NEW TO DAUNTLESS
HEROIC RADIANT ESCALATION
Take on the Soulreaper Chronovore in the ultimate radiant challenge. Complete Heroic Radiant Escalation to unlock the Crest of the Chronovore crown. Conquer all six Heroic Escalations and acquire each crown to gain access to the legendary Crown of Many Colours. Heroic Radiant Escalation enters the weekly rotation on June 23.
RETURN TO LIGHT: THE STORY CONTINUES
Each week brings more challenges and new story quests. As the Return to Light season comes to a close, Priyani has one last favour to ask of Slayers. Perhaps she’s finally figured out a way to rid the Isles of the Chronovore — for good.
RADIANT ESCALATION REWARDS
The Standing Paradox banner standard and the Beacon of Ages lantern skin can now be obtained by reaching level 25 in Radiant Escalation. If you have already reached level 25, you can claim these items from your inbox.
RADIANT ESCALATION: LEGENDARY LANTERN AMPS
In Radiant Escalation, we’ve added legendary lantern amps that are only available with a particular lantern equipped. While rare, these amps are extremely powerful and mix up Escalation runs in truly legendary ways. The Shrike’s Zeal and Broadside lanterns were the first two with legendary amps added in 1.10.4. Now, Drask’s Eye and Embermane’s Rapture lanterns also have corresponding legendary amps.
- The Eye of the Lightning Rod legendary amp is only available to Slayers who have the Drask’s Eye lantern equipped. Using your lantern plants a pair of Tesla Towers that continuously fire at enemy targets.
- The Rapture Eruption legendary amp is only available to Slayers who have the Embermane’s Rapture lantern equipped. Your lantern ability is an explosion that leaves behind a permanent pool of aetheric fire that increases the attack speed of Slayers within it and deals damage to Behemoths.
