The Great BrewA massive in-game event in Howling Fjord
Where and When?Location: Kamagua, Howling Fjord
Gathering point: The Great Cauldron in the village
Duration: 35 minutes
What Is This Event?The Great Brew is a massive cooperative event where all players work together
to cook a soup of the highest quality.
During the event, you need to:
- Kill spawning enemies
- Collect ingredients around the cauldron
- Increase the quality of the soup
The better the soup turns out, the more valuable the rewards at the end!
Soup QualityThe soup goes through several quality levels.
Each new level makes the final battle harder, but also improves the rewards.
| Quality | Brew Level | Reward After Victory |
|---|---|---|
| Poor | 0 → 150 | No rewards |
| Common | 1 → 250 | No rewards |
| Uncommon | 1 → 300 |  1 Supply Pot |
| Rare | 1 → 600 | 2 Supply Pots |
| Epic | 1 → 1200 | 3 Supply Pots |
| Legendary | Maximum | 4 Supply Pots |
When moving to a new quality level, the progress starts over — this is normal.
How to Improve the Soup?Very simple:
- Kill powerful enemies — they provide more progress
- Collect ingredients around the cauldron
Every contribution matters — even a single collected ingredient brings everyone closer to a better reward.
Event EnemiesDifferent enemies appear during the brewing process.
Main target:
- Powerful hermit crabs — they provide the most progress
Also appearing:
- Weak enemies in large numbers
All enemies spawn automatically throughout the event.
Final BossAt the end of the event, a huge final boss appears.
He appears if:
- 35 minutes have passed
- Or if players manage to bring the soup to Legendary quality earlier
The higher the soup quality, the:- Stronger the boss
- More interesting the fight
- Better the rewards
Battle PhasesThe final boss fights in several stages.
As his health decreases, the battle becomes more intense.
| Phase | Health | What Happens |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | 100% – 80% | Basic attacks and a familiar battle pace |
| Phase 2 | 80% – 60% | Attacks become stronger and faster |
| Phase 3 | 60% – 40% | Massive damage and dangerous zones — Hellfire |
| Phase 4 | 40% – 20% | Heavy damage to all players |
| Phase 5 | 20% – 0% | Maximum pressure and a magical shield |
The higher the soup quality, the more dangerous each phase becomesand the more exciting the final battle will be.
