HellTide Times and Locations
Helltides Spawn in specific locations all over the World Map. At this time, Helltides will Spawn every 2 hours and 15 minutes and last for 1 hour. Every Region has dedicated Zones where the Helltide will spawn. The zone that the Helltide spawns in will rotate with each spawn. Below is a map displaying where the Helltide spawns in each Region.

Aberrant Cinders
While Adventuring through HellTide Zones, you’ll come across Aberrant Cinders. Aberrant Cinders are the specific currency found in Helltides, used to open up special Treasure Chests called Tortured Gifts. Aberrant Cinders can be found by killing enemies, opening a chest in the Helltide zone, and Completing World Events.
