Update 50.4 Release Notes

 

Here are the release notes for Update 50.4, released on Thursday, October 14th, 2021. 

 

Of Special Note:

 

The Night Revels has returned!

The Night Revels event is back with changes for 2021 along with new rewards! This year, players will no longer need to gather Night Revels Keys by running in the Delera's Graveyard landscape, although they can continue to do so if they wish. A new Champion type that only appears when Night Revels is active called the Shadow of Mabar can be found in quests when running on Hard difficulty and above. Defeating these Champions provides a chance for a chest to appear which contain Pieces of Darkest Chocolate and sometimes a Night Revels Key. Additionally, there is a small chance to find Darkest Chocolate or Night Revels Keys in any chest inside of a quest while the event is active.

Once you have acquired a key, enter The Crypt through Delera's Graveyard in House Jorasco to run one of this year's Night Revels quests and earn ingredients that can be bartered with Joe Candymaker outside of Delera's Graveyard for various rewards. Additionally, players can purchase Night Revels Keys and Elixirs of Spooky Luck in the DDO Store. The Elixir of Spooky Luck provides a +10% chance to find Night Revels ingredients in chests for one hour. Night Revels begins on October 14th and runs through November 2nd! This year's new rewards include new cosmetic items, a new color of Reaper's Platemail, Cloak and Helm, and a +2 Festive Bonus to Constitution Augment. NOTE: Ingredients from the 2019/2020 Night Revels events have now spoiled. The Night Revels candy rewards are no longer available, although we hope to bring them back in a future Night Revels.
