Announcement Perils of Time [Walkthrough]

~ Event Guide ~​

Background

Before she died in Lor'Tac, Nefertari gave one of her minions, an old woman named Anabell Chester, who's dabbled in Andermagic, the knowledge how to perform a special ritual to travel back in time.Her mission: bury splinters of Nefertari's soul in different times areas. With the rise of the old Alliance and more powerful heroes fighting her son Balor, Nefertari wanted to make damn sure she was able to return from the realm of the dead in the Anderworld (not the World's Heart!). The splinters of her soul then still connect her to this world and provide her with an anchor to Dracania.

So Anabell Chester, who also knows Queen Antonia from childhood and is having an old grudge against her, plans to destabilize the Kingshill area while burying pieces of Nefertari's soul. She whipped up rituals in the village of Silverlode to open the portals necessary for the time travel. She also picked locations in the vicinity of Kingshill to easily find them again, no matter how much time had passed in between (and how bad her memory would still get).​

By opening those portals in time, Anabell Chester spread Time Dust over the world, infusing things and beings with it and tearing monster with her to aid her. These monsters are the first monsters to set foot on Dracania after the closing of the portals because all times in which Chester travels to lie before the story of DSO actually begins (with the exception of the Hagastove Grotto storyline, which takes place a couple of weeks after that).​

Fight against the Time Twins​

​

Time Twins will only appear alone; however, you will have to defeat multiple ones throughout the course of the event. The faster you defeat the Time Twin the better; because the longer you need the more monsters will spawn. That’s right, Time Twins are mean summoners and will try to set up a small army to defeat you. Next to that be prepared to be nimble; the Time Twins can conjure homing missiles! And if this was not enough, did we mention that all of the Time Twins have random monster enchantments?Defeat them and collect high stacks of Lost Time to progress in the event and get closer to the main villain: the Time Sorceress.​

Main Villain: The Time Sorceress

After completing all quests you will be able to access the Silver Mine and face the Time Sorceress. When you enter the mine your skills will be deactivated. This area is a safety area, where you can rest and be unharmed by the Time Sorceress. Once you leave this area the Time Sorceress will attack you immediately. Same as her evil copies, the Time Twins, the Sorceress is a skilled summoner and will not be alone for long. Defeat her and set an end to all the chaos once and for all!
​

​

If you are lucky you will be able to obtain Antonia’s Timeshifted Amulet from her. If not, don’t worry, once you defeated the Time Sorceress once, you will be able to visit her unlimited times, provided you have enough Time Dust to enter the Silver Mine.
