Immediate One-Time Priorities

Before diving into group content, focus on activities that give permanent power boosts:

Empyrean Trace Collection (Feathers): Collect all 140 feathers spread across the world. Turn them in at the Monolith in your starting city to earn Skill Points and Amulet Enhance Scrolls, both essential for boosting your amulet slot.
Sealed Dungeons & Strongholds:
Clear all Sealed Dungeons on your faction map (e.g., Verteron for Elyos, Altgard for Asmodians). These grant Daevanion Points to upgrade your skill tree.
Complete Strongholds for Belt Enhance Scrolls, crucial for belt upgrades.
Cross-Faction Rifts: Rifts to the opposing faction open every 4 hours. Running their Sealed Dungeons and Strongholds adds more Daevanion Points and belt upgrades.
Daily & Weekly Progression

Once your gear reaches around +5 (GS ~1,300–1,400), start tackling recurring content:

Duty Quests (Hotkey J): Up to 5 quests per day. Rewards include Abyss Points for PvP gear and Aial Traces for stat-boosting crystals.
Expedition Dungeons (Conquest):
Draupnir (1,000 GS): Solo or group runs for Bakarma Armor, comparable to starter Abyss gear.
Vakron Sky Island (1,600 GS): Farm high-tier Gold Gear for endgame progression.
Transcendence Dungeons: Like a “Mythic+” system in other MMOs. Clear mobs and bosses to earn Arcana Cards, which upgrade skills and item level.
Daily Dungeons: Complete up to 7 per week to farm Enchantment Stones, essential for honing all your gear.
