Players can also gain even more Rise Coins through new Rise Events, including:
- Eileen’s Support Event: Complete ‘Eileen’s Support’ quest to obtain ‘Eileen’s Support’ skill. The skill activates when hunting monsters near a player’s level. As players eliminate monsters to reach training goals, they will obtain a heap of Rise Coins.
