By reaching maps your setup should look like this
This setup with 4-Link would allow you to farm T1-T5 rare maps
Here
you can find the detailed leveling guide
Life
Resistances

Soul of Yugul : Put the Cursed Crypt and Divine Vessel into the Map Device and run the map
Right Click on the vessel to unlock the bonus

Soul of Lunaris : Put the Moon Temple Map and Divine Vessel into the Map Device and run the map. Right Click on the vessel to unlock the bonus
Repeat with Necropolis Map for the next Tier
Repeat with Peninsula Map for the next Tier

Pantheon : Soul of Lunaris + Soul of Yugul

Would recommend to buy second Life Flask for this purpose
Take Headsman. Use both Divine Font usages to add quality on Dual Strike
Here you can find current UberLab scheme

Uber Lab info :
This setup will allow you to handle up to T14 maps
Make sure to have enough accuracy rating for Precise Technique
The rest gear
Quick and Deadly is a must have node, second node might be whatever but preferably should be Hit and Run
If you are poor and want to make it cheaper - increase passives from 8 to 10
First Large Cluster Jewel
Base jewels x2
6-Link
Silver Flask / Freeze immunity
Jade Flask / Increased Evasion Rating
Quicksilver Flask / Attack Speed
Granite Flask / Increased Armour
Life Flask Instant life recovery and bleed immunity
Flask setup
To finally switch to Dual Strike of Ambidexterity we would need to buy two cheap uniques :
Varunastra should cost around 5 chaos, Brightbeak - 1 chaos
(Varunastra must be in main hand)
If you cannot afford Varunastra yet - keep using Boneshatter, it can carry you to mid-yellows until you have enough currency for Varunastra
(You can buy a one-handed weapon that is not a sceptre/mace instead,
you should also buy a helmet with 300+ accuracy rating for Precise Technique in this case)
When you have Varunastra or similar one-h weapon - adjust the Tree :
Replace Ruthless with Rage Support(a2)
(Keep Ruthless, swap it back vs Eater/Exarch)
Add Culling Strike to Ancestral Protector(a2) / Remove after Uber Lab
Add Berserk(a4)
Also buy Multistrike(a4) / Volotality (a2), level in offhand until 5/6-Link
This would make you farm maps up to T7

Gear progression
*Items and colored Text contain promts on hover and links on click
lvl70 gem setup
5-Link would also work
Buy one more cluster and base jewel
Add the jewels :
Remove Cloth and Chain
To figure out what maps you have to run to complete the pantheon - open atlas and enter it's name
Every league the maps are different
Your further setups :
*All items have promts and links on hover/click

Middle Setup Item Order/Explanations

Roll 'Strike Skills Target an Additional Enemy' (Exarch Implicit)

Ryslatha
If you run Exarch Influence - upgrade and use Pantheon of Abberath asap

Increasing damage by ~40%. You should already have a 6-Link with Volatility

High Accuracy roll would allow to replace War Banner with Dread Banner(a3)
Allocate Entrench / Take Lucky Spell Supression chance Mastery
14% Spell Suppression chance from the Helmet + 10% x2 from Hit and Run on Large Clusters + 17% from Entrench + Lucky Mastery = ~75% spell suppression chance
Roll Reduced Mana Cost of Attacks (Eater Implicit)
1
Helmet with Spell Suppression / Accuracy
5
Megalomaniac x4

You want to have Quick and Deadly on every cluster and possibly one decent notable on top of it
Ideally you want 1-2 jewels with Devastator
If you are tight on currency - buy the cheapest with two trash notables
Make sure the Quick and Deadly notable is next to Nothingness node so you wouldn't have to spend an additional point to grab it
Not sure about the availability of Megalomaniacs on the first day of the league
Remove Soul of Steel / Merciless Skewering to get passive points for the Megalomaniac jewels
Add a cheap Watcher's eye to offset the Merciless Skewering removal

x2
x4
3
Paradoxica

Paradoxica must contain Chance to Impale
The cheapest suffix that would work for us is Crit Multi, Attack Speed is a bit better but used to cost a lot
You can now turn to Crit, adjust your passive tree :
Buy a cheap base jewel with mana leech to offset the tree changes
Buy Brightbeak with Onslaught Implicit
Replace Silver Flask with Diamond Flask
Remove Vulnerability / Ancestral Cry
Add Assassin's Mark+Mark on Hit+Lifetap
Remove Impact / Grab Overwhelm
