Preview - Lovecrafting 2025!
Everyone could use a hug now and then, except the legendary Hugthulu and Hugthulu Prime. They're back, but it's up to you if you'll accept their deadly embrace.
Getting Started
Speak to Cupid in Windmoore to learn more about the Lovecrafting Event and the huggable threat that Arlor faces. He'll direct you to the portal where you can spend energy to enter the event zone.
Make your way through the map defeating enemies and the Merfkin mini-boss to collect L, O, V, and E candy letters. These can be crafted into event tokens, or a Love Letter to summon the second boss, Hugthulu Prime (more on him in a second).
Then, get ready for a fight! Hugthulu awaits.
Head back to Windmoore to chat with Remmi Amor for quests to gain extra tokens. She has 3 quests (2 daily) to complete.
Timeline
This two-week event will begin on Thursday, February 6th, and run through Thursday, February 20th, with a 3 day cooldown.
