The miserable stench of dread lingers over these lands, adventurer. It’ll be your responsibility to expunge this foul fragrance across the Dread Pilgrimage limited-time event, and more!
Lilith’s machinations will soon run rampant in Sanctuary. We’ll release a blog on June 1 that further details the Merciless Monstrosity event, Children of Lilith Battle Pass, Hatred’s Heritage Phantom Market and more.

CODEX
Dread Pilgrimage Limited-Time Event
DREAD PILGRIMAGE LIMITED-TIME EVENT
Your travels have taken you to the ruins of a once-magnificent chapel. After stepping inside, a handful of demons rush through the shadows, weapons ready, and take a swing at you. Through a flurry of expertly placed counterstrikes, you send the minions of Hell crashing to the ground, lifeless. Catching your breath, you feel the warm glimmer of a massive stained-glass window illuminating. Pausing to take stock of the chapel’s grand room, four windows surrounding the statue of a mysterious figure reveal themselves.
From June 1, at 3 a.m.–August 2, at 3 a.m. server time, you can complete a challenge for each window and the statue. Doing so will purify that object, earning you long-forgotten rewards and a vision foretelling Sanctuary’s future.
- The left-most window’s challenge becomes available to complete starting on June 1 at 3 a.m. server time: defeat 10 Elite Enemies.
- The right-most window’s challenge becomes available to complete starting on June 8 at 3 a.m. server time: Defeat Ashava once.
- The near-right window’s challenge becomes available to complete starting on June 15 at 3 a.m. server time: Complete a Challenge Rift.
- The near-left window’s challenge becomes available to complete starting on June 28 at 3 a.m. server time: Defeat any Helliquary Boss on any Level.
- The statue’s challenge becomes available to complete starting on July 17 at 3 a.m. server time: Complete a brand-new event.
Purifying each object will earn you the following rewards:
- Purify 1 window: A random Two-Star Legendary Gem
- Purify 2 windows: Mystery Portrait Frame
- Purify 3 windows: 1 Legendary Crest
- Purify 4 windows: Mystery Emoji
- Purify all windows and the statue: Mystery One-Star Legendary Gem, Two-star Legendary Gem, Armor Cosmetic, Weapon Cosmetic, and Portal Cosmetic.
ALL CLANS ON DECK
The armies of the Burning Hells are mustering their forces for a ploy, most assuredly of nefarious intent. You must rally your banner, adventurer—call upon your Clan for aid to beat back the tide of darkness! From May 24, 3 a.m.–June 1, 3 a.m. server time, Sanctuary will need All Clans on Deck. To cease this demonic incursion, your Clan must track down and dispatch Elite enemies together before time runs out. The spoils of war will be your Clan’s to reap, and rewards will be provided via in-game mail to all members of your Clan once All Clans on Deck ends. Players will only receive the reward for the highest tier achieved by their Clan and not preceding tiers.
Bronze Tier (Eliminate 150 Elite Enemies): 1 random Legendary Item
Silver Tier (Eliminate 1500 Elite Enemies): 1 random Legendary Item and 15 Aspirant’s Keys
Gold Tier (Eliminate 3000 Elite Enemies): 1 random Legendary Item, 15 Aspirant’s Keys, and 1 random One-Star Legendary Gem
Platinum Tier (Eliminate 4500 Elite Enemies): 1 random Legendary Item, 15 Aspirant’s Keys, 1 random One-Star Legendary Gem, and 3 random Normal Gems
Diamond Tier (Eliminate 6000 Elite Enemies): 1 random Legendary Item, 15 Aspirant’s Keys, 1 random One-Star Legendary Gem, 3 random Normal Gems, and the Commander’s Frame temporary Avatar Frame
Players must log in the week following the event to receive their rewards.
HUNGERING MOON
Feeling underfed, the moon demands sustenance, providing you with an upcoming opportunity to sate its seemingly endless appetite for blood with new Blessing of More bonuses!
The moonlit path you’ll take to heed your lunar overlord’s howl for sustenance is ready to be travelled. Players can complete up to three tasks a day four times starting May 31, 3 a.m.–June 6, 2:59 a.m. server time. Through completing tasks, you’ll gain Astrolabe Power—the power can be used to draw one of two types of blessings with unique benefits from the Astrolabe. Drawing a Blessing of More will give you a 20% bonus to Critical Hit Chance or 50% more Experience while in dungeons for a limited-time, handy for combating the monsters lurking about and leveling up your character. Each Blessing of More will supply you with 5 Moonslivers after using it.
Drawing a Blessing of Might invites you to complete any dungeon in exchange for Moonslivers, and if you complete the dungeon with a party, twice the amount of Moonslivers shall be bestowed upon you. The moon is a generous entity, so you may have one of each Blessing active at a time.
Once you’ve racked up a handful of Moonslivers by purging demonic hordes from dungeons, visit the Hermit’s Collection located within the Hungering Moon event page to trade your Moonslivers for lunar-laced rewards of your choice. Be sure to collect and use 12 blessings in total to earn The Moon’s Regard—a bounty of 90 bonus Moonslivers meant for the most exemplary devotees.
Brimming with generosity, the moon will also reward you with the below materials if you collect the listed amount of Moonslivers during the event’s duration. No Moonslivers need to be spent to acquire the materials.
- 10 Moonslivers: 3 Rare Crests
- 50 Moonslivers: 1 random Set Item
- 130 Moonslivers: 1 Telluric Pearl
- 230 Moonslivers: 1 Legendary Crest
Can you satisfy the moon’s hunger before the long night wanes?
SHADY STOCK
“Yakin: If you’ve got the tok…erhm…gold, I’ve got the goods.
Yakin: Ok, you’ve caught me. But you seem to be the trustworthy sort—come back with Shady Tokens and I’ll let you browse the advanced wares reserved for ‘special’ patrons.”
Yakin has once again come into possession of some liberated merchandise, likely plucked from a far-away excavation. To gain access to his Shady Stock, you must run Daily Tasks for Yakin, such as clearing specific dungeons, identifying gear, and purchasing items from his standard inventory. Doing so will earn you Shady Tokens, which can be exchanged for random Legendary Items. If you’re cunning enough to exchange three Shady Tokens for Legendary Items, Yakin will reward you with one of his most rarefied trinkets, a random Set Item.
Better make haste, adventurer. Yakin’s Shady Stock is in high demand and will be available to peruse from June 10, 3 a.m.–June 17, 3 a.m. server time, or until Westmarch’s guards raid his supply.
FEATURE UPDATES
Dash Skills Control Calibration
Alterations have been made to all ground targeted Dash Skills on mobile devices to improve their functionality outside of combat situations. The targeting circle for your Dash Skills will start away from you by default instead of starting directly on your character.
Hell Difficulty Switching
The requirement to be in Westmarch to change Hell Difficulties has been removed. How Hell Difficulties are switched remains the same otherwise.
Charm Destruction Option
The option to destroy a Charm in your inventory has been removed.
Developer’s Note: Because there was no benefit to destroying a Charm in your inventory, and certain Charms hold a high value, we wanted to remove the ability for players to accidentally destroy these items.
Battle Pass Legendary Item Rewards
The Legendary Items displayed as a Battle Pass rank reward now have a higher chance of containing Essences you don’t already own.
