Settlers Atlas nodes are awful

Unfortunately they didn't rebalance or change how Kingsmarch works so basically all ore is useless and 5/6 crops are useless. None of the nodes on the Atlas tree will help you get more of 1/12 resources that are useful. Even if you want to focus on Kingsmarch, you would never spec into a single node on the atlas tree for it because they just add more ore.

The node that converts sulphite to ore, rarity from tormented spirits to dust and Harvest juice to crops is intersting but just flat out bad. I made an atlas tree with full Sulphite, Tormented spirits, Harvest spec and full Settlers and it was just a complete waste of time, probably the single least rewarding Atlas setup possible (actually worse than a blank Atlas).

The obvious solution imo is to make ore and the other crops actually useful/valuable.
