So, these events look quite promising!

LoL Part III: Lucifer and The Onyx Sons are arriving in game, along with the final LoL Frontier Dungeon mission. Should be very fun!
Protective Measures: Standard Evo event.
Dracula's Descent: So, this is going to be a dungeon based off the themes of Transylvania, with Dracula as a 5 star new character and some werewolves to go along with him, all except for warrior based on the next event.
Warrior Werewolf: A standard fragment event, with a nice new character and possibly new talismans.
Haunted Abyss: Sacrifice event with either new characters to unlock or just some new talismans.
Shifting Sands: A new event. I'm not sure what to expect from it.
Gauntlet Season 5: A new assassin character will be joining the gauntlet roster; I don't know who it could be, but something tells me it's the Duelist from the song of the same name.

I’m so pumped for duelist. If he’s anything like my character idea (shameless plug u should totally check out) then he’s going to be VERY fun.

Maybe "Lucifer" = "Dracula"? Is "Lucifer" a character mentioned in the comic books or is it just speculation?

So, there was a forum post that I am going to have to link once I find it, but someone managed to get into the Collections tab in the book of souls and see some content early. They predicted the Football Eddies, Dark Lilith, Lone Star Eddie, and the Shardbornes. Lucifer was one of the characters there, and if you know a bit about the Bible you'll know that one of Lucifer's titles was "Lightbringer," which brings us to the Lord Of Light. He recently merged with the Beast shard to gain his full power, and it makes sense that the final form of the Lord Of Light and The Beast is the Devil himself, Lucifer.

That's an interesting hypothesis you have there. ;)

Even if it's wrong I'm still looking forward to all of these events.

EDIT: Also, the other thing that points me this way is that Dark Lilith's final form is Lilith Nightmoon. Lucifer's "last name" or other title is "Morningstar." Nightmoon and Morningstar kinda seem related, no?

Hey! Nice to get some theories going based off of my post. I drew the same conclusion about Lucifer... It makes sense, both logically and biblically!

Dracula wasn't in the Collections tab, no. What really concerns me is trying to figure out the Halloween Eddie. I want it to be Live After Death, but none of the events listed allude to that. Maybe Fallen Icarus? Still doesn't make enough sense... The graveyard theme brings me back to Live After Death Eddie however... Ugh. My brain hurts.

I think the graveyard artwork is based on Ryan Christensen's Vampire Hunter piece here (https://www.artstation.com/artwork/iron-maiden-legacy-of-the-beast).

My money's on vampire hunter being buffed and receiving a limited version with a passive when the Dracula dungeon drops, kinda makes sense, a decked out vamp hunter, going out to hunt Dracula. Maybe it'll be a Frontier dungeon at some point?

One of my favorite pieces of art, always a fan of Boris and Frazetta too. Completely graveyard dupe, good catch. Plus the corridor on the left side beckons me to enter into the upcoming event dungeon for some friendly violent fun. Hack and slash dungeon crawl addict since the days of 20 sided dice and lead figures!

On the topic of “Lucifer” in the Lord of Light song, there is lyric in one of the first verses that says “...Lucifer was just an angel led astray.”

"Shifting sands" sounds like an Egyptian themed content. My guess is we will see an Egyptian themed frontier dungeon, where Ramses Eddie will be awarded with achievements, along with some awakenable new Egyptian chars + old chars (hope gods will be awakenable) , also eternal talismans will possibly drop there - since all other first 6 sets are in frontier dungeons now except the eternal set. Let's see ;)

You know... there's a song on No Prayer..., what was it called again, oh right - "The Assassin"! Maybe we'll get an assassin assassin! With skills such as "Better Watch Out", "The Final Touch" and "Thrill of the Chase" :p

Might "Shifting Sands" introduce a facelift to Kingdom of the Sands?

It could easily be "The Assassin," I just thought that was too on the nose.

A few weeks ago DoctorEly posted information on new toons found in the so-called "collection" tab. From what I remember Warrior and Sentinel PDKs were also mentioned - perhaps they will be released during this "Shifting Sands" event.
I cannot think of any other connection between the name of the event and the things we have in game now, but it is also possible that a new dungeon will be released (or something else).

Yeah, it will be the "Watch your Life Pass Away like Sands of Time" Dungeon!
Geez, I never knew of or even imagined before, a game where you don't really play it, but put it on auto and wait.
It's all built to make money on ironite. We build up characters by grinding in order to compete against a broken & cheating AI in pvp and gauntlet.

"But mark my WORDS .... one day..... I will have all the resources necessary to DEFEAT YOU AI.
The day is coming when you will conquer me NO MORE !!!"

I was almost certain they’d release the Dracula event tonight, but I guess they’re waiting until the cosmos cup ends.

I just won a Werewolf which is a Dracula event character. So possibly, but not surprisingly, the launch got messed up.

Volrath
10-15-2019, 01:09 AM
Well I'll be, most of them are already in the game if you look in the fragments menu. Dracula is a warrior that seems to be a variant on the original Count. Assassin Werewolf is 5-star and Sentinel and Magus are 4-star. Gunner doesn't seem to be in there yet and the Warrior one is going to be a fragment event.

So was the dungeon supposed to start tonight and didn't? Or were the characters mistakenly added a day early?

Bakura

This game developer just slaps stuff together and throws it out there, like we're dogs surrounding a bowl. It gets messy..... and not alot of game testing or proof checking either. We get it, try it, they nerf it or Hotfix it.... it ain't pretty, but I guess in the end, us Lotb addicts don't really care how we get our gamefix.... just get in the needle and inject it.

What an ugly portrayal.... hahaha🤣

Yup
10-15-2019, 04:19 AM
Already pulled Dracula and the Sentinel Werewolf. They are in the souls..... they will drop.. and function. Dracula can be a one-hit killer for some enemies.... including fully awakened Lucifer, Dark Lilith, and many of the LOLs..

I havent used S Werewolf yet.. but his passive makes allies immune to doom, perfect corruption and perfect disable I believe.

nice avatar, Bakura. excited for the Count in his fancy dress clothes? lol

GrimDusk
10-15-2019, 04:21 AM
So there’s definitely a VHE variant coming. The gunner Werewolf is likely an event exclusive, hence why he’s nowhere in common souls.

Ydex

I'm at 475 of 500 Warrior Mythical fragments, wherein lies The Count at 1/8 odds.

Yup
10-15-2019, 04:24 AM
Drac dropped from a single Warrior Mythical for me.. so ... yeah....

S Werewolf dropped from about 5-8 Sentinel Epics.

Tried to get M and A Werewolfs (Werewolves???) to drop.. but they didn't from any of my various magus and assassin soul frags.

Ydex
10-15-2019, 04:28 AM
What Talismans can Dracula equip? You'll passively cleanse your team every turn if you're wearing Vipers.

Yup
10-15-2019, 04:31 AM
2 yellow - 1 purple

Passive revives allies if he's not at full HP at his turn.

Basic attack inflicts perfect disable and removes shields... and, with crit strike active, deals roughly ~50k physical or magic damage.. then deals ~160k true damage.....he's a single-target killer. Defenses are a tad weak so I've been playing trying to figure out how to get him a tad more resilient. Seems putting sustaining talismans on him isn't healing him like they should - that might be a bug.. or possibly due to him not actually being active in character tables yet since he was released early possibly.

Ydex
10-15-2019, 04:35 AM
One hit random, one hit true, 50% Critical chance, remove shields, AND disable. That's just brutal.

Damage scales on CURRENT HP (never seen that one) and revive triggers on FULL health. Looks like he has low MR, is that the catch?

Yup
10-15-2019, 04:38 AM
he also clears silver buffs from allies. Seems he's basically the anti-Dark Lilith/Lucifer, But he is NOT "awakenable"

Ydex
10-15-2019, 04:43 AM
Yellow and purple? I don't have a lot of fancy Talismans, but Vorpal (50% Echo chance, 25% extra turn to ally) and Chance (critical 35%) are what I would do. A lot of hits, a lot of crits.

