The Hike should show up this Thursday coming. The new breed is at checkpoint 2 so easy to get and since the promo can be restarted it is possible to get 2 of them. There are 10 checkpoints in total.

The missing Diamond prize is the divine Harlequin.

They messed up the Harlequin image.

The Great Challenge, then Wanderers...

Yay Wanderers

Seems like we are getting Wandering horses

Apologies, the next event is apparently called "The Onis' Lair, and it's a dig event

The next event is the wandering horses, then the Onis Lair follows.

The Onis’ Lair

We are excited to announce that the dig event returns with a new theme and a few adjustments. Have you ever heard the story of a brave boy named Momotarō? The Onis’ Lair is inspired by his adventures.

In this event, you will work with your trusty friend, Akita, to go through different dungeons and chase away the monsters as you go - just like Momotarō from the legends!


How to play?


With Akita’s help, chase away monsters that are blocking your way, progress from room to room and get surprises. Make your way to the 100th room and free Akita to win him as a companion for your horses.

A gauge will display the life points that your helper has left. It will fill up gradually over time. Chase away the enemies that you encounter with your attacks points, and your life points as a counterattack.

When the meter is empty, you will have a choice to make from these below:

Wait to get another health point

Buy more health points with passes

The enemies that you will meet (also known as Onis) are guarding different things:

Gifts

The Pheasant who will ask you to complete a quest

The Dangos to feed and improve Akita’s skills

Divine fragments for the horse Momotarō (that you can also find in the Titan’s Challenge)


Each room has a maximum of four doors, but some of them might be blocked.

NEW ❗

⚠ You can only go through 1 door per room!
⚠ The gifts are distributed randomly among the different doors and rooms.



How to win prizes?



You will encounter doors that are blocked by Onis. You will need to use your life points to chase away the monster and win the gift.

Some Onis will be accompanied by a quest giver: the Pheasant. In this case, less life points are needed to scare the Oni. However, you will need to complete the quest or wait a certain amount of time to go through the door. It is possible to skip such an objective by donating a Black Market item to Ow.

⚠ Passing through the quest giver is not a shortcut. You always advance from one room to another. The quest giver only allows you to use less life points to move on.



How to improve Akita’s skills?



While going from room to room, you will find some Dangos to upgrade your little pet, Akita. You're free to improve him how you wish, but it will mainly depend on your playstyle.

There are 3 different types of improvements:

Regeneration time improvement: Akita’s health points will regenerate faster.


Attack power improvement: Akita can deal more damage with each attack.


Health bar points improvement: This tool will increase Akita’s maximum health bar capacity.


Note: Same as during the last edition, it is still not possible to buy upgrades with Passes.

Once you've freed the companion, you can restart the event.

Please note that only the gifts you did not collect during your first visit will be available to win during the second time around. You can only win the companion once -, the first time you go to the last room.
