Season Graduation and Early Graduation

Introduction

Graduating sounds really complicated and can be a daunting task, but don’t worry, we’re going to take you through it step by step.

The next season starts on 24th May 2023.
All characters automatically graduate and the graduation rewards are sent to your mail (B) when the season ends.
You then have 1 week to convert all your gear. If you miss or forget to convert your gear, the highest-enhanced Tuvala gear will be converted for you automatically.

Graduation Rewards

When you graduate, you will receive your graduation rewards, including the icon Gift Box Full of Memories containing various useful items.

But the gear can no longer be enhanced and is bound to family.

How to Graduate/Early Graduation

What is early graduation?

Players have the option to graduate early if they want to. Graduating yourself allows you to receive all of the end-of-season rewards early and turn your character into a regular character, meaning you can now equip all other gear options and start working towards PEN boss gear. If you do graduate early, you cannot create another season character during the same season.

What do I need to do first?

Ideally, you will have full PEN Tuvala weapons and armor
Completed the entire Season Pass and collected all the rewards
Sold or exchanged your spare Time-Filled Blackstones and other spare materials

Should you Early Graduate?

Personally, I would recommend not to early graduate from the Season unless you already have PEN boss gear ready to equip, or have literally gotten everything you possibly can out of the season. Even if you have full PEN Tuvala and are eager to join the normal servers, remember that extra season items such as Time-filled Blackstones can be sold to vendors for quite a lot of silver.

Early graduation will become available on 12th April 2023.

How to start your Graduation

If you haven’t used your Fughar’s Timepiece yet, it’s time to use it now!

Fughar’s Timepiece can be obtained from Fughar and we are going to use it to get a FREE level 61 character. This is going to COPY your current level and some skill EXP onto the character you choose.

You can either create a new character or use a character under level 25.
Unequip all the gear on your Season character.
Right-click Fughar’s Timepiece and select the new character.
Use the Timepiece!
The new character will have coupons to swap your Tuvala weapons. Don’t worry about this, these coupons are only there if you want to change your season character to a different season character. You can ignore them if you want to keep the gear on your original character.
Put your Tuvala gear into storage.
Now do the graduation process on your NEW character.

If you don’t want to use Fughar’s Timepiece, you can simply delete it to continue with the graduation process.

If you want to use Fughar’s Timpiece, you must use it before you Graduate from the Season Server.

To graduate early, you simply go to Fughar and tell him “I want to convert my season character to a regular character”.

Follow his directions to Leyla. She will have a quest for you called [Season Server Graduation] At the Crossroad

Go back to Fughar to complete the quest. He will then have the quest [Season Server Graduation] Into the Big Wide World.
This quest will only show up and can only be completed if you have collected both of the Fughar’s Timepieces and either used or deleted them from your inventory.

You will be given an item called “Honorable Adventurer’s Certificate”.
You must move to a regular channel and use the Honorable Adventure’s Certificate. This will convert your season character to a regular character (this cannot be undone).
- Make sure you have unequipped all season gear (including your Riding Crop)
- Make sure you have completed and used or deleted Fughar’s Timepiece
- Make sure you have claimed everything from your season pass
After you have converted to a regular character, you can go back to Fughar again and speak with him to complete the quest. He will then give you your season rewards.

If you just used your Fughar’s Timepiece and want to keep the gear on your original character, place the gear into storage, then collect your Tuvala gear on your NEW character. The Season Graduation rewards are character bound, so you have to use the Conversion Stones on your new character. All this does is change the gear to normal gear (see guide section below). The Conversion Stones do not change the weapons to a different class, so they are safe to use. After you’ve completed the conversion, put the gear back into storage again and collect it on your original character.

Converting your Tuvala to Normal Gear

Now that you are a normal character and no longer a season character, you need to convert your Tuvala gear from a “Season item” to a “Normal item” so that you can wear it. All this does is change the restrictions for wearing the item, it does not change the item in any other way. For example, if you have a PEN Tuvala Longsword, it will still be a PEN Tuvala Longsword after you have converted it.

You will get Conversion stones from the Graduation rewards.

