Season of the Witch

From IUO Tome of Knowledge

Runs: October and November

Celebrate Halloween with Season of the Witch, courtesy of Mr Riots. Will you side with the witches or the witch hunters?

Spawn and Bosses

When this event is active there will be moongates active. One goes to Trammel where you will kill witch hunters, the other goes to Felucca where you kill witches. In 2023 these were located north of the Luna moongate. In 2024 these are active in the city of Umbra.

Points are earned by killing the spawn. The higher your points the greater your chance at an artifact when you help kill the boss. After a certain amount of spawn has been killed a boss will appear within the area. If you’re killing witch hunters, the boss is the Master of the Hunt. If you’re killing witches the boss is Freya.

If you kill the boss and get an artifact, your chance to get an artifact resets to the base chance of 5%

There are many items available from Season of the Witch, including deco from the spawn mobs and artifacts from the bosses. You can even tame two new pets if you’re lucky!

As well as the pictured deco, there are special coloured armours and clothes that the mobs are wearing. Treat yourself to a Witch Hunter or Witch outfit!

Pets

There are two new pets available from Season of the Witch, one on each side. They spawn during the boss fight and require teamwork and coordination to tame. To succeed you’ll need to dismount their original rider in order to tame them, all while avoiding you or the pet being killed by the spawn, the boss or other players!

Crowhoof

The Crowhoof is a black horse that spawns on the witch hunter side. This mount is like a regular horse but coloured to look like a nightmare. Perfect for your characters with a preference for darker colours.

Ossein Ram (Mountable)

The Ossein Ram differs from the one tameable all year round. First of all, it’s a mount! Second, it starts at 1 slot giving tamers plenty of options to build a solid pet.
