Effect[]
+1 to starting zones available after Ascension.
If you buy Iris, you start with Zone 1 and 2 unlocked after ascending, every level put into Iris will push that one farther down.
Leveling Iris, Ancient of Vision[]
The cost of leveling up Iris is: at level 1, your current Ancient Summoning cost (which seems to follow no real equation but grows exponentially, see Ancients for prices), and then costs n1.5 souls to level up, n being equal to the next level.
There is no maximum level for this ancient.
| Lvl | Cost | Floors |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +1 | |
| 2 | 3 | +2 |
| 3 | 5 | +3 |
| 4 | 8 | +4 |
| 5 | 11 | +5 |
| n | n1.5 | +n |
All 
Hero Souls costs are rounded to the nearest whole number.
Trivia[]
- The name Iris refers to the Iris layer of the eye that dilates based on light in the environment and gives the eye its color.
- The color of the Ancient may also reflect Iris, the ancient Greek personification of the rainbow and messenger of the gods.
- Its wings could be based off of the fact that it lets you 'fly over your early zones'.
- This Ancient, along with
Juggernaut, was introduced in patch 0.15.
