Test a Vaal Temple route before you commit rooms, upgrades, or a boss-focused plan.
This free interactive Vaal Temple planner turns a rough Atziri idea into a visible grid. Place rooms in game-logic mode, switch to manual mode for experiments, inspect effects and Generator coverage, then save or export the layout when the route makes sense.
Start with an empty grid or load a preset. The editor shows the entrance path, room adjacency, upgrade tiers, Generator coverage, and active effects in one workspace. It is designed for players who want to check an Atziri route without rebuilding the same idea in-game.

Why use a Vaal-specific planner?
The homepage planner is the broad Temple workspace. This page narrows the decision to Vaal Temple and Atziri planning: where the boss route begins, which reward branch is worth protecting, and whether a Generator or support room actually helps the plan you want to run.
That distinction matters when a layout looks strong on paper but the entrance path cannot reach the rooms that carry the value. A Vaal-specific pass lets you compare a boss route, a currency fallback, and a recovery plan before you spend a Medallion or commit to a difficult branch.
Use this page for a working plan, not as a guarantee of drops or a replacement for the Temple state in your current run. The editor reflects the room and upgrade data shipped with this site; the game can change with patches and with the rooms you are offered.
How to plan an Atziri Temple layout
A useful Vaal Temple plan has one clear goal, one reachable route, and one fallback. Build the route in that order instead of filling the grid with high-value rooms first.
1. Start with the entrancePlace the rooms that define the route from the entrance, then check whether the path can reach Atziri or your intended reward branch without relying on a perfect future connection.
2. Pick one primary payoutChoose boss, currency, experience, corruption, or recovery as the main objective. A plan that tries to maximize every category at once usually loses its strongest route.
3. Protect support coveragePlace Generator, Thaumaturge, Spymaster, or Golem Works only when their coverage improves several rooms you still expect to use. A support room in an isolated corner is not automatically valuable.
4. Test tiers and Medallion useUse the tier controls and Medallion palette to model an upgrade. If the upgraded room breaks access to the boss route or removes a better fallback, keep the lower-tier version.
5. Save or export the resultSave the plan locally for another pass, or export the URL hash when you want to share the exact grid. Reopen the link before a run to confirm the plan still matches your goal.
Planner limits and safe checks
In-game logic is a placement aid, not a complete simulation of every encounter. It can show adjacency, tier behavior, Generator range, and visible effects, but it cannot know the rooms that will appear in a future Incursion, the strength of your build, or whether you personally can clear Atziri safely.
Before entering, compare the saved grid with the actual Temple Console. If a room is missing, the route is blocked, or the boss plan is no longer realistic, switch to the fallback objective instead of forcing the original layout.
Use manual mode for brainstorming, then switch back to in-game logic before treating the route as feasible.
Check at least one reachable reward branch when building for Atziri.
Do not read a high tier as a guaranteed drop or a guaranteed profit result.
Recheck the plan after a patch or a major room-data update.
Keep one exported URL for the boss plan and another for the safer fallback plan.
Vaal Temple presets for common goals
Load a starting point, then adjust it to the rooms and path you actually have. Presets are examples for testing the editor, not promises about the best possible reward.
BOSS
Atziri Hunter Route
Goal: Boss access with a reward fallback
A boss-first starting point that keeps combat support and a secondary value branch visible while you test the final route.
Use this when Atziri access is uncertain and you want a layout that still has a clear currency-focused fallback.
Priority rooms: Smithy, Alchemy Lab, Reward Room
Planning difficulty: Medium
BALANCED
Safe Temple Plan
Goal: Keep the route flexible
A forgiving layout for runs where the final boss route or room list is still uncertain.
Priority rooms: Reachable path, support coverage, backup reward
Planning difficulty: Low
XP
Experience Route
Goal: Keep density and clear speed together
A test layout for experience-focused runs where safe pathing and room coverage matter more than a single boss reward.
Priority rooms: monster density, support rooms, clear-speed path
Planning difficulty: Medium
Frequently Asked Questions about the Vaal Temple Planner
It is a Vaal Temple-focused landing page that reuses the site's interactive Temple editor. The extra copy and presets are centered on Atziri routes, boss access, support coverage, and fallback rewards; the homepage remains the broad planner entry point.
In-game logic highlights placements that connect to the rooms already on the grid. Manual placement lets you sketch a target layout without those restrictions, which is useful for comparing ideas before checking feasibility.
You can use it as a layout simulator: place rooms, test tiers, inspect effects, load presets, and export the grid. It does not simulate combat, drops, future room offers, or a guaranteed Atziri outcome.
Start with a reachable route, decide whether the boss is the primary goal, then keep a reward fallback and enough support coverage for the rooms you can realistically use. Test the route here and compare it with the live Temple Console before committing.
No. A layout is only as good as its reachable rooms, the current Temple state, your build, and the objective of the run. Treat presets as starting points and recheck the actual Temple before entering.
Use the Temple room connection cheat sheet for fast lookup, then return here when you need to test the complete grid and see how the selected rooms work together.
