How this chapter fills
Reach the first tier. The Codex files the whole ladder the moment you step onto it.
All entries
Arena Champion
legendaryThe arena keeps a tally whether or not you asked it to. Most people find out they are being counted somewhere around the fortieth win.
Unstoppable Force
epicA streak is the only number in the game that can be taken from you by one bad afternoon.
Rising Star
legendaryA number that goes up when you win and down when you lose, which sounds simple until it is your number.
Boss Hunter
legendaryCounts the ones that stopped moving. It does not count the ones that stopped you.
Battle Hardened
epicNot wins. Fights. There is a kind of respect reserved for people who kept turning up.
Rift Walker
legendaryEvery contract you took to the end. The board does not remember; this does.
Ascension
legendaryThe oldest number in any of this, and still the first one anybody asks you for.
Knowledge Seeker
epicCounts what you learned, not what you currently have — a respec cannot take this back.
Fortune Seeker
epicEverything that ever passed through your hands, including what you spent immediately and regret.
Salvager
rareSomebody, somewhere, is wearing your old boots and has no idea.
Diamond Collector
epicThe premium currency, counted by a book that cannot be bought.
Brotherhood
rareThe shortest ladder in the Codex. One rung, and it is worth more than most of the tall ones.
Generous Soul
rareThe guild keeps records of who gave. Nobody talks about them. Everybody reads them.
Pen Pal
rareSomebody has to start the conversation. It is measurably rarely the same person twice.
Daily Dedication
epicNot skill. Not luck. Just being here again, which is harder than either.
Purple Haze
rareThe tier where players stop apologising for their gear.
Legendary Arsenal
rareThe tier where other players start asking where you got it.
Mythic Ascendant
legendaryThe tier where the question changes from "where" to "how long did that take".
Power Surge
legendaryOne number standing in for every other number. Useful, reductive, and impossible to stop looking at.
Trial by Combat
rareEveryone remembers this one. Almost nobody remembers the second.
Into the Unknown
rareThe first time you sent yourself somewhere and had to wait to find out how it went.
Giant Slayer
rareIt was probably Rotfang. It is almost always Rotfang.
Walking Legend
epicEight slots, all of them legendary. The hard part is not the first seven.
Ascended God
legendaryEight slots, all mythic. Fewer people have done this than have named a pet after themselves.
Diamond Hands
rareAt this rating the arena stops matching you with people who are still learning.
Millionaire
rareA million gold, earned. Not held — held is easy and lasts about a week.
