Good timeofaday, brave Princes! It is that time of the week again, and once more we are going to experience the miracle of two events running on the same time. Of course, second event is a Revival, of a previous Star Trial this time, so fun times continue!
So let's resolve the Crisis of the Fairy Village!
Revival runs: 2017-04-04 to 2017-04-11
RewardsThis is a Moment Crystal collection event. You farm event maps for special Moment Crystal drops and use it to buy event target(s) from Trading Post. Upgrading is done via standard Unit Combination with further copies bought from the Trading Post.
(Re)Introducing the Dark Elf Rowanna. First of her special class (meaning, no class evolution necessary), Rowanna is a duelist who powers up when her health drops below half (and again below 30% and 10%), with a self-heal skill to offset such a suicidal lifestyle) She has bandit level of health pool an a decent defense to fall back to, but her attack without her berserking boosts is pretty low in comparison to alternatives. Awakening gives her status immunity, unique among free units, so she will be able to not worry about that pesky vampires and ropers, as well as about poison maps. Skill Awakening changes her self-heal-to-half skill into two changing back and forth: one to drop her health in half, to activate her boost, and another to fully heal her, to save her behind when things start getting too hot. She is an Elf, so all Fae-targeting passives, like Pupuru's "Elven Stronghold", will work for her.
All in all, not the greatest event unit to gun for, as her class perk requires her to be outside of healing range (else she'd get topped off all the time) and so, to babysit her health constantly. But if it is your cup of a tea, go for it! For the sceptics, more MC for future units

Comments about the eventSeeing as it is a revival of an rather ancient event, maps should pose no real problem for any developed army, not to mention Awakened one Still, be careful of berserk Rowanna, she can be quite mean to her blockers on the low HP) Even still, new 90/12 map can be challenging, so take care.
Your main aim here is to grind up as many Moment Crystals as possible. Not only they are needed to buy the copies of event target unit, but they also carry over to the next revival. Unfortunately, nearly all maps have rather low payoff. 90/12 map is quite good tho.
On a silver farming front, here's a run-down of possible drops:
- Heavy (Bernard) (map 3):
- Mage (Valerie) (map 4);
- Healer (Dorca) (map 5);
- Soldier (Phyllis) (map 6);
- Rogue (Cecily) (map 7).
- Archer (Daniela) (map 8);
There's also is a debut of Bonbori spirits - a special fodder spirit who have the same skill as the event unit, and so useful for raising the skill levels of said target unit.
Revival MC Shop:
- Rowanna - 150 (100 for subsequent)
You should be having some MCs in the pocket already, from previous MC Revivals, so proceed accordingly .
Unspent MCs stay with you and can be used in subsequent Revival Shops to buy other Star / Collection event units.

ЗЗЫ. F.A.Q
Q: Will Rowanna be at minimum cost / maximum skill level?
A: No, she will be at skill level 1 and not cost reduced.
Q: WHAT?! They expect me to make multiple Rowannas to raise her skill?!
A: No, Christia, Rainbow Spirit exist exactly for that. Also, there should be Bonbori spirits farmable on the maps to skill-up Rowanna.
Q: About Bonbori / Lantern spirits, can I hoard them and use on other revival units to raise their skill?
A: Lanterns are simply units that have same skill as Rowanna - Heal III - so they are only useful for units with same skill. IIRC there are no other event units with this skill. Other MC trade events will have their own Bonboris, with skill matching that event units, and so they are not interchangeable!
Q: About Bonbori / Lantern spirits, can they be used to skill-up other units besides Rowanna?
A: Lanterns are simply units that have same skill as Rowanna - Heal III - so if any other unit have such skill, you can use Bonbori on them. Currently only one such unit is Cuterie.
Q: I max-skilled both Rowanna and Cuterie and still have some Lanterns left. What now?
A: Sell them. As a Platinum rarity, they fetch 3k coins apiece.
Q: Is it me or drop rates are good? I got everything on the first try!
A: 100% drop rates for the first drop are indeed a thing FOR THIS REVIVAL. Second and subsequent drops are with regular rates. Also, if you already had received the drop at the original event run (or even at earlier revival), you will not have a guaranteed drop when you run the map at revival
Q: Speaking of drop rates, specifically for Moment Crystals...
A: Unknown at the moment. But it appears that 90/12 have >90% drop rates and seems to be the best map to farm them.
Q: What will happen to unspent Moment Crystals when event ends?
A: You will keep all unspent MCs and will be able to use them to purchase target units in other MC Revivals. And yes, that meant pre-grinding for future events is possible.
All Hail to the Revivals!