The Conversion Stones will be in a icon Tuvala Conversion Stone Box

Right-click a conversion stone to open the window automatically, or speak to your Black Spirit and choose the “Item Reform” option.
Use Conversion Stones on each piece of Tuvala gear you would like to keep.

There is 1 conversion stone for each Weapon/Armor, 1 for your necklace and belt, and then 2 for your rings and earrings, meaning you can convert one full set of gear.
Make sure to select the correct piece of gear! If you do select the wrong piece of gear, send a ticket and they will help you get it sorted out, but will only do this once per account.
The converted Tuvala gear will be changed to Family bound and can now be used by any of your characters.
Check the next section of the guide for information about the Boss Gear Exchange coupon and your next gear options.

You can only convert one full set of Tuvala gear. Unconverted Tuvala gear will be deleted at the start of the next Season.

Exchanging Tuvala Gear for Boss Gear

After graduating from the season, you have 2 options and will want to take advantage of both of them.

Option 1: Boss Exchange Coupon

You will be given a [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon when you graduate each season.
This can be used to change ONE PEN Tuvala gear into TET boss gear.
The TET boss gear can be enhanced and you can put caphras into it.
You are limited to which gear it will exchange to (Eg. Kutum only).
You cannot sell it on the central market.
You can exchange this gear at Jetina later on if you want to.

Option 2: Jetina Boss Exchange

Jetina Boss Exchange is can be done ONCE per account.
You can exchange ONE FULL SET of TET boss gear.
You can choose between the different boss gear options (eg. Kutum or Nouver)
You CANNOT enhance this gear or put caphras into it.
You can only turn this gear into PEN using the guaranteed PEN boss gear method.
You cannot sell it on the central market.

Boss Exchange Coupon (Optional)

If you are a new player, you can ignore the boss exchange coupon and don’t have to use it. Instead skip to the next section and exchange all your gear at Jetina.

If this is not your first season, or you are a returning player, you can use the coupon, but don’t have to. Personally, I like to use the coupon on one item so I can try to enhance it to PEN straight away using cron stones. This way, if the enhancement fails, it won’t downgrade and I can still swap it at Jetina, or if I’m lucky and it goes to PEN, I saved myself a lot of money. A good piece to choose for this is the Kutum weapon, because then you can also get the Nouver from Jetina at a later date if you want to for a PVP offhand option.

To use the Boss Exchange Coupon, you must first make sure you have graduated and converted the tuvala gear to regular gear using the Conversion Stones.

Then go to Fughar and accept the quest for the gear piece you would like to exchange:

Quest Name	Item Obtained
[Season] Even Sharper Weapon: Kzarka Main Weapon	Kzarka Mainhand Weapon Box (open on any class)
[Season] Even Sharper Weapon: Kutum Sub-weapon	Kutum Mainhand Weapon Box (open on any class)
[Season] Even Sharper Weapon: Dandelion Awakening Weapon	Dandelion Awakening Weapon Box (open on any class)
[Season] Even Sturdier Armor: Giath’s Helmet	Giath’s Helmet (not recommended)
[Season] Even Sturdier Armor: Dim Tree Spirit’s Armor	Dim Tree Spirit’s Armor (not recommended)
[Season] Even Sturdier Armor: Muskan’s Shoes	Muskan’s Shoes (not recommended for new players)
[Season] Even Sturdier Armor: Bheg’s Gloves	Bheg’s Gloves

After accepting the correct quest, go to Tranan Underfoe (the blacksmith in Velia) and use the “Chat” option. He will exchange your gear for you.

Then follow our guaranteed PEN boss gear guide to exchange the rest of your gear and begin the journey to full boss gear!

Jetina’s Guarenteed PEN Boss Gear

At this point, you also need to make a decision whether to go for Damage Reduction armors or Evasion armors. The choice depends on your playstyle and class, but in most cases, you are recommened to go with Damage Reduction armors as a new player.

I recommend reading through our Damage Reduction VS Evasion guide/discussion, which will teach you how these important stats work.

