Events Guide
Events are how Kingshot distributes its best rewards. Players who understand the event calendar and play around it progress 2–3x faster than those who ignore it.
Daily Missions — Do These Every Day
Daily missions refresh every 24 hours and are the most consistent source of gems, speed-ups, and resources in the game. They require 5–10 minutes of actual play. Missing them is lost progress that doesn't roll over.
- Complete all daily tasks for the full chest reward — the final chest contains gems
- Collect Alliance Help and send help to others as part of your daily routine
- Fight at least one rebel on the map — contributes to multiple daily and weekly goals simultaneously
- Donate to Alliance Tech daily for contribution points and Alliance Coins
- Start a training batch before you log off — idle barracks lose you hours of troop output
Bear Hunt
Bear Hunt is a recurring alliance event where members collectively damage a massive boss bear that appears on the map. Personal damage scores determine your reward tier — higher damage = better loot, including premium speed-ups, gems, and hero shards.
Key Tips
- Use the 80 / 0 / 20 Infantry/Archer formation — bears deal heavy frontal damage
- Send marches as fast as they return — Bear Hunt is won through volume, not individual march power
- Use Zoe (Infantry, Gen 2) if you have her — she has a passive Bear Hunt damage bonus
- Blue (Rare) heroes score a significant points multiplier — fill secondary march slots with blue heroes for higher total score than using Legendaries only
- Heal troops between marches if your hospital has capacity — don't send wounded troops back in

Alliance Championship & Swordland Showdown
Alliance Championship is a scheduled PvP event where your alliance fights against other alliances for territory, points, and ranking rewards. It runs on a fixed schedule (check the in-game event calendar). Top-ranked alliances receive premium rewards distributed to all participating members.
Swordland Showdown is a time-limited PvP zone event that rewards players for kills and territory control within a special map zone. The rewards include materials and speed-ups that can't easily be obtained elsewhere.
- Coordinate rally timing with your R4/R5 before these events — uncoordinated attacks lose badly
- Have shields ready if you're at risk of being targeted — the window after an event ends is prime raiding time
- Participate even if your power is modest — group contributions to alliance score still matter
- Switch to an attack formation (50/20/30 or 50/0/50) before the event and back to defense after
In-Kingdom Events
In-Kingdom events run continuously in the background and reward points for completing actions: building upgrades, research nodes, troop training, rebel kills, and resource gathering. Points accumulate toward reward tiers — each tier unlocks a chest of increasing value.
Key In-Kingdom Events to Watch
| Event Type | Points From | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Development Event | Buildings, research, troop training | High — aligns with normal daily activity, free points |
| Kill Event | Killing enemy troops (rebels and PvP) | High — coordinate with alliance to maximize kills in window |
| Resource Event | Gathering resources from the map | Medium — send all gathering marches during this window |
| Training Event | Troop training volume | High — queue max training before event starts |
| Research Event | Completing research nodes | High — use speed-ups to complete nodes during this window |
Kingdom vs Kingdom (KvK)
KvK is the largest-scale event in the game — your entire kingdom competes against another across a 28-day cycle with a Prep Phase (development scoring) and a Battle Phase (cross-kingdom warfare). It hands out the best rewards in the game for top contributors.
- KvK rewards are tier-based — higher individual contribution score = better rewards
- Save speed-ups and upgrade materials for the Prep Phase — the same actions score points during prep that score nothing outside it
- Before Battle Phase: heal all troops, fill hospital beds, shield if under-powered, move your city near alliance territory
- Don't attack alone — join coordinated rallies for better results and less risk
- Farm accounts contribute to KvK scores too — coordinate their participation
