Halloween Event

Halloween Event

The Halloween Event begins with a spooky landscape change, festively decorated cities
and a mysterious dungeon opening to be found in the Ghostland east of Thoris.

   

Even some creatures change their appearance under the influence of evil forces!

---

The 2022 event will begin on October 28th and last until November 18th.
During this time you can obtain special rewards that are only available throughout the event.

Everyone can earn rewards by killing creatures to earn Halloween Points which can be exchanged for Halloween Coins.

The number of points you earn when looting and your total points are visible at the bottom of your screen and in the server log.
The points can be exchanged for coins with Grim and used to buy items from him.
He is located in the Ghostland west of Thoris here.
(or here on Novus.)

The Vampire Outfit base can be purchased from Grim for 3000 Halloween Coins, while the addons can only be bought once the player has faced Stage 2 of the event and the Face of Decay (you need to enter the boss event arena).
The outfit's addons, the shoulderpads and helmet/hood, can be purchased in that order from Vlad for 10 Stuffed Bags of Halloween Coins each AND a Golden Pumpkin for the second addon!

The Skeleton Warlord Outfit can be obtained by using a Golden Skull on your character to obtain the base outfit, while the addons can only be bought once the player has faced Stage 2 of the event and the Face of Decay (you need to enter the event boss arena).
The outfit's addons, the cloak/helmet and hammer, can be purchased in either order from Grim for 10 Stuffed Bags of Halloween Coins each!

Along with other halloween-themed decorations, candy pumpkins will appear in and around all major cities, when used they will give Lollipops, Chocolate Cookies, Candy or Halloween Coins!

Wanna scare your friends? Or maybe you just want to go trick or treating but can't afford a costume?? Find yourself a Hallows Witch! They can be found in the Ghostland as well as around cities. They change your outfit to one of a number of undead/spooky creatures for about 2 hours.

Also take a look at the Medivia Store in-game and check out the
limited-time Halloween selection available only during the event!

The Face of Decay

---

Halloween time is upon us and each year the dangerous creature named the Face of Decay rises from the dead. Being immortal, he cannot be killed and can only be locked away in the afterlife for a single year. The coffin that he is buried in deep below the ghostlands will always magically unlock eventually because of a curse that was put on it by Necromantica when the Face of Decay was created by the lich king Daevok.
The coffin will be unlocked on the 31st of October and the event will commence at different times on different servers, depending on whether they're NA or EU hosted.
All year undead creatures have been working on a wicked tool for their master to use. A magical Jade Crystal. These instruments of chaos are known for their nasty and unpredictable magic, thus most magicians are too afraid to create, let alone use them.

Citizens of Medivia, the Face of Decay will once again return and try to demolish the world as you know it. Forget your differences and unite in order to lock him away so Medivia can live to see another year.

Grim has already announced that he will reward those brave enough to defend their land. However, those too afraid will have to go home empty-handed.
Those who take part in the killing of the boss (you need to enter the boss event arena) will gain the ability to purchase addons for the Vampire Outfit and Skeleton Warlord Outfit.

---

The event begins with server messages speaking of ominous and evil presence around the major cities of Medivia.

• The very first wave summons Bats all over the cities, the following few waves will spawn lesser undead creatures until eventually about 15-20 minutes later massive portals appear summoning literally hundreds of undead creatures in each city.
  The free account cities face creatures such as Revenants, Ghouls, Crypt Shamblers, Watchers etc.; while the premium cities will even face such powerful creatures as Liches, Banshees, Wights, Skull Reapers, Wraiths and LOTS of them! Even the necromancer boss Goshnir and unique event bosses Rowena Froggerly and Bloody Mary may appear!
• Once the portals spawn, they will keep summoning waves forever unless they are located and destroyed, it takes a lot of firepower as the portals seem to have a few hundred thousand hitpoints.
  
  
  
  
• Once all the portals are destroyed these messages will appear:
  "All portals are destroyed but bats have been spotted in Lucindel, Arak and Osaris! Face of Decay is still running wild! Quickly search for him and his Jade Crystal to stop this madness!"
  "The Jade Crystal has been found somewhere near Holdangraff! Face of Decay fled but managed to summon one last portal to retain the crystal from being destroyed."
• This last portal (located here: ) will be the most difficult, it has more hitpoints than the others and it will summon, along with the creatures the first portals summoned: Wraiths, Abominations, Undead Titans and even Undead Dragons (only 1 or a few of each at a time). Halloween bosses Bloody Mary and Rowena Froggerly also spawn with the portal.
• Once the last portal is destroyed, you will be able to damage the Jade Crystal located slightly north of where the portal was, just shoot and destroy it.
  
  
  
  
• The Face of Decay arena teleporter will appear in the ghostlands here, he will summon many Pumpkin Summoners who will summon even more Pumpkin Warriors. The only approach to killing this creature seems to be to completely surround it with 200+ level blockers (the higher the better obviously) with healers and then shoot until it's dead (a few million hitpoints).
  "Face of Decay has fled into the afterlife for this year's Halloween. Grim has set up a chest in the ghost land to reward those brave enough to fight this horror off."
  • The arena is non-PVP but supplies are NOT infinite and there is a death penalty when dying inside.
• A massive chest will appear in the Ghostlands west of Thoris near Grim's location. Each participant will receive 2-3 rewards from the list below based on participation points. Participants will now also be able to purchase the Vampire Outfit and Skeleton Warlord Outfit addons from Grim and Vlad (you need to have entered the boss event arena).
  
  

Face of Decay Reward List

---

Once the Face of Decay is defeated, each participant will be able to open the massive chest in the Ghostlands, however, your reward will not depend on your level, 
but on the amount of participation points you have earned (once you open the chest, you will be able to see how many points you collected in your Server Log window).
Participation points are granted to players for their help in clearing the waves, portals and bosses.

• NOTE: Each player will receive 1-2 items from Grim's offer (or a Golden Pumpkin) and 1-3 unique reward items, this list will NOT include the items from Grim's offer, only notable rewards!
