Merchant Empire Event

Escort caravans and raid others to accumulate wealth and Alliance Brawl points.

Merchant Empire Event
Overview

Merchant Empire is a monthly event in Kingshot that usually shows up right after the Kingdom of Power event week, often alongside the Alliance Brawl event. The event lasts 7 days, but you can only escort caravans for the first 6 days. During these final 4 hours of day 6 spilling into day 7, you can still attack other players' carts, but you can't escort any new ones.

Event Overview
During the Merchant Empire event, your goal is to successfully escort loot carts (called Caravans) to their destination. Doing this earns you Alliance Brawl points and rewards based on the cart's rarity. However, your caravans can also be attacked by other players.
  • 1Event duration: 7 days total, with 6 days for escorting caravans
  • 2Day 6 is 28 hours long, spilling over into day 7 by 4 hours
  • 3Final 4 hours: can only attack caravans, not escort new ones
  • 4Earn Alliance Brawl points and rewards for successful escorts
  • 5Caravans can be attacked by other players
Caravan Rarity and Refreshing
Caravans come in four rarities: N (Normal), R (Rare), SR (Epic), and SSR (Mythic). You can refresh to get better rarity caravans.

Rarity System

Four rarity tiers available: N (Normal), R (Rare), SR (Epic), SSR (Mythic). Higher rarities provide better rewards.

  • N (Normal) - Basic rewards
  • R (Rare) - Improved rewards
  • SR (Epic) - Great rewards
  • SSR (Mythic) - Best rewards including forgehammers, gems, shards, governor gear

Refresh Mechanics

Each caravan gets one free refresh. After that, use Caravan Vouchers or gems. After the 6th refresh, you're guaranteed an SSR caravan.

  • 1st refresh: 100 gems
  • 2nd refresh: 200 gems
  • 3rd refresh: 300 gems
