Hybrid Risk System
Ascension's Hybrid Risk System places your playstyle at the forefront, allowing you to shape your adventure precisely the way you want. Whether you're seeking peaceful exploration or adrenaline-packed PvP, this system lets you choose your path without compromise. Every server accommodates all Risk Styles, ensuring that PvE enthusiasts and PvP warriors alike can enjoy their unique preferences while benefiting from the energy and excitement of a unified player community.
You have the freedom to switch your Risk Style whenever you desire, easily changing modes within Capital Cities and Rested Zones, allowing continuous personalization of your experience.
PvE Mode
In PvE mode, your journey is safeguarded from unwanted player combat, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in quests, exploration, and cooperative gameplay. Team up seamlessly with friends in No Risk PvP mode to quest throughout the open world and collaborate across all modes in dungeons and raids, sharing adventures without ever engaging in player-versus-player battles, preserving the integrity of your chosen experience.
No Risk PvP
Choosing No Risk PvP mode connects you directly to the nostalgic thrill of classic PvP servers. Enter contested zones alongside your PvE friends, engaging in spontaneous player combat against other PvP-flagged adventurers while your PvE companions remain safely immune to player combat, allowing you to enjoy playing with friends who prefer to avoid PvP gameplay.
Optional High-Risk PvP
High-Risk PvP is a completely optional risk mode designed for players who seek intense, adrenaline-fueled combat with tangible stakes. Engaging other players in PvP carries the risk of losing gold and valuable High-Risk crafting materials if defeated, but for those who prevail, victory in battle rewards you with gold and a share of your opponent's High-Risk materials. This mode enhances your exploration by introducing exclusive Bloodforged PvP gear and unique crafting materials obtainable only by defeating creatures in the open world. High-Risk PvP transforms your gameplay into a high-stakes adventure, where risk and reward intertwine to deliver unparalleled excitement.
The Hybrid Risk System empowers you to play exactly as you desire alongside your friends and the entire Ascension community no matter what PvP style they prefer. This flexibility and integration mean you never sacrifice social interaction or group opportunities for your preferred playstyle. Whether you’re collecting materials, engaging in intense PvP combat, or peacefully adventuring, the Hybrid Risk System allows you to create an engaging experience tailored entirely to you.
