Zeruertza Amazing Wall[edit]
During the event, the player will be able to pick two out of ten Beating Tickets every day, which gives 
Orundum with the highest among the picked ones being the reward (e.g. if the first Ticket gives 400 
and the second gives 800 , then the player will receive the latter).
- The possible Orundum values in each Beating Ticket are 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800.
- If the player receives less than 400 from the Beating Ticket, they will be able to pick a third Ticket in the next day.
- All unused Beating Ticket picks do not stack, so they must be used before the daily reset.
Media[edit]
Trivia[edit]
- In the CN server:
- The suffix of Ideal City's full name was Carnival in the Endless Summer, which is simplified to "Endless Carnival" in the Global server likely because the event itself was not actually released during Summer on Global. Nevertheless, the original suffix can still be seen briefly when the player enters the background from the Terminal while this event is active.
- IC was preceded by Lingering Echoes, Dorothy's Vision, To Be Continued, and the rerun of Dossoles Holiday. To allow IC, being a Carnival event, to be released around Global's 3rd anniversary date of January 16, 2023, DV, TC, and DH Rerun were rescheduled to succeed IC in Global.
- Due to an oversight, the Zeruertza Amazing Wall tab on the upper left corner of the main menu is erroneously named Dossoles Amazing Wall.
