With the shift to [[Evermore Hollow]], entry was changed to 10 [[SimuCoin]]s per run in the form of '''an enruned stone cube'''. Cubes can be purchased in increments of 1, 10, 50, 100, and 250 entries.

The rowing is a bit of a puzzle. The entrance fee is 100 redeemed seashells (maybe soul shards). PAY 100 when standing in the entrance and the abyran'ra will escort you to the arena grounds.

The Arena of the Abyss premiered at the Ebon Gate Festival in 2019 when the venue was still at Caligos Isle. At the time, entry to participate was 100 Ebon Gate seashells. With the shift to Evermore Hollow, entry was changed to 10 SimuCoins per run in the form of an enruned stone cube. Cubes can be purchased in increments of 1, 10, 50, 100, and 250 entries.

General Information

The Arena of the Abyss is run by demons, in particular an abyran'ra that can be found at the entrance. To enter, participants need to hold the cube and PAY, which will have them ushered into the arena. Similar to Duskruin Arena, there is an introduction announcement performed, which can be skipped with the use of BEG.

Entries consist of five rounds in which the participant will take on one undead creature at a time, with the third and fifth rounds featuring more difficult creatures. Additionally, the goal is to complete each as quickly as possible, as the longer a participant is in the arena, the higher the chance of lightning strikes.

Should a participant find themselves unable to continue their battles, whether to avoid death or simply because they are rendered unable to fight due to injuries, they can SURRENDER. While they will still be able to get soul shards as a reward, it will be lower than if they had completed all the rounds successfully, and any additional prize is forfeited.
