↖ Event Dates

The Server Slam event lasts from Friday, May 12th at noon Pacific Time until Sunday, May 14th at noon Pacific Time. It's worth noting that this event is one day shorter than previous beta weekends.

↖ Bonus Item for Killing Ashava

The world boss Ashava will return in the Server Slam event, and if you defeat it at level 20, you'll receive a mount trophy in the full game. Ashava will spawn on Saturday, May 13th at 9am Pacific Time and then for every three hours afterwards, until Sunday, May 14th at 9am Pacific Time.
