THRONE AND LIBERTY News

Calanthia awaits in our first 12-player Raid, Altar of Calanthia, on June 26. Join Road to Raid activities starting on May 29 for rewards that will prepare you to face the Command Marshal General of the Arkeum Legion.

Road to Raid will feature different content every few weeks, like an adventure through your favorite game modes. The first two weeks kick off the event with Co-Op Dungeons and Field Bosses. The festivities will continue in the following weeks via Dimensional Trials and Nebula Island. Looking for tougher challenges? A new variant of Tevent with different mechanics will also wreck havoc for a limited time.

While you’re improving your gear, Calanthia will be preparing a ritual to resurrect Revillele Lupius. Vanquish Calanthia in the Raid before her dream becomes a nightmare for all of Solisium. Altar of Calanthia will launch with both normal and hard difficulties. Look forward to more information on a third difficulty tier in the future.
