These events will run throughout the season, with specific dates to be announced soon.
• Expeditions Unleashed: World Bosses – Players can rally their allies to take on colossal threats during limited-time, open-world events featuring a weekly rotating roster of iconic enemies from Expeditions. Face off against iconic level 70 foes like Mammoth Mahantaram, Scarab Boss Khepri and Fire Naga Ifrit and more to earn up-leveled loot, including one guaranteed 725 GS item and multiple 710+ drops per event.
• New Artifacts – Season of the Divide also introduces seven powerful new Artifacts, including The Old Crown, which boosts all attributes with gem bonuses, Relentless which provides team armor and healing, Vampire Vestments which synergizes lifesteal and mana and many more.
