Here's the thing about zombies...they tend to return. And they've done just that this year. Necropolis is once more overrun with terrifying undead and it's up to you to stop it! Don't forget to visit Arlor's best haunted houses: Boogie's Mansion and the Oligarch's Mansion for more tricks and treats!
This event begins Thursday, October 17th, at approximately 1:30 PM CST. It will run for three (3) spooktacular weeks, with a 3-day cooldown.
What's New
In addition to the event's new vanities, pets, etc...Keep an eye out for NEW Level 86 Arcane Armor and Helmet items in Locked Crates
Note: the new Blood Star Arcane Armor and Helmet will be part of a Level 86 Arcane 3-Piece Set that includes an additional item that will be released in future events!
How it Works
The Halloween Event is energy-based. Spend energy points to enter the boss zone, defeat Necropolis monsters to progress through the event tiers, and earn tokens to redeem for the Token Vendor's stash of Halloween goodies. Tiers and leaderboards will reset each week with a fresh opportunity to climb and collect new rewards.
You can get to the Necropolis either from the main map or by talking to the Necropolis Gatekeeper.

Event Zone:
Once inside you are prompted to purchase a Bane Item that will vastly help in this area. Note: This item will expire at the end of the event.

Make your way through, cutting down enemies until you reach a final boss battle:

On occasion, defeating this boss will open a separate portal to one of two special Halloween event zones: Boogie's Mansion or the Oligarch's Mansion.

You must bring one 2024 Necropolis Candy Bag if you want the chance to visit these haunted houses.
Collect the Candy Bars that drop from mobs all around Arlor and craft them into Candy bags to open the way to the Boogie or the Oligarch's Mansion.
Oligarch's Mansion
Attachment 271820
The Oligarch is anything but hospitable. To reach him you'll have to wander the halls of his opulent mansion, avoiding traps that will damage, slow, and stun you, all while cutting down the zombie hoard that's taken up residence inside.
Attachment 271818
Defeat The Oligarch, and you'll receive the Oligarch's Bag 2024, defeat him with the farmer's elixir active and you'll receive the Oligarch's Haunted Bag 2024, a special event chest that has a chance to drop a whole slew of Halloween goodies. (List Below)
Boogie's Mansion
Boogie's Mansion ends on the Dance Floor, where you will do battle with Arlor's coolest ghost!
