What is new in the Asherona Event, and What's Staying the same?

Altar of Fate looks unchanged

The Altar of Fate is where you convert your Valor Coins into the Event Currency or Titan Leveling Resources. It's also the primary way to get more Asherona Soul Stones, and level up your Asherona Artifacts.

Any Rare or Limited Items: YES

This is the ONLY WAY to get Asherona Soul Stones, and Asherona's Artifact Weapon Fragments right now.

If you're looking for the most efficient way to get Asherona Soul Stones, Check out the Asherona Event Relic Leveling Guide
