The event runs until June 4 and lets players strengthen special equipment called Famous Sword Equipment over multiple periods by collecting Tamahagane from field civilians and performing Engraving to unlock ability caps.","whyItMatters":"The event introduces a persistent equipment-strengthening system that carries across multiple event periods, a structural shift from the game's usual single-period events.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe event is not a standalone affair. A single piece of Famous Sword Equipment is strengthened over several event periods, meaning progress made now carries forward into future iterations. Players walk daily to collect Tamahagane from field civilians, then use it to raise the equipment's four ability stats and inherit traits from other gear. Engraving, which requires an Engraving Chisel, unlocks ability caps by restricting which commanders can equip the item. Rewards include event-exclusive titles and Blacksmith Lottery Tickets for random equipment drops.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlongside the event, a solo pick-up recruitment banner features SSR [Numata's Light] Honda Komatsu, a unit affiliated with both the Tokugawa and Sanada factions.
