Hello Dragon Hunters,
In our ongoing efforts to enhance player agency and reward progression, we'd like to introduce a new kind of reward: Gift of the Eternal.
Our goal with that new reward is to provide meaningful choices that respect your time and investment in the game.
By allowing you to select rewards that align with your goals, we aim to enhance your gameplay experience and the feeling of overall progression.
What is a Gift of the Eternal?
Like any other equipment, fragments and ingredients, Eternal Gift drops on the ground.
Interacting with an Eternal Gift opens a window where you’ll be given a choice between the following options:
- Equipment: A weapon or armor piece, randomly selected
- Ancestral Fragment: Random type and rarity
- Ingredients: A bundle of 20, randomly selected
Additionally, you'll receive Experience Points for your character.
You have 2 rerolls available, allowing you to refresh your 3 rewards.
Note: Once a selection is confirmed, it is final, and the chosen item will appear directly on the ground.
Where to find a Gift of the Eternal?
Gift of the Eternal can appear during the main storyline and endgame content.
In the Story
Defeating major adversaries such as semi-bosses or bosses will grant you an Eternal Gift, acknowledging your accomplishments. Some key events also grant a guaranteed Eternal Gift.
In Endgame Hunts
Each Hunt comprises multiple areas, and the total duration influences the number of potential Gift of the Eternal awarded. Longer, more challenging Hunts yield greater rewards.
In Dungeon Purifications
At the end of a Dungeon Purification, multiple chests appear. Based on your performance and progression within the dungeon, you increase your chances to obtain an Eternal Gift.
In the Test of Will
Your performance in the Test of Will determines the number of Gift of the Eternal you are guaranteed to receive upon completion. Higher tiers achieved equate to more Gifts.

Target farming by customizing your own Gift of the Eternal
To tailor Gift of the Eternal to your preferences, a dedicated customization tab is available on the Hunting Board.
Here, you can adjust parameters to influence the types of rewards offered, aligning them with your current objectives or build requirements.
These customization options unlock progressively as you complete Hunts.
These options let you target farm deeper into what you’re looking for:

Okay, that's all we have for this week.
Thanks again for all the support, it truly means a lot to us! Stay happy, stay healthy, and please remember to take good care of yourself. Enjoy the May day holidays if you have a day off and we’ll be back before you know it.
Sadly, you’ll have to wait just a tad longer before you can try the new features of The City and drop Gift of the Eternal. But worry not, we’ll have a huge Patch Notes ready for you to read in the few weeks, along with even more news to share!
