Stop the Mana Frenzy Dynamic Event

The Stop the Mana Frenzy event takes place at Manawastes. Rankings are based on how many Demonic Manastones are turned in. You can acquire Demonic Manastones by slaying any monsters in the region. When monsters die, they buff other mobs around them. Buffed mobs drop more Demonic Manastones.

Event Timing

• 2 minutes after all Magic Circles are filled with 500 Demonic Manastones, the Magic Circles reset to 0.
• Alison gives an additional notice 30 seconds before all Magic Circles reset to 0: "Soon, we'll need more magic to strengthen the central barrier. Get ready to use the five Magic Circles again."

Event Details

Enchanted Mobs

Once you kill a mob, you see something red transfer to two other mobs, buffing them. When a mob gets two of these buffs, they are enchanted and drop many more Demonic Manastones.

So, if you want to efficiently farm the tokens, you should constantly manage the buffs mobs have as you kill them. This is harder if the area is crowded, but consequently, more mobs spawn.

Turn In Points

There is 1 turn-in point in the middle and 5 turn-in points located towards the corners of the map: Flame, Earthquake, Tidal Wave, Dark, and Storm. The 5 turn-in points in the corners of the map only accept up to 500 Demonic Manastones. Whoever turns in enough to make it reach 500, receives an additional 50 Tokens for completion. There is no cap to the amount of Demonic Manastones the central turn-in point accepts.

Tips

• During Dominion Events, turning in a couple is usually enough to get ranked in the top 40. If you want to place top 10, try and turn in frequently. I usually find the westmost and the southmost turn-in locations the easiest as the respawn points in Dominion are concentrated towards the center to the top right part of the map.
• If you don't want to share Demonic Manastones with anyone who tags your mobs, make a party. Being in a party prevents anyone outside your party from sharing drops. You can generate your own party, by clicking the party icon and clicking "Generate Invitation Link". No one else needs to join.
• If the event is crowded, it can work in your favor if you're a ranged player and can tag the mob faster than others. If you're a Melee, tagging mobs is a bit harder.
• The southwestern portion of the zone is almost entirely filled with Basilisks. If you don't want to spend any brainpower to block Evil Eye's Fury Attacks, then you can go here. Beware, Basilisks have a higher health pool.

Rewards

Coming in at the top ranks for Stop the Mana Frenzy unlocks the Amitoi Emperor Eagle. For Peace Events, you are ranked on how well you do individually. In Dominion Events, your team is ranked based on the total contribution of their players, and you are then ranked individually for your own contribution to the team. For Guild Events, your guild is ranked on how well they do versus other guilds.

Activity gain is now based on personal performance rewards and has no bearing on your placement at the Event. The more points you score, the higher your Activity will go up to a cap.
