Old World

Site Positioning

The Old World site is part of the 500-site expansion plan. It starts by covering four search-heavy needs: story route, skills and gear, combat tactics, platinum and achievements.

This site begins as a stable index. Future work should split it into specific quests, gear pages, map routes, system explainers, update notes, and video-led guides as demand appears.

Live Sections

Starter Route	Starter Route	What to do first and which early goals matter
Systems & Builds	Systems & Builds	How to judge core systems, gear, characters, or resources
Map & Quests	Map & Quests	How to route regions, missions, and cleanup
Completion & Updates	Completion & Updates	Collectibles, achievements, updates, and long-tail content
