Chance

</li>
<li>
Waystone Modifier Effect (boosts the strength of Waystone mods)

</li>
<li>
Waystone Quantity (increases the number of Waystones dropped)

</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Key nodes include Constant Crossroads, Teeming Horde, Precursor Influence, and Bountiful Bloodlines.

</li>
<li>
These nodes multiply the base drop chance and quantity, significantly improving fragment farming efficiency, including increasing the chance of obtaining the Faded Crisis Fragment.

</li>
</ul>
<h2>3. Use Map and Waystone Modifiers</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Run higher-tier maps (Tier 10 and above) with multiple negative modifiers (e.g., &ldquo;Monsters are Evasive,&rdquo; &ldquo;Increased Pack Size,&rdquo; &ldquo;More Magic/Rare Monsters&rdquo;).

</li>
<li>
These modifiers increase map difficulty and loot quantity, which in turn boosts Waystone drop chance.

</li>
<li>
Apply currency like Alchemy Orbs, Regal Orbs, and Vaal Orbs to upgrade map tiers and add modifiers.

</li>
<li>
Use Precursor Tablets in Atlas towers to increase Waystone quantity on maps.

</li>
</ul>
<h2>4. Increase Monster Density and Kill Efficiency</h2>
<ul>
<li>
More monsters killed equals more chances for Waystones to drop.

</li>
<li>
Use skills and gear that increase pack size and kill speed to maximize kills per map.

</li>
<li>
Consider investing in Atlas nodes that increase monster rarity and quantity, such as Deadly Evolution and Rising Danger.

</li>
</ul>
<h2>5. Maintain Rarity on Gear</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Item rarity on your character&rsquo;s gear increases the chance for rare drops, including Waystones.

</li>
<li>
Although it may require sacrificing some survivability, investing in rarity gear helps improve overall drop rates.

</li>
</ul>
<h2>6. Purchase Waystones from Doryani if Needed</h2>
<ul>
<li>
If you run out of Waystones, you can buy them from Doryani&rsquo;s vendor in the Ziggurat Refuge using gold.

</li>
<li>
This ensures you can continue farming Citadels and fragments without interruption.

</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
Use rare, highly modified Waystones and high-tier maps with negative mods to maximize drop chance.

</li>
<li>
Invest Atlas passive points in Waystone drop and quantity nodes.

</li>
<li>
Increase monster density and kill speed for more drops.

</li>
<li>
Maintain rarity on your gear to boost drop rates.

</li>
<li>
Supplement your supply by purchasing Waystones if necessary.

</li>
</ul>
