MIR4 is starting a new clan-focused collection event next week. The Spirit Portrait Event runs from Monday, Nov. 2nd, 01:00 to Monday, Nov. 9th, 01:00 (Regional Server Time). During that week, players collect eight different Spirit Portraits by hunting, swap duplicates with clanmates and push their clan up a ranking that rewards the top 20 clans with temporary buffs.
Any Spirit Portraits still in your inventory will be deleted when the event ends on Nov. 9th at 01:00, so it’s worth turning them in before then.
How collecting works
Spirit Portraits drop at random from monsters in the field, Elite monsters, the Labyrinth and Hidden Valley. You can track your progress from the event menu, the fire-cracker icon at the top left, under ‘Collect Spirit Portraits’.
- Gathering all eight portraits lets you claim a collection reward, up to five times per day, by pressing ‘Obtain’ on the event page.
- Your first completed set gives a Legendary Blue Dragon Statue. Each set after that gives one Shaoshao’s Treasure Bag.
- Every claimed set also earns collection points for your clan’s ranking.
- Missing portraits can be traded with clan members through the Exchange Center on the event page. You can only list one portrait per registration.
A couple of things to keep in mind: portraits you list in the Exchange Center and don’t pick up again are deleted if you leave the clan. The developers also say portrait drops depend on monster level, so check that you’re hunting in suitable areas.
Clan ranking and buffs
Clan standings are based on accumulated collection points and can be checked under [Menu] – [Ranking] – [Clan] – [Collect Portraits]. The ranking resets every day at 01:00 server time. Once the collection week is over, the ranked clans receive special buffs that last three weeks:
- 1st: 5% Drop Chance, 5% Lucky Drop Chance, 5% Hunting Copper and 5% Hunting EXP
- 2nd: 4% to all four stats
- 3rd: 3% to all four stats
- 4th–10th: 3% Drop Chance, Lucky Drop Chance and Hunting Copper
- 11th–15th: 3% Drop Chance and Lucky Drop Chance
- 16th–20th: 3% Drop Chance
The buffs belong to the clan, not to individual players. If you leave a ranked clan during the buff period you lose the bonus. Players who join a ranked clan during that time pick it up. If two clans finish on equal points, the clan with fewer members ranks higher. If membership is also equal, the clan with the higher Power Score wins the tie.
Smaller, active clans have a real shot at the top spots under these tiebreak rules, and the drop and Copper bonuses lasting three weeks make the ranking worth some coordination. More details are in the official announcement.
