Path of Ascension, one of the most awaited Wild Rift events, is finally live with the introduction of patch 2.1b.

Wild Rift players can acquire Leona, Diana, or Pantheon along with other in-game items, like Poro Coins, Blue Motes, icons, and emotes just by completing the event tasks. But Wild Rift players must be aware that they can acquire any one of the three champions for free within these twelve days.

In addition to the tasks in the Path of Ascension event, additional skins for each of the three champions have been released. They are available at the Wild Rift store at a discounted price.


Path of Ascension event in Wild Rift and its description

The official event description reads:

"Runeterra's tallest peak, Mount Targon seems to pierce the very heavens. Little wonder, then, that it has played an eternal role in the celestial dance, both mythic and modern, a cornerstone of the sun, the moon, and the stars themselves. Countless have attempted to scale its sheer face in search of glory or wisdom, but the few who have succeeded speak not a word of their journey."
"Your time has finally come to join these fearless mountaineers in ascending Targon's treacherous crags. Yet one question remains: which aspect of the heavens will you champion?"

The first thing a player should do before getting along with the event is choosing an ascension path. A Wild Rift player will be able to pick any one of the following three paths for ascending towards the Targon's summit.

  1. Path to Aspect of the Moon, joining Diana in her moonlit quest for truth.
  2. Path to Aspect of the Sun, becoming a radiant pillar of faith like Leona herself.
  3. Path to Aspect of War, to aid Pantheon in his endless battle with divinity itself.

Players must choose their path carefully as there is no option for turning back.
