Tomb Raiding

Event Time
After the version update on October 30, 2026 ~ November 27, 2026, 04:59:59
Event Description
Perhaps during your travels in Weiyang City, you have already heard rumors that the Wen family's ancestors built their fortune by plundering tombs. Now, another ancient tomb said to hold the secret treasures of a former dynasty is about to appear.
"Tomb Raiding" is divided into two modes, "Treasure Hunt" and "Bloodbath", which differ in how rankings are determined. In "Bloodbath" mode, rankings are decided solely by the number of defeats. In "Treasure Hunt" mode, you earn points only by turning the treasures you have found in to the "Bagua Well". Once a treasure carrier is defeated, all the spoils they carry drop on the spot, paving the way for others. Besides the two modes, more than 20 kinds of strange events await wanderers. They appear randomly at the start of each round, affecting the strategy and experience of the whole match. At the same time, "Tomb Raiding" will support a bot mode, allowing wanderers to play solo with no social pressure and no competitive pressure. Take part in the event to receive rich rewards, including the emote [A Hair's Breadth], the decor [Risk for Reward], and [Lingering Melody · Bound].
