ARKS League is a scheduled ship-wide competition where ARKS operatives compete with each other to gain rewards such as Star Gems (SG).
Joining
The ARKS League eligibility timing bracket ranges from the start of the ARKS League to 15 minutes before the end of the ARKS League. Checking the ARKS League bracket, logging in, changing block, moving from a gateship and slaying a target all counts towards adding oneself to the league during the eligibility period.
ARKS operatives are matched according to the highest level character in their account and are similarly also entered into an ARKS League tier of a certain target level, the highest usually being Lv61 mobs in a group of 20 operatives.
Earning Points
Points are earned per kill in all quests except for story quests where it does not count.
Rewards
The rewards can be summarized in the table below. In order to receive a reward, one must participate even if it is just one mob killed.
| Rank | Reward |
|---|---|
| Rank 1 | 100 Star Gems |
| Rank 2 | 50 Star Gems |
| Rank 3 | 30 Star Gems |
| Rank 4-10 | 10 Star Gems |
| Rank 11-20 | 5 Star Gems |
The rewards can be received from ARKS League Admin Mimi located at the west quest counter 30 minutes after the league has ended. The tally results of ARKS Leagues that have ended can be viewed from the ESC menu/Event Info/ARKS League/ARKS League Log.
Strategies
Tying with Other Players
If multiple ARKS operatives all tie with the same number of points, they will all receive the same placing rewards, for example, all 1st place and all 100 Star Gems. Given this, if all ARKS operatives cooperate during an ARKS League where the mobs are of a set number during a concurrent emergency quest and do not exceed their matched number after the emergency quest, minimal effort nor over extension would be needed to emerge as all winners.
Quest Triggers
Starting or joining emergency quest triggers is an option to increase one's mob count where the mobs would normally be too rare to encounter in other quests or when having missed the ARKS League related emergency quest.
PSE Bursts
Starting quests, such as free field and Advance Quest of Lv61 mobs and achieving a PSE Burst, typically in Area 2, with a high number of players e.g. 4-12 can be a way to increase mob count quickly.
Other Quests
Other quests that have guaranteed spawn of Lv61 and over, such as certain Time Attacks and Extreme Quests and ARKS Quests can be go to quests.
Synchronized Partying/Logging in
It is possible to organise a party and/or negotiate a login with friends to join a quest or login at the same exact time, or join an emergency quest at the same time as the majority of the ship, so that mutually cooperating players are matched in the same league with higher probability.
Multishipping
It is possible to join ARKS League on multiple ships and with lower level characters in order to win at ARKS League against novice players who are not interested in winning the ARKS League themselves.
Camping
It is unknown if camping in a map for ARKS League or moving to Area 2 and then killing a mob counts towards ARKS League.
