Ascension
Not to be confused with the Ascension patch, part of the Open Alpha release
Ascension is an account-wide system in which players continue to gain virtually limitless power past level 50. It was added in the Trials: Endgame Update.
Description
The Ascension system allows players to upgrade their Heroes and Defense stats in unique ways through the use of Ascension points. Once any Hero in an account reaches level 50, experience will go into increasing Ascension Level. An Ascension Point is earned for every Ascension Level increase. Heroes under level 50 cannot apply any ascension points, however, upon reaching level 50, heroes can apply all ascension points that have been earned on that account.
Ascension points are spent on Ascension Powers by accessing the "Ascension" tab on a hero in the inventory. Once ascension points have been spent, they cannot be recovered unless the player pays a fee of either 200 Defender Medals or 50 Gems to reset the ascension points on a hero.
Ascension points are awarded every time the player levels up and fall into one of three categories: Offence, Defence and Utility. Offence deals with hero and ability stats, Defence focuses on defence power and health and utility focuses on miscellaneous upgrades such as movement speed and ability mana.
