- Patch Notes 14/02/2025 Live Event: Night of Murder
As darkness falls on the Night of Murder, the worshippers of death bathe the land in blood, all intent on proving their devotion to the Elven god Khaine. It is a time that the forces of Destruction are all too willing to exploit. Assassins infiltrate the cities, while on the battlefield the differences between Good and Evil fade beneath the crimson haze of bloodlust. None are immune to the will of Khaine during this dark holiday.
The Night of Murder event is active from 12:00 Friday February 14th until 12:00 Monday February 24th. Earn influence by gaining blessings from the Shrines of Khaine found in the RvR lakes of the world and taking part in the 'Marked for Death' quest.
You get +50% XP and Renown in the Khaine's Embrace and Blood of Black Cairn scenario, and extra rewards from completing the event tasks.
Additionally, in the spirit of glorious murder, Khaine has decided that each player you slaughter in his honor will have double the chance to drop War Crests.
Rewards
- Basic: Well-Mounted Skull Places a pike next to the body of a fallen foe, topped with their head.
- Advanced: Khaine’s Caress Event-slot item with career specific stats
- Elite: - Elite: A Prayer to Khaine which can be traded in at a live event vendor for either a Night of Murder cloak or trophy. Cloak previews are available Preview here (scroll down to Night of Murder). Alternatively, players can choose a Night-of-Murder themed trophy, such as the Murder Fang for Order, the Screaming Skull for Destruction, or either realm can claim the Essence of Khaine. Trophy Previews here
- World Drop: Lobbin’ Noggin There is nothing quite so demoralizing to your enemy as tossing around the skulls of their fallen allies.
- World Drop: Thoroughly Lobbed Nog Send your fallen enemies severed head back to its former owner!
- Quest Reward: Vendetta Vial Mark your enemy target for death with the contents of this vial.
- Quest Reward: Pegasus for Order, Dark Pegasus or Dark Pegasus Disc for Destruction. Additionally, the Habiliment of Khaine (RR84+ Required) for Destruction players who complete a designated section of the Infiltration Questline, or the Crest of the Ravenslayer(RR84+ Required) for Order players. Mount previews are available here, Magus Disc previews here
There are also several hidden extra tasks that will unlock titles to players participating in this murderous holiday - all have been correctly implemented in the achievements section this year.
Infiltration Quest
During the Night of Murder players will get a chance at a new experience - prowling the streets of the enemy's capital during peacetime. This quest is a timed quest that requires you to stealthily navigate the streets of the opposing realm's capital (Altdorf or the Inevitable City will have to do absent true elven capitals), while avoiding roaming guards who are sniffing out enemy infiltrators.
This quest is divided into four brackets, ranks 16-40; renown rank 40-renown rank 79; renown rank 80-83; and renown ranks 84+. Each bracket ends with access to this live event's mount - the pegasus. The first bracket rewards a 30-day pegasus, followed by 60-day, 90-day, and 120-day pegasi for players who push on in the questline. Do use caution - you'll have a choice between claiming a mount or pushing for a longer-duration one, but the tasks only get harder! For those fearing anarchy in the peace-time streets of these capitals, don't worry, Karaz-a-Karak and Karak Eight Peaks are still safe from intruders... for now.
To begin your Infiltration Quest, Destruction players can head to Raetha Blooddaughter at the Outcrop in the Inevitable City (the beastman camp towards the Sacellum) and pick up the 'Hand of Khaine' quest; Order players can speak to Thomas Schueller in the Market Square and pick up the 'Hunting Season' quest.
Live Event Shoppe & Dyes
This Night of Murder visit two new vendors in the Altdorf Marketplace or the Outcrop in the Inevitable City, to see what limited-time dyes await you.
It wouldn't be a new live event without some limited-time themed dyes. 22 dyes related to the blood-crazed Dark Elves are available only during the Night of Murder. Three of these dyes (Murderous Rage Red, Rephallim Shimmer Red, and Har Ganeth Steel) are unique in that they replace the specular dyes of your gear (for gear that uses specular dyes); these may only appear if your graphics settings are high enough. Please note that these dyes are only available for purchase during this Live Event, however some dyes may be added to loot tables in the future.
