In-game Event Details
Event Period
All in-game events described in this guide take place throughout the duration of the GSU 2nd Community Test.
July 6, 2023, 2am — July 20, 2023, 2am (UTC+0)
Event #1 — The Supreme Raiders (16-player raids)
Event Description
Clear the Windshear Valley Raid and get a reward of custom merch!
According to Lilith, an area in Windshear Valley where unusually potent waves of force are converging has been discovered.
Given the magnitude of this power… it likely indicates the presence of an immensely powerful entity within. It appears to be a dungeon — perhaps even more than that — created with the sinister intent of destroying the Gran Saga world.
Even if you are an extraordinary adventurer, taking on and vanquishing such a formidable foe alone would be an overwhelming task. However… should you manage to assemble a group of trustworthy allies and triumph over it, that could mark a significant milestone on your path to becoming a System Agent.
Do you dare accept this challenge?
During the 2nd Community Test, we’re unveiling a 16-player raid dungeon that requires at least 30 minutes of playtime. This exceptionally challenging dungeon is designed with our highest-skilled players in mind, but we encourage everyone to join in, experience the adrenaline rush, and brave the challenge of successfully completing it!
How to Participate
1) Reach Level 30
2) Enter the Wind Corridor through a green portal at the Windshear Temple in the Windshear Valley
3) Gather raiders and clear the raid with your friends!
How to join a 16-player Raid
1) Any player who wants to create a raid party should enter the raid dungeon individually, without being a member of any other party.
2) You can invite other players to the raid, by finding their character’s nickname in either the chat window or the Clan Member list. After identifying them, right-clicking the mouse will activate the ‘Invite to Raid’ button. Proceed with the invitation.
3) When the invited player accepts your invitation, they can join you and challenge the raid dungeon together.
Adventurers unite, and conquer the formidable challenges of the raid dungeon!
Event Rewards
Custom ‘Raider’ Hoodie
In honor of the ‘Supreme Raider,’ we’ve prepared a unique reward for those extraordinary players who conquer the intense challenges and triumph over the raid during this testing period! As a testament to your remarkable achievement, we intend to design and send you a unique, limited edition ‘Raider’ hoodie, adorned with your nickname and a bespoke design.
Seize the opportunity to obtain a unique, bespoke hoodie, featuring your player nickname — a symbol of triumph that’s exclusively yours!
