Arena
Warning:
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:
- Defeat the monsters in the current stage to progress to the next
- Dead members can be Revived
- Characters can use Visit and Invite
- 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.
