FATEs are short open battles either against either a single boss (purple symbols) or multiple waves of enemies (blue symbols), the latter of which are tied to the Persistent Pot minigame. Up to one boss FATE may spawn at a time per instance. The pot FATEs spawn on a 30 minute timer and alternate between the two possible FATEs.

  • Stand atop the aetherial node when it becomes available to register interest in the duty.
  • If more players than can enter the duty are atop the node, participants will be selected at random.
  • Should you fail to be selected, your next entry will be given priority.

Extreme difficulty

The Forked Tower: Magic (Extreme) is an optional challenge mode similar to The Forked Tower: Blood The Forked Tower: Blood. To enter:

  • Players must form a premade alliance of at least 12 total players in at least 3 parties outside of the Occult Crescent.
  • A preformed alliance meeting these conditions will enter an "extreme-mode" North Horn instance.
  • Upon entering an extreme-mode instance, the Forked Tower will immediately become accessible.
