The Halloween season has officially descended upon Raven 2, bringing with it a special dungeon and a set of events. The developers have designed these to be fairly straightforward: grind away in the dungeon, and the mission rewards will practically fall into your lap. I have also trawled through the community forums to address the burning questions many of you have regarding the latest patch notes. Let's dive in.

Raven 2 Latest News

30 minutes a day: Halloween event dungeon farming

The centrepiece of this week's Raven 2 update is the event dungeon, 'Candy Village of the Pumpkin Ghost.' It remains open until 4:59 AM on 12 November and is split into five tiers based on level. You will need to be at least level 30 to enter, and the standard daily allowance is 30 minutes. Keep in mind that the event provides time recharge stones, which should help you eke out a bit more playtime.

Inside the dungeon, you can farm Trixie's Gift Baskets, Trixie's Pumpkin Candy, and Pumpkin Candy Ingredients. The latter is your primary crafting material for the event. Head over to the in-game 'Crafting - Event - Pumpkin Ghost' menu to use them. You can use these to forge high-grade holy water or other special items, so don't let them sit idle in your inventory.

It’s that time again! Server Transfer Season

Meanwhile, the Raven 2 server transfer season is back. You have until 11:59 PM on 4 November to make your move, and the goods on offer remain consistent with previous runs. You can purchase up to two account transfer tickets and two guild transfer tickets per account, priced at 1,000 Crystals each. Remember, if you are planning a guild move, the guild leader's application triggers a 10-minute window for members to consent. Effectively, this means the real deadline is 11:49 PM on 4 November—don't get caught out.

Q&A and Strategy Sharing

I have collated some of the most pressing queries from the Raven 2 community boards. There seems to be some confusion regarding the event and the server transfer. A user named 'Jajaja' asked about the equipment binding rules during a server transfer—specifically whether it depends on the item type. A fellow user, 'Kkikooo', clarified that all unequipped gear is bound, regardless of its grade.

Another user, 'LikaELaN', enquired about how to obtain the 'High-Grade Pumpkin Doll' Halloween item. As I will explain in the event highlight section, this is a buff item that can be upgraded up to the Hero grade. You can snag this by completing the first mission of the event.

Spotlight: The Hottest Events

How easy can it get? Enjoying the Halloween event

So, what exactly is going on with the Raven 2 Halloween festivities? First up is the 'Candy Village of the Pumpkin Ghost Exploration 1.' It is a simple affair where you clear 10 missions for rewards. The tasks are basic: farm Pumpkin Candy Ingredients and defeat event dungeon monsters. If you are already grinding the dungeon, you will likely hit these milestones without even trying.

The loot includes one Trixie Doll (High-Grade), four Trixie's Gift Baskets, 20 Trixie's Pumpkin Candies, and one Trixie's Cape. The Trixie Doll is a timed item that grants bonuses to experience, MP recovery, and damage against normal monsters. You can upgrade it to Hero grade through event crafting. The ingredients are farmed in the dungeon, the baskets are essentially loot boxes for summon scrolls, and the candies serve as buff potions.

The real prize is Trixie's Cape. If you combine it with 20,000 Pumpkin Candy Ingredients, you can craft the 'Trixie's Treasure Selection Box.' This is your ticket to choosing one of the following: a +4 Dazzling Relic Selection Box, a Special Alchemy Support Box, a Hero Stella 1-time Summon Scroll, or a Hell Battle Rare Heavenstone Box. Make sure you complete those missions.

The second event is the 'Trixie’s Candy Village Invitation Attendance.' Over a 14-day period, you will receive six event dungeon time recharge stones and 16 Trixie's Gift Baskets. Both events run until 4:59 AM on 12 November. Note that to claim every single attendance reward, you need to log in daily starting from the update date.

Additionally, the '[Gold] Balvar Frontline Gold Bar Drop Rate Boosting Event' runs until 4:59 AM on 5 November. Defeating monsters in the Gold Dungeon will double your chances of snagging a gold bar. This only applies to the base entry time, and you have a total of 14 hours to play with. Manage your farming schedule accordingly.
