You should pull for Zeus during his limited two-week event in Sword x Staff. Zeus is a premium unlockable companion who provides a mix of direct offensive stat boosts and passive progression enhancements, making him valuable for both daily resource farming and high-level combat.

Zeus Stat Buffs and Combat Utility

Zeus offers three primary stat bonuses that enhance your character's performance:

  • Damage Boost: Increases overall raw damage output for faster clears in general PVE content and dungeon stages.
  • Crit Rate Increase: Boosts critical strike frequency, providing the burst damage required for high-defense targets and competitive 2v2 PVP matches.
  • Dispatch Success Percentage Up: Increases the success chance for non-combat dispatch missions, raising overall daily yield from expeditions.

If your primary goal is maximizing account progression, the combined damage and dispatch bonuses justify spending event resources on his banner before it ends.

Two-Week Event Objectives and Daily Priorities

The Zeus release event runs for two weeks and includes companion pulls, relic summons, cosmetics, and minigames. Follow this priority checklist to manage your daily event energy and currency effectively:

  1. Clear Daily Event Stages: Complete your 2 stage clears each day to acquire baseline event currency and progression credit without requiring extra spending.
  2. Pull for Zeus and Relics: Focus event summon currency on Zeus's banner and his associated Relic banners to secure his passive bonuses.
  3. Complete the Puzzle Minigame: Solve the event puzzle minigame stages as they become available to gain supplemental upgrade materials.
  4. Check the Olympian Outfit: Review the Olympian Outfit section in the event menu for available cosmetics and associated event reward milestones.
  5. Shop Management: Note that the event shop does not contain mystery coins. Spend your earned event currency directly on guaranteed companion upgrade materials and event-exclusive items.
