Wheel Mechanics

The Wheel consists of 5 Fate Disks, represented by five colored slots from lowest to highest quality. Initially, only the first slot is activated.

Each time you infuse the energy, you will always receive the reward from the currently activated slot. At the same time, the system will then randomly determine one of the following:

▪ Activate the next slot, increasing the reward tier.

▪ Remain on the current slot.

▪ Reset back to the first slot. Rewards already obtained will never be lost.


Progress Rewards

Each infusion also fills the Progress Bar. Reach designated milestones to claim additional milestone rewards.

After all milestone rewards have been claimed, every additional set number of Infusions grants repeatable bonus rewards.


※Note:

▪ Any unused event currency will automatically be converted into Zeny at the specified exchange rate after the event ends and delivered via in-game mail.

▪ Any unclaimed wheel rewards will also be sent via mail after the event concludes.

W.O.C Pinnacle

Once the champions have been crowned, the event page will showcase every member of the championship team from your division.


Each day, you may visit the W.O.C Pinnacle page and Like one champion adventurer (once per account per day). Each Like grants a Thank-You Gift Pack.

When the event concludes:

- The adventurer who receives the most Likes across all participants will earn the exclusive title S4 Everyone's Favorite.

- The most popular champion in each region (Popularity > 0) will receive the Everyone's Favorite title.

※Note: Please refer to the in-game announcements and event calendar for the exact schedule. All times are based on your server time.

War of the Chosen S4

The gods have always watched over the continent of Midgard.


It is said that only those who prove themselves worthy may ascend beyond mortal limits and stand beside the gods as their chosen champions.


Yet among humanity, exceptional warriors continue to emerge—heroes whose strength rivals that of the divine itself.


Recognizing mankind's relentless pursuit of power, the Allfather decreed that the gods of Asgard would host the War of the Chosen, a grand tournament where elite warriors gather into teams to test their combat prowess, tactical wisdom, and teamwork.


Remember: Only the strongest shall be chosen.
