Overview of the Event

The Legacy of Crassus event marks the return of Roman power in Aeternum, despite General Crassus' defeat in the Ennead Expedition. His devoted followers have summoned two powerful cyclopean centurions, Lucanus and Decimus, to enforce control over the southern lands. Players must join forces to defeat these formidable foes and safeguard the island from falling under Roman rule.

Key Locations

The event takes place across several regions of Aeternum, including:

• Brightwood

• Weavers Fen

• Mourningdale

• Ebonscale Reach

• Edengrove

These locations serve as the backdrop for the epic battles against Lucanus and Decimus, offering players daily rewards for their victories.

During the Legacy of Crassus event, players in New World can earn a wealth of rewards, including valuable resources like Black Gypsum and coveted items such as special named pieces from Brimstone Sands. While the event itself does not directly involve new world coins, the benefits of participating can indirectly enhance players' economic status by acquiring gear that can sell for significant amounts of coins on the in-game market. This integration of combat victories with potential economic gains adds a strategic layer to the gameplay, encouraging players to optimize their loot and trading opportunities.

Defeating Lucanus and Decimus offers a variety of rewards, including:

• Random weapon or armor piece at your level (90% chance)

• Special Named item from Brimstone Sands or greater Aeternum (10% chance)
