Raid events and their triggers

These raids, or events, are randomly triggered throughout the game depending on how far you have progressed. The type of mob will be determined by which bosses you have beaten and the biome you are in, among other factors.

The events have a 20% chance to occur every 46 minutes. They are preluded by a message announcing the beginning of the raid. The list of raids, the time they last, the in-game message you receive, and their parameters are listed below.
