Description

The Altar of Ascension is a special gauntlet-type area, where you must attempt to get though seven rounds of enemies. In order to move on, you must defeat all enemies in a round before going to the next. After each round, you can choose whether you'd like the next round to be Easy or Hard. Needless to say, you'll fight much harder enemies in a Hard round. Consequently, the enemies also get harder if you bring more people with you. However, you're put on semi-even odds with your enemies, as your stats will increase to balance out with the enemies (much like the balancing in PvP).

• The Altar of Ascension does not require and fatigue points to enter, nor does it consume any.

Restrictions

• You can enter the Altar of Ascension up to 3 times a day.
• Entry is restricted to the first 10 minutes of every hour.
• Much like the Altar of Infinity, you're free to use whatever consumables and Cube Frag skills you have.
• You are limited to 4 life tokens uses per run.
• Going in with a Party makes the monsters stronger.
• Sacred Blessings WILL NOT work or take effect.

Death & Rewards

You'll gain Item Cards and extra experience based on how far you made through the Altar. The more rounds you complete, the more Item Cards and EXP you'll get. However, the max amount of Item Cards is limited to ten.

Enemies may also drop Heaven's Medals when defeated. Hard enemies and Luminous Andron will have a very high chance of dropping them. Heaven's Medals can be traded at Iris for 1 of 3 different types of Luminous Andron cards which enchants a Sub Equipment.

Completing Altar of Ascension may reward you with a Bind Sphere or Gold Bind Sphere. Going through more hard monsters will raise your chances of obtaining a bind sphere. Bind Spheres are used to combine 2 rare equipment and generate a high level one. Gold Bind Spheres combine 2 legacy or unique equipment into more powerful ones.

Monsters

• Each monster is set dependent on the round. The 1st and 7th rounds are always the same. You'll have your choice of enemies for the 2nd through 6th rounds.
