You increase your elemental force (Willpower, Insight, Resilience, Lucidity, and DreamSoul) by gaining Orbits. With every Orbit gained, you gain one point in at least one element. Your focus element will advance faster than the others.
Dreamers advance in Orbit by gaining Experience Points (XP). Dreamers gain XP in many ways. For more detail, see the Dreamer's Manual. Every tenth Orbit is known as a Sphere. You do not automatically attain a Sphere just because you have enough XP. You must seek out a Teacher powerful enough to Ascend you to the Sphere you are ready for, and fulfill the requests by that Teacher to qualify for Ascension. These include missions, quests, duties or other requests. For more detail on quests and the role of a Teacher, see the Teacher's Manual.
Second Focus Requirements and Progression
Dual Focus Rules and Details:
- Taking on a second focus is one of the three options to embark on your 9th sphere journey. The choice is completely up to you to choose which one is more suitable for your dream.
- If you decide to not take on a second focus and still seek 9th, you must adhere to the rules of sphere via Quest or Mastery path.
- After choosing your secondary focus, you will be reset to orbit 0 and given a codex from the Elder excusing you from any sphere tasks. You will still be required to gain sphere supports for spheres that require them. You will then be able to start regaining your spheres and tasking for the arts/plateaus of your secondary focus. You will still have your primary focus arts, but they will temporarily go down in level to your current orbit and will automatically increase as you gain orbits/spheres.
- If you are unhappy with your choice at any point during your second focus journey, you may change your second focus. Your orbit will be reset back to 0 and the arts you learned/plateaued will be stripped for a fresh restart. You will not be able to pick up where you left off.
- Keep in mind, if you decide to remain pure focus and skip the dual option, you can change your mind later on after receiving 9th sphere and receive your dual focus but you will have to start over and abide by the rules of the second focus.
