- Kataclysmic Confrontation!
Someone or something has summoned a horde of cursed black kats into the Clockworks. These shadowy beasts hunger for arcane power and raided the Moorcroft Manor Archives' precious collection of magical grimoires.
In the wrong hands these ancient tomes could be kata- er, catastrophic, but it turns out that black kats can't read, so they instead decided to just eat them.
The residents of Moorcroft Manor would like you to retrieve the Ancient Pages of the magical grimoires that quite likely reside in the stomachs of black kats. We'll leave you to figure out just how to recover them...
- Event Overview
Kataclysmic Confrontation is a new event that will run for a limited time but will return again some time in the future. The goal of the event is to collect Ancient Page tokens for all-new kat gear in Moorcroft Manor. The event is available for knights rank 4-1 and up.
Ancient Page tokens can be acquired in two ways:
- Completing the daily Prestige Missions and receiving them as mission rewards
- Receiving them as drops from black kat monsters in missions or the Arcade
Black kats are a new monster that focus on powerful curse attacks. They can randomly be found in place of any spookat-type monster in any Tier 2 and Tier 3 level level of the Clockworks (Missions and Arcade Gates). Black kats often, but no always, drop Ancient Page tokens (1 token in Tier 2, 3 tokens in Tier 3). Specifically, any 'guaranteed encounters' of black kats in a mission do not drop page tokens, though the mission guarantees them as rewards (once a day).
Ancient Page Tokens do not expire. Acquiring all the Kat gear will likely take multiple events.
This event is scheduled to end on February 13th.
- Moorcroft Manor Additions
Moorcroft Manor is now outfitted with the Moorcroft Archives, a special library of ancient grimoires. Unfortunately just as soon as it opened it was raided by a mysterious swarm of black kats and its up to you to help restore it.
New Features:
- Pembrooke, the spookat caretaker of the Moorcroft Archives
- Montague, the Historic Preservation Motivator. Montague is a token trader that exchanges rewards for Ancient Page tokens
- Moorcroft Alchemy Station, where Kat Gear can be crafted
- There's also definitely something up with the Konjuring Kat. Maybe if you had the right item...
Pembrooke, Montague and the Moorcroft Alchemy Station will remain after the event ends.
New Kat Gear
All-new gear can be acquired through participation in the event. This gear can be obtained from Montague in Moorcroft Manor and via the Moorcroft Alchemy Station. It includes:
- Kat Claw Hood (3* helm)
- Kat Claw Mask (4* helm)
- Kat Claw Cowl (5* helm)
- Kat Eye Hood (3* helm)
