The Fissure of Woe

How to gain entrance

Players can only gain entrance to the Fissure of Woe from the following outposts:

• Temple of the Ages ( Prophecies campaign)
• Zin Ku Corridor ( Factions campaign)
• Chantry of Secrets ( Nightfall campaign)

Providing the player's region has the Favor of the Gods (attained by winning matches in the Hall of Heroes), they have the chance to kneel at the alter of Balthazar and pay 1 platinum (1,000 gold) for entry to the Fissure of Woe.
