✦✦ How to Play ✦✦
During the event, defeating monsters on any map gives players a chance to obtain gatekeys, which are used to challenge event stages.
Event stages consist of stronghold stages and the Ancient Stronghold Defense stage:
✦ Stronghold Stages ✦
Knights can spend the required gatekeys to start stronghold stage challenges, and gatekeys are only deducted upon successfully clearing the stage. Knights can repeatedly obtain event currency, equipment, and Premium Affix Fragments, as well as claim stage clear rewards and first-clear rewards.
✦ Ancient Stronghold Defense Stage ✦
The Ancient Stronghold Defense stage requires players to hold their ground and defeat incoming enemy generals. Similar to the current season's tower climbing mode, it requires no gatekeys and offers massive first-clear rewards!
✦ Training Grounds
Besides heading out to defeat monsters, Knights can also use building materials to upgrade the Training Grounds and add Eidolons as Support Eidolons to further boost their combat power.
Additionally, Knights can obtain tons of progression materials, Echoes, Dracocrux, and a Custom 4-Socket Fatestone Pack from the 7-Day Quests and Exchange Shop!
