The Omen of the Demon Horse Event

Running from February 11, 2026, after the regular maintenance until March 11, 2026, this event invites players to engage in thrilling quests and battles. An NPC named "Watchman of the Ruins" will appear in the town of Giran, allowing players to exchange in-game currency (Adena) for access to the event map called "Land of the Demon Horse". This challenging dungeon is open to characters above level 80 and allows each character 60 minutes of playtime per day.

In the Land of the Demon Horse, players can encounter monsters that drop unique event items such as "Remnants of the Blood King" and rare loot like the "Maple Leaf Ring." The remnants can be exchanged with another NPC, the "Alchemist of the Remnants," in Giran for the crafting of the anniversary equipment "Scarlet Racer's Gaiters" and various consumables. Players will have the opportunity to defeat the Demon Horse to collect rare items and exclusive event gear, making this anniversary event a must-play.
