The Shaper: As mirage becomes reality, hardship is briefly quenched.

Desert Spring Map (War for the Atlas) is a map area.

Layout

The map tileset is based on The Oasis in Act 9. The layout is open, with a small body of water in the middle surrounded by trees. There are some leftover campgrounds acting as obstacles. The boss arena is located at the far end of the map in relative position to the start.

Encounters

Boss

The Terror of the Infinite Drifts, based on the Shakari, Queen of the Sands fight in Act 9. After reducing the boss's HP to about 2/3rd's, she burrows under the sand, forcing the player to follow her in a narrow walkway filled with quicksand and spawning scorpions while her tail attacks you with Sunder, ultimately leading her to the new boss arena, which is also filled with quicksand.

Her attacks include:

  • Burrowing under the ground and unburrowing shortly afterwards
  • charging and unleashing a large AoE attack that deals massive damage
  • swiping her tail in large cleave around her, granting a debuff to the player that creates purple poison clouds around the player

In Phase Two she can also:

  • Perform multiple burrows and unburrows in a row
  • Burrow and become untargetable while her tail uses Sunder

3.16.0
  • This map has been removed from the Atlas.
  • This map can no longer drop.
  • You can still use your existing maps in the Map Device.
  • You can trade your existing maps to vendors. You will receive other maps that are still in the Atlas.
3.9.0
  • The Atlas of Worlds has been reworked. You now start at the centre and will work your way outwards as you explore a new storyline.
  • Added a new mechanic - Watchstones: These can only be obtained by defeating one of the new Atlas bosses. They can be used to raise the tier of all maps in a particular region of the Atlas, causing all maps of those base types to drop at the new higher tier.
3.5.0
  • The Atlas of Worlds has been shuffled. Most maps have changed tier and location within the Atlas.
  • The Atlas will now be shuffled every league. [Undocumented This change was not documented by any official sources. It was discovered through player testing or datamining.]
3.2.0
  • The boss encounter in the Desert Spring map now has two unique scorpion enemies during the pursuit phase of the encounter. This phase also now has amphoras for players to bust open. Defeating the boss now enables portals into and out of the boss room.
3.1.0
  • The entire Atlas has been reworked. Many map names have changed, as have their balance, tier and position on the Atlas. Many maps have also had their boss fights swapped or completely reworked.
  • The rules used to generate monsters in endgame maps have been significantly reworked and rebalanced around the rate at which we expect players to reliably clear out the map. In general, narrow, linear maps will contain fewer total monsters than maps with complex layouts. We will be closely monitoring and adjusting the balance of this change and expect to make further changes and improvements over time.
  • Oasis Map was renamed into Desert Spring Map. Terror of the Infinite Drifts became the new map boss, replacing Planus, Hollow Soul. [Undocumented This change was not documented by any official sources. It was discovered through player testing or datamining.]
2.4.0
  • Added to the game.
