By browsing the map, players can unlock all classes, meet the inhabitants of Aelion, and fight back against alien invaders! The main campaign will take players through basic locations, which gradually introducing new activities. With this change, new classes and adventures will be unlocked at a much faster rate: you just have to reach the required Region, take part in a few adventures, and now you’re learning the basics of archery at the Marksmen Temple, or, perhaps, enjoying the warm sun of the Naori Island.

On the map, you can see nine provinces, each featuring various buildings that the player can interact with.

Interactive Map


The Regional Map will serve as a window to most of the usual activities, along with the usual list of adventures: Regions, Squad adventures, Group adventures, Raids, test areas, and the latest Invasion activities. Whole provinces will be engulfed by the flames of war, and you will have an easy time of determining which one needs your divine intervention!

Strongholds

This structure appears in every Region that was liberated from the assaulting forces. The bonuses that strongholds provide replace most of the nodes in the general Ascension Atlas. The character may increase the rank of the structure by completing corresponding quests, thus raising their Might. The building will be upgraded automatically once the required Might value is reached. As a reward, the character’s additional stats, passive abilities, and symbols will be upgraded.

Class Temples

To unlock a new class, you will now have to reach the corresponding Temple (which are replacing the class atlas) on the Regional Map. Unlocked classes have a limited amount of predefined starter skills but new abilities can be unlocked by completing quests issued in the Class Temple. At a certain point, the class development tree will be divided into PvE and PvP ability branches, both of which can be fully explored.
