Hey everyone, lemmingllama here. Today we’ll be delving deeper into the 6.0 update, and this time discussing Monuments. Monuments are special seasonal artifacts unlocked during Transcendence. You can read last week’s DevUpdate for information on how Transcendence works. This week we’ll explain in more detail about how Monuments will work. Let’s get into it!
To start, Monuments will use a new discovery system. Rather than receiving a random Monument when you use the Discover button, you will instead be able to select one of three random options. This can help you focus in on Monuments that best fit your needs. Monuments can still be salvaged though if you decide to change which ones you want later on.
Each new Transcendence season, we will have three Monument categories. These will help group Monuments into certain themes for both their artwork and bonuses, and will help make each Transcendence season unique based on what Monuments and categories are available for discovery. Each category will be themed around a group within Tap Titan 2’s lore. For Transcendence Season 1, we will have the Journey of the Vipers, Pirates of the Neverseas, and Celestial Temples as the three Monument categories.
In the below monuments, there are three new types of unique bonuses that can be found.
- Get X Bonus per Y Action This Prestige. These bonuses count the number of times you’ve completed a certain action during your prestige, such as defeating a type of special titan. The more you do that action, the larger the bonus grows, and it resets when you prestige.
- Get X Bonus per Y Action This Season. Similar to above, you need to perform a certain action, but it will continue to improve over time until the Transcendence season ends. For example, these could increment for how many prestiges you’ve done in that season.
- Get X Bonus while Y Spell is Active. This bonus will increase the bonus of one of your spells when a different spell is active. For example, gaining War Cry Damage when Fire Sword is active. This can change what spells you want to use.
Journey of the Vipers
Monuments from the Journey of the Vipers are themed around the Vipers, an ancient order of wandering warriors that have turned into a gang of bandits. They hold the secrets to the Rogue tree and utilize the power of Daggers using ancient rune magic and martial training. Discovering these monuments will give you boosts related to the Rogue and Sorcerer skill trees, and has unique bonuses for Dagger and Shadow Clone builds.

Pirates of the Neverseas
Monuments from the Pirates of the Neverseas are themed around pirates such as the heroes Captain Davey and Rosabelle. They mostly sail between Yort Kingdom and Droidland, as well as their own pirate villages on islands in the Neverseas. Discovering these monuments will give you boosts related to the Warlord and Alchemist skill trees, and has unique bonuses for Clan Ship and Gold Gun builds.
