Hey everyone, we’ve got some exciting changes to share to end Closed Beta with a bang. We’re adding another day of Ascension, more floors to climb in Spires and rotating our Eternal Item Sets. (Two sets are leaving, two are returning).
Closed Beta will end at Midnight PT (between Sunday and Monday) on July 27th. So, there are only a few more days for you to grind out the last items in your Collection and pick up your exclusive cosmetics! The three Book Rewards from Closed Beta won’t be available again in the future, so grab them while you can!

Eternal Item Set Rotation
We’re shaking up the meta by rotating two Eternal Item Sets out, with two sets returning. Leodin and Ravah will be leaving us. Grimwold and Tsu’bo will be returning.
This is something that we’ll do periodically to help keep things fresh.
5 More Spires Floors
We’re adding five more floors to Spires. Originally you could climb to Floor 5, as of today, you’ll be able to climb to Floor 10 and earn even more pages. This should help you grind out your Closed Beta Collection before it ends on Sunday. You can see the updated page-progression per floor below.
Pages Per Floor

Floor 2 - 75 (+1 attempt)
Floor 3 - 100
