Lost Ark’s Mystics and Mayhem update is now live.
The event – just-oh-so-coincidentally releasing ahead of Halloween – “celebrates Autumn and the scary season”, boasting new costumes, enemies, a new Harvest Festival event, and three new raids: Mystic Abyss, Vykas Legion, and and Achates Trial Guardian.
The former, Abyss, is available for character level 1302+ and will run until 16th November, whilst Bykas Legion’s Inferno difficulty requires a level of 1460.
The Achates Trial Raid opens “simultaneously at a more friendly time for all regions” later today, at 6pm tonight UK time.
There’s also competitive proving grounds season 2, where “competitive play ratings have been compressed and adjusted based on performance from previous seasons”.
As for the Harvest Festival?
“The Aldebaran Harvest Festival is a traditional Arkesian festival to commemorate the time when Aldebaran (the god of life) brought life to the earth for the first time,” the team explains. “On this day when the biggest moon rises, there is a custom for the people of Arkesia to eat food crafted from the harvested grain and pray for each other’s health.
