Breach

League

Touch a hand in the ground to open a portal that spawns massive waves of monsters — kill as many as you can before it closes.

What it is

Breaches appear in maps as a pulsing hand reaching out of the ground. Touching it opens a Breach — a temporary portal that stays open as long as you keep killing monsters. The longer it stays open, the more Breach Splinters drop. Combine 100 splinters of one type to get a Breachstone (a dedicated Breach encounter with a boss).

When you encounter it

Breach hands appear randomly in maps. They're quite common and one of the simplest mechanics to engage with.

Key concepts

  • Five Breach types: Chayula (chaos), Tul (cold), Esh (lightning), Uul-Netol (physical), Xoph (fire)
  • Each type drops different splinters — combine 100 to make a Breachstone
  • Breachstones are run in the Map Device for dedicated breach zones with a boss
  • Breach rings and Blessings of (type) are valuable currency
  • More kills = breach stays open longer = more splinters

Tips for new players

  • 💡Stay in the breach and keep killing — movement speed and clear speed matter here
  • 💡Don't stress about Breachstones early — sell the splinters for currency
  • 💡Chayula Breachstones (chaos type) are the most valuable
  • 💡Breach is one of the best league mechanics to invest in via Atlas passives
