Guides

Getting started
Cinders of Chaos is a dark fantasy online RPG with its own client. You hunt, collect loot and build your character your way. This guide covers the first minutes.
Progression: what to do next
Lost? In the game, open Adventure > Next Goals. It lists the goals of your level band: what to do, why it matters, where to go (one click opens the window or marks the place on your map), your progress, a small reward…
Picking a class
There are 7 class lines. Each starts with a base class and ascends into one of two classes. That is 21 classes in all and 97 spells.
The passive tree and example builds
The passive tree has 662 nodes. You will never have points for all of them, so every choice counts.
Items and crafting
Items are the heart of the game. One good drop changes your build.
Rifts and the Atlas
Rifts are the main endgame content. Every rift is a new map, generated on the spot, with a time limit and a guardian at the end.

Instanced content to play alone or in a group.
Raids, bosses and events
Group content on a schedule: world bosses, the weekly raid, the Ascended challenges and the calendar events.
