Arena

Warning:

This page is in draft.

Arenas are party-based instances for a wide range of character levels. They are accessed via portal entrances or Arena Managers.

Each arena is a timed challenge that rewards bonus experience for each stage that is completed. Arenas can be completed by 1-2 parties of 3 or more characters. Each party member must be within the level bracket for the chosen arena.

PvE arenas involve a single party defeating enemies per stage to advance to the next. PvP arenas are similar to PvE stages, but also include a second party for player versus player combat. Completing a stage grants each party member additional rewards, usually experience.

Mechanics

• Arena Managers can be found standing outside the entrance portal to each arena. The party leader can talk to them to start their party's instance.
• Parties must have a minimum of 3 characters and each must be within the level bracket for that instance (eg. Snow Storm/30-35 requires all characters to be level 30 to 35).
• When the party is summoned into an instance, they are presented with a "Engaging and Notices" window. This summarizes the rules and expectations of the arena.
  • Essentially:

1. Defeat the monsters in the current stage to progress to the next.
2. Dead members can be Revived.
3. Characters can use Visit and Invite.
4. Position Memorized locations cannot be used outside the instance.

• Completing a stage grants additional rewards, usually experience, to all participating party members.
• If the timer runs out before the stage is completed, the stage is failed and all party members are teleported back to the arena entrance to try again.

• Snow Storm
  • Palmas — spawns level 26-39 monsters over the course of 5 stages, concluding with facing the area boss, Apsalas
