Ursoth's Assault 2023! Return to Elondria!

[Cinco]

It's time! Elondria needs your aid!

Ursoth is back and his portal to assault Arlor from his native realm of Elondria is open once again. An Orc Blood shaman named Bloodgrub discovered one of Ursoth's portals but was soundly defeated before she could prevail. Bloodgrub, having dealt in dark magic her whole life, has discovered a new way to grow in power, and she is spreading her corruption throughout Arlor. Now the Elondrian Rangers need your help. Help them fight off Bloodgrub's corruption and return Elondria to its natural splendor!

NEW: Ursoth's assault will take place in two 1-week phases, with a reset in leaderboards and new tier and LB rewards to collect each week.

Ursoth's Assault will run for 2 weeks, starting on Thursday, 3/9/2023 ~1:30 PM CT and ending on Thursday, 3/23/2023 at 1:30pm CDT with a 3 day cooldown.

How to Play

It begins by talking to an Elondrian Ambassador in most major cities. You can also go to Elondria via the Main Map.



Head to the Event Hub for tons of Quests:



Energy



Energy is used to enter the portal to fight Ursoth's Assault bosses. One energy point will refill automatically every 8 hours. Refill your energy faster by collecting energy essences from monsters all around Arlor and crafting them into energy kits. Rarely, bosses will drop an entire energy point to fill one energy slot. Or, purchase Energy Kits from other players via the Consignment Shop for gold. You may also purchase energy for platinum at the Elondria token vendor or as you enter the portal in town.

Bosses

Enter the portal in Elondria to visit the event boss zone to defeat the newly corrupted bosses and earn loot and tokens to trade for limited edition items and vanities. There are 5 bosses to fight in Ursoth's Assault. Harder bosses may appear at higher tiers and grant more rewards and tokens. Defeat bosses to earn points and progress through the tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum to fight:

+ Herond the Forest Sprite
+ Europhex the Basilisk
+ Helena, Lady of the Forest
+ The Great Troll Ursoth

Then, there's: Bloodgrub.



Bloodgrub's Altar becomes active after you have killed one of the corrupted bosses in the Event Zone. Using Blood Grub's Doll will open a portal to BloodGrub's Fane, granting temporary access to everyone in the immediate vicinity. This portal will always take you to Bloodgrub.

Bloodgrub's Doll is composed of components from the event and the main world.

@Cinco Will lock zodias crates drop from event zone ?

I don't think they should because there are already too many in game from past events , will just create excess.

[Observing]

The artists did a good job, are the lb rewards tradeable ?

[Aeri]

can we get a picture of top 25 wings?

[AapelsapXD]

i feel like this was a huge step down compared to 2022 in terms of quality... everything, from badges, lb, to auras. last year they had day/night blossom auras, a super nice tree lb set, and clean day/night badges. personally nothing im interested in at all here, the first aura is okay but mediocre at best, the other 2 auras are very bland and boring

[Switchback]

Drops will be as usual i assume so nothing to get too hyped about, unless you want to waste money.

[papas]

Ppl might get confused. In vendor there are recipies for crafting deluxe auras. U forgot add "recipe"
