Summary
Snowflake Argos Event
The Holy Beast Argos has been reimagined as a standalone 8-player event encounter on the Valtan 0 platform. Running from May 13 to July 15, 2026, this event challenges players to utilize Perfect Blocks and Counterattacks to earn Snowflake Argos Coins. The encounter is split into two Item Level brackets (1640–1719 and 1720+) and can be completed three times per week.
Mechanics and Rewards
Players earn coin buffs during the battle which scale rewards upon completion. If a player dies, their buffs scatter and can be collected by teammates. Rewards are distributed in tiers ranging from Bronze (270 coins) to Platinum (330 coins), with additional bonuses for high stack counts. These coins can be exchanged at a dedicated Event Shop for high-tier honing materials, engravings, and astrogems.
