- Argos – Void raids are a brand new end-game activity. Like the Guardian raids, players must work together with others to defeat the Guardian before time runs out, while having a limited number of respawns for the group. In Abyssal Raids, eight people fight a Guardian, but these Guardians are bigger, meaner, and much stronger than the average Guardian. You will have to go through three separate stages, working together with your allies to defeat your colossal enemy. The power of the goalkeeper will increase, and with each phase he will have different attacking mechanics and behavior. Each stage offers different rewards, which can be received once a week, and different level requirements for those who wish to participate.
