“Timeline Keepers”
-
The Story:
- Player’s activity looting items within the Timeline Web has caught the attention of the “Timeline Keepers”, a group of mischievous treasure hunters. Timeline Keepers traverse the Echo Web, searching for the most valuable items they can find and steal them.
- Timeline Keepers are evasive, stealthy creatures that have a random chance of spawning in an Echo when you run it. They contain incredible treasure if slain.
-
How it Works:
- If present, Timeline Keepers will spawn in a random spot in your Echo. When you venture close enough to one, their position on the map is revealed and pinged for you. Once this happens, the timer begins!
- At the top of your screen a timer will appear, giving you X seconds to kill the Timeline Keeper before if escapes back into the Echo Web. (Probably something like 30-45 seconds).
- If you kill the Timeline Keeper before it escapes, it drops the treasure it’s been thieving.
-
Rewards:
- Loot drops from the Timeline Keepers are randomly generated. However, they are guaranteed to drop extra loot based on the reward of the Echo you are running.
- Example: If your Echo reward is Idols, the Timeline Keeper will drop a bunch of random items, PLUS is guaranteed to drop a number of idols.
- If your Echo reward is a Unique or Set item, the Timeline Keeper will drop an additional one.
- If you kill the Timeline Keeper before it escapes it also rewards extra Timeline Stability.
- Loot drops from the Timeline Keepers are randomly generated. However, they are guaranteed to drop extra loot based on the reward of the Echo you are running.
-
If you Fail:
- If you fail to kill the Timeline Keeper before it escapes, you don’t get any of its rewards and it will steal Timeline Stability from you.
-
“Blessing of the Keepers”: (Very Rare)
- Very rarely, when slain, a Timeline Keeper will Open a new “Blessed Monolith” that the player can click on. This Monolith offers 3 new Echo choices, all having 100% increased rarity chance and 50% increased drop rate. Players may choose 1 of these Echo’s to run.
-
New Echo Map Reward Type: (Rare)
- In addition to Timeline Keeper’s having a chance to spawn in each Echo you run, Timeline Keepers are also a new Reward type on the Echo Web Map. Running an Echo with Timeline Keepers as the Reward changes how they function.
- In a Timeline Keeper Echo, 3 Keeper’s spawn throughout the map. When the map begins, you get a 2-minute timer to kill all 3 Keepers. Killing each Keeper will extend this timer by 2 minutes.
- Timeline Keepers in these Echo’s buff all enemies around them, increasing their damage and health by 25%.
- Each Timeline Keeper in this Echo drops loot based on the adjacent Echo’s linked to this one in the Echo Web Map.
- (I.e If you had an adjacent Echo with the “Set Item” reward type, each one of the Timeline Keepers in this Echo will drop a Set Item.)
- In addition to Timeline Keeper’s having a chance to spawn in each Echo you run, Timeline Keepers are also a new Reward type on the Echo Web Map. Running an Echo with Timeline Keepers as the Reward changes how they function.
