Introduction
- This is a rerun of the Valentine's 2018 Event. The event is mainly a farming event with a short linear Main Quest. However, new Free Quests have been added and the drops are different compared to the previous event.
- Goals for this event:
- Complete the Main Quest line (x3 Saint Quartz + Valentine's CE from Mash)
- Farm Baking Chocolate to buy desired items from the Event Shop
- Farm Coin Choco to obtain limited Valentine's CEs and to turn into Baking Chocolate
- Complete the Challenge Quest
- New Event CEs will be made available during this rerun. Additionally, Event CEs from the last year can be equipped for drop bonuses.
- To ease the farming process, all types of Coin Choco can be exchanged for Baking Chocolate at a 1:1 rate.
/////// x1 -> x1 - All Coin Choco is most valuable since they can be exchanged for Coin Choco of any other class at a 1:1 rate.

Free Quest Farming Walkthrough
- Below is a brief overview of the Free Quest unlock conditions and drops. For detailed farming tips and information, especially for Masters who do not have Gacha CEs, check out the Farming Guide!
- TL;DR: Clear Free Quests from Novice to highest difficulty, and farm the highest difficulty available. Better Free Quests unlock on Day 2, 3 and 4; avoid apple usage until then.
- Choco Coin of All have a chance of dropping from all Free Quests.
- Choco Coins of Saber only drop from Saber-class enemies, Choco Coins of Archer only drop from Archer-class enemies, and so on.
- Strictly speaking, higher difficulty Free Quests are more efficient for Choco Coins and Baking Chocolate.
- Chocolate Mold items force a specific class of enemy to spawn, and greatly aid in improving drops as higher drop bonus gacha CEs can be safely used as well as borrowed from friends.
- Chocolate Molds are bought from the shop for only x10 Baking Chocolate, and rewarded liberally from Free Quest completion and Log-in Bonuses.
- Thus, use Chocolate Molds for every quest and buy them if needed. They are technically inefficient to use on the low AP quests, but can speed up shop CE acquisition early on.
- Do not buy more Chocolate Molds than needed from the shop - turning them into QP is inefficient. Consider saving the Caster and Berserker Chocolate Molds to be able to farm valuable monster materials in the Royale difficulty. See Ascension Material farming for more details.
