Visit  Rumdor in Mag Mell, Hrolf in Mularn, or Sir Prescott in Camelot Hills to begin the quest!


Valentine's Day: Love's Shield
 



As the Valentine's Day festivities spread across the realm, whispers of a sinister presence emanating from the Hibernian Maze have once again surfaced. Tales tell of a malevolent pair, their love steeped in darkness, spreading chaos and corruption as they revel in their twisted affection.

The golden lovers mini event has begun! Players can visit the following NPC's to obtain the quest [Valentine's] Love's Shield:

  • Albion: Lady Idris in Catterick Hamlet

  • Players who completed this quest last year can complete it again this year and obtain the shield.
