Ancient Magic Hotspots increase players’ ancient magic meter, which gives players a powerful, ultimate-like ability whenever fully charged. In battle, Ancient Magic can completely eliminate even the most powerful enemies.

Ancient Magic Hotspots can be difficult to find but are all identified based on a magic aura pulsating from the ground. The visual is similar to the initial portkey players encounter in the early stages of the game.
