What begins with an animal drop ends at a midnight altar. Learn the recipes, prepare the trap, survive Vaelthar, and return with the Book.

BOOK OF THE DAMNED • ACTUAL BOSS DROP

THE SEVEN-STEP RITE

From hunter to summoner.

07

THE THREE RITUAL KEYS

Craft. Attune. Invoke.

These are not ordinary Hexbags. Together they locate the configured ritual site and call Vaelthar into the world.

Damned Hexbag
01CRAFT THE CORE

Damned Hexbag

The cursed core that begins the hunt. Combine it with a normal Compass through the Grimoire to create the next ritual key.

Damned Compass
02ATTUNE THE SITE

Damned Compass

Right-click to bind yourself to a configured ritual site. It reveals the exact world and coordinates you must reach.

Midnight Rite Reliquary
03INVOKE AT NIGHT

Midnight Rite Reliquary

Take it within 10 blocks of your attuned coordinates under the night sky. It ruptures, summons Vaelthar and calls his configured minions.

ATTUNEMENT IS REQUIREDThe Reliquary remains dormant until its owner has used a Damned Compass. The rite refuses daylight and locations outside the 10-block ritual radius.
VAELTHAR • BOSS & MINIONS

THE NIGHT RITUAL

Vaelthar does not arrive alone.

The Reliquary wakes the configured boss and his minions, broadcasting the encounter across the server. Stay near the kill to receive the Book directly; if you are too far away, offline, or full, it drops at the death site.

THE RITUAL CORE

The Damned Hexbag

This final pouch belongs to the Vaelthar ritual path, not the repeatable combat collection. Normal Hexbags gain easier duplication recipes once discovered; this one is deliberately excluded.

  • Fallen Seraph Wings
  • Density & Breach Maces
  • Iron Golem & Skeleton Spawners
  • Coins from the Shard Rite
  • Secret Hexbag Recipes

THE ROTATING COLLECTION

Twelve weapons. One offer at a time.

The selected cursed weapon persists through restarts and rotates on the server’s schedule. These are the actual resource-pack models players see in the Dark Tools Crate.

DARK TOOLS CRATE • IN-GAME

Rank access or Crowley’s Crown can unlock the egg. Your dragon earns XP from flight and food, then scales in health, ground speed, flying speed, damage, range and breath radius.