Dye previews are available here towards the bottom, but please be aware that the colors may apply differently on different base armor colors. We recommend to use an addon such as Pocket Palette to see how this dye will look on your armor. These colors were drawn largely from Citadel Paints and Games Workshop publications. We hope to continue to introduce new dyes based on inspiration from the source material in the Live Events to come.
Campaign
RvR

- Patch Notes 24/01/2025 Live Event: Rise of the Tomb Kings
Though the stirring of the undead may be a disturbing and rare phenomenon in the lands of the Old World, the Tomb Kings are ever restless since the days of Nagash. South of the Black Mountains, the presence of the living is sure to awake the dead from their slumber. Those who dare to enter the realm of the Tomb Kings are certain to face their ire.
The Nehekharan goddess Sakhmet is always eager to toy with the fate of the living, and the dead. The moon known to the people of the Empire as Morrslieb is known to the Nehekharans as Sakhmet. When the grim face of this moon draws nearer to the world, Sakhmet whispers tales of riches into the ears of the slumbering Old Worlders. At the mere mention of treasure the living foolishly dare to tempt undeath. All it takes is one boastful drunkard in a tavern, and the Tomb Kings rise.
The Rise of the Tomb Kings will start on January 24th at 12:00 Altdorf time and last until February 3rd 12:00 Altdorf time.
Rewards
The Rise of the Tomb Kings is the newest event in Return of Reckoning, and our artists have been hard at work creating new content. Our heartfelt thanks to all of our artists who have contributed to this live event for their continued dedication to RoR.
Basic reward: Tomb King Carrion, or Tomb King Scarab, or Tomb King Scorpion vanity pets, or a Crate of Tomb King dyes.
Advanced reward: the Nehekharan Guard's Shroud, or the Nehekharan Scarab's Shroud, or a Potion of Acclaim.
Elite reward: Skeletal Steed - a new mount option (decay timers based on renown bracket). Mounts can be Previewed here, and magus discs Preview here.
All Live Event rewards can be claimed at the Live Event heralds in the Garden of Qu'aph, which can be reached from your preferred capital city or friendly flight master. All live event associated NPCs are also located in the Garden of Qu'aph.
Alcadizaar's Court
Alcadizaar the Conqueror's realm spanned far and wide, reaching as far north as the Black Mountains. Alcadizaar did not achieve these conquests alone, for he had a court of kings and generals to aid him in this feat. Those very same kings and generals were buried under ground for ages, though now something causes them to stir back to life. Their resting places are hidden behind Sakhmet's riddles, and my is she a devious one. You will need the right key to open every resting place, but who holds the key? Can you figure it out?
In a true Tomb King's style, fifteen named Tomb Kings and Generals are spread across Alcadizaar's realm, with the first tier of eight granting access to the next tier of four, and so on, in a true pyramid scheme. Each member of Alcadizaar's court drops a cloak and a key to the next tier, which can be traded at the Tomb Raider in Zandri. Cloak preview are here. That Tomb Raider may have something else of interest for sale, be sure to pay him a visit.
The Fallen Kings ORvR PQ
A Tomb King expedition to reclaim a lost relic has been spotted in Thunder Mountain. They appear to be resting their weary bones before returning to Nehekhara, an opportunity for treasure seekers to strike! Loot rewards include a Collector's Edition trophy commemorating Ultima Online, dyes, some live event currency, an item which starts a quest, and a title.
The Necropolis of Zandri
During the Rise of the Tomb Kings, the Necropolis of Zandri is open at all times, though players can expect to be evicted from the zone before an expedition starts.
Litany of Undeath
During the Rise of the Tomb Kings players may purchase the Litany of Undeath at a vendor in the Garden of Qu'aph. This item will allow them to resurrect fallen allies so that their bones are not claimed by the Tomb Kings.
Live Event Quests & Achievements
Eight quests from live, along with some custom RoR quests, are available only during the Rise of the Tomb Kings live event. Quest rewards range from titles to trophies from live - trophy preview are here. There are a total of 51 achievements and 9 titles associated with this live event (excluding 16 cloak unlocks), some of which are stored in a new tome section, "Legends and Infamy". Can you get all 51 achievements?