The recommended armor and weapons are shown below:

Ultimately Red Rose will be replaced by Fallen God Armor, and Griffon helmet will be replaced by Labreska Helmet.
The reason you are recommended to take Red Nose Armor instead of Dim Tree Spirit’s Armor is because it requires fewer caphras to level up, meaning you will save silver when upgrading to Fallen God Armor

Damage Reduction Armors (recommended for new players)	Evasion Armors
⇒ Griffon’s Helmet ⇒ Labreska Helmet	⇒ Griffon’s Helmet ⇒ Labreska Helmet
⇒ Red Nose Armor ⇒ Fallen God Armor	⇒ Red Nose Armor ⇒ Fallen God Armor
Urugon’s Shoes	Muskan’s Shoes
Bheg’s Gloves	Leebur’s Gloves

Weapon Choices
Kzarka Weapon (recommended)	Offin Tett’s Weapon
Dandelion Weapon
Kutum Weapon (PVE Option – Recommended)	Nouver Weapon (PVP Option)

Weapon Choices

Kzarka Weapon

(recommended)

Offin Tett’s Weapon

Dandelion Weapon

Kutum Weapon

(PVE Option – Recommended)

Nouver Weapon

(PVP Option)

Once you’ve decided which gear you would like to select, begin the exchange at NPC Jetina.

Jetina's PEN Boss Gear Guide

Enhancing armors and weapons becomes more expensive with each one, so it is recommended to only enhance 2 Armors and 1 Weapon with Jetina’s Method.

For the armors, complete the Magnus Questline to obtain a FREE PEN Griffon’s Helmet, then use Jetina’s Method for your Red Nose and Bheg’s Gloves. Finally, buy PEN Urugons from the central market.

For the weapons, use Jetina’s Method to get your Kutum offhand to Reform level 4. The only difference between level 4 and a PEN Kutum, is 1 accuracy. You can then buy TET Blackstar for your mainhand or awakening (buy the mainhand Blackstar if you are awakening spec, and awakening Blackstar if you are succession spec). For your other weapon slot, keep that at TET for now.

Season’s Special Reward

You can receive Fughar’s Special Reward if you have a level 20 or higher Season Character, or have graduated on that character.
First complete a simple quest by talking to Fughar:

NPC	Acceptance Requirement	Quest Objective	Rewards
Fughar	A Lv. 20 or higher season character or a character that has completed the “[Season Server Graduation] Into the Big Wide World” quest	Talk to Fughar	Season Special Gift Exchange Coupon x1 Cron Stone x50 Fresh Orange Juice x10 Sweet Wild Berry Juice x10 Sour Green Grape Juice x10

The special reward can be obtained by exchanging the “Season Gift Exchange Coupon” at Fughar.

You can choose between any of the rewards if you have not already claimed them.

It is recommended to choose the PEN Capotia Necklace because it rewards the highest AP.

However, if you already obtained the TRI Capotia Necklace from the (Y) Challenge Rewards (see image below), select the PEN Capotia Belt instead for your Season Special Reward.

[2020 Summer Season]	PEN (V) Capotia Earring	PEN (V) Capotia Ring
	(Select ONE of the above)
[2020 Autumn Season]	Perilla’s Star
[2020  Winter Season ]	PEN (V) Capotia Belt
[2021 Summer Season]	PEN (V):  Capotia Necklace
[2021 Season+]	Advice of Valks (+100)
All New and Future Seasons	Advice of Valks (+100) Box

Post-Graduation – What to do next

After graduating from the season server, you may feel confused and unsure of what to do next. My best advice is to set yourself small goals.

You may want to start by collecting certain treasure items, such as:

As for your gear, there is still plenty to do! The first things you may want to start working toward (if you haven’t already) are the guaranteed PEN boss gear and PEN accessory from Jetina. There are also several Adventure Logs to complete, and other objectives/questlines, such as the Magnus questline.

You will also have access to the Progression Pass by clicking the icon in the top left. The progression pass is similar to the Season Pass, but you can complete the objectives in your own time. You may already have completed some of the objectives, and can accept the rewards by clicking any glowing objectives. For the “Game Tips” category, you can also just click these to complete them.

If you need a bit of help and aren’t sure what to do next in terms of gear or personal goals, check our Gear Progression guide, or feel free to hop into our discord to ask questions!
