How To Complete Ascendant Challenges

Players will have to consume the Tincture of Queensfoil, which will reveal the portal to the Ascendant Plane. The Tincture of Queensfoil isn't a rare resource and can be acquired easily by completing public events, patrols, or pretty much any public activity in Dreaming City. Also, the effect of Tincture of Queensfoil last only for 30 minutes, so players will have to consume it again if they fail to find the portal in the given time. 

Once players have acquired the bounty from Petra and consumed a Tincture of Queensfoil, they can use the portal in that location to reach the Ascendant Plane. The Ascendant Plane spawns Abyssal Champion enemies that soak up a lot of damage. The best way to clear the Ascendant Challenge is to keep running, instead of waiting to slay every Abyssal Champion or the Knights that spawns.

It could take anywhere between 10-15 mins to complete a single run of the Ascendant Plane. Players must loot the chest at the end of the area to complete the Ascendant Challenge and gain sweet rewards in the process. Dying even once in the Ascendant Plane will return players back to the Dreaming City, and they will have to navigate the entire thing all over again.
