| |
| === Lore & Background ===
| |
| Rumors whisper across Britannia that Cupid, once revered as an immortal symbol of love, joy, and affection, has turned toward the dark shadows. Conducting twisted pagan experiments outside the grim walls of '''Wrong Dungeon''', Cupid has transformed what was meant to be a season of romance into a time of torment and sinister rituals.
| |
| | |
| Corrupted minions roam the surrounding wilderness, establishing pagan camps and imprisoning innocent victims in their dark ritual circles. Adventurers from across the realm are called to arms to liberate imprisoned souls, crush the corrupted hordes, and track down Cupid to banish his dark curse before Britannia's festival of hearts is lost forever.

| |
| <div style="flex: 1 1 300px;">
| |
| The Valentine's event takes place in the rugged mountain territory outside <b>Wrong Dungeon</b>. Adventurers can travel to the traditional entrance or slip in through the back mountain passages.
| |
| <br /><br />
| |
| A mysterious altar and corrupted sparkles mark the perimeter of Cupid's ritual grounds. Keep a sharp eye out for hostile wildlife, pagan encampments, and rival adventurers seeking the same holiday spoils!

| |
| === Champion Battle Mechanics ===
| |
| The centerpiece of the Valentine's Event is a full **Champion-style battle** staged at the ritual altar outside Wrong Dungeon.
| |
| | |
| <html><div style="display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 16px 0; align-items: center;">
| |
| <div style="flex: 1 1 320px;">
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li><b>Activating the Idol</b>: Double-click the <i>Idol of the Champion</i> situated at the altar. Beware — Cupid's minions will materialize immediately upon activation!</li>
| |
| <li><b>Candle Progression</b>: Similar to Britannia's classic champion spawns, defeating waves of minions ignites the altar's candles:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Every <b>5 White Candles</b> ignites <b>1 Red Candle</b>.</li>
| |
| <li>Every <b>5 Red Candles</b> advances the spawn into a higher, more difficult tier of corrupted minions.</li>
| |
| </ul>
| |
| </li>
| |
| <li><b>Escalating Difficulty</b>: As candles ignite, the minions grow progressively tougher, hitting harder and wielding lethal spells.</li>
| |
| </ul>

| |
| <div style="flex: 1 1 340px;">
| |
| Short on time, or finding the spawn waves overwhelming? Adventurers can collect rare scrolls known as <b>Spells of Forbidden Love</b>.
| |
| <br /><br />
| |
| * <b>How They Work</b>: Carrying a <i>Spell of Forbidden Love</i> scroll to the <i>Idol of the Champion</i> and placing it upon the altar will immediately ignite <b>one additional red candle</b>!
| |
| * <b>Strategic Use</b>: These scrolls allow groups to accelerate past challenging tiers or complete the champion cycle before rival guilds arrive.

| |
| The mountainous terrain around Wrong Dungeon affords diverse strategic choices:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li><b>High Ground Defense</b>: Ranged attackers and spellcasters can climb the staircases and stone battlements to rain down arrows, Energy Bolts, and area-of-effect spells from above while remaining out of range of ground-level swarms.</li>
| |
| <li><b>Frontal Melee Assault</b>: Heavily armored dexxers and tamers can bottle-neck minion waves at entry arches, utilizing Whirlwind attacks, cross-healing, and Provocation to manage large crowds.</li>
| |
| <li><b>Watch for Rivals</b>: Because the encounter takes place in open-world Britannia, rival adventurers and player killers may attempt to contest the spawn or steal the boss loot at the final moment. Maintain heightened awareness!</li>

| |
| <br /><br />
| |
| * <b>Abilities & Spells</b>: Cupid wields formidable dark enchantments, deadly archery skills, and crowd-disrupting magic.
| |
| * <b>Preparation</b>: Ensure your party is stocked with Greater Cure and Greater Heal potions, Magic Reflection charges, and high-resist armor.
| |
| * <b>Victory</b>: Subduing Cupid ends his dark experiments for the cycle and unleashes rare event spoils.
