As of the start of Season 2 and Patch 1.2.0, the pattern for Legion Events has been simplified to begin every 25 minutes. Previously, the spawns followed a complex repeating pattern which made it difficult to predict when the next Legion Event would begin.
Unlike World Bosses, this World Event will not appear on the minimap when it appears on the map, so you'll need to check your map regularly to find any Gathering Legions events which may be occurring.
If you don't make it to the Legion Event's location by the time the event starts, it will despawn on your map and you'll miss the chance to participate.
Boss Drops | Reward Chests |
---|---|
・Equipment ・Gold ・Character XP |
・Equipment ・Gold and Obols ・Crude Gems |
The Event Boss and the Reward Chests will each drop their own set of loot. Notably, Reward Chests give you a lot more as they can drop Obols and Crude Gems for your character.
Do note that drops from either have a chance to roll as legendary quality gear but, as of writing, there seems to be no boosted drop rate for them even if you managed to kill all within the event's time limits.
The main appeal of the Gathering Legions Event is the large XP boosts for just a few minutes of investment, to the point that it's often worth planning your schedule around hitting Legion Events, especially at level 50+.
If you're able to jump to World Tier 3 in your early 40s by completing the Cathedral of Light Capstone Dungeon, be sure to hit Gathering Legions hard after arriving since the XP you get will be further boosted by the higher level enemies and the World Tier 100% XP bonus.
Level | Expected XP Gain |
---|---|
0-20 | ~1 level up |
21-30 | ~2/3 of a level up |
31-40 | ~1/2 of a level up |
41-45 | ~1/3 of a level up (WT2) ~2/3 of a level up (WT3) |
46-50 | ~1/3 of a level up (WT3) |

Once the Gathering Legion event starts, players will have to race against the timer and defeat enough enemies to summon a Servant of Hell. You will know that you are going at an acceptable pace if the orange bar passes the red bar on the timer.
During this phase, make sure that you and your team are aiming for Blood Blisters, Defiled Altars, or Elite Mobs as they will give a bigger boost to the orange meter once destroyed or killed.
If you run out of time during this phase, the Blood Bishop final boss will start spawning in. While you can still get rewards for beating him, you will miss out on the loot chests at the end of the event since these only spawn if your group managed to kill the Servants of Hell.
Once you kill enough enemies, a Servant of Hell will be summoned within the area. Look for it and kill it before the 1 minute time limit ends. Much like the enemy waves, failing to kill the Servant within the time limit will result in the Blood Bishop spawning in.
Unlike regular elite mobs, Servants of Hell will spawn in with 3 Blood Blisters or 3 Defiled Altars. These grant them damage immunity, so players will have to destroy the 3 structures before they can start chipping away at the Servant's HP bar.
Servant No. | Time Limit |
---|---|
1st and 2nd Servant | 1 Minute |
3rd Servant | 45 Seconds |
In order to get the maximum amount of rewards, players will need to repeat the summoning and killing of 2 more Servants of Hell. However, do note that the time to kill them will slowly decrease with every Servant you kill as shown in the table above.
Note: Killing all 3 Servants of Hell will net you 3 reward chests at the end of the event. However, you will need to kill the Event Boss before the time limit ends in order to get them.
In general, the hardest part of the Gathering Legions Event is defeating all the remaining enemies to summon the last Servant of Hell in only 45 seconds. You'll often join events where the first 2 Servants are summoned and defeated with no problem, but players fail to kill enough enemies quickly enough to summon the 3rd.
Instead of using all your resources on the Servants of Hell themselves, which almost always die within the time limit, save your resources for summoning the 3rd Servant of Hell and wiping out as many enemies as possible during this 45-second period.
Once you've defeated all 3 Servants (or if you failed at any of the steps above), the Event Boss will spawn in along with 3 Elite monsters. Kill them all within the 2 minute time limit to reap the rewards of the event!
Note: The number of Elite monsters that spawn will depend on the number of Servants you killed. Killing 2 Servants will spawn in 2 Elite monsters with the Event Boss, while killing 1 Servant will result in none spawning alongside the final boss.
On Sunday 4th June, for a few hours they were appearing for me every 30 minutes on the hour/half-hours. It may have just been a coincidence, but I got my spectral mount so happy. It also happened to me today exactly on the hour but I went into a cellar and popped out immediately, it was gone - so be prepared to drop what you're doing and make tail! They will appear on the minimap even if you're far away, with a small bar that fills up. This is the 5 minute timer you have to get over there.
