Halloween 2021 Event Guide
Arlor Halloween 2021 | Day of the Undead
Could it be a Halloween curse, or some other nefarious plot at work? We're not sure, but Halloween 2021 is here and Necropolis is brimming with a terrifying scourge of undead. It's up to you to stop it! Explore the new Haunted Mansion zone and defeat the Oligarch for handsome rewards like vanities and other goodies.
This event begins Thursday, October 14th, at approximately 1:30 PM CST. It will run for three (3) spooky weeks, with a 3 day cooldown.
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.
Quests:
Once in Necropolis you will find a number of NPCs you can interact with:
You will also find the portal to the Event Zone. This requires energy to enter:
Event Zone:
Once inside you are prompted to purchase a Bane Item that will vastly help in this area. Past years' Bane Item will work here too:
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 the haunted Oligarch's Mansion.
If you remember Boogie, the Oligarch has a similar entrance requirement. You don't just waltz into his home empty handed. You must bring one 2021 Necropolis Candy Bag if you want the chance to explore his hallowed halls.
Collect the Candy Bars that drop from mobs all around Arlor and craft them into Candy bags to open the way to the Oligarch's Mansion.
Oligarch's Mansion
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.
Defeat The Oligarch, and you'll receive The Oligarch's Bag 2021, a special event chest that has a chance to drop a whole slew of Halloween vanities. Opening this bag gives you a chance to loot:
