Introduced:  From Darkness, Light

Introduced in the 11th anniversary update, Olthoi Play is a system designed to allow players to jump right into the higher level Player vs. Player action without the need to spend vast amounts of time leveling and collecting gear. The downside is that Olthoi Play is highly restricted.

To take part in Olthoi Play, you must create a new character and select one of the two Olthoi breeds. Olthoi Soldiers are melees that attack with piercing damage, and Olthoi spitters are mages that attack with acid damage.
