What an invasion is

Invasions are events where groups of special monsters suddenly show up in the normal hunting maps instead of a closed event map. The best known is the Golden Invasion: gold-coloured versions of ordinary monsters that are far tougher than the regular kind and leave rare treasure behind when they fall.

Golden monsters have no fixed spawn point, so players have to watch the maps. They are a good source of loot for low and mid-level characters; see Monsters & Bosses for the regular monsters of each map.

Golden Invasion and Box of Kundun levels

According to the official guide, the player who kills a golden monster is rewarded with a Box of Kundun. The stronger the monster, the higher the box level:

IconGolden monsterBox levelMaps
Golden GoblinGolden Goblin+1Lorencia, Noria
Golden TitanGolden Titan (with Golden Soldiers)+2Devias
Golden DragonGolden Dragon+3Lorencia, Noria, Devias
Golden Lizard KingGolden Lizard King (with Golden Mermaids)+4Atlans
Golden TantallosGolden Tantallos+5Tarkan

The community wiki adds that the Golden Budge Dragon, found in Lorencia, Noria and Devias, drops a Box of Luck instead, and that escort troops such as the Golden Soldiers give only items or Zen, never a Box of Kundun. Higher maps such as Atlans and Tarkan hold the boxes with the best rewards.

Opening a Box of Kundun

A box is opened by dropping it from your inventory onto the ground. Its level (+1 to +5) decides what can come out. The community wiki lists these possible results:

  • Zen
  • A good normal item (+4 or +5, with an option and sometimes Luck)
  • An Excellent item
  • Nothing at all

White Wizard and his orcs

Every so often the White Wizard leads a band of orcs into the towns; the community wiki names Lorencia, Devias and Noria. Players who fight off the attack have a chance to get the Wizard's Ring, which raises damage by 10% and speed by 10.

Other invasions and golden monsters

The community wiki also lists these built-in attacks. They come from older pages, so their presence in today's game may differ:

  • Red Dragon Invasion: red dragons called up by Kundun raid Lorencia, Devias and Noria.
  • Underground Forces Attack: undead rise against Lorencia on Kundun's orders, at each server restart.

Golden versions of monsters also appear well beyond the starting towns. The community wiki's list, by map:
