DRACANIAN ANNIVERSARY FESTIVAL 2023
~Event Guide~



Quick Overview
Required level: 20-100
Duration: 13th of September 12:00 – 13th of October 23:59 CEST

Event summary
Welcome to the Dracanian Anniversary Festival! Everyone in Kingshill is excited about this special moment of the year…The 12th Anniversary of Dracania. But not everything is shining in the city! Some mysterious evil forces want to reintroduce the notorious Crystals of Truth into Dracania and spread chaos and fear across the lands!

Get the party started!

During the event, all worthy opponents you encounter in your adventure can drop Phestos’ Egg Openers. You’ll need to collect them to open the Mysterious Anniversary Eggs that can be found on special spots across all dungeon maps (both in and outside of Parallel World Dungeons; there is now a mini-map indicator implemented when you are near an egg). You will need 5 of these openers to crack an egg open.



Each egg drops a variety of event items for you, but you also can receive different quantities of Crystals of Truth and, if you are lucky enough, the Anniversary Arena Chip. In the Anniversary Arena, you will face some of the greatest monsters of Dracania and can defeat them like a true Hero.



Collect as many Crystals of Truth as you can and head to Phestos in Kingshill in the middle of the party. He has opened quite an emporium in the middle of the Fairground and he’s offering numerous useful items in exchange for those!

The Dracanian Anniversary Arena
A place to show your heroic skills and defeat all enemies that try to stop you! The arena will send you 5 waves of monsters. If you manage to clear all the monster waves, chests will appear, containing different loot for your hero, Anniversary Forfeit Chests for the other types of arenas (from the general Anniversary Arena only), and the Anniversary Forfeit itself (from the regional Anniversary Arena). As you may know, there are different region and event-related versions of the arena, each one responsible for the Anniversary Forfeit farming for the certain progress bar you are on. Every time you open the Golden Anniversary Chest (excluding the one from the general Anniversary Arena), you get the Anniversary Arena Champion buff, which increases your loot from the Golden Anniversary Chest every time you open it, while it is active (duration: 5m).

Note that you can only open the Anniversary Forfeit Chest once the specific progress bar is active. The same rule applies to entering a regional arena - if you don’t unlock the specific progress bar, you won’t be able to enter the corresponding arena.




The Dracanian Challenge Arena
The spellweavers of Kingshill created a new challenging arena for the Anniversary festival. Are you brave enough to face it?
Fight three bosses simultaneously on all difficulties, except for Bloodshed and PW Bloodshed, where four bosses await you.
The map requires a Charged Mark of Bravery to enter, which you first obtain from completing the Mark of Bravery quest from Phestos (required to be able to encounter the entry post for the map in general, after defeating enemies) and then can be obtained from his Shop offers. Completing the arena will grant you the Golden Anniversary Chest as well. It drops Anniversary Forfeit (Dracanian Challenge), the progress item for the last

progress bar, as well as a chance of dropping the Pauldrons of the Ferocious Beast and the new Thunder Beast weapon. Every time you open the Golden Anniversary Chest, you get the Dracanian Challenge Champion buff, which increases your loot from the Golden Anniversary Chest every time you open it, while it is active (duration: 10m).
Be aware - even if you already unlocked the possibility of entering this arena, if you do not have the last progress bar unlocked, the progress from the Golden Anniversary Chest will not be counted!

The Anniversary Arena Chests
After defeating all monster waves, 5x Anniversary Chests will spawn. They are dropping regional items and equipment similar to any other monster from the region/event. The loot from the chest is scaling with the difficulty entered.

The Golden Anniversary Chest (largest one) is dropping Anniversary Forfeit and Region-specific herbs and ores.




The Anniversary Forfeit Chest

There are 15 types of Anniversary Forfeit Chests, each type used for getting Forfeits, which are the currency needed for completing the progress bars for each one of the bars. Each chest contains 5 Forfeits and a variable amount of Crystals of Truth, with a chance to get a small amount of Phestos’ Piñata Truncheons.


The Grand Anniversary Forfeit Chest


The chest can be obtained through Daily Deals and provides a great amount of Anniversary Forfeit for the progress bar you are currently on.


The Anniversary Arena Chip Chest

Open the chest to receive a random arena-specific anniversary arena chip. Can be obtained from various NPCs (check below).


The Eggshell


Eggshells are obtained by opening the Mysterious Anniversary Eggs around the world of Dracania and are required for completing the Dracanian Anniversary quest, provided by Phestos

The Phestos’ Egg Opener

Phestos’ Egg Openers are required for interacting with the Mysterious Anniversary Eggs. They can be obtained as
a drop from worthy opponents or bought from Phestos or Jesse O’Barker in Kingshill.

No party without piñatas!

You can also purchase a Piñata Truncheon from Phestos and Jesse O’Barker. If you go around Kingshill, you’ll see some colorful piñatas next to different vendors. If you open one of those, you will receive one random item from the offers of that particular merchant, so you better bring some luck with you. You can hit and open the piñata as many times as you want after a little cool-down.
Some piñatas require more truncheons than others to be opened so hover over each piñata to see the costs!
Keep a good eye on the Golden Piñata, it is an irreplaceable part of the party! You need Golden Piñata Truncheons to interact with the Golden Piñata. There is one in each regional hub and can drop marvelous items, from the outstanding Pauldrons of the Ferocious Beast to the immaculate Celestial Dragon. The Golden Piñata Truncheons can be obtained as a jackpot from the Festive Piñatas in Kingshill (one Golden Piñata Truncheon per Festive Piñata), as well as bought for Drakens from Grima (up to 3 times).
