General information

Planes of Power added high-end content to the game aimed specifically toward higher level players and provided more challenge and diversity to the game than had existed prior to the expansion's release. In addition to adding new zones to the game, the expansion also introduced a network of portal points through the game realm, via which players could quickly and easily travel to and from various regions through the central plane, called the Plane of Knowledge.

The primary goal, or end-quest, of Planes of Power is access to the Plane of Time. Access to this plane can only be obtained through the completion of four large scale encounters involving the death of planar deities and deific creatures. These encounters can only be completed with the organized effort of between 40 and 100 players working together simultaneously.

The recommended level, unofficially, for venturing in the various planes introduced in the expansion is 55 or higher, although most players prefer to organize groups with players who are, at a bare minimum, level 60.
