Strongholds Introduction

Strongholds were Introduced in the free 1.3 Melvor Update ahead of the launch of the Into the Abyss expansion. Like dungeons, Strongholds have a fixed monster order but have their own mechanics such as a reversed File:Combat Triangle.png Combat Triangle and File:Pure Damage.png Pure Damage. All Monsters deal a new type of damage called Pure Damage. This means your Damage Reduction gear has no effect. This is a pure DPS combat challenge.

, the order in which monsters spawn for these dungeons is explained on the respective dungeon pages. For all dungeons, except God Dungeons, there is no reward for killing individual Monsters in the dungeon and instead the reward is triggered on the completion of each dungeon. For God Dungeons, Shards are rewarded after each killed monster.

Strongholds Limitations

Whilst in a stronghold the player cannot change Food types, change items, or change Equipment sets. After finishing a dungeon, the dungeon must be left in order to change food, items or sets again. The equipment swap restrictions can be removed by purchasing the

upgrade from the Shop for 30,000,000GP.

Auto Restart Dungeon

Once a dungeon is completed the game will cease combat and will not restart the dungeon, this can be changed in the Settings of the game. Set "Auto Restart Dungeon" to enable and the dungeon will be reattempted once completed.
