New Episode: JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK CURSED[]
A powerful curse is burning through the world's most powerful magic users, escalating their powers to dangerously violent extremes! Hoping Batman can take on the hard work, John Constantine's transported his House of Mystery to overlook Gotham Cemetery, where he and it are now under attack.
Who - or what - is the source of this terrible curse? Is magic itself doomed? Will Constantine’s cheeky imposition land him in hot water with the Caped Crusader? Constantine and Zatanna have personally asked for your help.

REWARDS CHANGES[]
- The Stabilizer Duo is back with increased rewards.
- This instance returns as the primary way to earn Stabilizers and Stabilizer Fragments in-game. (If you recall, this was how Stabilizers were obtained prior to the introduction of Doctor Fate's Daily Rewards.)
- Rewards have been increased so that everyone is earning more than they were when Stabilizers were introduced as part of Daily Rewards.
- Non-Members can earn 5 Stabilizer Fragments per day while Members can earn 9 Stabilizer Fragments per day.
- Queue for the duo in your On Duty menu daily.
- Stabilizers are no longer part of Doctor Fate's Daily Rewards (because Stabilizers are again delivered through the duo).
- Stabilizers can no longer be purchased weekly from Doctor Fate or Episode vendors. (This is accounted for in the duo rewards increase above.)
- New rewards are now available instead on days 3, 8, 13, and 18.
- Artifact XP is now account bound (meaning, you can only transfer it between your own characters on your account).
- Before now, nearly all Artifact XP was already account bound and this corrects a small number of outliers that were flagged incorrectly as tradeable.
- Omnibus content now has a short, five-minute loot lockout to prevent exploitation.
- This is not expected or intended to impact anyone that is legitimately running content. Even with this lockout, content will still be unlocked before it can realistically be completed again.
- This change is needed because it will disrupt players completing content illegitimately, who are using exploits that allow them to gain rewards too quickly.
A fair game is important to everyone. We believe these changes are necessary to maintain fairness in the game and prevent bad actors from using bots or other means to disrupt legitimate play.
Remember, you can report toxic and cheating players to our teams quickly with a short email to either toxic@dcuniverseonline.com or cheater@dcuniverseonline.
