Elvia Calpheon

Monster Zones 

The following monster zones will be under the influence of the Elvia Realm when you enter an Elvia server. The powerful monsters corrupted by Hadum's aura present different challenges for the Adventurers that dare to face them. 

- Saunil Camp  

- Gehaku Plain 

- Rhutum Outstation 

- Hexe Sanctuary 

- Quint Hill 

  

Elvia Distortion Phenomenon 

“Elvia Distortion Phenomenon” occurs while you are in combat within Elvia Calpheon. 

When the distortion phenomenon occurs, the weather of the area changes. This is important to note as the appearance of Shadow of Nightmares monsters depend on the weather. 

  

Loot 

Elvia Calpheon monster zones drop items required for the following: 

- Alchemy Stone upgrades 

- Godr-Ayed weapon conversion 

- Godr-Ayed weapon enhancement



Elvia Distortion Phenomenon

While you fight near the Rifts of Despair in Elvia Calpheon, special weather effects occasionally appear. This sudden weather effect is called the “Elvia Distortion Phenomenon.” 

  

When an Elvia Distortion Phenomenon occurs, one of the following types of “Shadow of Nightmares” will appear out of the Rift of Despair depending on the occurrence. 

- Shadow Monsters and Gigagord 

- Ogre 

- Cyclops

 

▲ Change of weather caused by Elvia Distortion Phenomenon 


 
▲ Rift of Despair 


 
Gigagord, Ogre, Cyclops 

  

When you defeat the monsters that appeared following the Elvia Distortion Phenomenon, then the phenomenon ends. 

  

Gigagord, Ogre, and Cyclops are the boss monsters that appear from the Elvia Distortion Phenomenon. They take additional damage when certain monsters in the Elvia monster zones are defeated. 

  

When you defeat a boss monster from the Elvia Distortion Phenomenon, you will get the “Corrupting Darkness” buff and “Remnants of Darkness” debuff. 

- Corrupting Darkness: Significantly increases your damage against Elvia Calpheon monsters. (5 min duration) 

- Remnants of Darkness: You cannot get the Corrupted Darkness effect while this effect is applied. (30 min duration)


Ancient Spirit Light 

Defeating monsters in Elvia Calpheon has a low chance to drop the "Ancient Spirit Light" item. 



Ancient Spirit Lights can be used to purify the Rifts of Despair. 

Using the Ancient Spirit Light near a Rift of Despair will weaken it and make it rain down blessings for 5 minutes. The rain grants you the "Blessing of the Ancient Spirits." 

- Blessing of the Ancient Spirits: Significantly increases your damage against Elvia Calpheon monsters while you have the blessing. 

  

  

The Ancient Spirit Light item will last for 6 hours once looted. It will disappear once the duration is over. Using the Ancient Spirit Light without a Rift of Despair nearby will not grant any buff.

The Giants in the Gehaku Plain under the influence of Hadum are looking for their chance to gain immense power from souls scattered across the plain. 

 

When you defeat the Giants, the “World-weary Souls” will appear. 

They gather together and build up their resentment. Once enough resentment has gathered, <Ravening> Giants will rush in to steal the souls. From this point onward, the Giants will become stronger as more souls gather. 

 

While you continue to defeat the Giants rushing in, the Giant Fighter will eventually appear. Defeating the fighter has a low probability of making Gehaku appear.

When you defeat the beings in the area, they leave a "Soul of the Dead" on the spot where they fell. Then the <Soul Harvester> Skeleton Witmirth comes to reap them. 

Once the <Soul Harvester> Skeleton Witmirth harvests enough "Souls of the Dead," it will crave the soul of a living Adventurer and attack them. 

Defeating the soul harvester will cause the souls it reaped to come bursting forth and summon more of the dead. 

The <Unstable Soul> Green Orc Skeleton Warrior that appears at this time will explode when defeated, causing massive damage to the surrounding dead. 

 

Once enough deathly energy has gathered, Hexe Marie creates Hexe Marie’s Domain. All the soldiers in Hexe Marie’s Domain will melt down and give rise to the <Soulless> Skeleton Warrior. Once enough deathly energy has gathered, Hexe Marie will appear herself to explode the soul of Skeleton Witmirth. 

The Skeleton Witmirth will then lose its physical form and start to call in the dead.
