Crystalline Ambition is the second Labyrinth Event. You explore an Event Quest Labyrinth using Stamina. A boss will appear to fight you when clearing Chamber 10, 20, 30 40 and 100 (Big Boss) and at random intervals when clearing Chamber 60-90. When fighting the boss, it operates the same way as a regular storyline Boss fight does. You may also encounter Raid Boss battles, requiring Power Points, featuring the ghosts of former Raid Bosses.
After clearing the first 100 Chambers in the first half, you could access the Infinite Chamber and explore the Crystalline Spire endlessly. Note that after Chamber 100 you no longer fought any Quest Bosses until the second half. In the second half, the Spire was expanded to floor 200, after which the Infinite Chamber became available.
This was the first event to use a registration system prior to the start of the event in order to receive event kickoff rewards. Players were required to visit the "coming soon" event page link and tap the "Register for Giveaway" button.
The registration button was only valid until the day before the event. The Giveaway items were distributed once you entered the event page after the event had started. For this event the Giveaway items were 1x Stamina Potion (Non Bazaar) and 1x Orphic Crystal.

Progress Map[]
This map can be accessed from the event screen. On this map you can check your progress through the spire. After you defeat a Boss, a new section of the map will be illuminated. The map reset at floor 101.
Enchanted Gates[]
As you make your way through the Chamber, you may be confronted by locked Enchanted Gates, with 5 Enchanted Locks to choose from. If you choose the correct Enchanted Lock you can proceed further on your quest. If you choose the wrong Enchanted Lock, you will be sent back to the start of the Chamber. Some of the incorrect locks contain additional items as a consolation. Strategically, it may be worth it to explore these "dead ends" before moving on.
Next to your current Chamber number, you will see an counter showing the number of Tries you have attempted to clear the current Chamber. Once you have cleared the current Chamber the Tries counter will reset.
Boss Encounters[]
Every 10 Chamber levels you will encounter a boss battle. The strength of the boss will increase with the level of the floor. From floor 110-200 the bosses have reset, but are slightly more powerful than their floor 1-100 versions.
Each boss battle will be the same format as a Storyline Quest boss fight, You will face them with your captain card on your own and cannot call for help. Defeat these bosses for a reward, and to progress further up the spire.
Orphic Crystals[]
Orphic Crystals are cryptic crystals that will help you on your path through the quest. You can use Orphic Crystals when you are confronted with Enchanted Gates. When an Orphic Crystal is used, a special effect called Clairvoyance will initiate. When Clairvoyance is in effect, it will guide you on the correct path through the cavern. Clairvoyance's effects last 5 minutes (7 minutes with thief class). The number of Orphic Crystals you currently have in your possession will be displayed on the Crystalline Ambition Event Page. Orphic Crystals may be purchased from the Shop during the event period.
Rough Crystals[]
Within the Spire you can find special crystals to collect. Collect as many rough crystals as you can to rise higher through the rankings. In this event Rough Crystals also act like Event Collectibles, whereby collecting certain amounts of Rough Crystals will grant rewards. The number of Rough Crystals you currently have in your possession is displayed on the Crystalline Ambition event Screen.
