Ride or Die
Quick Overview
Take on up to 5 bosses each week by choosing your difficulty level and setting challenges.
Requirement: Lv. 200 and above (Zero characters that completed Story Quest Act 2).
The higher the difficulty and number of challenges, the greater the rewards will be and a higher final score you'll receive!
Earn rewards like Inspector Coins, Kazax’s Energy Fragments, and weekly Inspector Supply Boxes based on your final score.
How to Participate
Select ‘Ride or Die’ from the Event List and click ‘Participate’ to start the Ride or Die event.
Upon accepting the quest, you’ll be teleported to the event map, where you’ll meet Libae, a new inspector who urgently needs your help to save Maple World!
Setting Boss Difficulty and Challenges
Face off against up to 5 bosses per week by choosing your difficulty and how many challenges you want to take on. The 5 bosses you can challenge are:
Papulatus
Vellum
Horntail
Darknell
Magnus
There are four difficulties to choose from:
Code B: Easy
Code A: Normal
Code S: Hard
Code X: Extreme
Code X Requirements: Only your weapon, secondary weapon, and emblem can be equipped for this challenge. Swapping equipment will be disabled during battle.
Test your strength and limits in Code X to earn the highest reward box and a large number of Kazax fragments! With different bosses and fewer challenges this time, Code X is the perfect chance to push for a high score.
Ready for a challenge? You can set up to 15 challenges and one will be randomly assigned to you during each run. The following challenges are available:
The score multiplier for challenges have been increased, so the more challenges you take on, the higher your weekly score will be!
You have a total of 20 lives shared across all 5 bosses per week. If you lose them all, you’re done for the week!
Use Practice Mode to familiarize yourself with the bosses! Speak with Libae to adjust the difficulty level and challenges as needed.
Practice Mode is unavailable for Code X difficulty.
An Investigation Result summary will appear when you successfully defeat a boss, showing your current Investigation Score and Weekly Score. Scores are calculated based on:
Chosen difficulty
Number of challenges set
Death count
Althea's Support
Althea is here to support you during fights! Once inside the boss map, you’ll receive Althea’s Support, a special skill that charges support up to Lv. 3 as you fight.
Charge the skill by collecting support! The more support you receive, the more powerful Althea’s Support skill effect will be!
The amount of support required to charge each level is 150.
For every 15 support gained, one skill gauge slot fills.
Receive a small amount of support at regular intervals.
Receive a great amount of support when your character touches a summoned object.
The object spawns at a random location every 30 seconds and disappears after a certain amount of time.
Once the gauge is full, press the Interact key to activate one of Althea’s support skills at random. These help clear summoned enemies and disrupt Kazax’s interference.
Right-click the skill icon to toggle between automatic or manual activation.
Kazax's Interference
Kaxaz isn’t going to fight fair, so stay sharp! He’ll appear alongside bosses and randomly uses skills that interfere with your fight.
Weekly Total Score Rewards
Defeat bosses to also earn usable items and Silver, Bronze, or Gold Inspector Coins which can be spent at the Coin Shop for exclusive rewards!
Each week after the event reset, you'll receive a Weekly Total Score which will determine:
Which Inspector's Supply Box you receive
How many Kazax's Energy Fragments you earn
There are six levels of Inspector’s Supply Boxes that can be obtained. Score higher to receive higher-level boxes.
You can only claim 1 box a week per account. Rewards can only be claimed after the event weekly reset.
Rewards for Week 6 can be claimed immediately after completing that week's challenge.
