11 February 2022 | Gameplay - Event | Shroud of the Apocrea | "The Return Of The Apocrean Harvester"
We have confirmed that the Apocrean Harvester has returned once again. Spiral HQ needs your help! From now through February 25th, travel onto the Grasping Plateau full of trapped souls and phantom-like monsters. In a maze-like graveyard, knights will find the Apocrea trapping and collecting souls. This sinister being will pursue any who enter the Grasping Plateau hoping to add to the collection. Work together to free souls and find Apocrean Sigil tokens which can be used at the Obelisk of Creation to craft Obsidian weapons and the Grasping Aura. You don't want to get caught out there alone--definitely bring your friends with you on this mission, and try not to lose sight of them! |

Be sure to collect Ancient Shell materials from the Ancient Grove to craft 3*, 4* and 5* Tortodrone handguns and shields at the Mysterious Alchemy Machine!
