Event: The Secret Hellpath



A glowing meteorite shower has descended upon Gelkmaros and Inggison, revealing a hidden entrance to the Secret Hellpath. Explore the area and defeat the monsters before they invade Balaurea. Awards await you like the Transformation Contract: Yustiel, [Rune] Class S Minion Contract Selection Box (10 types) and the +6 Extreme Equipment Chest!

Running: 12th February (9:00 AM) to 12th March (8:59 AM CET)

[h2] Venture Down the Hellpath[/h2]

Speak with Snoopinerk who will give you the task to enter the Secret Hellpath. Then it’s up to you to defend Atreia against the monster invasion for 20 minutes.

Use the Energy of Protection dropped by fallen monsters – destroying them gives you a currency which you can spend on weapons for the instance, as well as improvements to your skills.

Depending on how well you do during the defence, you’ll receive the following rewards:
  • 10:00 minutes remaining and 500,000 points earned → 3x [Event] Camo Chest Key, 3x [Event] Experience Crystal and 1x Investigation Report about the Secret Hellpath
  • 7:30 minutes remaining and 220,000 points earned → 1x [Event] Camo Chest Key, 1x [Event] Experience Crystal and 1x Investigation Report about the Secret Hellpath
    If you have less then 7:30 minutes remaining and earned fewer than 220,000 points, you’ll go away empty-handed.

During your battle on the Hellpath, it’s possible that you’ll meet a nasty Wildcat. Defeat it and then grab the Incognito Key and the Key for Gold Camo Chest. Using the Incognito Key you can open the door behind which the Gold Camo Chest is located. Please note that you’ll lose both keys as soon as you leave the instance.

[h2] Get Meteorite Debris[/h2]

As a reward, you can get a [Rune] Orichalcon Hammer from the Camo Chest or the AION Shop. You can use this to process the remnants of the Glowing Meteorite to get the [Rune] Glowing Meteorite Bundle.

You can either use a hammer to receive one bundle or use 30 hammers to get 33 bundles (or 36 with a little luck).