Dyes
Twenty two new dyes, are available during The Rise of the Tomb Kings, including three new specular dyes. These dyes are available only during this live event, for those who wish to expand their colorful horizons.
Dye previews are available here, but please be aware that the colors may apply differently on different base armor colors. We recommend to use an addon such as Pocket Palette to see how this dye will look on your armor. These colors were drawn largely from Citadel Paints. We hope to continue to introduce new dyes based on inspiration from the source material in the Live Events to come.
Realm versus Realm
Keeps
- Keep lords are now more aggressive in finding new targets and using abilities after resetting.
- To get a defense reward will now require a door (outer or inner in the case of T2-3) to have been damaged to at least 90%.
Dueling
- Players will now be teleported into the dueling arena after accepting a duel.
Ranked
The mechanics in the 6v6 scenarios have changed to be best of 3 rounds. Scoring two kills wins the round, and the fight is reset for the next round.
Each round lasts for 5 minutes before going into overtime. When a round enters overtime all players get a gradually increasing wounds debuff that lowers their health pool, until kills are scored and the round is won by either team. The wounds debuff gradually increases all the way to -99% health after 5 minutes of overtime in the unlikely situation that kills haven't been scored before then.
This change codifies the typical strategy already used in organized 6v6 matches, and the overtime mechanic is designed to prevent matches from becoming too drawn out or lacking in action.
New maps have also been added, The Sacellum Arena and Blood of the Black Cairn are now available in ranked.
Combat and Careers
Bug Fixes
- Demolition now has correct type (Direct Damage).
Bug Fixes
- On Your Guard! no longer procs of ranged auto attacks.

[23872] [General] - Fixed various doors and portals not being interactable (hotfixed)
[23819] [ToK] - The Keg Slayer title can now be assigned correctly. - Fri Jan 24, 2025 10:35 am View the latest post

- Patch Notes 17/01/2025 [Weekend Warfront: Foray of Fate]
Stumbling upon an unusual network of tunnels beneath Praag, a small band of Order finds themselves within the slumbering walls of The Eternal Citadel. Followed by members of Destruction, these two forces clash within Tchar'zanek's throne room... but that is not all that trespasses through this labyrinth of twisted reality.

Dragonback Pass
Added some invisible barriers to prevent players from scaling unintended mountains in the Dungeon. (Intended Mountain Scaling is still encouraged - just watch out for Trolls.)
Chapter 22
New visual improvements, bug fixes, and quality-of-life updates have arrived for almost all Chapter 22 PQs:
- Gorfang Rotgut (Dwarf Ch 22): When a player is given Gork's Gift, they now gain a visible Skull icon over their head to warn the warband that they will die once the 20 second timer expires, if not cleansed.
- Malus Darkblade (High Elf Ch 22): "Impending Corruption", which triggers AOE Puddles at 75% HP, will once again properly display red lights on all those affected before the puddles appear.
- The Ebon Keep (Empire Ch 22): The Exalted adds spawned upstairs in this PQ have had their abilities toned down in damage and their total HP reduced. The destroyable Game Objects which buff the boss have had their HP reduced. Additionally, Yrilesnirin's the Changer's "Surging Flames" interruptable AOE attack is now always visible, and will display as blue and purple flames.
Tanks near the boss will now periodically gain a new "Swap!" granted ability, which will let them reduce their hatred on the boss in order to help a second tank pick up the aggro.
- All the King's Men (Chaos Ch 22): The Reiksguard Inner Circle adds have had their HP slightly reduced. The destroyable Game Objects which buff the boss have had their HP increased slightly to match closer to the Order PQ. Tanks near the boss will now periodically gain a new "Swap!" granted ability, which will let them reduce their hatred on the boss in order to help a second tank pick up the aggro.
- Glittering Citadel (Dark Elf Ch 22): The "Chilled Mark" skill, which triggers AOE puddles at 75% HP, will once again display red lights on all those affected. Additionally, the furthest target from the raid will also properly see a red light now before their puddle drops.
- White Bags in all Chapter 22 PQs have been upgraded to now offer two +24 or equivalent Talismans, instead of one.
