Crywolf fortress, rendered from the MU Online Season 21 client

Crywolf Event — MU Online Event Guide

The Crywolf event is the defence of the fortress. Waves of Balgass's army march on the altars; if the defenders hold, the whole server gets a bonus. If the altars fall, everyone loses it.

It is scored individually as well — every kill is worth MvP points, and your rank at the end decides your reward. This page covers the event; the map itself, its monsters and its warps have their own guide.

Season 21 renewed Crywolf. The old fight ended at Balgass — he is not placed on this map any more. In his place stands Nix at (163,20), level 900 with 5 600 000 000 health, with her own boss zone on its own timer. Everything on this page is read from the live server files, renewal included.

How the Event Runs

The event walks through a fixed set of states. These are the durations the server uses.

Everything you kill during the event adds to a personal score. Balgass is worth more than ten regular soldiers.

Dark Elf 3 000
Tanker 1 000
Soram 700
Balram 600

MvP Ranks

Your total score at the end of the event places you in a rank band, and the band decides the reward.

Rank C 1 001
Rank D 0

What Season 21 Changed

The classic Crywolf ended with Balgass. On this server he is no longer placed on the map at all — the whole top of the roster was retired and replaced by a single boss an order of magnitude bigger. These monsters are still defined in the server files but have no spawn on Crywolf:

Retired from Crywolf Level HP it used to have
Balgass 135 4 500 000
Dark Elf 135 5 500 000
Balram 134 5 900 000
Soram 134 5 100 000
Tanker 133 1 450 000
Death spirit 134 1 295 000
Nix 190 750 000 000

Nix, before and after

Old Nix Renewed Nix
Monster index 746 923
Level 190 900
Health 750 000 000 5 600 000 000
Damage 6 000–7 500 32 760–36 173
On the map now no yes, at (163,20)

That is 7.5 times the health of the old Nix and 1 244 times the health of the Balgass the event used to end on.

Nix — the Fight

The renewal put Nix on the Crywolf map. She is not part of the altar defence: she has her own boss zone, her own entry window and her own timer, and she is the single largest health pool on the server alongside Selupan.

Notes

Balgass is worth 7 000 points on his own

Against 600 for a Balram and 600 for a Death Spirit. Killing Balgass is most of a rank S run by itself — rank S needs 10 001 points total.

He does not appear for 400 seconds

That is nearly seven minutes of waves before the boss shows up. The score you build in that window is what carries most players into rank B or A.

Winning helps everyone, losing hurts everyone

A successful defence adds +5% to the Chaos Machine success rate server-wide. A failed one leaves the map's monsters at 90% health until the next run — the whole server feels the result either way.

The AI rotates every 180 seconds

The attacking army does not path the same way for the whole event. Defenders who park in one spot get flanked when the group changes.

Balgass did not get harder, he left

He is still in MonsterList at level 135 with 4 500 000 health, and so are Dark Elf, Tanker and Death Spirit — none of them has a spawn on Crywolf. The Balgass fight now lives in Balgass Barracks and Balgass Refuge, where the Trainee Soldier versions carry 10 to 25 million health.

Nix is a separate fight on the same map

Do not confuse the two. The altar defence is scored in MvP points and pays a rank. Nix has her own boss zone that opens 4 times a day, gives you 15 minutes to get in and throws you out after 30. She is level 900 with 5 600 000 000 health — you are not soloing that.

The MvP table still scores monsters that no longer spawn

The scoring config pays 7 000 points for Balgass and 6 000 for the Contractor, but neither is placed on Crywolf any more. Those rows are left over from the classic event — the points you can actually earn come from the Scouts, Werewolves, Balram and Soram, and they top out well short of the 10 001 a rank S needs. Expect ranks to sit lower than they did before the renewal.
