Dark Destroyers Dynamic Event

The Dark Destroyers event occurs day or night in the Ruins of Turayne. Rankings are based on how many Chaos Fragments are turned in. If you acquire 1 of the 3 Dark Destroyer buffs that spawn after 17:00, you cannot turn in your acquired Chaos Fragments. Instead, you're ranked based on how many you've accumulated by the end of the event. You can acquire Chaos Fragments by slaying any Zombies or Skeletons in the region.

Event Details

You turn in your tokens at five merchants scattered throughout the event. You are not penalized for turning anything in before the event ends. If you feel you might die and lose all your Chaos Fragments, you should turn them in regularly. Your final ranking is based on your total accumulated by the end.

Dark Destroyer

At 17:00, a mini-event occurs at three locations marked on the map. At these locations, three waves of four Enchanted Mutants spawn. In the 3rd wave, a Mutant Test Subject is included in the wave. Killing this specific mob drops the Vengeful Spirit Core. Interact with it to acquire the Dark Destroyer buff! Be careful during Dominion Events, though, as you are not able to morph, and your location becomes revealed at certain times.

With the Dark Destroyer buff, you are granted additional Attack Speed, Weapon Damage, and Mana Regen, making placing high at an event much more manageable. The caveat is that you cannot turn in any Chaos Fragments during the event. Once the event ends, you automatically turn in all the Chaos Fragments you've accumulated.

Tevent Skull

Sometimes, a giant floating Tevent Skull appears during the event. You can't miss it. It causes all mobs in the area underneath it to drop more tokens.

Tips

• It's not worth farming the Giant Ravenous Zombie as it only drops around 20-40 Chaos Fragments. Instead, spend your time farming an area.
• If you don't want to share Chaos Fragments with anyone who tags your mobs, make a party. Being in a party prevents anyone outside your party from sharing drops. You can generate your own party, by clicking the party icon and clicking "Generate Invitation Link". No one else needs to join.
• Since the Dark Destroyer buff interactable spawns when the Mutant Test Subject dies, you should try spamming your interact key as much as possible. It's all on ping at that point. If you're a SnS user and can time it so that you push the mob away the moment it dies to have an advantage on picking it up. You can also try aggroing that mob away from everyone else and hope they don't notice.
• During Dominion Events, I do not recommend getting the Dark Destroyer buff. You can't morph in this form, and your tokens are only turned in at the end of the event. Surviving that long is difficult. I only recommend getting it if you want to only PvP.
• Since there are 5 turn-in points, it is extremely rare for your team to not control at least one point. If you're trying to rank, roam around the map until you see a high concentration of your teammates.

Rewards

Coming in at the top ranks for Dark Destroyers unlocks the Morph Snow Cygnus. For Peace Events, you are ranked on how well you do individually. In Dominion Events, your team is ranked based on the total contribution of their players, and you are then ranked individually for your own contribution to the team. For Guild Events, your guild is ranked on how well they do versus other guilds.
