11th Anniversary Event
12th August ~ 9th September

Welcome to the 11th Ephinea Anniversary Event!​
Hiya hunters!

For those of you who remember last year's announcement regarding future Anniversary Event changes starting this year, including the removal of Maximum Attack E and Anniversary Badges. I am here to inform you that due to unforeseen circumstances, we are repeating the former Anniversary Event format. Please understand and rest assured, we have still made a few changes and additions to keep things fresh. In the spoiler below, you can find the changes for this year.

- Badges are independent from enemy drops--if you kill an enemy, it can drop two items.
- Badges are rolled once per monster as party drops. This means that everyone in the party will get the same badge from an enemy. If the party is set to Classic drops in multiplayer, the badge goes to the floor.
- When a badge drops for a player, the badge will be deposited to the character or shared bank if there is room. If not, the badge will go to the floor.
- If a dropped badge is deposited to the bank, there will be a notification on the right stating this. You can toggle display of these notifications per character using the new /badgenotify command. Note that badges deposited to your bank will still play the rare drop sound effect if the option is enabled in the launcher.
- Badges on the ground will hover up and down slightly to stand out from other red boxes.
- Badge rewards from clearing Maximum Attack E or August Atrocity will be deposited to the character or shared bank if there is room. If not, the badge will go to the inventory.
- Milestones have been shuffled and expanded slightly from last year, yet remain somewhat condensed for overall bigger rewards per unlock.
- The milestone targets were estimated by considering past Anniversary events.
- Two gold badge rewards have been added.
- The first addition to the gold badge shop is: Heart of Flight Fan, which turns certain slicers into Flight Fan.
- The second gold badge shop addition is: Blue Powder Coating, which changes the color of certain weapons.


What's the Anniversary Event?

The Anniversary Event is an event which features badge currency drops and a set of exclusive limited-time quests, known as Maximum Attack E.

During the course of this event, you will be able to find four different types of badges:
  • Bronze (All Difficulties)
  • Silver (Very Hard and Ultimate)
  • Gold (Ultimate Only)
  • Platinum (Ultimate Only, extremely rare)
The higher the difficulty, the more common the badge drops. These badges will drop anywhere, they are not exclusive to the event quest series.

All badge drops will also be independent of any drop rate modifications. This means you will find badges at the same rate regardless of the amount of players you are playing with.

Note that badges cannot drop from rappies that are scared instead of killed.

You'll be able to spend these badges in the "Anniversary Event Shop" under Episode 1 at various NPCs.

Note that:
  • 10 Bronze = 1 Silver
  • 10 Silver = 1 Gold
Maximum Attack E

Maximum Attack E are this event's designated quest series.

Each quest is designed to last 5-10 minutes, and cannot be failed, meaning all players will be able to participate.

The quest list is as follows:
  • Maximum Attack E: Forest
  • Maximum Attack E: Caves
  • Maximum Attack E: Mines
  • Maximum Attack E: Ruins
  • Maximum Attack E: Temple
  • Maximum Attack E: Spaceship
  • Maximum Attack E: CCA
  • Maximum Attack E: Seabed
  • Maximum Attack E: Tower
  • Maximum Attack E: Crater
  • Maximum Attack E: Desert
Note that each quest features a timer. This timer doesn't have any purpose and is simply for players who like to see how fast they're going. The timer will also freeze at the end of the quest, so players don't have to rush to press their printscreen button.

August Atrocity
This is a returning series of quests introduced for this year's event. Like the December Disaster quests from the Christmas event, these quests are made in the style of the existing event quests but feature a wide variety of enemies, including enemies from other episodes this time!


Event Milestones

Event Milestone Page

During this event, clears of each event quest in Ultimate difficulty will be tallied. The lowest cleared event quest will determine the server's current milestone.

Make certain goals to unlock boosts for everyone to enjoy. Any boosts applied will function everywhere, not only in the event quests.

If you wish to see your personal kill counter, talk to the Guide in the Anniversary Badge Shop.

Anniversary Shop Quest

Normal → Episode 1 → Shop​

If you manage to find or earn badges on your travels and hunts, you may trade them for various goodies in the Anniversary Shop Quest.

There are a total of 8 NPCs to do trades with, and they all take various badges for their services.

Check under the spoiler if you're interested in the shop list.

In the Anniversary Shop, there are nine NPCs who would love to do business with you and your badges.

The Hunter from Ragol
Location: Tyrell's Office

The Hunter can be a little rough around the edges, but you can't argue with his stock. If you bring him Gold Badges, you can trade him for one of his weapons. If you're lucky, you might get one with Hit. All weapons will cost 1 Gold Badges.

The Hunter is sick of properly tekking items for you, so you can buy a random untekked weapon for 1 Gold Badge. They can potentially have higher percentages, but you don't get to choose which weapon you'll get.

Currency: Gold

Daisy Chain
Nice Shot
Hammer
Crazy Tune
Toy Hammer
Harisen Battle Fan
Akiko's Cleaver
Samba Maracas
Rocket Punch
Le Cogneur

The Thief from Ragol
Location: Medical Center

Back from her misadventure in Caves, the Thief will let you gamble your Bronze Badges for exotic prizes. Her selection of items consists mostly of those available from Coren; those who trade with her may find a variety of units, armors and shields, most of which are aimed to help newer players.

Currency: Bronze

Monofluid
Antidote

The Badger
Location: Outside the teleporter to Tyrell's Office

The Badger has been here all along. He used to hang around the bank, waiting for his friends to show up. They never did. Now he expects you to be his friend. Good luck with that.

He's not without a purpose, however. Instead of trading up badges through the Badge Shops, the Badger will provide that service for you. He's just that nice of a guy. If you bring him 10 Bronzes, he'll give you 1 Silver, and if you bring him 10 Silvers, he'll give you 1 Gold.

The Guide
Location: Hunter's Guild

The Guide makes her return from last year, providing some insight into the event to players who ask. If looking up this thread every time seems tedious, seek out the Guide instead.

Like last year, the Guide is also in charge of handing out the grand prize for players who find the coveted Platinum Badge.

Currency: Platinum

1 = Sonic Doll
1 = Sealed J-Sword
1 = Heaven Punisher
1 = Handgun: Guld
1 = Psycho Wand
1 = Prophets of Motav

All weapons come with 0% in every category.

Cant wait to play tomorrow!
Bummer about the format, I was hoping for people only grinding Forest to discover the world beyond those wall. The auto send to bank is a feature I wasn't expecting. Were badge drop ajusted by not being boost by amount of players present?

I just fixed an issue with the server not counting the clears. I can see the data is being recorded in the server and the /badge output looks correct, but it seems like the milestones page isn't updating. We'll fix this tomorrow.

EDIT: Should be fixed.
