Summary
The "Code of Creation" update marks the climactic conclusion to the Visions of Eternity expansion cycle. This release introduces a significant amount of endgame content, including a new open-world map, a dedicated raid encounter, and a new Fractal. Players can also progress through a new four-tier mastery line focused on Rift hunting and craft the expansion's final legendary weapon.
New World and Story Content
Players can now explore Leyspring Hollows, the final map of the expansion, which hosts the conclusion of the story across six new chapters. This area introduces unique environmental mechanics tied to the new mastery line.
Endgame Encounters
Three major group content updates are included: the Nexus of Eternity (available as both a Raid and a Convergence) and the Solitary Throne Fractal. These encounters offer high-level challenges and exclusive rewards like the Volatile Ascension infusion.
Rift Amplification Mastery
The new Rift Amplification mastery line allows players to interact with Rifts more efficiently. It includes the ability to teleport directly to active rifts via Rift Tears and "overcharge" rift events for increased difficulty and better rewards, eventually expanding these benefits to all of Tyria.
Rewards and Wizard's Vault
The update features the Wages of Stars legendary sword, which features unique sheathing behavior and celestial animations. The Wizard's Vault has also been refreshed with the Gwyl Knight weapon set and new pieces for the Ward Hunter armor set.
