A new event puts Lower Abyss entry time on sale: the Abyss Rift Stone event (after Oct 13 maintenance through before Oct 27/28 maintenance) lets level-45+ players buy Lower Abyss Rift Stones (7 Days, Bound) with Kina from the Shop — the item that recharges Lower Abyss usage time by 1 hour per stone.

Quick answer: Through October 27/28 maintenance: buy Lower Abyss Rift Stone (7 Days, Bound) for 50,000 Kina (Shop > Wind Breeze Merchants > Special tab) — level 45+, limit 7 per character per week. Each stone recharges Lower Abyss time by 1 hour; stones auto-delete 7 days after purchase. It is a Kina sink and a time-saver, not a paywall: the Abyss remains accessible through normal play.

What this means for different players
- Endgame regulars — if you are already clearing Lower Abyss content, the stone is a top-up, not a gate: base usage time comes from normal play, the event adds purchasable extra hours.
- Fresh level-45s — Kina income at 45 is still ramping; 50,000 Kina is a meaningful first sink (see the gear progression guide for where Kina competes with enhance spending).
- Economy watchers — a 50,000 Kina weekly sink per character is also an anti-inflation tool during the RMT enforcement week (context); the timing is unlikely to be coincidence.
Caveats worth knowing
- Stones are Bound and auto-delete 7 days after acquisition — buy for the week you play, not to stockpile.
- The event runs through before the Oct 27/28 maintenance; no extension announced (to be verified if extended).
FAQ
Do I need the Rift Stone to enter the Abyss at all? No — base Lower Abyss access comes from normal progression; the stone recharges usage time by 1 hour (an event convenience/sink). Exact base-hour mechanics: (to be verified in-game).
Can I stockpile stones for next week? No — they auto-delete 7 days after acquisition, and the weekly purchase limit is 7 per character.
Is this pay-to-win? The stone buys time convenience, not power directly — the community's read is mixed and evolving; judge by how much your playtime is worth per hour. The class hub remains the place to plan what you do with that time.
