[Hyper Summer] Washed Up Guests
Emergency! Marine creatures who picked up VIP invitations that fell into the sea due to a delivery accident are flocking to the Gold Richie Resort, claiming they are guests too!
Help Gold Richie, who is troubled by these uninvited guests, and protect the resort's morning.
Maplers who successfully suppress the commotion will be rewarded with special gifts prepared by the resort!
📅 Event Period
June 11, 2026 (After Maintenance) - July 1,2026, 23:59 (UTC)
✅ Eligibility
All Minted Characters of level 65 or above, that have completed the “[Hyper Summer] An Invitation to VIP” quest.
👉 How to Participate
- Accept the “[Hyper Summer] Washed Up Guests” quest either through the Event Notifier or by talking with NPC Nicole in the Gold Richie Resort event map.

- After accepting the quest, defeating monsters near your level (20 levels below and 20 levels above) in your hunting field will drop a ‘Waterlogged Pass’ by a low chance.
- Upon using a ‘Waterlogged Pass’
, the event monster ‘Seaside Octopus Slime’ will be summoned for 1 minute. - Defeating the event monster rewards a certain amount of Gold Richie Coins and the field's Rotation NESO.
※ If there is no remaining Rotation NESO in the field, NESO cannot be obtained by defeating event monsters or monsters near your level. - Collect 10 ‘Waterlogged Pass’ items and exchange them for 1 ‘Pristine Pass’
through the “[Hyper Summer] Washed Up Guests” quest dialogue in the Event Notifier.

- Upon using a ‘Pristine Pass’, the event monster ‘Holiday Captain Darkgoo’ will be summoned.
※ Event monsters summoned with a ‘Pristine Pass’ provide higher EXP efficiency than those summoned with a ‘Waterlogged Pass’.
※ However, the amount of NESO dropped remains the same regardless of the type of event monster, and additional Rotation NESO can be obtained if there is a remaining amount in the field.
