New things available once you become an avatar!

Extra Outfits. Hidden Dimension (Off-Plane). New abilities to train. Access to Crystal Exchange. Access to the Dev Server. Spectral Items.

You become an avatar when you reach level 80.

Avatar represents the highest level of power a player can reach within Legacy. Upon reaching level 80 a player becomes an Avatar, gaining access to a previously hidden place known as Off Plane (short for: off this plane of existence). This extra dimension grants the Avatar access to abilities and more. However, becoming an avatar does not represent the end of your journey on Legacy. Once you reach level 80, you may choose whether or not to continue leveling (players who continue to level gain no advantage overr those who choose not to). A lot more work is still required for avatars to reach their maximum potential.

Observatory

Using their powers avatars can work here, in their endless pursuit of knowledge some of the founding avatars in the sanctuary created this observatory. Both for mapping the universe from a safe location and exploring it first hand. for more information please visit the Observatory page.

Astral Vision: Gives you a chance to see invisible avatars as ghostly figures when they enter your area. Unlocks Avatar white eyes.

Radiance: Unable to attack or be attacked, can still inflict damage in Self Defence.

Cloak: Works the same as hiding except you retain the ability to move and it has no cooldown. You must spend 5 minutes worth of focus to cloak, you then get 5 minutes free after that it costs 10 focus points per tick (decreases 2 points per ability level). Focus regen stops while cloaked. Unlocks black eyes.

Scan Area: At a cost of 30 focus points you '/scan' your area for any enemies hiding or invisible.

Time Control: Decreases job time by 15% and increases speed by 10 points per ability level.

Yet, they are predominantly represented by the combat abilities which provide a major edge in battle.

Crystal Exchange

Crystal Exchange (click for full screen)

The Crystal Exchange is one of two ways for avatars to gain an edge equipment wise. By using turns, tokens, and crystals, an avatar can create godlike equipment and further boost his stats. This used to be called Item Crafting but an update that is still in production later changed this. The only other way for an Avatar to gain godlike weapons is from hunting Tyran. Tyran however does not drop armor.

History

The Avatar system is constantly under work, so as to improve upon the overall gameplay experience. This is a brief history.

Ability Training

The Old Ability Training (click for full screen)

The old Avatar training system it was scrapped when the new abilities came out.

Special abilities included Time Control (half job times) and Enhanced Vision (white eyes, see through stealth). In addition to this, avatars could choose to specialize in one weapon type (Melee or Gun) and specialization in either Speed or Armor.

It had costed various amounts of turns for each ability, of which upon scrapping, caused public outcry over not being reimbursed, Zorg simply stated, "You got to use it for a while, it was still worth it"

Avatar Gallery

Below are a few images of people getting to avatar, getting drops from the Avatar Lord.

The First 50 Avatars

The first Avatar to be seen was Messiah, but as he was just a test account for staff to test the Avatar system, he isn't really counted.

The 16th avatar, Wlohwg, was banned for multies and massive funding. He was later reset, leaving the hive with 25 avatars again.
