Introduction to Grayspace and the Vera Sector
Tower of Fantasy‘s version 2.0 update introduced an electrifying cyberpunk-themed area called Vera. This new sector advances the storyline concerning Grayspace – a strange otherworldly dimension revealed after the catastrophic Cathastrophe hundreds of years prior.
Little is known about Grayspace or the entities that inhabit it, which is what makes the opportunity to track them down so exciting as a streamer. This questline provides a ton of lore reveals and memorable streaming moments.
The level cap has also been raised to 80, so be sure to take advantage of the "A Fresh Start" and "Stellarway Restart" events to boost your battle pass XP. You‘ll want to be suitably leveled before taking on the Grayspace entity itself.
Now let‘s dive right into the step-by-step walkthrough!
Step-by-Step Walkthrough to Track the Grayspace Entities
After accepting the "In-transit Observation" quest in Vera, seven quest markers will show up guiding you along the path the Grayspace entity took. Reach each marker to pick up its trail.
Detailed Guide to Quest Markers 1-4
The first four markers are located on Vera‘s main landmasses. I‘d highly recommend equipping a fast mount like the Scarlet Scythe or Caterpillar to speed up travel between them.
Here are the optimal routes I found for each marker:
| Quest Marker | Recommended Route |
|---|---|
| 1 | Glide north from Transhub Teleport Point, then ride east past the hoverpads |
| 2 | Climb the hill east of Marker 1 and ride along the ridge line |
| 3 | Go north from Marker 2‘s ridge to the waypoint, then swing west |
| 4 | Circle around Echo Hill from Marker 3, use grapple points to ascend |
As you traverse these areas, keep an eye out for chests and resources to stock up on. Don‘t rush – part of the streaming fun is taking in the dazzling scenery!
You will encounter some new Vera enemies like Degen Breachers and Winda Spinners along the way. Here are some tips for taking them on:
| Enemy | Recommended Strategy |
|---|---|
| Degen Breacher | Use shieldbreaking weapons to penetrate their defenses |
| Winda Spinner | Stay mobile to evade their vortex attacks |
Using the routes above while prepared for enemies will get you smoothly from mark to mark.
Climbing to the Tricky Fifth Quest Marker
Quest marker 5 is when things get really interesting. It‘s located at the top of a tall mountain peak off Vera‘s main landmass.
You‘ll first need to climb the cliffside to the east of the Repulsor Tower. I found the best spot to start climbing was just to the right of the waterfall flowing down the rocks.

Ascend the cliff while replenishing your stamina at the resting spots whenever possible. The clifftop vantage point provides an awesome streaming reveal of Vera‘s scope!
Once atop the cliff, you‘ll see the fifth quest marker in the distance atop the mountain. There‘s too far a gap to glide across, so you‘ll need to make a daring leap from the cliff over to the sloped mountain walls.
Here are some tips for sticking the landing:
- Get a running start and leap at max speed
- Activate your double jump or dodge ability at the height of the jump
- Use your mount‘s leap ability for an extra boost
- Aim for the rock outcropping halfway across to land there first
This pulse-pounding leap makes for an amazing stream moment when stuck!
Following the Remaining Markers
The final two markers don‘t require any death-defying platforming – thankfully!
Just use your mini-map and terrain scanner to chart optimal paths through the mountains. Watch out for enemies like Hedronites blocking the route. I‘d recommend a long-range or sniper weapon to pick them off from afar.
Reaching the seventh and final marker will complete this leg of the quest.
What To Do After Tracking the Entities
After tracking the escape route of the Grayspace entity, you‘ll get some rewards and unlock the next quest – "Aberrant Cognition".
This tasks you with finding and destroying the Grayspace Entity‘s true body to stop it for good. The battle takes place in a new instanced dungeon called the Abysmal Refuge.
I highly recommend partying up with friends or matchmaking before taking it on. The entity has powerful zoning attacks and high HP requiring coordinated group tactics.
Here are some tips for taking it down:
- Bring shields to guard against massive AoE attacks when it charges up
- Use shatter weapons when it enters its armored phase
- Take out the smaller adds it spawns immediately
- Save your discharge skills for when it‘s stunned
Defeating this epic enemy completes the Grayspace questline for now and provides some sweet rare loot!
Tips and Recommended Builds for Hunting Efficiently
Tracking these cunning Grayspace beings takes the right set of skills and equipment. Here are my tips as a veteran Tower of Fantasy streamer:
-
Bring a relic with increased mount stamina – This lets you boost longer between objectives without slowing down. The Schwarz relic is perfect.
-
Use a shieldbreaking weapon – Many Vera enemies have armored phases. A high-charge hammer can smash through.
-
Equip a grapple hook – Grapple points allow you to efficiently scale cliffs and mountainsides.
-
Run stunning attacks – Crowd control abilities like Zero‘s discharge skill can create breathing room when overwhelmed.
-
Partner up – Playing co-op makes traversal and battles way more fun! Coordinate abilities with your stream partner.
-
Stack endurance – Prioritize gear with high HP/defense to weather enemy attacks during long treks.
Following these tips will help you adroitly navigate Vera‘s threats on your grayspace hunt!
The Lore Significance of Grayspace Entities
Beyond just the new gameplay opportunities, uncovering more about Grayspace drives much of Tower of Fantasy‘s overarching narrative forward. Let‘s look at some of the lore reveals from tracking these interdimensional entities:
-
Grayspace creatures likely crossed over during the cataclysmic Rift event hundreds of years ago that re-shaped the planet. This event remains shrouded in mystery.
-
Grayspace seems to exist outside normal dimensional space given the entity‘s elusive teleporting abilities. This suggests planes of existence we cannot yet comprehend.
-
The entity‘s hostile actions hint that Grayspace may pose a threat. But their full motives remain unknown – are they exploring, colonizing or assimilating?
-
Defeating the Grayspace entity could be the first step to unravelling the true origin of the Rift and protecting humanity from future catastrophes.
As a streamer, I love how this narrative expands the lore while raising even more intriguing questions. It adds a great sense of mystery and otherworldliness to exploration. Each encounter pushes us closer to the truth!
