Good timeofaday, brave Princes! There's thankfully still no stopping our event train so far, but it sure likes to jump the stations) And now we once again skipping ahead over one event to receive another first. Fortunately, this event is a Star Trial, for the our second Swordmaster!
So let's witness The Deadly Sword That Shook The Earth!
Event runs: 2017-03-28 to 2017-04-11
Rewards
This is a Star Trial event. You will obtain event unit after event ends if you scored well enough during it's duration. Unit's level, skill level and cost depends on the number of stars you managed clear event maps for.
Introducing the (Earth) Swordswoman Gloria a Platinum rarity Swordmaster. Her class is defined by their special (Sword) Skills, and Skill that Sandra possesses is "Ougi: Rock-Crushing Sword" "Secret skill: Rock Cleaver", that clears the earth around her from trash (and damages rest heavily). Specifically, upon skill activation she slams her sword into the rock, and raises rock spikes under every enemy in her range, that hits earthbound enemies extra-hard. Do note, that unlike Sandra, Gloria's skill deals physical damage. Outside of her skill, she is a decent, if unremarkable and pricey duelist. Awakening greatly increases her HP (on top of regular gains from extra levels). Skill Awakening, whenever it hits our shores (it is quite recent feature at DMM for her class), gives her permanent x1.5 to defense once (no super-attack for this activation) before switching to her regular skill for the remaining map duration. All in all, Sandra, as all other Swordmasters, exists for her skill, and is as useful as good one can utilize said skill. So her use would require building the strategy around it, and careful timing its activations for most effect, but in exchange it provides quite a shock to a great number at enemies at once. So make sure to get as many skill levels for her as possible!

Comments about the event
This Star Trial so expect some trouble) Still, it should be easier than "Maze of the Demon King" was, so if you cleared that, you should be able to clear this event as well. Of notable thing is return of our favorite fatass Greater Demon and his EQUAL 5000 attack. This time he brought his running shoes, so at the first encounter he will revive when killed and start to speed through your formation. G-tier versionS are running from the get go and has twice as much health to compensate for the lack of revival trick. Tankfully, you don't need to kill them to get 3* clear. Would require some tricky swap or gatekeeper usage tho... Anyway, prepared to receive such rush, either by Immortal Karma, tokens or, if you rolled ranger, traps.
This event is also should be featuring Yurina as both completion reward and a drop on her own featured map, complete with dialogue and all. But as we all know, for us Yurina does not exist, so it is interesting to see how devs would weasel out of the hole they dug themselves in...
On a silver farming front, here's a run-down of possible drops:
- Witch (Naynia) (map 2);
- Samurai (Iroha) (map 3);
- Mage (Pallis) (map 3);
- Soldier (Phyllis) (map 4);
- Bandit (Eunice) (map 4);
- Rogue (Barrad) (map 5);
- Pirate (Giovanni) (map 5);
- Artillery (Percis) (map 5);
- Heavy (Bernard) (map 6):
- Soldier (Assal) (map 7);
- Healer (Christopher) (map 7);
- Valkyrie (Misha) (map 8);
- Archer (Kazuha) (map 9);
- Ninja (Saizo) (map 9);
- Magic Fencer (Ricardo) (map 9).
There's also a Tin Can on maps 4 and 8, and maybe even farmable Platinum - Dark Knight Yurina (debut?!) on map 8.
And quite uniquely, there's a SPIRIT QUEEN famable on map 7!

* A Black rarity Pegasus Rider who will make your flying blenders blend even longer!) Combined with all the jazz their class have (0-block and all-around AoE on skill use, recovery of UP on kill, increased refund on retreat) it makes for a very powerful ramper (that AoE swing can reap quite a number of UPs in one go as it decimates the swarm of gobs, for example) and gatekeeper. And black level stats support it all nicely)
