A blazing meteorite shower has descended upon Gelkmaros and Inggison, unveiling a hidden entrance to the Secret Infernal Path. Venture into this realm and defeat the monsters before they threaten Balaurea. Awaiting you are treasures such as the Transformation Contract: Yustiel, the [Engraving] Class S Shimiol Contract Box (10 types), and the +6 Ultimate Equipment Chest!
Event Period: 02/12 (9:00 AM) to 03/12 (8:59 AM CET)
Embark on the Infernal Path
Speak to Schnuppenerk to receive the quest to enter the Secret Infernal Path. There, it’s your duty to defend Atreia for 20 minutes against a monster invasion.
Utilize the “Energy of Protection” dropped from defeated monsters: By destroying this, you acquire currency to purchase attack and defense weapons for the instance or enhance your abilities.
Depending on your performance in defense, you receive these rewards:
- 10:00 minutes remaining and 500,000 points earned → 3x [Event] Concealment Chest Key, 3x [Event] Crystal of Experience, and 1x Investigation Report on the Secret Infernal Path
- 07:30 minutes remaining and 220,000 points earned → 1x [Event] Concealment Chest Key, 1x [Event] Crystal of Experience, and 1x Investigation Report on the Secret Infernal Path If fewer than 07:30 minutes remain and fewer than 220,000 points are earned, you’ll unfortunately leave empty-handed.
As you battle within the Infernal Path, you might encounter the devious Wildcat. Defeat it to grab the Incognito Key and the Gold Concealment Chest Key. Use the Incognito Key to open the door behind which lies the Gold Concealment Chest. Please note, you lose both keys upon leaving the instance.
Secure the Meteorite Debris
As a reward from the Concealment Chest or the AION Shop, you receive the [Engraving] Orichalcon Hammer. Use it to work on the remains of the blazing meteorite and receive the [Engraving] Blazing Meteorite Bundle.
You may use a hammer to get one bundle, or use 30 hammers for 33 (up to 36 with some luck) bundles.
