How to get the Teacup Kapikulu

To unlock the Teacup Kapikulu you need to unlock and complete the new dungeon for patch 6.1, Alzadaal's Legacy. This dungeon is unlocked mid-way through the new Main Story Quest (MSQ) for the new patch. The minion is a representation of one of the final bosses in the Dungeon.

The Teacup Kapikulu drops from the final chest in the Dungeon, but has a rare drop rate, so it won’t always spawn. If you run this Dungeon with other players, there’s a chance that a party member rolls higher on the Minion, thus preventing you from getting it.

Alternatively you can run the dungeon with a Trust, a group of NPCs, and keep the Minion for yourself, along with any other loot. However, you’ll still have to contest with the low drop rate for the minion itself!
