The September 11 announcement lists Parade Masks from gathering, monsters and login; Golden Compasses from gathering and monsters; and Star Trail Coins from daily check-ins. Paid sources also exist.

Claim the available daily rewards and collect extras through your normal routine. Check the shop’s currency and countdown before chasing a prize. More hunting is only worthwhile if the extra rewards justify the stamina.

DEFENSE WATCH

Sea Spirit’s Pearl Radiance lists an ownership debuff of enemy mounted attack -20% when defending. Crystal Abyss lists -25% without that defending qualifier. Both tiers also list siege bonuses.

These are separate tier descriptions, not a verified combined -45%. Nor does an attack debuff promise an equal reduction in casualties. Defense and siege players have something to investigate; a mounted monster benefit is not established by these listed effects.

OWNED OR EQUIPPED?

The official notice places both tiers’ mounted-attack debuffs under ownership. Their activation does not require equipping Sea Spirit. The listed equipped effects concern siege troops; Crystal Abyss also reduces enemy siege defense and HP while equipped.

Kat’s advice: if the mounted-attack debuff is your goal, do not switch your equipped domain just for that bonus. Compare the effects you would gain with those you would give up. Ownership and equipment are different decisions. The wardrobe does not need a promotion.

CHECK THE SHELVES

Revelry Carnival lists Demetrius I, Vercingetorix and Minerva’s Staff of Wisdom among rewards. Free and paid currencies differ. Lost Treasures pairs City on Water with Surging Waves for the Crown of the Sea collection.

King’s Party lists a Trap Factory Officer’s Crown Scroll at cake level 10. A reward listed in an event is not automatically a free reward. The cake remains financially ambitious.

DEMETRIUS: CHECK THE JOB

Theria Games’ September 12 guide lists Demetrius I’s base skill as siege attack/defense +65% and ranged/siege HP +50%, only while attacking.

Kat’s reading: that condition does not make him a wall upgrade, and those troop-specific bonuses do not establish a mounted-monster improvement. Siege attackers should compare him at affordable development, with a compatible partner, before replacing a finished general. A rally label is not a job description.

DEMETRIUS: CHECK THE GAP

Update 2026-09-13: Top Game Strategies’ September 11 player guide reports 720 Emerald Brooches per Demetrius I. It lists 50 Party Invitations in total from Celebration Levels 5, 10, 15 and 20, yielding 50 brooches. On those figures, milestone rewards alone leave a 670-brooch shortfall for one copy. Other sources may reduce that gap.

These are community-reported figures, not a verified price for every server. Check your shop price, milestone rewards, conversion and expiry before buying. Reaching a shop’s unlock level does not fund its rewards. Before using saved recruitment tokens, confirm Demetrius appears in that token’s displayed reward pool.

WAIT FOR THE PRICE

Sea Spirit uses Deep-Sea Dewdrops, obtained by exchanging Starlit Tickets in Grace of Star Trail. The announcement does not give the complete acquisition cost or event end date.

Before buying, check the full unlock requirement, free contribution, exchange rate and item expiry in your event. Then compare the remaining cost with an upgrade you already planned. An attractive percentage has not yet paid its own invoice.

Quiet win: collect what fits your routine; price the upgrade before funding the ocean.
