Ancient Powers are obtained through the game's prestige system. In exchange for losing almost all progress in the game, you gain a passive bonus EXP and [[Gold]] bonuses, and Ancient Powers that applies apply to all players in your game session. It is intended for end-game players who've have exhausted all other methods of improving their characters (eg. obtained maximum gear, all the shards they need for their heroes, etc.).
Obtaining Ancient Power for the very first time requires the following conditions to be met:
* Beat [[Onslaught]] floor Floor 30
* Reach [[Ascension]] level 250
Each time you reset, the floor Floor level requirement increases, but the ascension Ascension level requirement does not. If you do not have a minimum ascension Ascension level of at least 250, you may need have to spend extra time farming experience before you can do another reset. The more minimum ascension you can get before your first reset, the easier it will be to solo your way back up to your next target floor. Generally, it is recommended that you reach Chaos 9 (which skips you to floor 300) before resetting for the first time.
See the [[Ancient Power Calculations]] chart for more information about minimum starting floorsFloors, the minimum floor Floor required to do your next reset, and how minimum ascension Ascension is calculated.
Once you are ready to do a reset, speak to [[Mananode]] in townTown.

= Stacking & Caps Powers = The maximum amount of points you can put into each ability is 5. However, since Ancient Powers are a global buff, it can be stacked up to a maximum of 10 when additional players join who have the same powers. If Player 1 has 5 points and Player 2 has 5 points in Ancient Ability Power, it will combine to 10. However, if Player 3 joins and also has 1 point, it will be ignored because the cap has already been reached.
