Open World
Camping

Dying is a part of life in Aeternum, but fortunately you can respawn at your camp. Place your camp in strategic areas, such as before hard boss fights or in open world PvP, so you don’t have to run too far when you inevitably die.
You can also craft or change your camp's skin by interacting with it. You can craft basic consumables and gear at camps that you may need out in the wild, such as potions. More advanced crafting is available at workstations in Settlements.
Fort Buffs
Forts are strategic PvP control points in each territory that reward the owning faction with a bonus. You can find out what bonus each Fort provides by hovering over its map icon.
Outside of Influence Races, Forts are locked for one hour once they are captured. During an Influence Race, they do not lock once captured.
Territory Standing
While active in a territory, your reputation within that zone will spread, tracked as your Territory Standing. Your standing in each territory is separate.
Ways to increase your Territory Standing include:
- Crafting
- Completing Town Projects
- Destroying Corrupted Monoliths (requires an Azoth Staff)
When you level up your Standing, you can select a card to upgrade specific bonuses within that territory. These bonuses include:
- Increasing experience gain
- Lowering taxes and fees
- Increasing storage capacity
When reaching Territory Standing 1, you can unlock House Ownership which will allow you to purchase houses located in that territory’s settlements. Houses have multiple uses but you can only own three houses across all territories.
There are many advantages to increasing your Territory Standing all across Aeternum so be sure to build up your reputation in the territorigs you frequent most!
