Introduction to the Egg Trade Event

The new Egg Trade event has just dropped, and it is much more complicated than the usual events we are used to seeing. The event will continue until the 7th of September. Until that date, you will be able to find four different types of eggs scattered around different containers in your raids. You will then be able to trade your eggs in for spinels, which can be exchanged for rewards.

How to Find Eggs in Raids

Eggs can be found on all game modes, including hostile sector. The eggs themselves can be found in almost any container around the map with the higher rarity gold and red eggs appearing more frequently in safes and small safes. If you are lucky enough to find a gold egg, we recommend putting it in your secure case immediately, so you don't lose it upon death.

Mastering the Egg Market & Risk Management

Now that you have your eggs, you will have to trade them in from the event page so that you can get your rewards. However, before you lock in your trades, you should know that all egg trades will take 1 day to complete. Meaning that you will not be able to obtain your spinels until the following day.

How Risk Multipliers Work:

The event is fairly simple so far, but this is the part that gets a bit more complicated. Each day, the prices of some eggs will fluctuate. This means that your eggs may reward more or less spinels than you were expecting. This is further complicated by the risk multiplier system. Before you trade your eggs in, you will be able to choose a risk multiplier of 1x, 3x, or 5x. The risk multiplier you choose will multiply the fluctuation of your egg’s price.

Example

If you sell your red egg, which is currently worth 200 spinels at a 1x risk multiplier and the price decreases to 180 tomorrow, you will receive 180. If you choose the 5x risk multiplier for the same transaction, the price drop of 20 spinels will be multiplied by 5 and you will only receive 100.

Conversely, if you sell your red egg, which is currently worth 200 spinels at a 1x risk multiplier and the price increases to 220 tomorrow, you will receive 220. With a risk multiplier of 5x, you will receive a total of 300 instead.

So effectively, the number of spinels you will receive is:
Your egg's current value + (The change in value * The chosen risk multiplier)

This means that you should choose a high risk multiplier only if you are confident that the value of your eggs will increase by tomorrow. If you think that your eggs will decrease in value, you should use a low multiplier or hold your eggs for a more opportune moment.

But the egg market is not based on player input. So how can you predict the changes in price? Well, the only reliable way is to pay attention to the merchant clues you can find on the egg trade page. If a certain type of egg is in high demand, you should sell it with a high risk multiplier for maximum profit. If the supply of a certain type of egg is high, you should use a low risk multiplier or hold on to it for later.

Exchange Store & Daily Shop

After you trade your eggs in and you have your spinels, you can exchange them for rewards at the exchange store on the event page. The permanent rewards include the Crest Lord character set along with the Frenzied Erosion S12K and the Infection Variation Vector 9 among others. A variety of Koen bundles and gift boxes are also available for trade each day. These can only be bought four times each day and need to be refreshed between purchases.

Now that you know how the event works, you just need to get out there and obtain some eggs. Good luck!
