## Ultimatum Patch Notes

Ritual Changes
* Ritual Altars can now be found once you reach maps. Each map has a 8% base chance to contain Ritual Altars. Deferred items will reappear at later Areas at a higher rate to account for these changes.
* [[Ritual Splinter]]s will no longer be offered as rewards from Ritual encounters in maps that have been opened with a [[Blood-filled Vessel]].
* Added four Ritual Atlas passive nodes to the Haewark Hamlet Atlas region, which grant various bonuses to Ritual encounters. Please read the Atlas Passive Balance section for more information.
* Added three Ritual Watchstone modifiers, which grant various bonuses to Ritual encounters.

## Introduction
The Ritual league is a challenge league that launched on January 15, 2021 alongside the Echoes of the Atlas expansion.

In this league, a Ritual Altar can be found in each zone. Interacting with the altar encloses the player into a ritual circle, and they must fight a wave of enemies. [[Ritual]]s award Tribute which can be exchanged for items, including exclusive item bases.

## League mechanic
The Ritual league introduced the Ritual mechanic, which appears during the Acts and in Maps. Rituals allow players to activate Ritual Altars, slay enemies, and gain drops. It is one of the few mechanics in the game that allows players to select a drop of their choice. After activating the ritual altar you have to fight off a wave of enemies, who give you favor by defeating them; after the fight is over you can spend Tribute at the ritual altar and pick from a list of various pre-identified items that cost favor.
