[h2] Solorius Tree Materials[/h2]

Event: Tiamaranta’s Eye



Win Fabulous Prizes in Event Full of Variety!

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 among them, the +12 Extreme Weapon Selection Box, the Apostle Fragment Selection Box and [Event] [Motion Card] Monkey King await.

  • Running: 23rd October 2024 (9 AM CEST) to 8th January 2025 (8:59 AM CET)
  • Characters: Level 80+

[h2] How the Event Works[/h2]

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!

[h2] Entering Via the Rift[/h2]

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.

[h2] Inside Tiamaranta’s Eye[/h2]

Governor Sunayaka or Berserker Sunayaka will appear in the Commander’s Room in the centre of the area at the following times:
  • Every day from 1 PM to 1:30 PM → Governor Sunayaka
  • Monday to Friday from 8 PM to 8:30 PM → Governor Sunayaka or Berserker Sunayaka
  • Saturday to Sunday from 8 PM to 8:30 PM → Berserker Sunayaka

Please note: Since enemies will also drop normal items, the alliance/league leader should adjust the distribution settings accordingly (Distribution Settings → Roll Dice: Normal items or above)

[h2] Rental Equipment and Buff[/h2]

For a little Kinah, the NPC Lisnerk in Tiamaranta’s Eye will lend you a completely enchanted set of Acrimony equipment – the [Event] Equipment Chest of Acrimony contains two weapons and armour for you class! The chest and the equipment disappear as soon as you leave Tiamaranta’s Eye.

The NPC Boronerk will give you a free ultimate transformation buff of your choice: Kaisinel, Marchutan, Ereshkigal or Tiamat. The strengthening spell remains for 30 minutes, even after death. But if you leave Tiamaranta’s Eye, the buff will be removed.
The minions’ Buff Master function can override the buff, however. Please deactivate or remove the Transformation Scrolls to avoid this.

[h2] Rewards[/h2]

Protectorate Gold Coins

Protectorate Gold Coins can be earned for completing quests or opening treasure chests. You can trade in your coins 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.
