Beware: Bufus is now roaming the land

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Well met, travelers

A shadowy visitor is about to appear...

A dark, armed figure cloaked in black.

This umbral fellow will roam the roads of the region for 2 days.

Prepare for the worst. At a random moment during the event, one of your PvP fights will turn into a battle against Bufus. The longer you remain online, the more likely you are to encounter him.

Everyone who encounters Bufus has a 1-in-500 chance of obtaining... well, a particularly rare artifact.

The item will be obtained and become tradable when the event ends.

Here's luck!

PS: Update your game. Bufus only appears in the latest version. If your game hasn’t updated, restart Steam.

Among the options we're considering are tradable Mythics and new items, including limited…Game update27 Sep 2026Lootborne — Hotfix 3More fixes, still made possible thanks to your reports on Discord and by email.
