[h2] Enjoy Benefits When Fusing Contracts and Enchanting Items![/h2]

Strengthen your hero and benefit from increased enchantment chances for Daevanion skills, runes and Odians in this event. Plus, fusing 3 or more Legendary or Ancient Transformation Contracts won’t result in your contract receiving a lower level!

Running: 15th November (9:00 AM) to 29th November (9:00 AM CET)

[h3]Daevanion Skills[/h3]

The enchantment chances for Daevanion skills are slightly increased (from 20% to 30%) when you use different skill books to enchant the skills.

[h3]Runes and Odians[/h3]

During the boost event, the chance for enchanting runes and Odians to level 5 is slightly increased.

[h3]Transformations[/h3]

If you combine three or more Legendary or Ancient Transformation Contracts during the event, the fusion can’t fail. The transformation can’t revert to a lower level, and you’re guaranteed at least a contract of the level Legendary or Ancient.

When fusing two Legendary or Ancient Transformation Contracts, the chance of it losing a level is reduced during the event.

Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker’s Shugo...

The smell of sweet honey coming from a warm kitchen, where deliciously sticky baked treats lie steaming fresh from the oven, will make the cool autumn months easier to swallow. Take part in the biggest baking event the Daevas have ever experienced and create the tastiest honey cakes in all Atreia!

Pick up items on the way such as the [Event] Dark Tiger’s Weapon Selection Box, [Event] Full Moon Wing Selection Box, [Event] Ultimate PvE Enchantment Stone (7 days) and many more!
