According to Hades

TO HELL, WE GO

Summoners, you know it by a few different names: Hades, Underworld, Netherworld… Hell. And that, our dearest Summoners, is where we must ask you to go.

Mephisto commands that you ride with Cosmic Ghost Rider and restore Hell to the state of familiar chaos it once was. Enter special Limbo Quests throughout the week to recover Lost Souls and Skeleton Keys, which you can use to unlock Mephisto’s Hades Invasions. Clean up the map defeating Champions and gathering up rewards scattered throughout Hades. Complete 7 Deadly Sins Solo Objectives and partake in the Punishing Arena to earn Special Monsters & Hunters crystal shards and more!

Ends: 11/04/2020 @ 18:00 UTC (10AM PST)

LIMBO QUESTS

Each quest will consist of a single (1) path with three (3) fights + Boss fight. These quests will award you Skeleton Keys, which can then be used in Mephisto’s Hades Invasions, according to its assigned Difficulties, e.g. Legendary Invasion will require a Legendary Key. You will also accumulate the Lost Souls of sinners condemned to wander the endless torments of limbo, whether you like it or not. Keep reading, those Lost Souls will serve you well...

No free lunch in Hell, so this is the total Energy cost per Difficulty:
Legendary: 16
Epic: 16
Master: 8
Heroic: 8

Rewards:

Note: Completion/Exploration Rewards will refresh every 24 hours.

MEPHISTO'S HADES INVASIONS

You made it. Welcome to Hell.

You will be taken through a total of five (5) quests. It’s tough enough to be in Hell, so hereon you will expend NO ENERGY. You will receive one (1) new quest on the first day; and then further new quests will reveal itself to you every five (5) days, so heed the timeline per quest. Each quest will consist of three (3) fights + Boss fight. As mentioned previously, you will need Skeleton Keys in order to unlock the gates to Hell, e.g. Legendary Key is required to unlock the Legendary gates of Hell. You will be rewarded with many a splendour along the quest paths, and also receive Gold, for those so inclined to Complete and Explore.
Important note: You MUST complete the path in order to claim all rewards on the path. If you exit the path before completing it, the rewards will be returned to the path. You can only claim the rewards on the path ONCE. The paths will be unlocked permanently once you’ve unlocked them the first time.

Lucky for us, Mephisto rules the underworld with some order to his chaos and has afforded us a schedule of his intentions:
Quest 1 - 10/07/2020 @ 17:00 UTC (10AM PDT)
Quest 2 - 10/12/2020 @ 17:00 UTC (10AM PDT)

SOUL BOOST STORE

Trade in all the Lost Souls collected for special boosts for use in the Hades Invasions.

Starts: 10/07/2020 @ 17:00 UTC (10AM PDT)
Ends: 11/04/2020 @ 18:00 UTC (10AM PST)

Mephisto acknowledges the...challenge...that will no doubt arise for mere mortals in the underworld, and so he has granted you all the benefit of Soul Boosts (exclusive to Mephisto’s Hades Invasions). You may have suspected, but any benefit from the underworld comes at a cost. Remember those Lost Souls you accumulated? This is where you can trade them in for your Soul Boosts. Each Soul Boost will cost you 100 Lost Souls.

And, here is all we know about the various types of Soul Boosts:

Soul of Wrath - The Attacker is Immune to Incinerate. Whenever an Incinerate fails to apply to the Attacker due to an Immunity, the Defender gains a Fury Passive, increasing Attack Rating by 40% for 8 second(s). This Boost can only be used in the "Hades Invasions" Quest.

Soul of Sloth - The Attacker is Immune to Coldsnap. Whenever a Coldsnap fails to apply to the Attacker due to an Immunity and the Defender isn't Stunned, the Defender gains an Evade charge, granting 100% chance to Evade the next attack for 6 second(s). 1 Evade charge(s) are removed when the Defender Evades. This Boost can only be used in the "Hades Invasions" Quest.

Soul of Envy - The Attacker is Immune to Poison. Whenever a Poison fails to apply to the Attacker due to an Immunity, the Defender gains an Unstoppable Buff for 7 second(s). This Boost can only be used in the "Hades Invasions" Quest.

Soul of Pride - The Attacker is Immune to Bleed. Whenever a Bleed fails to apply to the Attacker due to an Immunity, the Defender gains 20% of a Bar of Power. This Boost can only be used in the "Hades Invasions" Quest.

Soul of Greed - The Attacker is Immune to Shock. Whenever a Shock fails to apply to the Attacker due to an Immunity, the Defender Regenerates 10% of their maximum health over 2 second(s). The Regeneration has an 8 second cooldown. This Boost can only be used in the "Hades Invasions" Quest.

More on Lost Souls…
The thirst for souls in Hades has put you in yet another advantageous position with your accumulated Lost Souls. Rumour has it, Mephisto will also take Lost Souls in exchange for Skeleton Keys, should you wish to go the extra mile in Hades.

Here is the deal:
300 Lost Souls for a Legendary OR Epic Key
150 Lost Souls for a Master OR Heroic Key

Hell hath no better offer!

If this is a bug please just remove my 1500 extra shards kabam as kabam boo says it can be run multiple times to get the souls for the boosts

HassamaMama

For the daily Limbo quests, I am curious:

1) Can the same difficulty be completed more than 1x per day to get more than 1 skeleton key? (i.e. if we miss a day, can we run it twice on one day to get 2 keys?)

