Join the Grandshelt Knights!

Join the Grandshelt Knights! is an Exchange Event in Final Fantasy Brave Exvius which commemorates the game's 2nd anniversary.

Story-wise, the event is a vision of the past of Grandshelt when Raegen underwent the test to join the Knights of Grandshelt.

Story
The vivid and rich scenery of Grandshelt has projected itself on the Farplane.

However, it shows time of old when the capital sought the implementation of entrance examinations to select the newest generation of knights.

Amidst all this, Lasswell manages to spot someone he recognizes...

Gameplay
The player must enter the event's dungeon and defeat enemies in order to earn special event currency which can be exchanged to King Mog for unique rewards. If the player uses specific units, they are awarded an additional bonus on the base currency obtained. The bonus is cummulative so the more units that are brought together, the better. There are also special monsters which drop a large amount of currency but they appear randomly.

Units Featured
Unlike most events of this kind, the event's bonus units are all previously released units, across different times while making them available for pulling during the event's duration.

Noteworthy, however, is that all second season variants of the main characters (the often called CG units) are all available at once during this event with any 5★ successful pull guaranteed to be one of these units. They are as follows:


 * Pyro Glacial Lasswell: Lasswell's 2nd season variant. A very powerful finisher with innate Dual Wield for Katanas and Greatswords. He specializes on Fire, Ice and Wind damage and can imperil the former two. His Trust Master Reward, the Azure Crimson Soul boosts ATK/HP by 30% and increases the Limit Burst fill rate.


 * Lotus Mage Fina: Fina's 2nd season variant. One of the game's strongest healers with Spells like Curaja, Reraise and innate Dualcast. She also has range of different supportive abilities including elemental resistance and MP refresh. Her Trust Master Reward, the Hairpin of Purity increases DEF +10, MAG +24, SPR +51 and bestows immunity to all status ailments.


 * Nameless Gunner Jake: Jake's 2nd season variant. A versatile unit with both finishing and chaining abilities, can also bestow and imperil elements of Fire, Ice, Lightning and Light and has innate Dual Wield. By far his strongest asset is his powerful Limit Burst, but has a great debuff on himself side-effect. His Trust Master Reward, the ABS Ring increased DEF/SPR +25 and the Absorber ability yield restores MP and fills the LB gauge.


 * Blossom Sage Sakura: Sakura's 2nd season variant. She's a very powerful Magic Damage unit with coverage for Lightning, Light and Dark, with emphasis on the former as she can stack a large amount of Lightning damage making her a strong Magic Finisher. She can also use non-elemental damage and a plethora of supportive abilities. Her Limit Burst is one of the strongest and longest finishers of the game with 40 hits. Her Trust Master Reward, the Sage of Mysidia increases MP +20%, MAG +40% and fills the LB gauge.


 * Heavenly Technician Lid: Lid's 2nd season variant. She's considered one of the game's strongest debuffers being able to debuff enemies stats from 50% to 60% with her abilities or even 70% with her Limit Burst. Her Trust Master Reward, the Invigorator increases MP +35, DEF +10, and regens HP/MP and fills the LB gauge.


 * Maritime Strategist Nichol: Nichol's 2nd season variant. He is one of the game's most powerful support units being an excellent and versatile buffer, boosting stats by 100% all the way up to 130%, provide elemental resistance, damage reduction and even MP restoration. His Trust Master Reward, the Strategic Cape increases DEF +40, MAG +52, SPR +38, MP +20% and Ice/Water resistance by 50%.

Promotions
Two promotions were held for the event. The first one including three separate banners with two of the featured 5★ base rarity units each along their respective 3★ and 4★ units, making it much easier to acquire a particular unit from the event's pool. This lasted for the first week of the event as the 2nd week features all the aforementioned units in a single banner.

The other promotion is Coin Summon. For any 10+1 summon performed on the above banners, the player was awarded a special Hero Coin which could be used to perform a Coin Summon on a separate banner, although 5 Coins are needed for a summon. Coin Summon guarantees one of the 5★ base rarity units of the event, although it is chosen at random so any have roughly 16,6% of being summoned. As of the 2nd week of the event, no more Coins can be acquired, although the Coin Summon banner remains active and can be used, provided the player has coins to invest.
