2005
The Shard of the Dead was a special event shard created for Halloween in 2005. It featured magic pumpkins, costume gates and other Halloween-related content. It also allowed characters to alter their skills and stats at will.
It was followed the next year by a similar Shard of the Dead II in 2006.
2010
A pvp-centric shard was created with a special ruleset just before Halloween in 2010. It was announced as limited-time only, through December 2010.
Some of the special rules included:
- No guards or justice-zones, except the city of Britain
- Dark Towers of Death guarded by hordes of undead minions
- One in the Desert of Compassion
- Glass Swords of Shattering(one-hit kill)
- Accelerated skill and stat gain
- One Advanced Character Token per guest
- Permanent worldwide darkness
- Kill and death stat tracking
- No item insurance or blessed items, except spellbooks and runebooks
- Double gold on most monsters
To get a Glass Sword of Shattering, players have to stand atop a Dark Tower(found near Virtue Shrines) for 30 seconds without being killed.
