Empyrean Onslaughts are timed invasion events that rotate across four Ascension hunting zones: Hinterwilds, Moonsedge, The Hive, and Sailor's Grief. When an Onslaught is active, invasion portals appear in the targeted zone and transport you to the Empyrean fleet. Each Onslaught runs for four hours before the fleet withdraws.
Use GEM ONSLAUGHT to check whether an event is currently active, where it's happening, and how much time remains.
System Updates
- Gem and Dust Rate Increase
Ascension Gemstones and Dust will now drop at an increased rate from Empyrean foes. Completion of Shadow's Descent is required to be eligible for this increased rate. The rate is further increased on Empyrean Airships, and is increased further on higher elevation Airships.
