The Realmgate

Tooltip

The Realmgate is a piece of Vaal Technology which allows the use of Atlas mechanic keys; accessing deadly areas and facing off against powerful enemies.

The Realmgate (also spelled Realm Gate) is a feature found on the Atlas that consumes certain splinters to open portals to endgame variants of encounters, often containing a pinnacle boss.

It is always located near the starting area of the Atlas, usually directly east of the Ziggurat Refuge icon. It appears as a large circular portal decorated with triangle and gear-like motifs.

Version history

Version	Changes
0.3.0	Currently, access to most Pinnacle Content requires the same key at the easiest, and most difficult version of the content. This creates a negative feeling where at lower difficulties, instead of wanting to run the content, you're often better off just selling it to someone who can run it at maximum difficulty. To address this, each content (excluding The Arbiter of Ash) will now drop Splinters, which will not form into singular Items. Instead of using the singular, combined item in the Realmgate, you can now just bring your Splinters. Upon inserting the splinters into the Realmgate, an interface will appear allowing you to pick your difficulty, each with a different entry cost. As a result of this change, the corresponding Atlas Passive Trees no longer affects the difficulty of the content, and has been changed to purely affect the content in the Maps on the Atlas. Olroth, Origin of the Fall no longer spawns in Logbooks.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
