Random Encounters

The Endless War has many ways to earn rewards. The majority of rewards come in the form of Random Encounters.

Other ways to earn rewards in the Endless War include Quests and Arenas.

Random Encounters are shorter than quests (they can usually be done in one sitting), and are mostly combat-related. Many of them allow adventurers to team-up with each other (usually in groups of up to 3) to face off against NPC opponents!

Random Encounters are given on a timely basis. Most repeat within a few weeks or months, however, so you shouldn't feel too depressed if you are unable to complete an encounter the first time it's given! An exception to that rule is Seasonal Random Encounters. These usually stay up for a longer period of time, and are tougher and more rewarding than others. However, they usually do not repeat throughout the year, meaning that you need to get it done at the first time it's given.

Random Encounter schedule
The normal schedule for a random encounter is as follows:

-Random Encounter is posted

-1 week later- rewards are posted

-1 week after that- random encounter is locked.

Basic Encounter info
Random Encounters come in various lengths and types, and not all of them are directly combat related! However, all of them use the same Endless War system (using stat + skill + timestamp rolls in order to see various outcomes). Most encounters ARE repeatable, meaning that if you fail them then you can attempt them again. However, any 1-use items or scrolls will not be refunded for retries (unless specifically stated so on the encounter.)

Failure in a Random Encounter usually means that you must attempt the encounter once again, but has no effect on rewards. However, you can only gain rewards when you successfully complete the Random Encounter, unless otherwise stated.
