Developer HoYoverse is back to invite all Trailblazers to take part in the First Penaconian Holy Grail War! The event kicks off tomorrow, July 11, introducing two new characters, Saber and Archer, a new gripping storyline, and more!
Trailblazers are recommended to experience this content after completing the Trailblaze Mission “Penacony” — “Stranger in a Strange Land” and the Trailblaze Continuance “Battles Without Ninja and Humanity.”
“An omnipotent wish-granting chalice — the Holy Grail — has descended upon the planet of dream-chase. The Holy Grail War in Penacony is about to unfold…”
Sweet Dreams and Holy Grail War Event Details:
- In Fate/stay night, Trailblazers will participate in the Holy Grail War alongside 7 simulated characters. After multiple 1v1 showdowns, a final victor will be decided.
- Opposing players will summon monsters to battle Trailblazers. To claim victory, Trailblazers must eliminate all enemies before the action Cycles run out.
- After each Cycle of combat, the losing side will have their HP deducted by a certain amount. When HP drops to zero, the contender is defeated and will leave the field.
- After each instance of combat, Trailblazers will earn a certain amount of Star Coins and enter the shop where they can purchase pieces. These pieces can provide combat buffs for Trailblazers.
- Pieces fall into seven distinct Classes. Having enough pieces of the same type will trigger a Bond bonus, giving your team extra perks.
- Trailblazers will also get to choose Noble Phantasms/Mystic Codes and Command Spells during the Holy Grail War. Noble Phantasm/Mystic Code can provide buffs for the entire round. Command Spells grant special effects tied to pieces, Bonds, the shop, etc.
- Complete the Eve of the War challenge to unlock Corruption Mode. In this mode, both you and your opponents gain extra buffs.
- In the event gameplay, each opponent will come with their own Unique Skills. After every Cycle, they’ll gain new enhancement affixes to further boost their monsters’ strength.
Note that after the limited-time event ends, you will no longer be able to acquire the corresponding limited-time rewards. However, you will still be able to visit the Radiant Feldspar map to experience and obtain permanent rewards.
UBW Collab Character – Saber
Saber, 5-star Wind Destruction, is a new character that will be available exclusively through the Collaboration Warp. She is a solitary Heroic spirit traverses the long night of fate, wielding Excalibur. Alas, the knight-king of Camelot has yet to reach that ever distant utopia.
Saber can deal massive damage to all enemies with her Ultimate. Her unique trait is that she gains Energy and Core Resonance stacks when her allies use their Ultimates. In turn, Core Resonance also increases the damage done by Saber: using her Skill allows her to consume all charges of it and fully regenerate her Energy, ready to unleash another Excalibur hit.
UBW Collab Character – Archer
From July 11 and until the end of Version 3.6, Trailblazers can claim a free copy of 5-star Quantum Hunt character, Archer.
He is a DPS who can repeatedly use his Skill within the same turn. After a teammate uses an attack, Archer consumes his Charge to launch a follow-up on the enemy and recover Skill Point(s).
For his Ultimate, he uses the iconic Unlimited Blade Works, dealing Quantum damage to one designated enemy target and gaining Charge. Note that the maximum number of Charges is capped.
