Objective Types: Nodes, Cores, Portals & More
Black Zone objectives in Albion Online are timed open-world events that spawn valuable resources. Albion Online Objectives (AOO) tracks five categories: resource nodes, energy cores, vortexes, Ancient Lands Portals, and Dragons.
This page lists every type and rarity supported by the /add command.
Resource Nodes
Resource nodes spawn gatherable materials in the Black Zone. Each node type corresponds to a crafting resource. Nodes use tier-based rarities from 4.4 to 8.4 ; higher tiers yield rarer materials.
Fiber
Produces fiber for cloth crafting.
Hide
Produces hide for leather crafting.
Ore
Produces ore for metal crafting.
Wood
Produces wood for plank crafting.
Node Rarities
| Rarity | Description |
|---|---|
| 4.4 | Tier 4 enchantment 4 — uncommon |
| 5.4 | Tier 5 enchantment 4 — rare |
| 6.4 | Tier 6 enchantment 4 — very rare |
| 7.4 | Tier 7 enchantment 4 — extremely rare |
| 8.4 | Tier 8 enchantment 4 — legendary |

Core
Powerful objectives that provide Fame and Silver rewards.
Vortexes
Vortexes are open-world objectives that offer rewards similar to cores, with their own spawn patterns. They use the same color-based rarities: Green Blue Purple Gold .
Vortex
Open-world objectives with unique spawn patterns and valuable rewards.
Ancient Lands Portals
Ancient Lands Portals are timed portals that come in three sizes instead of a rarity: Small Medium Large . The size is picked in the rarity field of /add and determines the in-game group capacity.
Ancient Lands Portal
Timed portals in three sizes; the size sets the group capacity.
Portal Sizes
| Size | Group capacity |
|---|---|
| Small | 1–5 players |
| Medium | 5–7 players |
| Large | 15–20 players |
See the Ancient Lands Portals & Dragon attacks guide for time limits per size and reporting details.
Dragons
Dragon attacks are the only objective type with no rarity at all: the attack’s tier follows the tier of the map it spawns on. They strike the Black Zone and the Royal Continent alike. When reporting one with /add, leave the rarity field empty; the bot rejects a Dragon report that carries a rarity.
Dragon
Dragon attacks have no rarity; report them with the rarity field left empty.
