Editing Paths

[[File:Paths.png|right|270px]]{{#setmainimage:Paths.png|quiet}}
'''Paths''', formally '''Paths of Power''', is a feature in [[Geometry Dash]] and [[Geometry Dash Lite]], being introduced in [[Update 2.2]]. It is accessed through the creator menu.

==Description==
A Path costs 25,000 Mana Orbs (prior to Update 2.201 it was 50,000 Mana Orbs) to unlock. Each Path is themed around a [[Collectibles#Shards|Shard]] type. Only one Path can be active at a time - progress is not granted towards inactive Paths. However, multiple Paths can be purchased and the active path can be changed at will. There are ten Paths in total. 

While a Path is active, all collected [[Collectibles#Stars|Stars]] and [[Collectibles#Moons|Moons]] increase its rank. For every 100 combined Stars and Moons collected, the path rank increases and a new [[Icon Kit]] reward is unlocked. An Icon Kit reward is also unlocked when first purchasing a Path. A Path can be fully completed in 10 ranks (1000 Stars/Moons), for a total of 10 cosmetic rewards. Additionally, completing a Path will reward a bonus Chest which can contain certain prizes of the following: 
*1 new icon
*1 new colour
*300 diamonds
*10 corresponding shards (If the player already has at least 100 of the corresponding shard, then 1000 mana orbs will be rewarded instead)
*1 [[Collectibles|key]] (except Path of Shadow)

==Trivia==
*Repeatedly attempting to unlock a path without sufficient mana orbs shows dialogue from the [[Shop|Shopkeeper]]:
**You cannot <font color="green">afford</font> that <font color="blue">path</font>.
**<font color="green">Collect</font> more <font color="blue">Mana Orbs</font>.
**You <font color="orange">do not</font> have enough <font color="blue">Mana Orbs</font>.
*250,000 Mana Orbs in total are required to unlock all Paths. A total of 10,000 combined stars and moons must be collected to complete all of them.
