Zone Events
- At random times, the Ghost Ship will cross the zone, along one of three paths. Wherever it crosses land, it will spawn ghosts.
Neighborhoods
- The Argo Highway, which stretches from the south west corner, almost to the south east corner. Freakshow (levels 23-24) and Warriors (levels 21-24) are common to this area. Banished Pantheon also appear along the eastern most stretch of the highway.
- Circe Island is middle group of three island groups north of the main island. The Circle of Thorn (levels 23-25) use it to commit their dark rituals.
- Eleusis is along the eastern warwall, just north the Dark Astoria gate. Devouring Earth (levels 25-27) roam here.
- Helen Point is a warehousing district north of the Skyway City gate. It is under control of the Tsoo (levels 20-22).
- Ithaca Island is the southeastern group of islands which are north of the main island. Circle of Thorn (levels 20-22) can be found roaming here.
- The northeast corner of the main island is New Corinth. The BiotechniX building (mutation store) can be found here, as well as the Arena. Warriors (levels 21-22) and Tsoo (levels 21-26) are often seen fighting in this area.
- New Sparta is the northwestern corner of the main island. The Future Dynamics (natural store) and the Deimos Innovations (science store) buildings are in this area. The entrance to the old Paragon Dance Club used to be in this area, but has been closed with the opening of Pocket D. Tsoo (levels 21-27) control this area.
- New Thebes is the south west area of the main island. Freakshow (levels 20-22), Tsoo (levels 22-23) and Warriors (levels 20-24) constantly battle for control of this area. You can find the Freedom Corp Special Forces office (training store) and the medium, Tabitha Fabish (magic store) here. Cryptic Studios has two offices in this area, one of which actually leads to Pocket D.
- New Troy encompasses the south east portion of the main island. The Green Line monorail station is here, with Citadel (task force contact) and Luminary (hero trainer) standing next to it. This area also contains the Base Portal, the Cygnus Medical Center (Hospital) and Exarch Industries (technology store).
- The area around the hospital is the Phoenix Medical Center.
- Scylla Island is the northern most group of islands off the northern coast of the Talos Island. The Circle of Thorn (levels 26-27) and the Devouring Earth (levels 25-27) share this area, appearently without conflict.
- The Serpent's Teeth is a rocky area north of Helen Point, and contains many Devouring Earth (levels 25-27).
