In the upcoming Legacy of Phrecia event there have been a number of changes made to Ascendancy classes. In this news post we’ll cover all of these changes as well as any extra information that you might need to put your plans together.

Since the announcement last week we’ve changed our plans on what leagues would be available. You’ll now be able to play in SC Trade, SC SSF, HC Trade and HC SSF. Unfortunately there will not be any Ruthless leagues for this round of events.
