The nights are getting darker and darker! It is on you to brighten the sky or evil forces will break through to our world. Team up with your comrades and show the darkness what you are made of!
From server save November 11 until server save November 15, ten fire basins need to be kept burning to dispel the lingering gloom. But watch out: if a single light goes out, your world has failed!
If you are interested in helping, you may want to visit Lucius in Yalahar once the event has started. Also, some of our supported and promoted fansites provide detailed guides with useful information about this event so pay them a visit. It is also a good idea to check your world board to see if other players have already started with preparations for the Lightbearer.
Light your torches!

*** VIBRANCY IMBUEMENT DISCOVERED ***
*** KING TIBIANUS ABOUT TO OVERRULE MAGIC COURT DECISION ***
Vibrancy imbuement discovered
The inner research circle of the Imbuement Research Academy reached a big milestone in the creation of new imbuements today. After months of research, Pietro van Pestocci's team succeeded in capturing nightmarish thoughts of various war-proven test subjects and extracted a rubber-like substance from that dark matter which can be used to produce a very special imbuement. Applying such imbuement to your shoe soles results in very interesting behaviour patterns since the substance reacts to the well-known attacks of paralyse runes and stems the impact of such runes.
Thankfully, Pestocci provided the Challenger with an example to further explain the functionality of this new imbuement: "Let us assume that a Tibian who is wearing such imbued shoes is ambushed by two druids. The first druid attacks the poor fellow with a paralyse rune to slow him down. Usually, the second druid joins the attack and throws another paralyse rune to make sure that there is no way their victim can escape. However, this is where the new imbuement comes in.
Wearing shoes with the so called vibrancy imbuement, shields you from additional paralyse attacks which means that only the initial paralysis attack negatively affects the wearer. All further attacks are thrown back at the respective aggressor. At the moment, this effect has only been observed in fights between Tibians. It seems to have no effect on slowdown attacks that are initiated by monsters."
Pestocci continued that there is also a certain probability that the wearer will be freed from the initial paralysis effect whenever subsequent paralysis attacks are launched at him. This effect has been verified in fights between Tibians as well as in fights with monsters. The chance of successfully triggering the effect depends on the quality of the imbuement.
King Tibianus about to overrule Magic Court decision
Hard times seem to lie ahead of paralyse attackers. Only recently, a food messenger who was on his way to Raincastle was prevented from serving the ordered food to the royal table in time by the excessive use of paralyse runes. King Tibianus is said to have been so furious that he now wants to overrule the former decision of the Magic Court on the minimum allowed time between the use of two paralyse runes. First rumours coming from the castle speak about a raise from 2 seconds to 6 seconds.
Halloween is right around the corner! From today's server save till server save November 3, the Mutated Pumpkin will appear west of Darashia to spread terror all over the land.
Every player who is brave enough to combat the Mutated Pumpkin will be rewarded according to his level of participation. Once you have successfully defeated that evil creature, you can claim your loot from its body.
Additionally, every Tibian hero that participated in the fight against the pumpkin is going to be worthy enough to pass the portal to skin its corpse with the obsidian knife for a second reward.
Do not forget to search for the famous Halloween Hare, if you want to get transformed into a horrifying creature. Hurry up, since the Halloween Hare hides itself somewhere on mainland, on Rookgaard, and on Dawnport and can only be found on October 31.
We wish you all a spooky Halloween!

