Additional Pre-Launch Changes, Doorbusters and 50% Donations are open!
The gates are opening, the new era is almost here, and we’re going big for Abaldar.
Starting now and lasting until the end of the Abaldar season, all donations are 50% off.
That means every donation made this season is available at half the usual cost — whether you’re preparing for launch, grabbing your season essentials, hunting cosmetics, or supporting Archlight as we kick off the new era.
We don't want this 50% discount to devalue the amount of changes, new systems and improvements the team has worked incredibly hard on for this new Abaldar Season
New Season Doorbuster: Magma Box
This is the new launch bonus included FOR FREE with the largest pack. It is also a cross-server Doorbuster, meaning you will receive it on Legacy as well.
For Abaldar launch, the new Doorbuster is the Magma Box.
Each Magma Box lets you choose between:
Enchanted Glint Shader Token
Use this token to unlock the Glint Shader, granting +2.5% Monster Essence and a 10% increased chance to find Slimes.
The bonus is locked and only becomes active on Legacy.
Magma Core Backpack
A molten-core backpack forged to carry more than supplies — it radiates volcanic power wherever it goes.
While equipped or carried in your inventory, it grants +2.5% Monster Essence and +2.5% Critical Chance.
Volume: 100
Magma Core Relic
A volatile relic burning with the heart of a living volcano, able to shift between raw destruction and hardened defense.
While carried in your inventory, the offensive version increases your overall damage by +2%.
Use the relic to transform it into its defensive version.
While carried in your inventory, the defensive version increases your resistances by +2%.
The Magma Box will also be available separately for 4 LATs each from the Living Archlight Tokens NPC, so players who want more can pick up additional boxes during the season. Purchases made through the LAT NPC will also be cross-server.
This bonus is only available while it remains on the donation page. Once gone from there, it is gone for good. This is your chance to stand out and secure these rare and limited bonuses
