TIAMARANTA’S EYE



A rift in space and time has opened up in Atreia: Asmodians and Elyos are using the opportunity to advance into Tiamaranta’s Eye once more. Courageous Daevas are setting out to hunt monsters there, looting valuable chests and careering fearlessly into brutal skirmishes! As rewards for the bravest of them, the [Rune] Box of Triniel’s Apostle Transformation Fragments, the [Event] Greater Rune Selection Box and the [Rune] Vision Weapons Selection Box await.

Running: 11/11 to 9/12


[h3]How the Event Works[/h3]
Tiamaranta’s Eye awaits you: Pit yourself against other players in PvP, seize victory for your faction in RvR, go monster hunting or scour the region for exquisite chests.

Face off against powerful opponents every day: Defeat Governor Sunayaka and Berserker Sunayaka, and premium rewards will drop for you!


[h3]Entering Via the Rift[/h3]
You can reach Tiamaranta’s Eye via a rift in Gelkmaros or Inggison. Players from any server can join in the fight – the Dimension Hourglass isn’t required to enter.


[h3]Inside Tiamaranta’s Eye[/h3]
Sunayaka will appear as governor or as Berserker Sunayaka in the Commander’s Room in the centre of the area at the following times:
  • At 8 PM every day from Monday to Friday
  • At 12 PM and 10 PM on Saturdays and Sundays

Potential rewards are: Enchantment Stones and Manastones, Minionite, minion contracts, Rune and Odian Fragments, as well as the [Rune] Vision Weapons Selection Box.


[h3]Other Rewards[/h3]
Bundle of Protectorate Gold Coins
You’ll receive the Bundle of Protectorate Gold Coins as a reward for completing quests and for hunting monsters in Tiamaranta’s Eye. You can trade in your bundle for high-quality items with the NPCs Arseus and Lechi.

Treasure Chests
You’ll need keys to open the treasure chests that you will find throughout Tiamaranta’s Eye. You can obtain these from Keymasters, quests or as a drop from monsters.

You’ll receive Lodas’ Silver Star, minion contracts or Rune and Odian Fragments from the treasure chests. As soon as you’ve opened a chest, it will disappear for a time and then reappear later.



Note: The following items will be removed from the game at the end of the event: [Rune] Selection Box of Ultimate Enchantment Potions, [Rune] Ascension Jam (PvP Attack), [Rune] Ascension Jam (PvP Defence), Tiamaranta’s Eye Treasure Box Key, Tiamaranta’s Eye Treasure Chest Key, Bundle of Protectorate Gold Coins and Protectorate Gold Coins.

BAKING PASS WITH THE MOON RABBITS



Each year when the autumn harvests come around, the endearing Moon Rabbits in Atreia bake Honey Cakes for the Daevas. This year, they’ve invited the Daevas to join in and help prepare the cakes. The Daevas have gratefully accepted this challenge, but this undertaking isn’t as easy as they thought: the cakes are time-consuming to prepare and they need to get hold of some of the ingredients!

Help the Moon Rabbits out and as a reward for your efforts, not only will you be able to have a taste of their exquisite Honey Cakes, but you can also earn fantastic rewards like the [Rune] Special Autumn Harvest Transformation Contract (66 types), the [Event] Transformation Contract: Apostle (6 types) and the [Event] Daevanion Skill Chest (10 types)!



Running: 11/11 to 2/12

How it works:
Don’t worry, you don’t have to become a master baker right away – the event is very simple: first you get the ingredients, then you prepare the dough, bake the cake and then trade it for a quality item.


[h3]Get the ingredients![/h3]
You get honey...
  • from logging in daily (1x [Event] Honey every 30 minutes, but max. 5x a day).
  • by completing Lugbug missions.
  • when you defeat Honey Daru in the fortresses in Gelkmaros and Inggison.
  • in the AION Shop.

A little tip: your hero can simply chow down on the honey. This increases their attack, casting and movement speeds by 5 percent for 20 minutes.