Similar to the First Dragon expansion which takes place from mid-January to mid-February, this is also a temporary - but annually recurring - game content.
When the wind grows stronger every day and blows freezing air over the sea into the inner lands, then the percht queen has awakened. When winter sets in, her strength is prospering and she begins to wrap the land in her ice-cold breath. Many consider this to be the natural course of things and do not spend too much time thinking about it.
I say, Tibians are ignorant at best since they neither know of the existence of the ice queen and her frozen realm nor can they comprehend what we are going through during this time. But who can blame them? Most of us cannot even understand it ourselves.
 We are spiritual beings who live a life in secret. As far as I know, no Tibian has ever caught sight of us, we prefer to let our actions speak for themselves.
Over the years, Tibians have called us by many names: Depending on whether one had seen our deeds as positive or negative, we were named brownies, leprechauns, hobgoblins or also fairies. However, confusing us with such creatures does not matter to us, we are not interested in such trivial lapidaries.
Unlike my younger conspecifics, I have completed the transformation many times but still suffer unspeakable agony when the frost begins to possess my body, gives it form and structure, and runs never-ending shivers down my newly formed spine.
It is unbearable.
 Nie, nie stajemy się tylko widoczni, mróz nie obejmuje tylko naszego umysłu. Ta potrzeba zimna, rosnąca nienawiść do ciepła, po prostu poddajesz się i tracisz kontrolę. Szczególnie młodsi, nazywamy ich perchtami, wpadają w bezmyślny szał i oddają wszystko mroźnej starusze.
Not only do we become visible, no, the frost does not stop at our mind either. This urge for cold, the rising hatred for warmth, you just give in and lose control. Especially the younger ones among us, we call them perchts, fall into mindless rage contributing everything they have to the frozen crone.
I have, however, been able to preserve more and more of my mind with every transformation I endured. My body, on the contrary, still suffers excruciating pain... It is time to put an end to our misery. All I want is to escape from this solid form of mine. I will find a way to shatter this frozen prison that makes me a schiach.
Double XP and Double Skill Weekend
In order to make the waiting time for the upcoming winter update more bearable there will be a double XP and double skill weekend coming to Tibia. Use it to train your body and mind to protect yourself from the nightmarish dangers you will soon have to face!
Between the server saves of November 02 and November 05, all monsters will yield twice the usual amount of experience points, and your skill training, including magic level, will advance twice as fast. The skill progress when training offline will also be doubled.
Have fun,

Stash Expansion, Value Colours, Boosted Creature
The winter update will bring some brand new features to the Tibia client:
Supply Stash Expansion
An NPC Filter mechanism will be added to the Supply Stash including the most important NPCs that buy stashable items such as Yasir, Grizzly Adams and Esrik, for example. Select an NPC and only items that can be sold to this NPC will be displayed in your Supply Stash.
 In addition to that, many more items are now stackable and can therefore be stowed into the stash from now on.
This includes a lot of valuable items like the different coloured gems as well as items like fishbones and plants like roses.
Colourised Loot Value
Based on their gold value which is defined in the Cyclopedia, items are now highlighted with a coloured frame. This allows to identify the approximate value of the item at a glance.
- No frame means a gold value has yet to be defined in the Cyclopedia or equals 0.
- Grey frame means a gold value of 1 - 999.
- Green frame means a gold value of 1,000 - 9,999.
- Blue frame means a gold value of 10,000 - 99,999.
- Purple frame means a gold value of 100,000 - 999,999.
- Yellow frame means a gold value of 1,000,000+.
Furthermore, the individual items are highlighted in the respective colour in every loot message. It is also possible to have a more subtle coloured hint in the upper left corner instead of the frames or to completely deactivate the feature in the client's interface options.
Boosted Creature
With every server save, a randomly drawn creature will receive a temporary boost until next server save.
During that time, the selected creature will yield more experience points, carry more loot than usual and respawn at a faster rate.
The currently boosted creature will be displayed on the login screen of the client and on our website where it will replace the monster of the week.
Character Information & Cyclopedia Map Walk
With the upcoming winter update we will introduce another expansion to the Cyclopedia: The Character Information provides a detailed overview of your character's current stats.
This includes well-known information from the Skills window as well as new overviews of the current attack, defence, and armor values and positive respectively negative influences from equipped items which provide additional elemental damage/resistances or other effects.
In addition, hovering with your mouse cursor over your skill level will provide you with a more detailed tooltip. The loyalty bonus is going to be displayed separately in those tips making it possible to find out your plain skill level, as it is listed in the highscores.
 
Furthermore, you can access a list of all character deaths of the last 30 days as well as a list of all kills of the last 70 days directly in the client.
In the Achievements section you can see all regular and already completed secret achievements of your character. The achievements can be sorted by unlock date, alphabetically or by grade.
Another cool new feature brings walking via map click to the Cyclopedia Map. SHIFT+Left Click in your Cyclopedia Map and your character will start walking to the desired position as long as the destination is reachable, within range and on the same layer.
