Windward Voyage (Voyage of Light)
Kingshot Windward Voyage (Voyage of Light) guide covering Voyager Teams, compass timing, route planning, Tidal Treasure merging, and milestone targets.
Windward Voyage (also known as Voyage of Light) is best treated as a route planning and hero gear progression event. The value comes from keeping your Voyager Teams active, planning the most efficient path through the nodes, saving compasses for clean milestone pushes, and deciding whether to merge Tidal Treasures before the final collection window closes.
- 1 Check the maximum team count currently unlocked by your level.
- 2 Plan a route that passes through high-value milestone reward nodes.
- 3 Hoard compass items until you can execute a full route push.
- 4 Coordinate with your alliance to time shared speedups.
- 1 Check how many Voyager Teams you can keep active for the full event window.
- 2 Set a realistic milestone target before buying extra teams or compass packs.
- 3 Use compasses when they finish a voyage that crosses a milestone, not just because the timer looks long.
- 4 Keep treasure merging decisions until you can see whether opening or merging helps the next reward tier.
- 1 Collect all passive resource and speedup node rewards.
- 2 Verify that all Voyager Teams are currently on active routes.
- 3 Claim free daily compasses from the event interface.
- 4 Check active alliance help requests to reduce route timers.
- 1 Do not open every Common or Premium treasure immediately.
- 2 Merge when it improves the reward tier without blocking your final milestone progress.
- 3 Stop merging if the higher tier does not match your current bottleneck.
- 4 Use the final collection day to clean up unopened or unmerged treasures before auto-claim rules remove your choice.
- 1 Milestone Chests containing Forgehammers and Hero Gear Chests.
- 2 Mithril (prioritize for permanent Red Gear upgrades, not temporary vanity).
- 3 Enhancement Materials to build combat power rating and stats.
- 4 Gems and Speedups to restock your reserves.
- 1 F2P players should keep the free team active, merge carefully, and ignore milestones that require panic spending.
- 2 Low spenders should only add teams or compasses when the planner shows a real milestone jump.
- 3 Heavy spenders should compare the 200 and 350 voyage targets against pack cost and hero gear needs.
- 4 Everyone should stop buying when the next milestone is too far away to reach cleanly.
