- Overview of 1st Anniversary Event Rewards

The Main Story event [At the End of the Journey] is scheduled to run for about three weeks, from November 12 to December 3.
In this final episode of Season 1, the Captain takes center stage.
As you play through the episode, we hope you enjoy the scenes we have prepared and discover what the title means to you.

Two new Saviors, [Witch of Favoritism] and [Executor: Gille], will arrive alongside the Main Story event.
This time, both will be available through Observation for three weeks starting as soon as the event begins.

● New Saviors & Arcana
■ Witch of Favoritism (Cosmic, Order Attribute, Striker)
· Breaks enemy Toughness with powerful attacks and deals devastating damage to enemies with broken Toughness.

■ Executor: Gille (Cosmic, Chaos Attribute, Caster)
· Grants powerful buffs to Saviors who meet certain conditions in battle and can consistently deal Toughness damage.
※ You can obtain [Executor: Gille] for free during the 1st Anniversary update.

We have been creating Arcpoint scenes for original Saviors and Extra Moment scenes for their alternate versions. The Arcpoint scenes for [Witch of Favoritism] and [Executor: Gille] will be the last. From then on, every new Savior will receive an Extra Moment.

We believe this change makes better use of StarSavior’s strengths, and we hope you look forward to the new scenes.

To help new and returning Captains catch up on Season 1, we will temporarily unlock all Main Story episodes during the three-week [At the End of the Journey] event.
This time, you can view the Main Story in the Database regardless of your Operation progress.
We hope you take this opportunity to experience the full story of Season 1.

■ The Exile's Return Trajectory

[The Exile's Return Trajectory] is a mini story event that follows Gille after the Divine Barrier drove her back in Main Story Episode 5.
You can enter event stages a set number of times each day. Clear stages to earn event currency, then exchange it for a variety of high-value rewards in the Event Shop.
For Captains who have had trouble obtaining Gear, we have made high-value Gear easier to earn in this event.
We hope you enjoy Gille's story and pick up some high-value Gear along the way.

■ Onslaught Quest

Onslaught Quest is another chance to obtain high-value Gear, and this time it will run for three weeks.
We have increased the rewards so Captains can earn more high-value Gear over the longer event period.
The Gear acquisition improvements in [The Exile's Return Trajectory] will also apply to Onslaught Quest.

■ Overload Cube

Overload Cube will run for seven weeks as before, with [Witch of Favoritism] as the season boss.
We are making a few changes to make Collection Missions easier to track and complete.
1) Make it easier to see which Replica Codes have Collection Missions.
2) Show a red dot on Replica Codes with incomplete Collection Missions when you shuffle.
3) Lower mission requirements so you can earn key rewards in fewer runs.

■ Select Observation

As before, you can change your selected Observation target up to three times. All Saviors added to the Standard Observation pool, including Cosmic Saviors, are eligible.
The Observation Bonus will also return. You can earn additional rewards based on how many Observations you make.
We hope this gives Captains another chance to obtain Saviors or Arcana they missed.

■ Advanced Auto Journey

Advanced Auto Journey is available only to Saviors who have reached Resonance Stage 10. Some restrictions apply to how you can set training frequency during a Journey.
Advanced Auto Journey offers three key benefits to offset these restrictions.
1) Gain additional Journey stat bonuses based on the Arcana in your lineup.
2) Choose Charms before starting a Journey to obtain the corresponding Starlight Trajectory Potentials.
3) Every battle during the Journey automatically counts as a victory.
Advanced Auto Journey will launch in beta with this update.
We will keep adjusting the balance based on how Captains use the beta and where the feature needs improvement.

■ Event Archive

You can revisit past event stories at any time through the Event Archive in the Database.
You will need an [Archive Entry Permit] to unlock an event story. You will be able to obtain one permit each month.
Watching an event story in the archive earns you the icons and frames originally offered during that event.
You can also obtain event key visual artwork newly added in this update.

■ Expanded Arcana and Lobby Preset Slots

Captains now have more Arcana combinations to try and more artwork to display in the Lobby. We plan to expand the number of slots for both Arcana Presets and Lobby Presets.
We will keep looking for ways to give Captains more options for using and displaying their favorite Saviors and artwork.

■ Apocalypse Shop Improvements

We are updating three parts of the Apocalypse Shop.
1) Daily Offers
All Gear available in Daily Offers will be Legendary.
Focused Crafting Fuel will also have a chance to appear in Daily Offers.

2) Candle Square > Hunt Quest
Set Accessory Random Boxes in the Hunt Quest Shop will contain only Legendary Gear.

3) Observation Records > Standard Observation Record Shop
The [Standard Observation Savior Random Box Vol. 1] will be replaced with [Standard Observation Savior Random Box Vol. 2].

The updated lineup is planned to cover Saviors and Arcana released in roughly the first six months after the Korean and Japanese launches.

We plan to refresh the items available for exchange periodically. The timing and lineup may change depending on Savior releases at the time.

The [Memoirs of a Year Yet to Come] event is scheduled to run from December 3 to December 25.
This year-end event picks up where the Main Story leaves off.
The Captain, Lacy, and Carnelia meet at NOA's Nebula Book Festival, where their plans become entangled as each pursues a different goal.
We hope you enjoy the dynamic between the three.

■ New Saviors & Arcana
● Butterfly Dream: Lacy (Sun Attribute, Assassin)
· Strengthens all allies, including herself. Each time she hits an enemy with a skill, her own unique buff grows stronger.
※ [Butterfly Dream: Lacy] will be available through Observation starting in Week 1 of [Memoirs of a Year Yet to Come].
※ [Butterfly Dream: Lacy] is a Limited Savior.

● Nightfall's Eve: Carnelia (Moon Attribute, Striker)
· Spends a unique resource to unleash skills in rapid succession.
· Under certain conditions, she overwhelms enemies with powerful skills every turn.
※ [Nightfall's Eve: Carnelia] will be available through Observation starting in Week 3 of [Memoirs of a Year Yet to Come].

● [Memoirs of a Year Yet to Come] Event Rewards
As with [Lost in Summer! Fated Paradise] and [A Study in Gray], we have prepared rewards equivalent to 300 free Observations.
We hope you will join the event. Good luck with your Observations for Lacy and Carnelia!

■ Toughness Break Animations for New Saviors
[Witch of Favoritism], [Executor: Gille], [Butterfly Dream: Lacy], and [Nightfall's Eve: Carnelia] will all have Toughness Break animations.
When [Witch of Favoritism]’s Toughness is broken, her blindfold comes off, revealing a different expression and a new side of her charm.
We hope you enjoy discovering these animations in battle.

The 1st Anniversary update includes two major events. The Main Story event comes first, followed by the year-end event.
Each type of Observation Ticket has its own eligible targets and usage period. Please check both before using your tickets.
We have also prepared rewards to help you develop your Saviors and optimize your Gear. We hope you will take part throughout the event period.
