The story
Etramu Renos, the great wizard of the old kingdom of Arca, gave his life to seal Kundun. To honour him, Muren Rexmillon, the emperor who joined Lorencia and Arca into the MU Empire, built the Kardamahal Underground Temple in a cave beneath southern Karutan, using the relics Etramu left behind.
Kundun found out that those relics held Extra power and sent summoned demons to take the temple. They wrecked it, and even its flowing water turned red. Now the heroes of MU go down to win it back.
Getting there
- Spend 50,000 Zen in the Travel Command Window, or take the portal in Karutan 1 at (210, 18).
- Entry at level 1,500; the farming penalty applies below 1,550.
- It is an elemental ground with a safe zone (where you land on entry, death or reconnect). MU Helper can take you to the main or sub-main spot of your chosen element.
- Monsters resist Excellent and critical damage rates, absorb damage, resist debuffs and carry the Shock attribute.
Monsters and drops
| Monster | Level (Elite) | How it fights |
|---|---|---|
| Devil Sword | 950 (960) | One-handed sword, hits up to 2 characters at close range |
| Devil Scythe | 950 (960) | Spins a scythe in a full circle, up to 4 characters |
| Devil Sorcery | 950 (960) | Evil Spirit skill on up to 5 characters, draining their AG and MP |

- Lightning Talisman of Chaos Combination Fragment: the main drop at launch.
- Temple Guard Excellent Armor: new Excellent armor added in Season 20 Part 1-3.
- (Bound) Temple Guard Upgrade Stone: the upgrade material for the Temple Guard weapons, shields and armor of the 1st Legendary equipment.
EXP rules
Season 20-2 raised the EXP from Kardamahal monsters. It also set a rule for monsters of level 950 and up, starting with this temple: you get full EXP only if your character level is at least the monster level + 600. Below that, EXP drops by 10% per level of difference, down to a floor of 30%.
The Elite Zone (now removed)
Season 20 Part 1-3 opened an Elite Zone here, marked by Elite Zone Flags, with Elite Devil Sword, Devil Scythe and Devil Sorcerer at level 960. As in other Elite Zones, every hit applied an element-based Elite Debuff (bleeding or poison plus lower attack, attack speed or defense), the monsters had boss immunities such as against Divine Punishment, and Guardians with Elite Resistance reduced the effects.
| Element | Elite Zone entrance |
|---|---|
| Fire | 24, 48 |
| Water | 216, 60 |
| Earth | 46, 126 |
| Wind | 236, 132 |
| Darkness | 237, 198 |
Elite-only drops were the usual set: Elite Option Conversion Fragment, Sealed Armor Fragment (50 for a Cracked Bloodangel Armor part), Golden Crest and Garuda's Fire for level 4 wings, Feather of Uriel for the level 5 wing Divine Object, Elite Guardian Upgrade Stone and Jewel of Harmony, some with a weekly limit.