Hey, man.... Thanks for posting. I've been waiting for this group of toons... wouldn't have got one early if you hadn't mentioned it.


nice avatar, Bakura. excited for the Count in his fancy dress clothes? lol
Yes, I have been excited. Never got last year's Count so this makes up for it.
I started the sac event early... I went through tons of souls, earned a Mythical & enough Skill Shards.... got the Count Dracula and he's fully sharded.
He looks more like he's going "Fox Hunting" ... I expected more of a Christopher Lee type Dracula, but he looks like the Gary Oldman Dracula when he went to England (minus long hair/sunglasses.) Maybe they'll make an Anthony Hopkins/ Van Helsing like Vampire Hunter.
I picked my Avatar days ago in expectation of this new Drac.
My forum Halloween costume is "Count Bakura" ... ha ha ... I mean "Blah, Blah"
6472

His passive cleanses all negs & silver from all allies if Bleed or Perf. Bleed is present on enemy at the start of turn. It also increases everyone's Hp 15 % when healed. Good counter to W. LoL.
Trying Sustain talis to see if they work. Might try Sacred.
He has 1 purple/2 yellow slots.
647364746475

Yup
10-15-2019, 07:37 AM
But.. he's not healing via talismans.. Sustaining and Angel aren't healing him like they should... at least not here.... Maybe they will when the event actually starts.

Bakura

You could be right about Gunner Werewolf. He might be the "LoL grind for frags" toon, if not him then a Warrior werewolf. I did see a 5* Assassin Werewolf in BoS.... he's probably going to be decent. The other Werewolves (Mag./Sent.) were both 4*.
"Hey eeey yeah, Bark at the Moon"
6476647764786479


But.. he's not healing via talismans.. Sustaining and Angel aren't healing him like they should... at least not here.... Maybe they will when the event actually starts.
Yeah, I thought about Hex and Sacreds too.
I was wondering if the description may have meant "Fully Healed?"

I just tested Dracula in like 5 arena battles... he's got a serious hit w/ a T3 yellow cosmic. I'm impressed. One time it did seem like it increased max hp, but I can't say it's noticeable. I did see him remove debuffs, only on the next round after perf bleed was inflicted.
For example, Vipers put perf. bleed on, the enemy all went, put debuffs on me, then my turn, debuffs not cleared, My team goes, then Vipers inflicted same toon which increased his perf bleed duration , the enemy went, then debuffs were cleared from my team. It's nice, but if you have to wait 2 turns, enemy most likely will clear negs by then (D. Lilith did.)

I faced an upper rank team that had Maxed M. LoL/ Max Lucifer/ Max D. Lilith/ Alex... lost the 1st time, then focused on Lucy, won the second time. I used Dracula/Max W. LoL/Malakhov/Alex.
If the negs/silver cleanse would work sooner, he would be in the next arena meta.

My guess is the event was supposed to start yesterday at rollover and someone messed up., since it was a US holiday. (Columbus Day) perhaps they had it scheduled and every one had the day off and forgot.

-----------------------


I have the Assassin and Sentinel Wolves as well.. Assassin is pretty good with the right talisman set up... Sentinel is good, but he's strictly a single-target hitter. Both of them are keepers overall.

RNG was with me this time. Used 2 mythical warrior souls to get Drac, 2 mythical assassin to get the purple wolf, 13 epic sentinel for the green wolf and 10 epic magus for the blue one. My luck is used up for a long time. The purple wolf and Drac are pretty solid additions. Thanks RobG for the heads up!

It wont be a problem for me much longer, but it would have been nice if the refil when you Rank Up was ADDED to your current total. Always felt like a waste of Ranking Up when you were almost full already.

Errrr.. after rank 100 you can say goodbye to those power-up refills entirely. They stop completely at 100 -- and you stop gaining ranks.. once you reach 100.. that's it, no more "climbing", no more "power up" rewards.

Yeah we could do with more than 500 spaces I agree. I do have dupes of some characters I have to say but we should be able to do that if that is what we want to do as well as having sac space as well - 600 would help but there may be some who need more and it will only get worse as so many new characters are coming every week and month.