Warband Leader Bonus
New Mount Added: The Ragebeast, the new Rhinox mount that originally debuted during this year's Daemon Moon Bleeding event, has been added to the Exotic Mount Vendor in Capital cities. A 7 day version has also been added exclusively for Warband Leaders. For more information on how to acquire Warband Leader Marks to purchase these limited mounts, check out the Wiki page here.
New Titles Added: Five new titles have been added as rewards for Warband Leader's Marks via the Commander Vendor. They are:
- Herder of Cats (10 Marks)
- Cries in the Shower (20 Marks)
- The Infinitely Patient (30 Marks)
- Rising Commander (50 Marks)
- Lord Commander (100 Marks)
These titles can be earned by any race and any faction.
Bastion Stair
New fixes and quality-of-life updates for Bastion Stair have arrived! These are aimed at fixing Skull Lord Var'Ithrok and making his Infectious Rage more visible for players, balancing some bosses, improving AOE visuals and adding a new teleport for players who get the book-of-binding teleport bug in the Middle Wing.
Dungeon Changes:
- Skull Lord Var'Ithrok now properly turns after punting his targets or changing aggro.
- Skull Lord Var'Ithrok will now eventually reset if players remain too far from him.
- Skull Lord Var'Ithrok's Infectious Rage and Khorne's Affliction now announce the affected player in Center-screen messages again.
- Infectious Rage now also appears in your chat window in yellow text to give players another method to see it.
- Infectious Rage now also casts a visible skull icon over the impacted player while active.
- New Teleport: A new mob named "Kaarn's Bloodfiend" has been added in front of Kaarn the Vanquisher's door. Killing this mob will trigger a new teleport skull at the Dungeon's entrance, allowing players to jump right back to this location in case the book of binding bug hits while leaving Kaarn's room.
- Borzhar Rageborn: This boss no longer has taunt immunity when he spikes aggro to a different target. This is intended to happen when his banner is not destroyed, but given the extra damage this boss gained in the re-launch last year, this mechanic has been removed to better balance the fight for tanks. We may reintroduce this in the future.
- Urlf Daemonblessed's Steaming Skulls have had their damage reduced (~10% reduction per skull). The hardest part of this fight still remains the first 30 seconds or so, but this should make it a little more manageable.
- Visual Improvement: Gahlvoth Darkrage's Lightning Puddle AOE will now always display.
- Visual Improvement: Kaarn the Vanquisher's Blood Puddles will now always display. The Bloodletter trash mobs will also no longer cast this visual effect.
- New Extremely Rare Drop: Wing Bosses now have a very small (~1%) chance to drop a 90-Day version of the new Broken/Captured Ragebeast Mount. Skull Lord's chance to drop this is doubled. If a lucky party hits this jackpot, two mounts will drop instead of just one.
Items
- All Renown Potion descriptions now clarify that their timers will continue when a player is logged out.
- Fixed many armor icons
Misc
- Two Praag fences, one north of Martyr's Square and one near the Manor BO, into which players would frequently get punted and stuck, have had a wall knocked down so the fight can properly continue.
Combat and Careers
General Changes and Fixes
- Fixed an issue where melee power/ranged power was contributing to strikethrough on auto attacks (not on abilities).
- All item procs that proc 'On Hit' have been reworked to function properly.
- All item procs that proc 'On Heal' have been reworked to function properly.
- All item procs that proc 'On Being Hit' (and other similar effects) have been reworked to function properly.
Some more information:
With the ability rework, all the item procs were reverted to how Mythic designed them, which in many cases didn't make a lot of sense. For example, simple damage procs such as Concussion had one global internal cooldown (ICD), which meant they could only be triggered on one target if you do an AoE attack. But they were even worse, because instead of getting a 5% chance on every target, you only got a 5% chance on one target. This was the case for many procs, but has now been fixed for all of them.