You get Rice Powder...
  • by completing a weekly quest in which you exchange Slot Stones, Gold Ingots and Stellium with Journinerk.
  • by defeating monsters in the following instances: Stella Development Laboratory (easy/normal); (Weak) Daeva Mob Leader, Makarna of Bitterness (normal); Beritra’s Shroud, Prometun’s Workshop (normal), Prigga, Lower Udas Temple; Debilkarim the Maker.
  • as a reward for completing daily Lugbug missions.
  • in the AION Shop.


You get Pine Needles...
  • by beating the Pine Needle Full Moon, which appears in western Inggison and eastern Gelkmaros each day from 8 PM to 10 PM.
  • as a reward for completing Lugbug missions.
  • in the Gold Sand Shop.
  • in the AION Shop.



[h3]Now it’s time to get baking![/h3]
Prepare the dough: To make 1 Honey Cake, you’ll need 5x Honey, 2x Pine Needles and 1x Rice Powder.

Bake, bake, bake the cake! Use the Honey Cake Workbench to bake your cake. You can end up with one of three different cakes: [Event] Honey Cake, [Event] Small Honey Cake Basket or [Event] Burned Honey Cake.

Don’t worry if your cake ends up burnt. It happens to the Moon Rabbits every now and then too. As mad as you might be about the result of your baking, you can still use the burnt cake and throw it at your enemies to deal 8,000 damage!


[h3]Grab your reward![/h3]
Did your Honey Cake turn out well? Then take it to the Harvest Festival Merchant in Inggison or Gelkmaros and exchange it for valuable items.


[h3]Master the art of baking![/h3]
Let the NPC Linnai take you under your novice baker’s arm to help you decorate your cake and clean up even better rewards! But take care, something could go wrong here too and if you run into bad luck, all you’ll be left with is a burned cake!
  • For a fee of 700,000 Kinah, Linnai will help you bake your [Event] Honey Cake into an [Event] Small Honey Cake Basket.
  • For a fee of 7,000,000 Kinah, Linnai will help you bake your [Event] Honey Cake into an [Event] Magnificent Honey Cake Box.



[h3]Rewards[/h3]
You can find all of the possible rewards for this event in our Rewards List.



Note: The following items will be removed from the game at the end of the event: [Event] Honey, [Event] Rice Powder, [Event] Rice Powder, Event] Pine Needle, [Event] Honey Cake, [Event] Small Honey Cake Basket, Event] Magnificent Honey Cake Box and [Event] Burned Honey Cake.

The Luna Dice Game



Running: 4/11 to 2/12

These dice don’t lie: play and win some great items such as the [Event] Glyph Box, [Rune] Selection Box of Class A, Level 2 Minion Contracts, Box of Transformation Contracts: Legendary Apostle (12 types) and plenty more.




[h3]How the game works:[/h3]
Roll and win: there are different reward levels that are represented as chests. To start your dice rolling, you will need Luna.


[h3]Let the dice fly[/h3]
You roll 5 dice in the game. Every throw gives you the chance of a prize, represented by a laughing Shugo. But what would a game be if there was no losing? Should this befall you, a blue Shugo will be shown.

You can stop rolling at any time – or keep going until you have won on all 5 dice. No matter when you stop, you keep all the rewards you win.

There is the option to have the dice roll automatically until they all win. If you select this option, the corresponding amount of Luna will be withdrawn. Alternatively you can roll the dice yourself each time by clicking on the button.


[h3]Golden Die[/h3]
Now things get interesting: as soon as you win on all 5 dice, you will get the chance to roll the Golden Die. Naturally, there are better rewards for winning Golden Die than normal dice. The Golden Die can only be rolled once and you will have to pay Luna for every roll.

If Lady Luck abandons you when it comes to the Golden Die, you still keep the rewards you have earned. You also receive a consolation prize, so it’s always worth giving it a roll.


[h3]What does all this fun cost?[/h3]
Each roll costs you 5 Luna. The game with the Golden Die costs 125 Luna per roll.


[h3]Rewards[/h3]
If your rolls win, you will be rewarded with boxes that have different levels. Once all dice have been rolled or you have decided to leave the game, you will receive a random item from the box you have won. Depending on the roll, you can earn either 1 or more boxes of the same level.





Have fun!
