• Synergises well with Verata's Aura and Verata's Gaze.

Trivia

• This Flux has been in effect every October since 2011 (following UTC±0 in 2011 and 2012, and UTC−7 in 2013 onward).
• This is the only Flux to affect a PvE area.
• Before the October 4, 2011 update, getting banned by Dhuum in a PvP outpost would trigger Minion Apocalypse and could quickly cause the whole outpost to be swarmed with bone horrors.
  • As is typical for deaths in outposts, these deaths did not count against the survivor title.
  • Video of this bug: Random Arenas.
• A Zombie Apocalypse is a popular type of apocalyptic fiction in which zombies threaten civilization through rapid growth and infection of humans; it is also the title of a video game.
