The Ibone Partner Event in NTE Version 1.2 is basically a return-player campaign. You invite eligible inactive players back, they complete event tasks, and both sides can claim rewards. In practice, most players care about three questions: who counts as a returning player, how invite codes work, and how the 940 Ringstone reward total is reached.
Event Duration
- Starts with the Version 1.2 update
- Ends on August 13, 2026 at 05:59:59 (UTC+8)
Who Counts as Returning?
In general, the system checks things like:
- 1enough consecutive offline days
- 2enough Hunter level progress
- 3enough main-story completion
The practical advice is simple: do not assume “hasn't played in a while” automatically means “eligible.” The safest check is whether the game or event page marks that account as a valid return target.
How Invite Codes Work
A practical order is:
- 1confirm the invited player is eligible
- 2have them enter through the correct invite link or code
- 3let them finish the required tasks
- 4refresh and claim milestone rewards from the event page
About the 940 Ringstone Total
Treat the 940 total as a staged reward ceiling, not as a single instant payout. Usually you claim a base reward first, then unlock more as the returning player progresses through tasks.
Why This Matters
If you are already saving for later banners, this event is one of the cleaner extra Ringstone sources inside the Version 1.2 cycle.
