Extra Mechanics[]
Victory ATK Bonuses:
Everytime you defeat Merle or Cinta, you will gain an extra 10% ATK bonus to use against her. This bonus lasts for 10 minutes. If you defeat her again within that 10 minutes, the 10% bonuses will stack, which leads to higher % ATK. The current stacking limit is unknown (if there is a limit). If you don't defeat one of the bosses within the 10 minutes, you will lose the bonus and it will reset back to 0%.
Finding Cinta:
Cinta only appears after defeating Merle. Her appearance is random.
Frozen Rescue:
The Rescue Event portion of this event. After defeating Merle or Cinta, they will drop Ice Tickets for you. These can be used at the Frozen Rescue. One (1) Ice Ticket lets you use the Silver Frozen Rescue, which has a large pool of pirates, including limited time event pirates. Ten (10) Ice Tickets will let you use the Gold Frozen Rescue, which will increase your chances of obtaining a special event pirate, but it isn't guaranteed. The special event pirates have skills that provide small ATK bonuses while exploring the Icy Palace.
The Frozen Rescue limited event pirates are as follows:
