Events

This article serves as an overview of information about the five server-wide events that Ephinea hosts throughout the year. For more information, including thorough breakdowns of boosts, event-exclusive items, or event-exclusive quests, visit each event's respective page.

While active, Ephinea's events enable a number of event-exclusive features, including:

• Experience, rare monster, or drop rate boosts;
• Quests;
• Items;
• Visual Lobby and Pioneer 2 themes

While start and end dates for past events are recorded on each event's page, there are no exact dates when events are "supposed" to start.

Valentine's

Main article: Valentine's event

The Valentine's event is a two-week event that occurs toward the middle of February. While the Valentine's event is active, the Visual Lobby and Pioneer 2 are adorned with large heart decorations.

During the event, players may benefit from increased rare drop rate by playing in parties with other players, which increases per number of players. The Valentine's event also features the "sharing" of the daily forecast while playing with others, which grants an additional boost on top of the boost from multiple players.

Easter

Main article: Easter event

The Easter event is a four-week event that occurs during April. While the Easter event is active, the Visual Lobby and Pioneer 2 are adorned with large easter egg decorations.

During the event, all monsters have a chance to drop an Event Egg on death, with the rate at which they drop determined by difficulty. Easter Eggs may then be spent in the quest The Egg Shop, which is available year-round, or traded with other players.

Additionally, Egg Rappies will spawn in the VR Temple in place of Love Rappies, and may drop Easter Egg.

Anniversary

Main article: Anniversary event

The Anniversary event is a four-week event that occurs during August.

During the event, all monsters have a chance to drop one of four different event-exclusive items known as Anniversary Badges on death, with the kinds of badges available depending on difficulty. These badges may then be spent in the Anniversary Badge Shop, which is available year-round, or traded with other players.

The Anniversary event also makes eleven Maximum Attack E quests available. In years prior to 2024, a server-wide kill count was tracked for the duration of the event, which would enable server-wide rate boosts upon reaching certain milestones. In 2024, a different system that tracked individual clears of the Maximum Attack E quests was implemented, where boosts were unlocked based on the number of clears of the least-cleared quest (similar to the previous Hunters Boost Road system).

Halloween

Main article: Halloween event

The Halloween event is a two-week event that occurs toward the end of October. While the Halloween event is active, the Visual Lobby and Pioneer 2 are adorned with large jack-o'-lantern decorations.

During the event, all monsters have a chance to drop a Halloween Cookie on death. Halloween Cookies allow players to play the various Halloween quests, which are available and may be initiated year-round, but require giving an NPC located in each one a Halloween Cookie to allow the party to use the teleporter.

Additionally, Hallo Rappies will spawn in the VR Temple in place of Love Rappies, and may drop Jack-O'-Lantern.

Christmas

Main article: Christmas event

The Christmas event is a four-week event that occurs during December. While the Christmas event is active, the Visual Lobby and Pioneer 2 are adorned with large christmas tree decorations.

During the event, all monsters have a chance to drop a Present on death. Presents may be "opened" from the inventory to reward the player with a random item, chosen from one of two pre-determined lists (based on the difficulty the present dropped in). Presents obtained in Normal, Hard, and Very Hard difficulties contain less generally valuable items, while presents obtained in Ultimate difficulty contain a much larger variety of potentially rarer items.

The Christmas event also makes three Christmas Fiasco quests available. Completion of these quests rewards the player with Coal, another item exclusive to the Christmas event. Coal may then be spent at the Christmas Event Shop in exchange for one of the two different kinds of Presents, depending on the amount of Coal spent.

Additionally, St Rappies will spawn in the VR Temple in place of Love Rappies, and may drop Christmas Present.
