Howdy folks, the hits keep rolling. Here is what we have on tap for tomorrow:

New System: Item Awakening

You should be familiar with this new system going in, if not then tap here for the full guide.

New Event: Awakening Kickoff

To fully expose you to the Item Awakening system, we are running an event starting tomorrow.

This is an Energy and Leaderboard Event.

Normal farming will occasionally cause a class-specific portal to appear.



These portals correspond to the six different weapon types:

- Sword and Shield (Warriors)
- Hammers (Warriors)
- Bows (Rogue)
- Daggers (Rogue)
- Wands (Sorcerers)
- Guns (Sorcerers)

You can only enter a portal if you are of appropriate class (ie only Sorcerers can enter Wand and Gun portals)



Once inside, you will face a demon of that particular weapon type.

Please note these are solo instances, so once you are in you will face the demon BY YOURSELF.

On defeat, this demon will drop a hidden power shard of that particular weapon type.

This demon is categorized as a boss, and double boss drop elixirs will work on them.



Collect and craft these into Awakening Gems and Elite Awakening Gems to help you roll and reroll with the new awakening system.

It requires one of each weapon type piece (6 in total) to craft an Awakening Gem. It requires 20 of each (120 total) to craft an Elite Awakening Gem.

This means you will have to trade different types among each other.



This leaderboard will be special, and can be only climbed by crafting Awakening Gems. Awakening Gems give you 1 leaderboard point, Elite Awakening Gems give you 20 leaderboard points.

Leaderboard winners will receive:

• Top 10 (of each class)
o Vanity Banner for Event
o 10 Empowered Reawakening Gems (50 Plat value, Tradeable, Stashable)
o 10 Reawakening Gems (Tradeable, Stashable)
o 100 Ankh Kit

• Top 25 (of each class)
o Vanity Banner for Event
o 5 Empowered Reawakening Gem (25 Plat value, Tradeable, Stashable)
o 5 Reawakening Gems (Tradeable, Stashable)
o 50 Ankh Kit

• Top 100 (of each class)
o Vanity Banner for Event
o 5 Reawakening Gems (Tradeable, Stashable)
o 25 Ankh Kit
