Missable Checks
Look for one-time rewards before the timer becomes the problem
Avoid assuming every event reward is automatic. Some checks depend on map taps, keys, shop review, or live timers.
- The Wandering Merchant event adds route markers and unlocks after story clears, so revisit the event screen after each chapter.
- Bamboo Soldier challenge conditions (no 200+ damage, no 400+ damage, no deaths) are one-time rewards per tier; confirm all are cleared.
- 20 free Killer Machine gacha tickets (10 from exchange shop, 10 from Bamboo Soldier points) should be claimed before the event ends.
- Event shop exchange deadline is July 21, 2026 at 11:59 JST — same as the gacha deadline. Review limited items before the timer ends.
- Volatile timing can change. Check the in-game timer/details before making last-day decisions.
