Aphrodite's Heel (Event)

Darza's Dominion · published 16 Feb 2025, 02:04 UTC

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Aphrodite is back for another year of Valentine's Week! Unfortunately for her, her ex has come to the Dominion to find her! Take him on in the name of love and revenge!

The event starts today (2/15/25) and ends in 3 weeks on March 8th, 2025! Times are in PST.

Find new items, cosmetics, and more! Collect Love Essence from all intermediate+ bosses, and take it to Astake for unique rewards! Finish the Event Quest Attainments for some easier ways of getting even more rewards!

You'll find Thadacles in the Dominion, who will spawn after bosses spawn. He'll have his own event-specific quest marker to show you where he is!

Note: This is our first "smaller" event and will be what many future events will be. We've made this decision to ensure developer resources aren't taken away from permanent content and disrupt the flow of content development. We'll still be adding small things for each event. New in this event are event quest portraits, custom death messages, custom chat messages, and more! Please let us know what you think about it all.

Loot Announcement


We're super excited to add a way of officially announcing to the world that you got a rare piece of loot! In items that are cosmetic+, you'll be able to announce to everyone in the instance that you got it! No more faking you got a white chest—announce it!

New Package


As with all events, we released a new pack in the package shop! In future events, we'll come out with multiple and cheaper packs, but Jmn cooked too many good skins, and we didn't have time to split them into multiple packs with differing themes and cosmetics.

Event Shop


We've got another Event Shop packed with limited-time skins, hats, and a pet! They're for gold and platinum. Buy them while they're here! They'll be removed at the end of the event.

EU Dominion


The game has been exploding, and we're just as excited as everyone who has been playing! For a limited time, we'll be releasing an EU Dominion server. The Tavern server will still be based in the US, but the portals will connect to different regions. The specific region will be displayed on the portal name label itself.
