8th Anniversary Celebration - 2023
It's that time of the year again – Archlights is turning 8, and we're pulling out all the stops to make this Anniversary Event bigger and better! Get ready for loads of fun and exciting rewards!
The classic "cake eating" event is back, with a twist! Join in, open boxes, and snag the amazing 8th-anniversary backpack [15 attack power,+3% of experience to the entire party, This item stacks per party member carrying it. In case you're not in a party, the experience bonus will be +5%. The experience increase does affect Experience Monster Essences].
As you defeat monsters, watch out for "cake essence" drops. Just type "!cake" to collect them (up to 5 charges). Then, head to a safe zone, type "!cake event," and participate in the Cake Eating Event. Enjoy your cake to summon Anniversary Monsters, who drop valuable cake boxes!
During the Anniversary Event, take part in regular events (like TDM, Bombs, Firestorm, and more) to earn Anniversary Cupcakes. Visit the Anniversary Island and exchange them with Toby for great rewards. The better you perform in events, the more Anniversary Cupcakes you'll receive!
Keep an eye out, as there's a chance that every creature you defeat will drop Anniversary Cupcakes.
While hunting creatures, you might summon an "anniversary monster." Don't worry, they won't attack unless provoked. They behave like Loot Slimes and have health equal to 10% of their killer's maximum health or mana.
