Outside of these lanes are a series of tunnels, alleyways, and buildings that sometimes contain [[Golden Statue]]s, crates, and neutral [[Denizen]]s. In each lane, a [[Ziplines|Zipline]] extends from both bases directly overhead with each having the color of the corresponding lane. | ||
Across the map in various locations players can find Golden Statues and destructible boxes. While the boxes have a 40% chance to drop [[souls]], Golden Statues have a chance to drop permanent stat bonuses, such as Spirit Power or Weapon Damage. They spawn 2 minutes into the game and will respawn 2 minutes after being destroyed. | Across the map in various locations, players can find Golden Statues and destructible boxes.

Outside of the lanes is an area of the map called the jungle, which is home to the neutral [[Denizen]] camps. Denizens are alien-like entities that appear in groups and will attack when provoked. They come in three different sizes: small, medium and large, and drop souls the larger they are. Being neutral units, both teams can attack the same denizen camps, and they will be aggressive to their attackers no matter which team they are on. | Outside of the lanes is an area of the map called the jungle, which is home to the neutral [[Denizen]] camps.
