History of the Dungeon
Macellarius Catacombs was added TERA: Fate of Arun in late 2014. It was a 5-man leveling dungeon that become available for entry to players at level 64. Loot included three Khirian glyph boxes that would each generate a random common glyph upgrade upon opening and level 64 gear.

Macellarius Catacombs stayed mostly unchanged throughout the years, although it was nerfed at least twice: The first nerf was made to last boss, which often wiped inexperienced parties and second to the giant boss.

The dungeon was subsequently removed in the level 70 patch on March 2019. However, it was soon return as 3-man leveling dungeon for level 65 players with its main purpose to level players to the current level cap of 70. The dungeon drops the entry level versions of Halidoms and Relics and materials for gear Infusion. The Adventure Coin cost was quite expensive per entry, but yielded high amounts of exp by the end of the dungeon as well as providing consumable exp potions and entry level halidoms and relics, slots that been added during the level 70 patch.

As of patch 92 in April 2020 Macellarius Catacombs is the only dungeon available upon reaching level 65 up until level 68 and drops Essence of Nexus II exp potions which yields 250 million XP per potion (at least 4 is dropped on Europe Tera, yielding 1 billion exp per potion). These potions, however, are not subject to exp buffs whereas exp obtained from monster killed inside the dungeon is. The dungeon has a rare chance to drop a random onset mask. The dungeon was closed on January 2021 with patch v102.
