# MVP Instances

<figure><img src="/files/jrW4jsrVLIvVtD76SYSO" alt="" width="150"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

*Hunt MVPs with your friends, at your own time and leisure.*

On a busy server, hunting MVPs can be difficult due to high competition and time constraints. To make MVPs more accessible, **MVP Instances** are private, party-only maps where you can summon and defeat an MVP without camping field spawns. Casual groups can schedule their own MVP runs whenever it suits them.

### How it works

* Only the **party leader** can open an instance.
* Each party member chooses, **before entering**, whether to **pay** or not.
* Only players who **pay** receive loot.
* Players can enter for **free** to help even if they are on cooldown, but they will **not** receive any rewards.
* MVP loot is reduced to **50% of field rates**, and everyone in the instance rolls their **own individual loot**.
* **No experience** is earned inside MVP Instances.
* Any instance can alternatively be opened/entered with **15 War Badges**.
* Instances **close after 5 minutes of inactivity**.

### Opening and entering

1. The party leader talks to the **MVP Instances** NPC and selects the target MVP.
2. The instance opens for the whole party.
3. Each member then talks to the same NPC and chooses how to enter:
   * **Pay with materials + zeny** (the cost listed for that MVP), or
   * **Pay with 15 War Badges**, or
   * **Enter for free** to help, with no loot and no cooldown.

> Paying flags you as eligible for loot. Free entrants can still fight and assist, they simply receive no drops and are never placed on cooldown.

### Loot and rewards

When the MVP dies, every **paying** member present rolls their own loot individually, at 50% of the server's field drop rates. Drops are delivered straight to each eligible player; there is no shared pile to fight over. No experience is granted inside instances.

### Cooldowns

* Cooldowns are based on your **account** and **Gepard ID**.
* Bypassing cooldowns is **not allowed**.
* A cooldown is applied **only if the MVP is killed and loot is received**.
* Entering for free to help a friend does **not** place you on cooldown.

All MVPs in the list below share a **3-day** cooldown.

### Instance list

Costs are paid per player. As an alternative to the materials and zeny, any instance can be entered with **15 War Badges**.

### Quick FAQ

**Do I have to pay every time?** Only if you want loot. You can join a friend's run for free to help fight; you just won't get drops, and you won't be placed on cooldown.

**Can I get experience here?** No. MVP Instances grant no EXP. They are purely for the MVP fight and its loot.

**What if my party leaves the MVP alive?** The instance closes automatically after 5 minutes with no activity.

**Does dying lose my run?** No. The instance stays open while the party is active; only the kill (with loot) applies a cooldown.
