Preview - Happy Halloween 2022! It's time to return to the Necropolis!
Here's the thing about zombies...they tend to come back. 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 pay a visit to Arlor's best haunted houses: Boogie's Mansion and the Oligarch's mansion for more tricks, and more treats!
This event begins Thursday, October 13th, at approximately 1:30 PM CST. It will run for three (3) spooky weeks, with a 3 day cooldown.
What's New
The Halloween Event this year will run in 3 rounds of 1 week each, meaning that leaderboards and event tiers will grant rewards each week, then reset. That means 3 chances to climb to the top of the global leaderboards or your personal tiers (point thresholds have been adjusted accordingly)!
Additionally, the event Locked Crate contents will change each week, so make sure to keep an eye out for when your favorite rewards will appear.
Check the sections below to learn more.
How it Works
The Halloween Event is an energy-based event. Spend energy points to enter the boss zone and defeat Necropolis monsters to progress through the event tiers and earn tokens to redeem for the Token Vendor's stash of Halloween goodies.
You can get to Necropolis either from the main map or by talking to the Necropolis Gatekeeper.
