Halloween Rising 2023 - Quick Farming Guide

Introduction

  • Free Quests during this event unlock on a daily basis with Main Quest completion. As usual, the later nodes have better drop rates, with the Strange Hut (multi-currency) node having the best AP efficiency overall.
  • There are three event currencies (Poisonous AppleCandy HouseSesame Charm), whose rates are boosted by event gacha CEs (White Princess of Silver FlowersLittle Cat RondoProtagonista).
  • The Event Shop and Event Point Ladder CEs also boost enemy drop rate. Prioritize reaching +100% Enemy Drop rate over currency bonus, since this more greatly improves overall drop rates, and also improves Ascension Mat rates. The correct CE to bring to each quest is listed in the at-a-glance table, and enemy types are summarized below:
    • Jade Hairpin - Oni/Tin/Pumpkin Enemies
    • Tiny Dressmaker - Scarecrow/Toy/Ghost Enemies
    • Bare Kings - Monkey/Snake/Fairy Tale (Marchen) Enemies
  • There are also three types of points (Cinderella PointsSnow White PointsRed Riding Hood Points), which do not have a CE bonus available, but indirectly get boosted by Spawn Bonus. These are required for Main Quest progression.
  • For this event, the best farming location without any currency bonus is generally the multi-currency node that unlocks on Day 7. The post-epilogue single-currency nodes are more AP-efficient if Masters can stack at least +2 bonus drops of that single currency over all other currency bonuses, which is easier if gacha CEs are available since only one type of Spawn Bonus CE is required. Otherwise multi-currency farming is better. For farming, Bonus Spawn should still be prioritized over Currency Bonus.
  • Event Bonus Servants will gain bonus Damage and Bond EXP during event quests!

Ascension Mat Farming Comparison Table (Free Quests)

  • For this event, certain Free Quests have better drop rates for some Ascension Materials than existing Free Quests in Singularities/Lostbelts.
  • The table below summarizes material drop rates in comparison to campaign free quest farming locations.
  • APD = AP per drop, where less AP required per drop is better.
