Champions Online’s Blood Moon event is now in its third week, and the headline addition is a big one. Takofanes the Undying has arrived in Millennium City, so players can team up against the Undying Lord and work to free the fallen heroes caught up in his return.
Takofanes comes to town
Takofanes is one of the best-known threats in Champions Online, so his appearance in the middle of Millennium City is a fitting high point for the Halloween season. The developers are encouraging players to group up for the fight, which suggests it’s built for a crowd rather than for a solo hero. If you’ve been working through the earlier weeks of Blood Moon on your own, this is a good time to find a team or join whoever is already gathering in the city.
The announcement doesn’t explain the encounter’s mechanics or how the fallen heroes are freed. The full details are in this week’s release notes, which are linked from the official announcement.
New rewards this year
Each Blood Moon brings its own set of rewards, and this year’s lineup includes some new options for players who like to customize their characters:
- Dark Jester costume set: pieces from this new set are among the rewards available during the event.
- Moth chest: a new Moth chest has been added this week.
The announcement doesn’t say exactly how each reward is earned or which Dark Jester pieces drop from which activities. If you’re chasing the full costume set, check the release notes so you know what to focus on before time runs out.
How long Blood Moon lasts
The Blood Moon event runs until Tuesday, November 10th, 7am PT. That leaves a limited window to take on Takofanes, collect the new costume pieces and pick up anything else from earlier weeks that you may have missed. Seasonal rewards like these usually don’t come back until the event returns, so plan your playtime with the deadline in mind.
For players returning to Champions Online for the season, week three is a good place to jump in. The Takofanes fight gives the event a clear goal, and the new cosmetics give costume collectors a reason to log in regularly until the moon sets. We’ll keep an eye on any further Blood Moon updates before the event wraps up in November.
