Risk brings you fame inAlbion Online, and the highest risk always brings you the most rewards. If you’re a rare type of player that has a squad of people ready to dive head first into danger — The Roads Of Avalon are for you, where you’ll find riches unknown to most of the population of Albion.
In 2020, The Roads of Avalon were introduced for solo players, and up to groups of twenty or so players, to enjoy a risky but rewarding late-game area for every type of player. This guide will show you how to get there, what you can find, and give tips along the way.
What Are The Roads Of Avalon?
The Roads of Avalon are a separate area from the rest of the Albion world, existing inthe center of the Outlands— which is the second and larger continent, with Black Zones only.
Much like the Outlands, the Roads of Avalon alsoonly have Black Zones. When you die to a player,you lose everythingyou had on your person.
Every Avalonian area has a specific use, and the way to access themchanges constantly. No area is in one place at all times, and no area can be accessed the same way at all times.
How To Get To The Roads Of Avalon
Across the world of Albion, you canfind Avalonian Portals. These lead you straight to Avalon, and can be found inevery area above tier 4in both the Royal Continent and the Outlands.
Every portal has a set timer for when it disappears, and aset amount of chargesplayers can use. Once a player enters the portal,one charge is used up, and each charge recharges after five minutes.
There arethree types of portals:
The tier of the areathat has the Avalonian portaldictates the tier of the Roadyou’re about to enter, thus T4 zones will lead to T4 Roads of Avalon.
How To Decipher Portals In Avalon
Once you’re in Avalon, you’re able to findother portals leading to new areas. These can either leadback into the continents, or toanother Roadof Avalon.
Portals have podiums withthree sliding circles. These circles indicate what awaits on the other side of the portal, and you can decipher them using the Avalonian Codex:
The outer circle determines thetype of area you will be visiting. Starting from the hollow circle symbol, going clockwise, the symbols translate as follows.

What Can You Find In Avalon?
Avalon is thebest place to find lootfor small and large groups, and solo players can enjoy thebest method of obtaining resources. Both parties can enjoy all the rewards, and there is content for each type of player. Avalon also has some of the best combat Fame rewards in the entire game.
What Loot Awaits In Avalon
In Avalon, you can hope to find most activities you can find inregular Black Zones, including Corrupted, Solo and Group Dungeons and world events like Crystal Spiderlings and Small and Medium Treasure Chests.
There is someAvalon-exclusive contentto be found, however, such as:
Avalonian Raids require you to find thespecial portals associated with them, and then mapping out the way you got there so you may signal to your Guild to join in on the fun.
Chests, on the other hand, spawn in almostevery single Road you visit, and have a quest associated with them.
How To Find And Clear Chest Camps
Chests that are locked behind camps arethe main content in Avalonfor most players. They requireclearing camps, by killing most of the mobs in the area.
You don’t need to hunt down every last one, since the chest will open whenenough mobs are killed.
Each large chest icon you see on the minimap or local map has a camp of mobs around it.The color of the chestsignifies the difficulty, and target audience, of the camp — andthey go as follows:
These camps are difficult, so we recommend always having at leastsome healing abilitesto help you clear them.
They have a rarity system, from Common to Legendary, and the rarity of the chest is the same for the entire party clearing the camp.
The quality of loot you obtain depends mostly on thetier of the zone you enter, and a quick way to determine this if you haven’t read the portal rings is tocheck the tier of any mobsthat aren’t resource mobs. They will always be the same tier that the zone is.
What Resources Await in Avalon?
Apart from the loot, Avalon offersthe best place to gather resources. All five types of resources can be found here, and they range from tier 4 to tier 8, depending on the tier of the Road you’re in.
The reason Avalon is the best is because ofspecial resource mobsthat can spawn here;The Old ElementalsandThe Aspects.
Whilst regular resource nodes and resource mobs have only five resources to offer, Old mobs haveexponentially more resourcesdepending on the tier —up to a few hundredat lower tiers. Old mobs arefar harder to kill, however, so you may need either a strong build or a duo to heal you.
There are also, very rarely, The Aspect resource mobs.These are boss enemies, which require asmall groupto defeat, or at least avery strong duo team, and they have even more resources than Old mobs.
Enchanted resources can spawn in Avalon too, but are slightly rarer than in the open world.
