# Portal MVP Event

## Mechanics Guide

The **Portal MVP Event** is a time-limited boss hunting event where mysterious portals randomly appear across Rune Midgard! Players must locate the portal, enter it, and defeat the boss inside to earn exclusive rewards!

***

### 🕒 Schedule

* The event runs automatically **3 times per day**:
  * **12:00 AM**
  * **08:00 AM**
  * **04:00 PM**

***

### 📍 Event Flow

#### 1. **Announcement Phase**

When the event starts, the system will:

* Announce a **random portal location** (map name).
* Indicate whether the portal type is **Blue** (Defense Challenge) or **Red** (Attack Challenge).
* If `random_spawn` is enabled, players are only given **coordinate ranges** and must search manually.
* Otherwise, **exact coordinates** will be revealed.

#### 2. **Portal Activation**

* After a 30-second countdown, the portal will **appear in the announced map**.
* Players can enter the portal if they meet the **minimum level requirement** (usually level 99 or above).
* You have **45 minutes** to enter, clear the dungeon, and defeat the MVP.
* If the MVP is not defeated in time, the portal vanishes and the event ends.

### ⚔️ Portal Types

| Type           | Description                                 |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| 🔵 Blue Portal | Focuses on **defense and survivability**    |
| 🔴 Red Portal  | Focuses on **damage output and aggression** |

Each portal leads to a **unique dungeon** with different MVP monsters and mechanics.

### 🎯 Battle Phase

#### Countdown

Once players enter the portal:

* A countdown begins (e.g. **5 minutes** before boss spawn).
* Periodic alerts will remind players to prepare.
* After countdown, the MVP boss **spawns in the dungeon**.

### 🏆 Ranking & Rewards

#### Damage-Based Rankings

* Every hit is recorded and **ranked based on total damage** dealt.
* The **Top N players** (based on your server settings) will receive exclusive rewards.
* A **global ranking announcement** will be shown after the MVP is slain.

#### Special Rewards

* **Top Damage Dealer** gets highlighted in a server-wide announcement.
* The player who lands the **final blow** gets an **additional reward**.
* If you are online during the reward phase, your prize is **sent directly** to your inventory.

### ❌ Failure Condition

* If the MVP is not defeated within **45 minutes**, the event ends automatically.
* Players are warped out and the dungeon is cleared.

* **Prepare consumables** for the dungeon — it's a long fight!
