This setup increases access to Lineage Support Gem encounters and lets the Forest Mastery choice apply to target areas outside Forest biomes.

Partial TranslationsDoubles the Waystone Drop Chance provided by Tablets

Take the Forest Mastery: Lineage Gems choice node and select the option for an increased chance to find Lineage Supports.

The Mastered Domain Tablet is what lets this Forest choice work in any affected Lineage Support boss area.

Also unlock the relevant Atlas nodes for Lineage Support farming, including Forest Mastery and all four Memories nodes.

Each node grants a 15% chance for its respective Lineage area, so all four should be allocated when farming across the available Lineage encounters.

Prepare Tablets with Increased Quantity of Waystones Found. One of them should be a Mastered Domain Irradiated Tablet.

Irradiated Tablet 2Increased Quantity of Waystones FoundSupports access to Lineage Support Gem areas.
Irradiated Tablet 3Increased Quantity of Waystones FoundKeep the setup focused on Waystone quantity.
Fourth Tablet on City mapsIncreased Quantity of Waystones FoundOnly use when Industrial Improvements lets City maps use an additional Tablet.

Mastered Domain makes affected maps also count as a Forest. This allows the Forest Mastery Lineage Gems choice to apply to a Lineage Support boss area even when its normal biome is not Forest.

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 100% or more Waystone Drop Chance. In practice, this is usually a 0 revives Waystone, so plan around the lower safety margin.

BiomeWhy it matters
ForestBest target when Forest Mastery: Lineage Gems is selected, because that choice increases the chance to find Lineage Supports in Forest areas.
Mastered Domain mapsUse the required Mastered Domain Irradiated Tablet to make affected maps also count as Forest, letting the Forest Mastery choice apply outside natural Forest biomes.

Based on the current PoE Ninja market, these are the main high-value gems to watch:

Garukhan’s ResolveZahmir, the Blade Sovereign in Sacred ReservoirSupports self-used Attack skills without an existing use condition. Gives supported skills maximum Critical Hit Chance, but makes that chance bifurcate.
Uul-Netol’s EmbraceXesht, We That Are OneSupports damaging hits. Grants extra Chaos damage and lets Chaos damage contribute to Armour Break.
Atziri’s CommunionConfirm sourceSupports Persistent skills, making them reserve Life instead of Spirit. Cannot support skills that create Minions.
Dialla’s DesireGlobalSupports any skill with levels, increasing level and quality while reducing cost and reservation.
Rakiata’s FlowManoki, the Chosen in The Jade IslesSupports damaging hits, causing those hits to treat enemy Elemental Resistances as inverted.
Rigwald’s FerocityVarloch and Avelyne in Derelict MansionSupports Attack skills. Grants Attack Speed at the cost of damage, or damage at the cost of Attack Speed, depending on Weapon Set.

Prices and rankings change. Check the PoE Ninja Lineage Support Gems market before committing to a long farming session. Gem descriptions and source notes are checked against current reference data.
