Shred the Darkness (event)
Shred the Darkness is a story-driven event which connects directly with the occurrences of Episode 3 as the story is brought to a close. Outside of informational and exchange missions, three mission types will be present in this event: extermination, defense and purification. Furthermore, as with certain previous events, participants will earn points which go toward a server-wide total. As predetermined milestones are reached, various prizes will be unlocked. Also, in the event missions, enemy EXP payout and item drop rates will be increased.

Rewards
As players run the main event missions (extermination, defense and purification missions only), the total number of enemies defeated will be added to a server-wide point tally. These points will then be used to unlock various in-game rewards. As a reminder, enemies killed in the side story mission The Magashi Plan will not count toward the server's total.

Individual rewards
Predetermined milestones will be set so that players who reach these marks will receive a special gift. As with the main event rewards, only points accumulated through defeating enemies in the extermination, defense and purification missions will count. Enemies killed in the side-story mission will not go toward the point total. When a player hits the required mark, they will be notified by an on-screen message, after which the reward mission, Hit the Counter!, will appear at the GUARDIANS HQ mission counter, allowing a player to collect their prize.
