Second Week's Guild EventEventsWritten by Erza,

---

Since Ascarus traditionally launches on Fridays and Guild Events happen on Saturdays, we have decided that instead of disabling it for the first week, like in previous seasons, we will allow the Guild Events to happen, but will be reducing the rewards in these first 2 weeks, in order to not create big gaps between competing guilds early on, and enjoy fun battles on lower levels. We have now arrived at the second Guild Event, we hope you enjoyed last week's event.

The reward table for the second week will be the following:

1. Guild Trophy, Addon Doll, Mystery Gift, 10 Gold Nuggets, 2x Orb of Enchantment, Stamina Refiller, 100 Game Tokens
2. Mystery Gift, 5 Gold Nuggets, 2x Orb of Enchantment, Stamina Refiller, 80 Game Tokens
3. Mystery Gift, 3 Gold Nuggets, Orb of Enchantment, Stamina Refiller, 70 Game Tokens
4. Pair of Soft Boots, 2 Gold Nuggets, 60 Game Tokens
5. Pair of Soft Boots, 1 Gold Nugget, 50 Game Tokens

The reward table for week 3 and onwards will be normalized again, according to our events page.
