The event
New Menu Item: There’s a new menu item at the bottom of the expedition overview section that will show you if the event has started. Click it to learn more.
Four Waves of Monsters: The event consists of four waves, each one in a different place. You’ll need to defeat these waves, one after the other.
Progress Together: All players work together towards the server’s overall progress. After you defeat every opponent in a wave, the next wave will be released. Two conditions apply:
Each waves lasts at least 4 days.
All enemies in a wave must be defeated before the next begins.
- Example: If a wave is defeated before the minimum time is up, the next wave will only start once that time has elapsed. If it takes longer to defeat it, the next wave will begin immediately afterwards.
Powerful Boss: The final wave has a powerful event boss. If this boss is defeated, extra strong bonuses will be activated for the whole server. Time Limit: You’ll have a limited amount of time to defeat all the enemies and the boss.
Event Points
Event Points: You’ll have 16 event points to use in your battle against the event monsters.
Restoring Points: Your event points will refill each day at midnight server time.
Using Points: There is no cooldown between attacks. You can keep attacking until you run out of event points. Depending on the battle, it may take around 3 seconds until you can start the next encounter.
Using Rubies: You can refill your event points by spending 5 Rubies. Each purchase increases the cost by 5 Rubies for every subsequent top-up. The price increase applies until the Participation Boost has expired (max. 30 minutes), after which time the cost is reset to 5 Rubies.
Please Note: Event points are not refilled upon levelling up.
Participation Boost/EXP Buff
What the Buff Offers
- During the event, you receive a stackable EXP bonus with each encounter (whether it ends in victory or defeat).
- This bonus increases the experience you receive by +5% per stack.
- The buff is only triggered by event location encounters and only applies there.
- The bonus applies to the basic EXP of the respective encounter.
Buff Duration & Extension
- The buff lasts for 30 minutes.
- Each encounter resets the timer to 30 minutes and increases the number of stacks by +1.
- As soon as 30 minutes have expired, the buff automatically disappears.
- Once the buff ends, the increasing Ruby price for refilling event points is reset to 5 Rubies.
- The maximum number in the stack is 60.
Monster Waves
These are the waves of monsters you’ll need to defeat. For each victory you’ll be rewarded with some gold, experience, and honour.
- Wave 1: Cult of the Depths
- Wave 2: The Defiled Exiles
- Wave 3: The Restless Dead
- Wave 4: Lord Maldark, Tormentor of Souls
Rewards
Milestone Rewards
- Each event monster you defeat will earn you a point. You’ll need these points in order to meet milestones that unlock various rewards in succession.
- Each wave has its own segment with a certain number of achievable milestones. Collect points from combat to be able to collect the rewards one after the other. The rewards can only be obtained while the respective segment is active. So, for example, as soon as segment 2 begins, rewards can no longer be collected from segment 1.
Costume: Defender of the Empire
- You can earn set pieces for the brand-new Defender of the Empire costume from the milestone rewards.
- Once acquired, you can wear the costume at any time during the event, as well as for 14 days after the event has ended (until midnight local server time on the 15th day of wearing it). If you were unable to participate in the whole event and missed out on a set item as a result, you will automatically receive a set item as a gift at the end.
- To activate the costume you will need at least two set items.
The costume provides the following bonuses:
- 2 pieces: 30% reduced waiting time for quests and expeditions
- 3 pieces: 100% faster regeneration of expedition points
- 4 pieces: 20% more experience on expeditions, dungeons, Underworld and other events (excluding Rise of the Forgotten)
- 5 pieces: +3% to all basic stats
Wave Rewards
Server-wide reward buffs can be earned for defeating waves. These will be activated after the end of the event:
- Wave 1: -10% required forging materials (duration: 7 days)
- Wave 2: +20% Gold from expeditions and dungeons (duration: 7 days)
- Wave 3: +30% experience from expeditions and dungeons (duration: 7 days)
- Wave 4: -15% training costs. Once all four waves have been completed, the duration of all buffs increases to 10 days.