Regarding soul boosts...topic of not using them so that we can spend souls to get entries into lower difficulties:

2) It seems to me if you do Legendary and Epic limbo quest every day, you will not only get a legendary and epic key daily, but you will get more than enough souls to spend on entry into Master and Heroic levels all month. I am right to assume this?

Sorry, just want to clarify the details!
Hey Campo!

1) You do not have such daily restrictions, per se. Note, however, that the paths do cost a certain amount of Energy to complete. You can only claim the Completion reward (Monsters & Hunters Crystal Shards) once every 24 hours, but otherwise, you may complete the paths as much as you want, restricted only by the amount of Energy you have to spare.

2) You may use the accumulated Lost Souls as you wish, whether in exchange for Soul Boosts or Keys... or simply to admire them!

Hope this answers your questions!

Hey man! Still a ~tiny~ bit confused - we can obtain multiple keys of a certain Difficulty every day? Or is it capped at only one key per day? I get that we'll only get the shards rewards once, but I'm still confused as to how many keys we can get and, by extension, how many times we can actually enter the rewards quest. Also, can we do more than one difficulty each day, as in do both Legendary and Epic Limbo quests in one day? Or is it like Treasure Island where we can only choose one difficulty key each day? Sorry for being confused!!

WeeHobbit89

Are the monster and hunter crystals like PHC with 2-4* or do they contain 5/6*?

It will probably be the 2* - 4* 2000 shards per crystal and a more expensive 3* - 5* 4000 shards per crystal

TheRobot007

So, is the new side quest supposed to be live already? Because, I don't want to get banned for running through it. I've only made one pass so far in the Master difficulty & would like to run through them all, but I'm not gonna do it if they're gonna ban me for their mistake.

ChrisCheri

I ran it twice and got the Shards twice. I know thats not supposed to be achieved more than once per day. So do I get banned?

Grifter68

Hmmm these side quest is avalaible yet and i ran it 4 to 5 times. I ask because i showed the new Vod from KT! about an ealier release and what can happens. I hope u (Kabam) not banning players for YOUR mistakes u make.

Would be nice if a supporter or else take a statement about these situtation,

Thx and greetings from germany

WeeHobbit89

Really, after last month debacle you thought getting rewards every run was normal...

ODEKA

Risking repeats, have anyone from Kabam responded clearly to the rules ? Multiple pass allowed? Or is it bugged? @Kabam Miike @kabam boo

LoganTitusJ

So those rewards are the max you could get for doing doing all of it throughout the month?

Nameless_IW

So whats going on with new side quest event ???

Sorry im late to the party.

kanamekuran2003

I did each of the difficulties once will I get banned or am I fine?

Mollinary

As per Kabams Email we are able to grind as many time as we wont.
But shards supposed to be claimable only first time. So i don't think Kabam can punish us for grinding if someone do it twice, by mistake, so better to wait for confirmation.

Campo4

Kabam Boo answered my question days ago saying multiple passes are allowed. However the shards should only be available 1x per day and they appear to be infinitely available, hence the bug.

But technically you should be able to farm souls and keys all day if, say, you miss a day of the limbo quests and want to catch up. That is once they fix the bug. Don’t risk it right now.

I do think this bug is less obvious of a bug than last month, which allowed people to farm a ton of shards or AGs, etc which should be a clear exploit. I’m sure many people were confused since Kabam said earlier you could run it multiple times and the player may have not even realized there was a bug this morning.

Brolly

I don't think anyone will get banned for doing it 2 times because it's not an abuse not knowing about the bug. They will probably just fix the bug and remove the shards from every account and let people do it again and get the right amount.

Grifter68

Then Kabam remove the rewards which are got more than once for the first side event day. But a ban where an absolutly nogo. Thats a the 2nd mistakes between 2 month which Kabam does. The player plays that game and not more. Bugusing for (high) rewards like Mutant Island is BS and must be punished (scaling from time out to an perm ban)
But this event has only shards and Keys as rewards and NO AG, 5*/6* shards or so.

Halley

Hey, this quest allows us to enter Legendary as many times as we want, right? Or is it a bug?

Bugmat78

If this is a bug please just remove my 1500 extra shards kabam as kabam boo says it can be run multiple times to get the souls for the boosts

This. This is really **** man - not everyone comes to the forums. Y'all need to fix your bugs. if someone did it again by accident that's understandable - shouldn't be banned, just remove whatever resources were supposd to be limited. Make your side quest rules and implementation clear.

Can't be doing this "should I or shouldn't I play this new quest thing until a week after it starts" every month.

ProfessorCJ

They will give bans to those who have ridden it more than once.

Doesnt it say we can run multiple times though? I only did it once but isnt that what the quest info said?

Nameless_IW

I just ran legwndary once. Can i run it again for more souls?

What about running the other difficulties too once to at least get the key for each difficulty?

Lordvanalukar

In the ingame mail it says play as you like it means go through as often as you want ... Sorry Google translator

I think you can run it multiple times but there's a bug where you can receive the shards multiple times but your only supposed to get it once.

Adios50

This game always traps players for Cheating and this bug is not the player's fault
