What Is the Moonlit Starship Event?
The Moonlit Starship is a September 2026 limited-time event in Ragnarok: The New World, running alongside the Bard, Dancer, and Alchemist class launch and the Glast Heim expansion. The event centers on a celestial festival theme — players board a decorated starship, complete daily missions, craft festival items, and earn rewards including exclusive cosmetics, refinement materials, and event currency.
Official sources describe the Moonlit Starship as a "festival within a festival" during the September content wave. The event is accessible through the in-game Event tab and features a dedicated UI showing progress, craftable items, and mission checklists.

Starship Crafting and Festival Currency
The event introduces Starship Parts as the primary crafting material — collect enough parts to assemble a full Moonlit Starship decoration for your home or guild hall. Individual parts drop from daily missions and monster kills within the event-affected zones.
Moonlit Medals are the event currency, spent at the dedicated festival shop for time-limited rewards. Medals accumulate from mission completions and boss clears. Prioritize the shop tiers that offer non-repeatable rewards (unique cosmetics, title tokens) before spending on consumables.
Daily Missions and Repeatable Tasks
Moonlit Starship missions reset daily alongside server maintenance. Standard tasks include:
- Clearing 3 event-affected dungeon runs
- Defeating the event boss mini-boss 5 times
- Collecting 20 Starship Parts from field mobs
- Completing any 3 daily quests in the festival area
Bonus missions appear on weekends, typically doubling medal收益 or offering lottery tickets for rare drops. Stack these with your Daily Routine — the event runs concurrently with existing content, not as a replacement.
Event Rewards — What to Prioritize
Moonlit Starship offers two reward tracks:
- Cosmetics track: Moonlit Wings (limited-edition back accessory with glow particle), Starship Pet companion, and Festival Title with stat-neutral bonuses.
- Progression track: refine protection scrolls, enchant dust, and Moonlit Medals convertible to general upgrade materials.
For F2P players, the cosmetic track is the main draw — these items are often account-bound and tradeable on the Exchange for zeny after the event. The progression track supplements your Safe Refinement +15 goals without requiring premium purchases.
Cross-Server Features and Guild Integration
September 2026 update adds cross-server features gradually, and the Moonlit Starship event is one of the first to leverage this. Guilds can contribute to collective festival milestones — when the combined server progress reaches thresholds, all participants receive bonus rewards.
Coordinate with guildmates on mission timing to maximize group clears. The event boss spawns at scheduled intervals in the festival zone — guild calls in world chat help fill public parties for contribution loot.
