How to Play:

When the Plane of Mabar makes its presence known in Delera's Graveyard (located in House Jorasco in Eberron), the spooky times begin! Characters can enter one of several instances of Delera's Graveyard, each with a different level range: Shared, Levels 1-5, Levels 4-9, Levels 8-13, Levels 12-17, Levels 16-20, Levels 20-25, and Levels 26-30!

When defeating monsters in the Graveyard, characters can receive Darkest Chocolate, which is used as a base ingredient for many recipes, or a Night Revels Key, which is used to enter one of four special event-themed dungeons. Getting Dark Chocoate and Night Revels Keys can be even easier with friends: when in a party, there is a chance to get one of these special items whenever a monster is defeated, whether by you or someone else!

You can also use a Draught of Midnight to get a chance to acquire Night Revels ingredients any time you defeat an undead creature, whether in the Graveyard or not. Additionally, Night-Black Coffee can keep you in the Graveyard longer as it restores Hit Points and Spell Points while in a public area. The Draught of Midnight is available through The Night Revels Vendor, in addition to the DDO Store, and the Night-Black Coffee is available in the DDO Store.

Use a Night Revels Key to enter any one of four event-themed dungeons! The entrances are located in Delera's Graveyard, and are set up like Challenges, offering parties or individuals the opportunity to enter them at any level from 7 to 35! Completing these dungeons on a character under the level of the challenge rating provides an ingredient bonus, while completing the dungeons on a character above the level of the challenge rating provides an ingredient penalty.

•      Haverdashed - Provides Black Apples
•      The Kobold's Newest Ringleader - Provides Shadowy Caramel
•      The Snitch and the Lich - Provides Pinches of Sinister Cinnamon
•      Under New Ravagement - Provides Spooky Almonds

The quests also provide Darkest Chocolate when completed.

The Night Revels Vendor is located in House Jorasco, near the entrance to Delera's Graveyard, and is the place to turn in all of those event ingredients for candy, consumables, and items!

Thanks. Don't think I'll bother with another new set of challenges and ingredients. Especially when they bring back "Kill monsters in a graveyard" after pissing all over any previous effort to do so. Like I'm going to bother with that shit ever again. File under Cove.

It'd be nice if they could write an actual quest with story, multiple paths, etc. but I guess this update shows yet again that those who like decent quality are left playing old content.

It's the same mechanic as Mabore.  Gets funny though when everyone in the group is piking then somebody complains that nothing is dropping lol.

There are still enough motivated minions left. I sometimes wonder what they smoke. Because you HAVE to be smoking good stuffs when you keep killing the same mobs at the same place over and over again WITH JOY. "I liked Mabar" sound to me like "I like herpes".

event is garbage. Go solo it if you want shit. harder time in IQ for favor runs. devs are about as original as gay and retarded people get. It's get rid of mabar then give us back mabar. cool story, devs. I almost care enough to want some of the clickies and augments. Almost.

Fuck me. Docent looks good for cosmetic. Guess I'll be in there today. Sad

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

ok, the prizes were fat for a minute, but the event itself was the worst thing in the game; ever.

I haven't experienced any where near "the whole game" or "ever", but I certainly hated the mechanics of Mabar Undecided

that particular event caused all worlds to crash on more than one occasion; confirming that all "servers" are actually running off of one actual server, and they're only called different "servers" for marketing reasons.

another account of mine got banned for pointing that out on the official forums: i stated that they're no way all players across all "servers" would be having identical log-in issues, quest-specific lag issues, inventory issues, mouse-wheel issues, etc; if the game were actually hosted on different servers.  insta-ban.

Even if you don't give a shit about the items, the level 35 "challenges" are short and worth 136K XP each before XP pots.
