Kill Monsters Immediately
Players should kill monsters as soon as they appear to avoid getting swarmed. Getting swarmed in the Breach phase will slow players down and put them in a dangerous position. Additionally, immediately killing monsters allows players to only worry about their front and not their backs or sides.
Stay Near the Edge of the Breach
Players should attempt to stay relatively close to the edge of the breach. Doing so allows them to kill monsters immediately, quickly figure out where the right path is, and smoothly follow it. Additionally, it makes the phase shorter as the sooner players reach the boss entrance, the sooner it finishes.
Interact With Clasped Hands for More Rewards
Players should interact with any Clasped Hands they encounter during the Breach phase. Doing so increases the rewards they receive upon completing the Breach phase.
Increase Twisted Domain Difficulty
Players can increase the Twisted Domain's difficulty for better and rarer rewards when finishing the Breach phase or defeating the boss. They can do so by unlocking the appropriate nodes in the Breach Atlas Tree.
However, note that doing this makes monsters more powerful and decreases the available respawn attempts, making the Twisted Domain less forgiving. As such, players should only do difficulties they know they can handle.
Max Out Chaos Resistance
As most, if not all, enemies in the Twisted Domain deal chaos damage, players should max out their Chaos Resistance to ensure survivability. This tip especially applies to players who rely on energy shields, as Chaos attacks deals double damage to energy shields.
Twisted Domain Location
Access Through the Realmgate Using a Breachstone
Players can enter the Twisted Domain by inserting a Breachstone in the Realmgate. Players can obtain a Breachstone by accumulating 300 Breach Splinters while running Breach maps.

Unique Breach Map With Boss
The Twisted Domain is a Unique Breach map accessible by a Breachstone. It is unique as it expands on the normal Breach mechanic on Atlas maps and has two phases that players must finish to complete the map.
Breach Phase
Timed Breach
The Breach phase is the first phase players must complete. It is similar to a regular Breach wherein players must interact with a large hand to start it. This time, however, a 45-second timer will begin counting down once it starts.
Players can add more time by killing enemies. If the timer hits zero, players will fail this phase and the map unless they have a respawn attempt.
Various Rewards at the End of the Phase
Players must reach the boss room entrance by following the linear path to complete the Breach phase. When the phase is over, multiple drops and rewards will spawn. On this note, monsters in this phase do not drop any items.
Boss Phase
Once players finish the phase, they can fight Xesth, We That Are One, in its boss room. Defeating it will grant high-rarity rewards and unique and exclusive drops.
Players Get 5 Respawn Attempts
As of the 0.1.1c patch, players get five respawn attempts. If players fail or die during the Breach phase of the map, they get teleported to the start of the map. Meanwhile, if players die while fighting Xesht, they are teleported to the boss room entrance.
Additionally, monsters will not grant additional exp for reattempts during the Breach phase.
