Tortodrone Migration!

Since the troubles with the last Tortodrone Migration, Spiral HQ established a monitoring station in the Ancient Grove. Recon Knights there report an increase in activity and suspect the Fiends have returned to the Grim Gates. Spiral HQ is sending you to investigate!

Gather intel and Fiendish Glyphs from Fiends in the Clockworks. Explore the Ancient Grove and collect Ancient Shell materials. Craft new Tortodrone handguns at the mysterious alchemy machine!

A Kataclysmic Confrontation!

Again, Black Kats are being reported in the Clockworks! The hordes of shadowy beasts hunger for arcane power and continually raid the Moorcroft Manor Archives' precious collection of magical grimoires.

Collect Ancient Page tokens through the daily Prestige Mission, or as drops from black kat monsters in the Clockworks. Return the pages to Montague in Moorcroft Manor in exchange for Kat Tribe Fetish crafting materials. Visit the Mysterious Alchemy Machine to craft kat-themed gear!

The ShadowTech contains items in the ShadowTech color schemes like:

  • Airbraker costume shields (4 colors)
