~Event Guide~​

​

Quick Overview

Required level:	19-100
Duration:	19th of February 12:00 CEST – 25th of February 23:59 CEST

Event summary:
Bigger, Meaner and dead: Sargon is back! The Terrible returned and it needs heroes to stop his subordinates and foil his plans.

The Terrible is BACK!

• Collect Coffee Beans from worthy opponents everywhere in Dracania
• Enter Stillwater Bay at Night and collect Shadow Portal Fragments by destroying the Shadow Portals in the map to obtain Shadow Portals, leading you to Sargon’s Shadowfort
• Collect Light Essences to step against Sargon and some of his minions.

​

Stillwater Bay at Night:
Beach party? At night? Sounds like a lot of fun…or not!

This is the first event map, it requires 10 Coffee Beans to enter. Coffee Beans can drop from worthy monsters.

Monsters in Stillwater Bay at night can also drop Shadows, the event progress, Light Essences, as well as Shadow Portal Fragments.

These are needed to complete the repeatable quest “Sneak through the Portal 1/1” provided by Jon Sunlair. This quest is granting you with a Shadow Portal that will lead you to Sargon’s Shadowfort.

​

Sargon’s Shadowfort:
Some heroes already had the honor of meeting the King of the Shadows in his prime; the others meet him for the first time. Whatever the conditions, Sargon will treat everyone equally cruel. Don’t worry!

This is the main event map, leading to Sargon’s Throne Room. Monsters in this map can drop Shadows, the event progress, as well as general monster loot.

​

Look for the three Shadow Altars in the map. Interact with all of them and defeat Sargon’s Gatekeepers.

Face the Soul Collector Sentinel (requires Light Essences to fight against it, same as the other Soul Collector monsters), that stays between you and the path to the King of Shadows!
Defeating him will unlock the door on top of the map, leading to Sargon’s Throne Room, where the real challenge awaits you!

​

​

Sargon’s Throne Room:
What makes a good villain? Good persistence! Even in death, Sargon never gives up on his dream of subjugating Dracania!

This is the Boss map of the event, where Sargon the Terrible is waiting for you. The Boss can drop Shadows, the new Shadow Reign Set Items and even the new Sargon Costume, to look as terrifying as Sargon himself! The Boss requires Light Essences to fight against him and his evil minions.

​

To fight against Sargon’s new reincarnation, you need to finish the Chapter 1 – A Dark Heritage and complete the quest “The First Ones” and “Shadow Master”! Otherwise, you will arrive in another instance than for example your group members that completed the quests.
