• Tips and Recommendations

 

↖ Keystones Passives Event

• Start date: 2pm November 3rd
• End date: 2pm November 10th
• Based on: Ancestor League
• Platforms: PC and Console

The Keystones Passives Event is making a return, but with a twist. In March 2023, it was a forced solo self-found or group self-found event with a focus on running a certain distance in the game. However, this time, it's all about flexibility and challenge.

Here's what you need to know:

• You'll have seven days to develop your Atlas in a version of the base game that offers reduced character power.
• The passive skill tree will be shuffled, including minor passive tree skills, notables, and keystones.
• All aura classes will be scattered, making your passive tree more challenging to navigate.
• It's a softcore trade event, and your character will transition to the ancestor softcore trade league when the event ends.
• Expect a five times XP penalty upon death.

This event is ideal for those seeking an additional challenge and unique character interactions. Don't forget to adapt your strategies for this altered passive tree.

 

↖ Blast from the Past Event

• Start date: 2pm November 10th
• End date: 2pm November 17th
• Based on: Standard
• Platforms: PC and Console

The Blast from the Past Event brings back Sentinels and Kandra mechanics. Sentinels, previously underestimated, now shine as they drop powerful loot. Kandra, too, has improved since its initial release.

Here's what you need to know:

• Sentinels and Kandra mechanics will coexist in this event.
• Expect powerful jewelry drops and the chance to craft amulets more potent than ever before.
• The event is softcore trade and character progress carries over to standard.
• A five times XP penalty upon death applies.

This event offers high character power and opportunities for crafting unique items. It's a must-play for those aiming for long-term progress in standard.

 

↖ Shifting Stones Event

• Start date: 2pm November 17th
• End date: 2pm November 24th
• Based on: Standard
• Platforms: PC and Console

The Shifting Stones Event is a voided event with a unique twist. Inspired by Mayhem and Turmoil events, it dials up existing Atlas keystones in each zone.

Here's what to keep in mind:

• Each zone will have one of five keystone combinations, adding unpredictability and loot to areas.
• Prizes are available, including ancestor mystery boxes.
• Characters will be deleted at the end of the event.
• Expect a five times XP penalty upon death.

If you enjoy chaotic encounters and don't mind the voided nature of the event, Shifting Stones will offer a thrilling experience.
