Event Duration: December 2 – January 13, 2021

Ready… set… go!

Daeva Dash has returned, and this time its cuter than ever! Transform into one of a variety of adorable animals and sprint your way around a farmland fantasy track for riches and rewards.

The Race

Transform your Daeva and enter the circuit for a 3v3 race through Atreia’s newest obstacle course: Animal Farm Race! The instance will be available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week during the event, and all players will receive one free entry per day with additional entries available via Luna or bonus entry scrolls. Bonus entry scrolls can be earned from event Lugbug Missions, and a tradeable version is available on the Black Cloud Marketplace.

Animal Farm Race consists of several stages, and as you make your attempts, a handy racing UI will display how far your team has progressed within the instance.

To make things more interesting, each player will begin the race with the same default skill: Power Dash. However, additional skills will be unlocked randomly by picking up power-ups as your make your way through the instance. You can view the available pickups below:

Icon Skill Name Effect
Power Dash Increases movement speed for a brief period.
Teleport Teleports forward and removes immobilization/slow effects.
Desperate Dispel Removes slow and root from allies in a radius.
Ankle Snare Greatly reduces enemies’ movement speed in a radius.
Fettertwine Immobilizes an enemy.

The Changes

For players familiar with the previous iteration of Daeva Dash, the racecourse itself has received numerous changes. These were made after the dev team heard feedback from Aion players in numerous regions and are aimed at improving your experience. Let us know what you think of them!

  • A windstream now passes through the entire foggy area, which previously used flight. Terrain has been placed to prevent falling when entering the windstream, and the lightning strikes have been removed.
  • Geysers have been deleted and replaced with ramps or other terrain that can be scaled.
  • The mount section has been removed. Now, players will interact with a door that moves them to the start of the next section.
  • Fixed some terrain where players could fall through the stage, and some bugs that affected resurrections in the instance.
  • Reduced the number of floating platforms to be jumped across.
  • Removed the gliding section to the finish line. Now, players will climb a staircase and drop into the finish area.

The Rewards

Each player lucky enough to win the race will receive 6 keys to the chest at the end of the race while tying or losing will result in 4 keys being awarded per player. Each chest will award a random number ofAnimal Farm Medals, the primary currency of the event. Animal Farm Medals and bonus entry scrolls can also be earned through special event missions.

  As you acquire Animal Farm Medals, you will want to take them to Dalishunerk, who will exchange them for the following rewards:
