Halloween 2026: Event and Balance Update

Halloween returns with familiar encounters, a reworked Between the Worlds dungeon, updated rewards, and new mounts. This year's event brings new challenges and a revised progression path for seasonal PvE titles.

Event Schedule

• Halloween: October 15 to November 18, 2026.
• Between the Worlds: October 22 to November 9, 2026.

These dates reflect the current plan and include an allowance of two to three days for potential adjustments and balancing. Final preparations are ongoing, and the schedule remains subject to minor changes.

Hell Rider

Hell Rider returns as the main Halloween event, rebalanced for players at levels 40 to 44.

Recommended equipment: Level 40 Etor gear.

Between the Worlds

Between the Worlds has been reworked and rebalanced as Halloween's more demanding PvE sub-event. Prepare an appropriate party composition, upgraded equipment, and a coordinated strategy.

• Farming loot remains available. Key rewards are now distributed through daily quests.
• Defeating Guardian of the Passage automatically grants a side quest to defeat the final two bosses.
• Completing this quest grants the key item required for Halloween PvE title progression. This reward can be obtained only once, requiring at least one full dungeon clear.
• Additional runs provide boxes, progression materials, and items used to craft different PvE title variants.
• Craftable boxes can also contain a new mount.

Equipment Requirements

• Minimum: Level 40 or 44 gear upgraded to +7.
• Recommended: Level 44 gear upgraded to +8 or +9.

Revival rules are unchanged from last year. Players cannot revive and simply rejoin their party. Only a Cleric can revive players during combat.
