Understanding the Excalibur in Dungeon Quest Reborn
In Dungeon Quest Reborn (developed by Delta Quarters OG), the Excalibur stands out as one of the most coveted cosmetic items. While players often associate it with the classic "Excalibur Quest" structure, recent updates to the game have introduced various ways to interact with high-tier items. Whether you are a veteran player looking to complete the legendary runestone challenge or a newer player hoping to pull it from a crate, understanding the mechanics is essential.
It is important to note that Dungeon Quest Reborn operates under its own specific balance and update cycle. While some legacy mechanics from the original Dungeon Quest persist, the current game build—officially licensed by Foldex—features updated drop tables and acquisition methods that may differ from your previous experiences.
The Traditional Excalibur Quest: Lighting the Runestones
The core of the Excalibur legacy lies in the "Excalibur Quest," which requires players to activate six runestones to prove their worth. According to historical community documentation, five of these runestones are currently obtainable through specific gameplay feats.
Green Runestone (Tutorial/Hard Dungeon): Originally tied to the tutorial, you can now obtain this by completing the Desert Temple on Hard difficulty.
Yellow Runestone (Secret Obby): Locate the tunnel area to the left of the spawn. Navigate through the rocks to reach the secret obby. Completing this and touching the giant yellow crystal at the end activates the stone.
Cyan Runestone (Cosmetic Collector): Acquire three distinct dungeon cosmetic sets. Note that event-specific or shop-exclusive cosmetics typically do not count toward this total; focus on gear dropped in Nightmare difficulty dungeons.
Dark Blue Runestone (Raid Expert): Successfully complete a Tier 5 (Level 200) raid. This replaces the older requirement of owning a specific Tier 30 raid key.
Purple Runestone (Egg Hunter): Collect secret eggs hidden throughout various dungeons, ranging from the Desert Temple to the Orbital Outpost.
Tip
For the Egg Hunter requirement, pay close attention to environmental details. Many eggs are tucked away in non-obvious locations, such as inside barrels or behind boss thrones. For instance, in the current Desert Temple, check the small room within the building before the Sand Scorpion gate.
Is There a Shortcut? Cosmetic Crates and Glitches
Recent community reports have sparked discussions regarding alternative ways to acquire the Excalibur. Some players have observed the Excalibur appearing as a potential drop within the game's cosmetic crate system.
Warning
You may encounter videos or forum posts claiming "glitches" to obtain unlimited legendary cosmetics by manipulating the shop interface (e.g., leaving the game during a roll). Please be aware that these methods are unreliable, often patched by developers, and may lead to account instability or data synchronization issues. Always prioritize standard gameplay methods to ensure your inventory progress is saved correctly on the official Roblox platform page.
If you are hunting for the Excalibur via crates, remember that drop rates for legendary items are typically very low (often around 15%). Patience and consistent, legitimate farming are the only guaranteed ways to build your collection without risking your save data.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the red runestone available?
No, the sixth runestone (the red one) is currently unavailable in the game. The quest remains a long-term goal for the community.
Do event cosmetics count for the Cyan Runestone?
According to community documentation, event-specific cosmetics (such as those from Halloween or Egg Hunt events) and shop-purchased items do not contribute to the "3 cosmetic sets" requirement. You must obtain sets from standard dungeon drops.
Does the Excalibur provide combat stats?
In Dungeon Quest Reborn, the Excalibur is primarily a cosmetic item. While it is highly prestigious, it is meant to showcase your achievements in the game rather than provide a direct power increase to your weapons.
Final Tips for Success
Whether you are grinding for the Excalibur through the traditional questline or testing your luck with crates, the key to success in Dungeon Quest Reborn is consistency. Focus on mastering the mechanics of the Tier 5 raids and optimizing your clear times in dungeons like the Orbital Outpost or The Canals. These dungeons are not only efficient for leveling but also offer the best opportunities to collect the cosmetic sets required for the Cyan Runestone.
Always verify your progress by checking your inventory and runestone status periodically. If you find yourself struggling with a specific obby or boss, consider joining the community Discord or wiki-based discussion boards to see if other players have discovered new strategies or shortcuts for the current game version.
