Hello Realmers!
Oryx is no stranger to this especially spooky time of year. With a little help from Skuld, the realm has been overrun by haunted terrors! But those daring enough to take on these freakish versions of familiar foes may find it worth their while, as a whole host of new Halloween items have made their way into the realm as well!
Haunted Cemetery
The Haunted Cemetery dungeon has been reworked just in time for the Halloween season! You can read a full list of changes here.
This year we will ask you to gather three types of tokens: Bone Sigil, Cursed Coin and Soul Spark. Tokens are spread in Realms and Dungeons. When you gather enough of them you will be able to exchange them for rewards: Demon Pumpkin, Witch’s Skull, one of the reskin UT and skins. Below you will find drop locations and quests:
Drop Location | Token Name | Guaranteed? |
---|---|---|
Undead Lair | Cursed Coin x1 | Yes |
Manor of the Immortals | Cursed Coin x2 | Yes |
Parasite Chambers | Cursed Coin x2 | Yes |
Pumpkin Shrine | Cursed Coin x5 | Yes |
Zombie Horde | Cursed Coin x5 | Yes |
Calcium God | Cursed Coin x5 | Yes |
Abyss of Demons | Soul Spark x1 | Yes |
Davy Jones’ Locker | Soul Spark x2 | Yes |
Cursed Library | Soul Spark x2 | Yes |
Grand Sphinx | Soul Spark x5 | Yes |
Ghost Ship | Soul Spark x5 | Yes |
Hermit | Soul Spark x8 | Yes |
Shatters | Bone Sigil x2 | Yes |
Wine Cellar | Bone Sigil x5 | Yes |
Additionally, Totalia will have a small chance of dropping Cursed Coin x1 and Soul Spark x1 and one of the Encounters that drop tokens will spawn once per Realm after all Ghost Kings are defeated.

-
Bug Fixes:
* Fixed a bug where teleportation to Oryx’s Castle would cause desync issues.
Quests:
Quest Name | Quest Requirement | Reward/s | Quest Type |

Mysterious Curse | Soul Spark x50 + Cursed Coin x50 | Demon Pumpkin OR Witch’s Skull | Daily |

Rogue ST Rework
The current ST has been removed from dropping from Haunted Cemetery and has been replaced with the newer version. Players will keep any piece of the legacy set that they have in their possession. In addition, all Legacy pieces will still be tradeable.
To reflect this change, the current ST and its pieces have been renamed to:
-
Legacy Skuld 2 The ReGhostening Set
-
Legacy Etherite Dagger
-
Legacy Ghastly Drape
-
Legacy Mantle of Skuld
-
Legacy Spectral Ring of Horrors
The Legacy Skuld Set doesn’t provide bonus stats but players can still transform to the 16x16 sprite when wearing the full legacy set. The pieces of the Legacy set do not work with the new reworked Rogue ST set.
The new Rogue ST set will drop from Haunted Cemetery.
Note: The Mystery ST Chest item will now contain the new Rogue ST set instead of the Legacy Rogue ST set, which has been removed from the mystery item.
