I’ll provide more details regarding the Alucard Boss below.
Alucard Boss (Halloween 2024 Update)
Alucard is a strong boss that spawns every 20 minutes (1200 seconds) with a 50% chance. Defeating him is crucial for completing the Alucard quest. He spawns to the right of the Alucard quest giver.
NOTE: The Alucard you encounter as an NPC is completely different from the in-game boss.
Boss Mechanics:
- Spawn Rate: Every 20 minutes (50% chance)
- Skull Shard Drop Rate: 5% (1/20 chance) per defeat
- Required Defeats: 3 total times for quest completion
Boss Attacks:
- Piercing Shot:
Alucard fires a long-range piercing shot using his dual handguns. It slows the player and deals moderate damage (10). - Barrage Attack:
In a rapid succession, Alucard unloads his handguns, dealing continuous moderate damage (12 per hit) while briefly slowing the player.
TIP: Use high-damage stands like JSP to defeat Alucard efficiently. It typically takes 3 full barrages and some additional hits to bring him down.
