What is Prestige in Project Ascension?
Prestige mode is a new feature added in season 7. Prestige mode allows players who have reached max level to reset their character level to 1 and start leveling again. Doing so awards the player with various exclusive Prestige titles and the Prestigious Cache, which contains gold, Prestige tokens and some pieces of max level Epic dungeon gear!
Prestige mode is repeatable, meaning you can reset, level to max, obtain Prestige rewards and carry the definition of character progression to a whole new level.
What are the benefits of doing Prestige in Project Ascension?
Every time you prestige, you gain access to a variety of benefits, including Prestige Tokens, Heirloom Gear, Scrolls of Fortune, Prestigious Caches, and Marks of Ascension.
Rewards: Per completed prestige level[]
- x1 Prestigious Cache – Contains gear, Marks of Ascension, and enchanting supplies. Contains epic loot according to stat type up to high-tier raid gear, but can only be opened upon reaching max level.
