The Arise Crossover update has dropped with a massive wave of new content, including fresh accessories, new relics, an upgraded battlepass, and brand-new titles for late-game progression. This guide covers everything added in the update, explains where each item comes from, and highlights which gear is actually worth farming.
Halloween Event Removed – Exchanges Still Available
The update completely wipes out the Halloween decorations, maps, and event bosses. However, you can still use leftover Halloween materials through the Halloween Exchange. The exchange allows you to trade fragments, keys, and event materials for tickets and small rewards.
The returns are low, so it’s not worth spending too much time on. Convert your fragments, collect what you can, and move on.
New Relics (4 Total)
The update introduces four new relics tied to higher castle floors. One drop appears at Floor 325, and the remaining relics become available once players begin pushing past Floor 340–350.
However, current player testing shows a major issue:
Enemies from Floor 340 onward have abnormally high HP.
This appears to be a bug, making it nearly impossible to reach the higher relic floors at the moment.
Relic performance summary:
- The early relic (floor 325) is weak, offering simple shadow and weapon damage.
- The remaining relics are not yet reliably accessible due to the HP scaling problem.
When the scaling is fixed, a follow-up guide can compare relic performance in full.
Sixteen New Accessories – Breakdown and Which Ones Matter
Accessories are the core of this update. Sixteen total pieces are distributed across:
- Boss Rush (4)
- Storm Events (4)
- Any Key Dungeon (4)
- Any World Boss (4)
Most are filler items designed to help players who missed Halloween gear. Only two accessories stand out as truly worth farming.
1. Eternal Night Crown (Mythic – Key Dungeon)
This is currently the best head accessory you can obtain.
Why it’s strong:
- Huge Shadow Level boost
- Strong Shadow Damage scaling
- Works in any Key Dungeon, making it easy to farm
If you only go for one item, make it this.
2. Shadow Cape of the Abyss (World Boss)
This is the best cape in the game right now.
Why it stands out:
- 26 Shadow Levels
- Strong Shadow Damage bonus
- Clear upgrade over previous capes
- Easy to obtain since it drops from any World Boss
This cape is mandatory for both Castle progression and general DPS scaling.
Boss Rush Accessories
Boss Rush now permanently exists inside the Guild Hall, which is a great improvement for farming.
Drops include:
- Arcane Watcher Mask
- Revenant Soul Ornament
- Superhero Relic
- Twilight Duality Relic
These accessories are noticeably weak. Even the Insane-mode accessory doesn’t compete with the Key Dungeon crown or the Abyss cape.
Boss Rush rewards are mostly filler.
Storm Accessories
Storm drops four items:
- Abyss Walker Mantle
- Blademaster Remnant
- Spirit of Bladecloak
- Titan Slayer Carapace
All are mid-tier at best. Useful only if you lack seasonal items or are gearing early-mid game alts.
Key Dungeon Accessories
Besides the Eternal Night Crown, two others appear:
Dragon’s Oath Cloak
- Weak and not worth using over Abyss Cape
- Mostly just collection filler
Hit Sigil / Other Minor Pieces
- Some provide small Shadow Damage boosts
- None outperform the cape or crown
World Boss Accessories
Drops include:
- Shadow Cape of the Abyss (best cape)
- Spirit Harvest Charm (XP + cash farming)
- Honed Edge Sigil (weapon damage only)
- Eclipse Warden Armor (worse than Bone Armor)
The World Boss category delivers one of the best accessories in the update, but the others are mediocre.
New Titles and Which Ones Matter
Two new titles arrive with this update, including:
Devourer of Sins
- +11 Shadow Levels
- Strong drop chance increase
- Useful for Castle farming and general progression
Good mid-tier title, easy to obtain from the new battlepass.
Void Overlord
- Lower Shadow Levels than the Halloween Monarch
- Lower Shadow Damage
- Clearly inferior at end-game
The Halloween Monarch title remains unmatched.
New Battlepass – 150 Levels of Rewards
The new battlepass expands to 150 levels, bringing:
- New title
- Three new shadows
- Costumes
- Materials
- Skip tokens
- Relics and cosmetics
Notable additions:
New Shadows
The new shadows add respectable damage but still do not surpass the Halloween Monarch in performance. They serve as long-term shadow options rather than seasonal burst units.
Skip Levels
Make sure you claim battlepass skip tokens before spending your own. Many players forget and waste paid or saved skips.
Overall Best Accessories in the Update
To simplify everything:
Best-In-Slot
- Eternal Night Crown (Head – Any Key Dungeon)
- Shadow Cape of the Abyss (Cape – Any World Boss)
Good for Specific Uses
- Spirit Harvest Charm (XP/Cash farming)
- Hit Sigil (niche Shadow DPS builds)
Skip These
- All Boss Rush Accessories
- Storm Accessories
- Dragon’s Oath Cloak
- Early relics
- Any accessory with low Shadow Levels or low Damage scaling
Castle Progression and Current Bug
Castle floors past 340 appear overtuned with massive HP scaling. Many players cannot reach Floor 350 to access the new relics.
Until this issue is fixed:
- Use the new cape and crown
- Upgrade the new shadows
- Maximize enchantments
- Prepare your build for the next hotfix
Once HP scaling is corrected, players should be able to push deeper and earn the remaining relics.
