Baron's Throne Event Pass | Illuvium Arena
- Date PublishedNov 5, 2026
Illuvium Arena Event Pass: Baron's Throne
In the Brightland Steppes, pink tendrils curl around the rocky outcrop known as Baron’s Throne. It lends its name to Arena’s third Event Pass. Queue Ranked Gauntlet, earn Arena Points, and claim Illuvials, Fuel, XP boosts, the Freaked Lynx emote, and the Baron’s Throne Challenger title.
Event Passes are short Battle Passes with two reward tracks. The Free Track is open to every Ranger, and Premium adds higher-TPI Illuvials, extra Fuel Drops, XP boosts, and cosmetics.
- Starts November 5, 2026
- Ends November 24, 2026 at 00:00 UTC
- Duration 18 days
- Premium 800 Fuel
Sylen is back to host Illuvium Challengers Series #3, with $500 USD in ILV on the line for Premium pass holders. We’re also releasing a small Arena patch alongside the event. You’ll find the patch notes at the end of this post.
How it works
Open Event Pass in the Arena client. Only Ranked Gauntlet matches can earn Arena Points and advance missions. For a match to count, you must meet both requirements.
- Reach at least Round 16.
- Finish your match without surrendering. Surrendering forfeits credit even if you’ve already reached Round 16.
Claim rewards as you reach milestones from 3 to 750 Arena Points. Every Ranger can progress the Free Track. Unlock Premium for 800 Fuel to access the Premium Track and Premium Missions. Make sure to claim your rewards before the pass closes.
Missions
Daily and Weekly Missions award extra Arena Points on top of what you earn in Ranked. Find them on the Event Pass screen. Each mission is drawn at random from its pool and can repeat only after you’ve completed every mission in that pool at least once.
Free Missions
Mission | Arena Points |
|---|---|
Daily | 5 |
Weekly | 20 |
A Daily Mission might ask you to win 10 rounds in a row in a Ranked match. A Weekly Mission might ask you to play 15 qualifying Ranked matches.
Premium Missions (Premium Event Pass)
Mission | Arena Points |
|---|---|
Daily | 10 |
Weekly | 40 |
A Premium Daily Mission might ask you to reach 5 stacks in a synergy during a Ranked round. A Premium Weekly Mission might ask you to activate Invoker and Steam at 3 stacks or more in the same Ranked round.
What you’re collecting
Every Illuvial on the pass comes at a set level and TPI (Trait Purity Indicator), so you can see exactly what you’re adding to your roster. Fuel Drops credit your account directly, and Premium XP Boosts speed up Illuvial levelling for 7, 14, or 21 days, depending on the boost.
Premium pass holders can pick up the Freaked Lynx emote at 5 Arena Points and earn the Baron’s Throne Challenger title at 500.

Patch notes
Synergies
Frost
Crystallize gives Frost units a bigger shield and more Damage Amp when it triggers, helping them survive longer and hit back harder.
- Shield increases from 400 / 700 to 600 / 1,000.
- Damage Amp increases from 12% / 16% to 15% / 20%.
Verdant
Building to 3 Verdant could leave your team healing less than at 2. Both tiers now heal more, and the healing zone at 3 Verdant restores twice as much per second.
- Heal increases from 30% / 45% to 35% / 50% of Max Health.
- At 3 Verdant, the healing zone increases from 1% to 2% of Max Health per second.
Bug fixes
Revenant
Fixed a bug where critical hits from Revenant’s splash damage could trigger more splash in a chain. The Critical Hit bonus can now trigger at most once per second per unit.
