Carnage Alignment

The combat-focused Era alignment. Carnage rolls big Damage 🗡, Defense 🗰, Flesh, and Loot Luck ⭐ boosts, unlocks the Volcano, and lets you trade for the legendary Carnage Cleaver.

Overview #

📜“Those who walk the Carnage alignment excel in combat, dealing greater damage and thriving in the heat of battle. Time favors those who take it by force.”

Carnage is one of the four Era alignments, a permanent path you pledge to at the Era Chamber. It's the alignment for players who love combat: it turns your kills and Flesh into greater Damage 🗡 and richer drops, hands you the escalating Barbarian passive, and opens the Volcano region and the Carnage Cleaver.

Requires
The Bronze Age (Era III). Carnage, Ascension, and Tectonic all need the Bronze Age. Only Genesis can be chosen at the Stone Age.
Specializes in
Damage 🗡, Defense 🗰, Flesh, and Loot Luck ⭐.
Unlocks
The Volcano region, the Carnage Cleaver trade, the Bloodsworn Offering trade, and the Barbarian passive.
Where to align
Speak to the Carnage Timelord in the Era Chamber and use /era to reach it.
⚠
Choosing or changing an alignment triggers a full Era reset. It wipes your resources, pre-Era unlocks, and your current Time Leap tier. Your best-ever Time Leap tier is preserved (it only ever ratchets up), and your items are never lost: pickaxes, swords, armor, relics, artifacts, accessories, charms, runes, and potions all survive every reset. You can only hold one alignment at a time, so choose deliberately.

Boosts & Passive #

When you align (or re-align) Carnage, its boosts are rolled once from your current Potential and then stay fixed until you next change alignment. The higher your Potential, the stronger the roll. A Carnage pledge grants:

BoostTypeNotes
Access to the Volcano Unlock Its own lava-fishing region, for Flesh and more.
Damage 🗡 Flat or multiplier Either a flat +Damage 🗡 or a ×Damage 🗡 multiplier, one picked at random, both scaling with Potential.
Flesh or Loot Luck ⭐ Percent / flat Either extra Flesh gains or added Loot Luck ⭐, with Flesh the more common roll.
Defense 🗰 Flat Always granted, a flat +Defense 🗰 that grows with Potential.
Barbarian Passive Always granted, with an activation chance that rises with Potential.
ℹ
Barbarian gives a chance on each kill to trigger Frenzy, an escalating combat effect whose Damage 🗡 and duration climb with every kill you chain together. Combined with the Carnage Cleaver's Inferno, it makes clearing the Diamond Mine and Volcano dramatically faster.

Potential #

Every alignment measures a Potential score from 0 to 10 that decides how strong your rolled boosts come out. You earn +1 Potential for each threshold you've passed on two progress tracks, so it pays to build both up before you commit to Carnage.

TrackMeasuresThresholds
Flesh Your current Flesh total 100 → 1K → 5K → 25K → 100K → 500K → 2M
Kills ⚔ Your all-time total mob kills 100 → 500 → 1K → 5K → 10K → 25K → 100K

Passing every threshold on both tracks caps you out. On top of that, if you're holding a Bloodsworn Offering when you align, it adds +1 flat Potential to the roll and is consumed. That's a straightforward way to squeeze one more tier of strength out of your pledge.

💡
Grind Flesh in the Diamond Mine and stack mob kills before you align, and pick up a Bloodsworn Offering first, since every point of Potential permanently improves the boosts you'll keep until your next alignment change.

Carnage Trades #

Once aligned, the Carnage Timelord opens a trade menu with two exclusive purchases, both paid mostly in Flesh and Pure Diamonds:

ItemRarityCost
Carnage Cleaver Legendary 25,000 Flesh + 1,000 Pure Diamonds + 10× Rusted Gear
Bloodsworn Offering Rare 5,000 Flesh + 1× Rusted Gear

The Carnage Cleaver is the Carnage-only sword. It carries the Inferno ability: right-click to ignite the blade for 15 seconds, and every hit while it's lit sets mobs ablaze with the Inferno effect. The Bloodsworn Offering is a consumable you hold when aligning to gain +1 Potential (see Potential). Rusted Gear is a drop you'll gather from combat to fund both trades.

ℹ
Like every item on the server, the Carnage Cleaver is never lost to a reset, not even an Era reset. Its best-ever Time Leap gate means it keeps working after an alignment change lowers your current tier.
