What Are Transcendence Dungeons?

Timed Runs With Stage Debuffs

Beat the clock

You fight through packs of mobs to fill a kill goal before time runs out.

Optional bosses

Two bosses guard the way. Killing them adds their loot to the final cube.

Debuffs per stage

Each stage above the first adds a nasty effect, so bring cleanses and healing.

Reward count refills

You get one more reward claim every 12 hours, so short daily runs work fine.
