First Ascent

[sacamultidofus1]

Hello everyone,
I would like to know when to make the first ascent and with how many points to invest in which improvements?

You want to do it relatively early, because it unlocks something rather key in progressing faster and further (area prestige, points you gain by clearing an area and that you spend to make the area and the whole region better).

For points, you want to prioritize area booster (by far the most important one early on, so as many levels as you can) and guild exp (since there are several things unlocked by guild level, whatever points remain after area booster), but if you have enough points for active hero slot expansion then it can be nice to grab it in your first few world ascensions (not necessarily the first one though).

I held first ascesion for abit to have extra points to spend and for passive bonuses. First rank in walk the world was probably the longest.

For the bonuses, guild xp is big deal as it let you lvl guild much faster and unlock quite abit world ascesion milestones (reach guild lvl x under y time) right away, so throw few points into it.

1 or 2 points to prerebirth 1 points - these would again help with milestones, namely rebirthing under certain timer and beating bosses in time. 1 or 2 points in skill proficiency may help with boss.

Area booster is important for faster progress and town mats farming. But its not that important to have it right after ascension. Milestones gives you extra points, so you can go with just 1 lvl and buy more once you beat timed milestones, i was able to get 25 milestones after first ascesion, which gave me quite alot more points to buy even extra passive hero slot along of improving guild xp/area boost/skill profi.

When does this option appear? I've been playing for about 4 hours now.

4 hours is nowhere near long enough. The World Ascension feature is unlocked by clearing tutorial 12 global quest, it will be still too early to actually use it for most people.

This is my personal opinion...
I think First Ascent should be done as soon as it becomes possible.
Prestige points have a huge impact.

Gamemasters recommend EXP boosting builds,...Negative.
but they are not very useful in the beginning.
More important is to "prioritize area boosters"
Doing so will dramatically increase the speed and growth rate of the game.
Without getting this first, game is over. lol

It is best to be conservative with guild EXP boosts (20 is reasonable at first)
allocate points to other items as needed, and repeat the increase while considering the milestones that can be achieved.
