    Honestly, I'd just continue with the Story right now. I think Act 7 and onwards is really fun and it also has the best rewards for effort spent.

    But if you want a break from the Story, here are some other suggestions:

    Carina's Challenges. There are a ton of them and you're bound to find some that fit where you're at in the game right now. However, more and more will open up to you as you play the game. For example, the ones I was about to recommend - Lagacy's challenges - requires you to be a bit further into the Story than you currently are. However, even if you're not currently able to do any of them, it can be a good thing to at least keep an eye on them. If you want to make a run through Grandmaster's Gauntlet, for example, you might as well do it with the champions that make up one of the two Carina's Challenges that take place in there. The best of these challenges requires you to beat a specific content with a specific type of team, and often these teams are very well-suited to take on those challenges. That wasn't always the case - some of the early CCs were just horrible for the sake of being difficult - but I've enjoyed all of the more recent challenges in the last few years.

    I think the Eternity of Pain gauntlet is a good place to test your skills. You don't necessarily have to beat the gauntlet right now - that's a tall ask considering that you just became Thronebreaker - but don't be afraid to dip your toes into it. Just to get a feel for content that's one or two or seven steps up from what you might be used to. Back in the day, I used the Variant quests in a similar way. At first, I'd just die and die and die. However, as I came back and tried it over and over again as both my roster and my skills grew, I eventually started finding the rhythm and when I noticed that I could actually beat the first champion(s) without too much hassle, I decided to do a real push forward. Now, these Variant quests are terribly outdated by today's standards so I wouldn't recommend you pushing through them, but the principle still stands. It's good to have a piece of content to have your eyes on. Even if you can't beat the quest now, you'll eventually get there, and when you've gotten there, you'll start to be able to do even more types of endgame content.

    Good luck!
