Hidden far beyond the common man’s reach, one can find the once forgotten Tessa Temple. It is here that inspiring Immortals and Gods find ancient portals leading to some of Aelion’s abandoned regions, now classified as Hostile Territories. Immense power awaits here, drawing hordes of Invading armies to the numerous Ether Resonators located across the lands massive expanse. Each portal leads to a new Region, each Region holds stronger enemies, and every enemy faced becomes more powerful the deeper one ventures into these dangerous areas.
Hostile Territories are an activity designed for a group of up to 5 players and attempting to complete them alone could prove to be a grave mistake. Enemies in these regions are deadly and numerous, covering the majority of the location, making simple navigation a troubling task! Even so, the rewards provided by these areas are extremely valuable to the advancement and general preparation of an immortal seeking to ready themselves for any impending threats. Those that are having troubles should look to raise their Tactical Sense as it’s a very important stat for negating the sturdy defense of these hostiles - Having a tactical sense that is far too low makes attempting to reap the rewards much more difficult. Increasing this stat can be accomplished through the acquisition of Tactical Sense Fragments from bosses found within Skyforge’s Raids.
Upon forming a group, or joining one after making the jump, players may begin their search for an available Resonator. On the Region’s map, a blue marker displays an available resonator while a red marker signifies that it’s currently occupied by another group. Successfully traversing to a resonator and activating it provides players with a task to kill specific enemies or have the option to slay a powerful boss for instant completion. Upon successfully defeating the opponents, the group will be presented with the option to cash out and receive the current rewards or continue, earning even higher rewards!
Enemies within these territories drop an abundance of useful items like equipment or extremely valuable trophy fragments. The latter of which varies between fragments of all quality levels and due to the large amounts dropped here, allow for a much faster advancement of fully completed trophies. The Ether Resonators themselves, after choosing to receive your reward, converts the energy it has absorbed into large amounts of Sparks of Evolution to assist with the advancement of the individual Class Atlases. Finally, completing of the Hostile Territories quests award Sparks of Revelation which are used to unlock various nodes throughout the Ascension Atlas. These nodes can off both beneficial stats bonuses as well as unlocking shortcuts & access to parts of the Ascension Atlas that has otherwise been blocked.
Hostile Territories are highly rewarding but equally difficult. Completing this activity requires a competent team capable of battling powerful opponents who only seek to harness the power for themselves. Defending Aelion is a top concern and the enemies who plague these lands are a constant threat that cannot be left unchecked. Begin your journey to these hostile territories, immortals, but be wary for these opponents are much more than they appear.