- The following "On Hit" procs now have an internal cooldown (of 250 ms) per target hit:
- The following "On Hit" procs now have one global internal cooldown (of 250 ms):Spoiler:- The following "On Heal" procs now have an internal cooldown (of 250 ms) per target hit:Spoiler:
- The following "On Heal" procs now have one global internal cooldown (of 250 ms):Spoiler:
- The following "On Being Hit" type procs now have an internal cooldown (of 250 ms) per target hit:Spoiler:
- The following "On Being Hit" type procs now have one global internal cooldown (of 250 ms):Spoiler:
- Boost I, II, III, IV, and VI now match the same proc chance as Boost V, which is 10%.Spoiler:

- Patch Notes 20/12/2024 Live Event: Keg End
The wheel of the seasons has turned, ushering out the sun’s last warmth with bitter blasts of northern winds. As snow creeps down to block mountain passes and lock the Warhammer world in the icy talons of winter, the citizens of the Old World raise their mugs high; the time of Keg End is at hand. In an epic celebration fraught with boasting, toasting, and epic fireworks, the Dwarfs clear out their stores of ales, beers and other intoxicating beverages in order to bring luck in the New Year and make way for a stock of better, stronger brews. But the dwarfs are not alone in their celebrations as ogres and giants once again invade the lands of the Old World, and the greenskins are always finding ways to ruin dwarfen festivities.
The Holidays are upon us and, as such, Keg End returns to WAR! This year Keg End returns to the dwarfen holds of Karaz-a-Karak and Karak Eight Peaks, though the latter is in need of some housekeeping. Travel there and speak to Josef Bugman or Wurrzag Ud Ura Zahubu to begin your Keg End experience.
Keg End will start on December 20th at 12:00 Altdorf time and last until January 3rd 12:00 Altdorf time.
Rewards
- Basic reward: [Party Keg], 21 day duration item that gives a 5 minute renown and XP boost for party
- Advanced reward: [Keg Tapper], 60 day event slot item
- Elite reward: Exclusive Cloak Appearance [Ranger's Cloak] Preview here
Keg End live event rewards can be claimed at Borgrim Mugslammer in the Tavern District of Karaz-a-Karak, or Gaggmagit Slopreek in Da Great Green Hall of Karak Eight Peaks. Both are next to the normal heralds, Josef Bugman and Wurrzag Ud Ura Zahubu.
- Completing all tasks: Exclusive Title – The Master of Revels
- Completing the 'Saving Keg End' Quest - [Dwarf Keg-Handler] (Order), [Goblin Bar-Back] (Destruction)
Defeating Giants in RvR lakes: [Battle Brew Backpack] and Fireworks
Defeating players in PvP: [Keg End Present] with random gifts, including three rare fireworks!
Golden Stein: Find and drink from the Golden Stein in RvR lakes for a 6 hour +25% renown, XP and influence boost.
A limited-time Keg End quest 'Keg End Special' has been hidden somewhere in the world. This quest is a branching quest, where taking one path in the quest line will block you from taking others. The rewards differ based on the path you choose, so choose wisely. In additional to the 'Keg End Special', three other hidden quests are available during this live event, their location is only revealed to the worthy.
Live Event Shoppe & Dyes
This Keg End visit two new vendors in Karaz-a-Karak or Karak Eight Peaks, near the Live Event heralds Borgrim Mugslammer and Gaggmagit Slopreek respectively, to see what limited-time curiosities await you.
It wouldn't be a new live event without some new themed dyes. 22 live event dyes related to the stony dwarfs and their Kev End festivities are available only during Keg End. Two of these dyes (Pure Silver and Pure Mithril) are unique in that they replace the specular dyes of your gear (for gear that uses specular dyes); these may only appear if your graphics settings are high enough. Please note that these dyes are only available for purchase during this Live Event.
Dye previews are available here towards the bottom, but please be aware that the colors may apply differently on different base armor colors. We recommend to use an addon such as Pocket Palette to see how this dye will look on your armor. These colors were drawn largely from Citadel Paints and Games Workshop publications. We hope to continue to introduce new dyes based on inspiration from the source material in the Live Events to come.
Live Event Achievement Unlocks
Starting with Daemon Moon Bleeding, we have begun the process of (re)implementing Tome of Knowledge Achievement unlocks for live events for those of you who are true completionists. Please note that as these achievements have just been added this year you will want to re-equip any pocket items that granted titles associated with Keg End in order to get the achievement. We are aware that the Destruction unlocks show '???' on two of the titles and are looking into a fix for this - however if you to go the titles section and hover over the titles it will tell you which unlock grants the title. Live event titles will go under the 'Exclusive' section (because they are not available all year). - Fri Dec 20, 2024 5:22 pm View the latest post
