Players must follow the Realmwalker, kill its Bloodbound Guardians, and defeat it to open a Seething Portal. Inside the Seething Portal is a dungeon players can complete to claim Seething Opals. Opals, when consumed, increase the drop chance of Equipment, Gold, Materials, or Boss Summoning items, depending on the Opal type.
