    Fragments Update - May 16th, 2017 + Eternity Eddie!

    Earn consistent progress towards top tier rewards, including Eternity Eddie and other key characters from the Legacy of the Beast story!

    New Eddie: Eternity Eddie!

    The mascot Eddie for Legacy of the Beast has arrived! Eternity Eddie is inspired by many of the popular Eddies over the years (Cyborg Eddie’s helmet, Trooper Eddie’s flag, etc), and his skills are equally drawn from many of the powerful effects used in the PVP Arena. He can gain Counter Strike upon killing an enemy, give himself Revenge, remove beneficial effects, inflict Passive Disabled, and then crush his enemies by summoning The Beast with his Fury!

    Eternity Eddie is a 5 star Assassin available exclusively from the Eternity Soul, which is earned using the Fragments feature described below. Check out more on Eternity Eddie in his Character Discussions forum post.

    New Ally Characters

    The following characters from the Legacy of the Beast initial campaign have joined Eternity Eddie in the Eternity Soul:

    • The Clairvoyant (5 star Magus): All enemy status effect remover that can revive a random ally with her Power skill or revive and heal all allies and give them a Cleanse buff with her Fury.
    • Beelzebub (5 star Warrior): All enemy attacker that can Burn, Blind, and Seal enemies, with a Fury which Vanishes all allies.
    • Wrath (5 star Assassin): All enemy attacker which can remove beneficial effects, inflict Marks, or use his Fury to do all damage types at once and inflict a Flare status effect for every damage over time effect on the enemy.


    These 5 star characters can only be obtained from an Eternity Soul, which is earned using the Fragments feature described below.

    New Feature: Fragments

    Fragments is a new feature that is available for everyone that has completed the introduction to the game. You can access your list of fragments from the Book of Souls screen.

    Fragments are essentially small portions of a specific reward. At the launch of the feature, you can work towards the following:

    • Eternity Soul: Get 150 Eternity Soul Fragments from competing in PVP to earn an Eternity Soul, which guarantees one of 4 exclusive 5 star characters: Clairvoyant, Beelzebub, Wrath, and Eternity Eddie!
    • Precious Soul: Get 50 Precious Soul Fragments from completing Skull Quests to earn a Precious Soul, which gives you a Sacrificial Heart (anywhere from 600 to 4000 essence for sacrificing) or Gold Idol (anywhere from 50,000 to 1,000,000 gold when sold)


    Over time, we will add more fragments to the game, some as limited time events, and others as new long term goals you can work towards.

    Feature Revision: Skull Quests (Formerly Secret Locations)

    Secret Locations have been refactored into Skull Quests. Skull Quests’ purpose is largely the same as Secret Locations: reward the player for completing objectives (ie “Skulls”) with special quests that give valuable rewards a limited amount of times per day. However, there are key differences:

    • Skull Quests have been collected into a single list that is accessible from the main HUB
    • All Skull Quests unlock 1/day, but unlock either at the usual reset time, 8 hours after reset time, or 16 hours after reset time (improved from unlocking every 1, 2, 3, or 5 days)
    • Skull Quests unlock based on the total amount of Skulls you’ve earned across all Cosmos worlds (instead of unlocking if you get all skulls in a single map). This means new players will earn the first few Skull Quests sooner, while still having the last Skull Quest require all other Skulls to be earned
    • There are only 8 Skull Quests (down from 12 Secret Locations)
    • The costs of the quests have increased to 8-12 Sands of Time (up from 4-5)
    • The quests use the same enemies and settings as before, but have been renamed based on the primary rewards they give: Gold and Souls Cache, XP Material Cache, Evo Material Cache, Talisman Cache, Gold and Souls Horde, XP Material Horde, Evo Material Horde, and Talisman Horde


    The amount and type of rewards that would be earned from completing Skull Quests each day is the equal to or greater than the average amount earned from Secret Locations, but rewards have been redistributed so Souls are only obtained in Gold and Soul Cache/Horde, Evo Shards and Evo Runes are only in Evo Material Cache/Horde, etc. The only exception is Ironite, Skill Shards, and the new Precious Soul Fragments, which can be earned from all Skull Quests.

    And as a minor aside, while all of the previous talismans that were available in Secret Locations are now available in either the Talisman Cache or Talisman Horde Skull Quests, the Talisman Cache now also has Crystal Talismans (green talisman, 2 set effect to increase MR by 1% of HP). These are the MR counterparts to Stone Talismans that are already in the Talisman Cache.
