Nodes

Are what make up the entirety of The Ascension Atlas. They are divided up into node clusters which are primarily comprised of bonus nodes with a core node in the center. Nodes can give bonus to a number of different stats as well as unlock Symbols, Abilities, Talents and Classes.

## Destruction Nodes

Destruction Nodes, commonly referred to as Red Nodes, are unlocked via Sparks of Destruction. They increase the character's Might, Proficiency, and Prestige. In the Class Atlas they are also sometimes used to unlock Abilities.

To unlock a Destruction Node, the player will need to spend anywhere up to 810 Sparks of Destruction.

## Creation Nodes

Creation Nodes, commonly referred to as Green Nodes, are unlocked via Sparks of Creation. They increase the character's maximum Stamina, Proficiency, and Prestige.

To unlock a Creation Node, the player will need to spend anywhere up to 810 Sparks of Creation.

## Balance Nodes

Balance Nodes, commonly referred to as Blue Nodes, are unlocked via Sparks of Balance. They will increase Prestige and can increase Strength, Valor, Luck, or Spirit. In the Character Atlas they can also increase Greatness. Balance Nodes are also used to unlock Symbols and Talents.

To unlock a Balance Node, the player will need to spend anywhere up to 810 Sparks of Balance.

## Path Nodes

Path Nodes are free nodes that may be unlocked around 1/4 of the way through a Class Atlas. Once the very first Path Node is unlocked, the Character Atlas is revealed to the player.

Unlocking a Path Node also changes which Sparks are used in the Class Atlas. All nodes past a Path Node are Evolution Nodes.

## Evolution Nodes

Evolution Nodes, commonly referred to as Class Nodes, replace Destruction, Creation and Balance Nodes after unlocking the Path Node in a Class Atlas. However, unlike the Destruction and Creation Nodes, Evolution Nodes will not increase a character's Proficiency.

To unlock a Evolution Node, the player will need to spend anywhere up to 250 Class Sparks or Sparks of Evolution.

## Ether Slot Nodes

Ether Slot Nodes are unique in comparison to other nodes. They are free to unlock and once they are unlocked the player can slot Ether Cores into the slots. To be able to put Ether Cores into the slot, the player must pay Argents and have found a matching Ether Core. For every Ether Core of an individual stat slotted, the price for the same stat Ether Cores will increase.

Might: 350
Stamina: 720

## Transformation Nodes

Transformation Nodes are found on the Character Atlas and are used to unlock Classes.

To unlock a Transformation Node, the player will need to spend 300 or 600 Sparks of Transformation.

## Revelation Nodes

Revelation Nodes, commonly referred to as Pink Nodes, are unlocked via Sparks of Revelation. They will increase Prestige and can increase Might, Stamina, Strength, Valor, Luck, or Spirit.

To unlock a Revelation Node, the player will need to spend 300 Sparks of Revelation.

## God's Form Node

The God's Form Node, once unlocked with a Spark of Divinity, grants access to the Divine Form and the Divine Atlas.

To unlock the player will require a diamond shaped item that is unlocked by finishing a storyline Quest which starts at 30,560 Prestige.
