Details Regarding the Ancient Kyve’s Buff
① Only the event buff from the most recent interaction with the Ancient Kyve will apply, and all similar buffs will disappear. For example, if you have an active buff from interacting with the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve and you interact with the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve, then the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve’s buff will disappear and the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve’s buff will newly apply.
② Any past similar event buffs (Mysterious, Knight, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm) that are active will disappear if you receive the Ancient Kyve’s buff by interacting with it.
③ If you receive the exact same event buff while it is already active, the buff’s duration will be refreshed.
E.g.) If you re-acquire the same buff with 50 minutes remaining, then the duration time will be refreshed to 180 minutes.
* The three details mentioned above applies to all similar event buffs.
(Mysterious, Knight, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm)
