Final-year world boss and bonus-week reward planning
Make use of available world boss and bonus-week rewards while existing-owner servers remain online.
PC / English global live service, including PC and console cross-play content as of 2026-10-24. Only existing owners can access it; delisted January 15, 2026. Existing-owner service through Jan 31, 2027.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Use the world map’s current world boss markers and the active bonus-week information in game. Availability and rewards depend on the live event state.
New World remains available to existing owners through January 31, 2027, with world bosses and bonus weeks continuing during that period. This is a limited service window rather than a permanent farm: use the in-game map and event interface to find what is active, then join the available activity and check its reward preview before spending time on it. The specific boss, bonus, and rewards can vary, so this route does not assume a fixed schedule or guaranteed drop. Treat each event as a chance to collect its listed rewards, and keep track of what you still need before choosing another activity.

A character and combat setup suitable for the currently available boss or activity.
Check the active event and reward information in game before traveling.
Open the map and identify any currently available world boss activity.
Check the active bonus-week information and note the rewards or currencies it lists.
Choose the activity that matches a reward you still want.
Travel to the marked activity and join the available players or group for the encounter.
Defeat the boss or complete the active activity, then inspect the rewards actually granted.
Compare your resulting inventory or event currency with the goal you chose.
If a desired reward remains available, repeat the active activity or return when another relevant event is active.
Farming tips
Prioritize rewards that are limited to the current event window, but verify the active reward details before committing.
World boss participation and bonus weeks are ongoing features; the exact activity and reward should be checked in game rather than assumed from a past schedule.
Repeat, collect and use
Limited by the remaining service window for existing owners, ending January 31, 2027. World bosses and bonus weeks continue while servers are online, but individual activities and rewards may rotate or vary.
Common mistakes
Assuming a particular boss or bonus is active: check the current map and event interface first.
Expecting a guaranteed specific item: use the reward preview to set expectations and inspect what the activity grants.
Delaying a desired limited-window reward without checking its availability: prioritize it while the relevant activity is active.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you have collected the active reward you wanted, or switch to another available activity if the current event does not advance that goal.
