Halloween is just around the corner and as we approach this spooky occasion, the monsters in Arborea are going completely crazy! Perhaps they're under the evil influence of the spirit world. Worshipers of Fire are besieging the world's icy regions, the argons are starting a new invasion of Seeliewood, and the dwellers of Bathysmal Rise want to flood the deserts with cold waters.


Put an end to the monsters' crazy ambitions for amazing rewards!



Dwellers of Bathysmal Rise
These mighty foes rise from the Bathysmal depths, bringing great floods to areas otherwise completely cut off from water. Will the deserts of the Sienna Canyon soak up the masses of water, or will it sink into the depths of the ocean?



Worshipers of Fire
The adepts of fire, led by Darumag himself, defy the eternal ice of Frost Reach. With their flaming rage, they want to plunge the entire world into an inferno – can you stop them?



Invasion of the Argons
The veil between the worlds is torn and argons are streaming forth to exploit this weakness! In a first brutal step, they turn on the mellow Seeliewood. Will their attack be successful this time?



Servants of Death
Around Halloween, the corrupt magic of Harrowhold oozes through the ruined portal and transforms the dream of the gods: fearsome skeletons arise from this unholy energy to reap among the living.

• 11:30 PM – 11:59 PM: Servants of Death [Granarkus]

The average opponent from the three factions – fire, water, and argon – can withstand 100 hits each and drops 1 Dreamer's Token upon death. However, they are not easy to repel as they keep on reappearing within the given time.

• Invasion of the Argons
  
  • Zomgul Gatherer
    
  • Vieldras
• Worshipers of Fire
  
  • Elite Fanatical Maligos
    
  • Elite Pyrovore
• Bathysmal Rise Opponents
  
  • Elite Bathysmal Cnidaria
    
  • Elite Bathysmal Jinn

The boss monsters of these three invasions can each withstand 5000 hits and send participating players 10 Dreamer's Tokens by parcel post. You will find 5 of each of these opponents per specified period:

• Invasion of the Argons
  
  • Akalath Fighter
• Worshipers of Fire
  
  • Nightmare Darumag
• Bathysmal Rise Opponents
  
  • Nightmare Tantibus

The Servants of Death are terrifying creatures: they can withstand a total of 10,000 hits. Each player has a chance of up to 50 Dreamer's Tokens per hit! There are also 5 of these per corresponding period to find and defeat:

• Servants of Death
  
  • Lament Warrior

All monsters can appear in all channels of each zone. Lament Warrior is especially dangerous, so it is best not to attack without support from your friends.

Dreamer's Token
The Dreamer's Tokens earned during the event can primarily be exchanged for designs and materials for the crafting of tier IV etchings – a great opportunity as these are usually very hard to come by!
Designs for the crafting of tier IV etchings:

• Weapons
  
• Armor
  
• Hands
  
• Feet
  
• Belts
  
• Earrings
  
• Rings
  
• Necklaces

Designs for the crafting of materials required for tier IV etchings:

• Harmonious Imbalance
  
• Lucid Titan's Fire
  
• Lucid Titan's Peace
  
• Lucid Titan's Earth
  
• Lucid Titan's Storm

You can also exchange your tokens for a Superior Etchings Box IV for the crafting of tier IV etchings, or for Promises of the Damne



I’ve found a target. What now?
Once you've tracked down a boss, it's advisable to contact your guild or inform other players via the global chat. They can withstand several thousand blows!
Once you’ve killed a boss, all players involved will receive a reward via Parcel Post. In order to be eligible for the loot via mail, please ensure that:

• You are in the same channel as the boss
  
• You have attacked the boss
  
• You are close enough to see/interact with the boss
  
• You have attacked the boss again after dying / teleporting to the boss again

Is there anything else I need to know?
The event is for level 65 players, and can deal damage. Please be sure to use a crystalbind upon partaking, as dying on these will potentially break crystals in your equipment.


Wishing you eerie Halloween nights!

Do you want a treat? Then give the pumpkin head and his Halloween skeletons some tricks and protect the Halloween Candy Basket!

Head to the witch detective Titania at the Eldritch Academy in Pora Elinu and have her teleport you to the Harvest Festival Hall. You can fight either on your own or in a group of up to three adventurers.



Use the Halloween Cannon to overcome the waves of monsters. You will receive points for every monster that has been defeated before reaching the Halloween Candy Basket. If one gets through, you will have points deducted. A bigger deduction looms should the monsters make it back to their starting point. The higher your point score, the more Halloween Candy you'll receive in the post. If you fight in a group, the points are counted as a total value taken from all group members.

Ranking - Points - Halloween Candy
Rank 1 - 5,000 - 6
Rank 2 - 3,000 - 5
Rank 3 - 1,000 - 4
Rank 4 - 300 - 3
Rank 5 - 0 - 2


Note: Without teammates you will only be able to cover a limited area with the cannon, greatly increasing the difficulty of the event.
Exchange your Halloween Candy with Ellonia at the Plaza of the Huntress in Velika for the Promise of the Damned!

The Halloween dungeon can be played five times a day between the 24th October (10:00) and the 7th November 2017 (05:00).
Get on your way to the Festival Hall and fill your pockets with tasty Halloween Candy!
