As the season changes, the Harvest Festival Hall will soon depart, staying available until Tuesday, November 5.

To get to Harvest Festival Hall, travel to Eldritch Academy from Pora Elinu or speak to Ellonia [Halloween Guide], found next to the pumpkin decorations in any town.

Once inside Eldritch Academy, speak to Titiana to enter the Hall, then speak to the witch Serena to begin, and use the cannons to repel waves of monsters intent on stealing every last bit of candy they can get their grubby paws on.

Serena rewards you with Halloween Candy for your efforts, and you can trade your Halloween Candy in to Ellonia [Halloween Guide] in most towns. Select “Accessories” to see what's offered in the Halloween Candy Shop and exchange your candies for some fantastic special items!

The Krafton development team is conducting a survey. This is your chance to provide us with feedback on the latest TERA update—Aerial Island—as well as your thoughts on some of TERA's core features. Click here to get started.


Completing Vanguard Requests awards you with increased gold and reputation, starting Tuesday, October 29 at 3 a.m. PDT, and continuing until Tuesday, November 5 at 3 a.m. PDT.


Starting Friday, November 1 at 3 a.m. PDT, and continuing until Monday, November 4, you’ll earn increased Bellicarium Credits from Corsairs' Stronghold, Shore Hold, and Gridiron.


Continuing until Tuesday, November 5—keep an eye peeled for Gourdo in most of TERA’s cities and major villages. For all the details, check out this news post.


Harvest Festival Hall remains available until Thursday, November 5.

Available for a very limited time starting Tuesday, October 29, the 2019 Halloween Critter Crate offers a never before seen mount and pet, as well as other various Halloween themed Pets.

This specialty Halloween crate will only be available for purchase until 10 a.m. PDT on Tuesday, November 5.

Gourdo has returned to TERA for Halloween! You’ll need to work together to take him down…but the rewards will be well worth the effort!

This Halloween season—starting Tuesday, October 22 and continuing until Tuesday, November 5—keep an eye peeled for Gourdo in most of TERA’s cities and major villages, such as Crescentia, Scythera Fae, and so on (but not in Velika or on Exodor).

During the event, Gourdo will appear on weekdays from 4 p.m. PDT until 9 p.m. PDT, and from noon to midnight on Saturdays and Sundays.

Once you spot him, it’s “smashing pumpkins” time! If your group takes him out, you’ll receive lots of awesome consumables, possibly including Squash Pie, Halloween-themed footsteps, or up to five Gourdo’s Moongourds!

Check out the possible rewards:

• Squash Pie (100% HP)
  
• Castanica Midnight Oil (+50% craft speed for 1 hour)
  
• Ice Effect (consumable boost and character effect, not tradeable)
  
• Fire Effect consumable boost and character effect, not tradeable)
  
• Strongbox Key
  
• [Event] Gourdo’s Moongourd ×2
  
• [Event] Gourdo’s Moongourd ×5
  
• Superior Noctenium Elixir
  
• 10% Item XP Boost (2-hour)
  
• Footsteps: Frightsteps

What could be easier? But here’s a curveball: There are also fake Gourdos! These phony pumpkinheads are invulnerable, and so no matter how much you beat them, they’ll never fall…and never drop any rewards. So even if you can take out a true Gourdo all by yourself, wailing on a Fake Gourdo will only make it angry.

If you manage to kill a real Gourdo and you pick up a Gourdo’s Moongourd, you’re in luck! Each day during the event, you’ll receive an [Event] Gourdo’s Campfire in your Parcel Post. Combine that with 100 Gourdo’s Moongourds to make a special Halloween Moongourd Pie—which you can then bust open to receive even more amazing rewards, such as autumn-themed Footsteps, a Moon pet, Skill Advancement Scrolls, Legacy Essences, or other items! And if you find yourself running out of event campfires, you can purchase more from the TERA Store.

Ready to get Gourdo? Then get going! He’s only around until November 5!

This week’s highlights include the trickiest of treaters: Gourdo! Plus bonuses for Vanguard Requests, weekend dungeons highlights, new companions and more.

Gourdo can no longer be contained, and starting Tuesday, October 22, his madness shall be unleashed upon the world!
