Dawntrail Trials Home Page
Dawntrail will contain many trials and Extreme trials, challenging players and rewarding weapons, gear, and rare mounts. Three Normal difficulty trials and two Extreme trials will be available in Patch 7.0.
Normal Trials
New Normal trials will be released in Dawntrail. Players will challenge these trials to progress through the main scenario.
Worqor Lar Dor
Worqor Lar Dor can be unlocked at level 93 in the Dawntrail main scenario. It is the first trial players will encounter in Dawntrail. Players above level 94 will be level synced to level 94 when entering.
In the lands of Tural, there is a class of beasts which transcends the limits of the natural order─the tural vidraal. The mightiest of these, the feared and fearsome Valigarmanda, caused centuries of suffering until it was at last sealed away in the mountain fastness of Urqopacha by a young Gulool Ja Ja. Eighty years later, however, a foolish claimant in the rite of succession has seen fit to release the Skyruin from its icy prison. If you would spare Tural's people a new age of terror, then you must stand with Wuk Lamat against this flying calamity and its endless elemental fury.
Everkeep
Everkeep can be unlocked at level 99 in the Dawntrail main scenario. It is the second trial players will encounter in Dawntrail. Players above level 100 will be level synced to level 100 when entering.
Known as the Resilient Son for the miracle of his birth, the First Promise Zoraal Ja was driven solely by the desire to prove his worth. So it was that he had embarked upon the path of conquest, but it led him nowhere save to an empty summit. Having failed to win the throne and surpass his father, he remains consumed by his obsession and has devoured the souls of his own people in a bid to achieve his ends. For the sake of not only Tuliyollal, but the entire star, you must put an end to the struggle of this tormented man.
The Interphos
The Interphos can be unlocked at level 100 in the Dawntrail main scenario. It is the third trial players will encounter in Dawntrail. Players above level 100 will be level synced to level 100 when entering.
A world free of suffering and loss... This earnest wish, made by the young Queen Sphene in her final moments, was realized centuries later in the form of Living Memory, the twisted paradise behind the legend of the golden city. In order to obtain the aether needed to sustain the sanctuary's recreated denizens, Sphene has shed her conscience─the memories she had as a living person─to arise as within the Meso Terminal a terrifying entity possessed of absolute authority. Thus empowered, she now seeks to initiate interdimensional fusion and harvest the life force of people in other worlds, and it falls to you to stop her before untold lives are sacrificed.
Extreme Trials
New endgame Extreme Trials will be released in Dawntrail. Players can unlock these after completing the main scenario and the normal version of the trial. The first two Extreme trials will be harder difficulty versions of the first two normal trials. To learn more about acquiring gear to tackle these challenging duties, we recommend reading up on the Dawntrail gearing guide.
Worqor Lar Dor (Extreme)
Worqor Lar Dor (Extreme) is the first Extreme Trial of Dawntrail and is unlocked by talking to the Wandering Minstrel after completing the Dawntrail main scenario.
In a land of unfamiliar views and vistas, the wandering minstrel remains a familiar constant, as does his appetite for thrilling and fantastic tales. You speak with him of your clash with the dread Valigarmanda, and it sets his mind to racing─each strike a note to be woven into song, a tale of high adventure that will endure for generations.
Ever wont to embellish his retellings, he muses on a foe untouched by the fetters of imprisonment, a Valigarmanda who can bring its full might to bear. Would the Third Promise and her companions have emerged victorious from such a threat? Such is the question raised in your mind as melodies stir your memories, setting you before the mighty serpent once more...
Everkeep (Extreme)
Everkeep (Extreme) is the second Extreme Trial of Dawntrail and is unlocked by talking to the Wandering Minstrel after completing the Dawntrail main scenario.
In his blind pursuit to surpass his father, the Resilient Son lost his way, and set foot upon a path that distanced him from friends, comrades, and loved ones. At the end was naught but a twisted throne, before which Zoraal Ja consumed the souls of his own people in a bid to fulfill his hollow ambitions. Was it the pride of a king that consumed his heart in these final moments, or was his conscience weighed down by all he had done? The sorrowful notes of the wandering minstrel's song weave a thread of tragedy through the tale of the First Promise, and your heart grows heavier with each mournful chord. Memories of the encounter soon come flooding back, visions of a harrowing battle playing once again in your mind's eye.
The Minstrel's Ballad: Sphene's Burden
The Minstrel's Ballad: Sphene's Burden will be the Extreme Trial released in Patch 7.1 and will be unlocked by talking to the Wandering Minstrel after completing the Dawntrail main scenario.
