The Hollowstar Crater

The second expedition destination. A broken crater around the impact of a fallen star, a ruined observatory at its centre still tracking a star that no longer exists. There is no tide here — the whole crater resonates as Guardians hunt, and when it peaks a Starfall falls for everyone at once. Sail here from Ravennor.

Resonance & Starfall

Instead of a clock-based tide, Hollowstar runs a shared community meter. Every successful !hunt adds one to it, and when the crater reaches 30 successful hunts a 90-minute Starfall begins for every explorer at once. During a Starfall two more evolution lines can be encountered and the Starglass OILball jumps to ×3.5 catch power. Hunts pay 2–4 Starseals in both states.

That is four evolution lines found nowhere else — two always in the crater, two that only appear when the community pulls a Starfall down. Catching all four means being on the crater when it peaks.

The Starwarden's Trial

At the fallen observatory, Starwarden Lyra tests whether a team can endure the crater's weight before she lets you near Cosmoryx — a Pokemax you can get no other way. Beat all three of her Pokemax. You open it from the Trial panel in the expedition Safari channel, and the fight runs as a public thread.

One-time victory, unlimited retries. Register exactly three Pokemax in your Party; your current HP and Move Uses carry into the battle and stay saved, so heal at the Pokemax Center between attempts. Lose and retry as often as you like; win once and the Trial can never be challenged again.

🦌 Cosmoryx · Rock · all-rounder — a unique Pokemax, not one of the 108 catchable species. A bulky rock all-rounder leaning on heavy HP and DEF.

Cosmoryx's kit. Its signature move is Astral Orbit (Rock, 82 power), which drains 20% of the damage it deals, and its passive Astral Convergence fires once when it drops to 50% HP or less: it heals 10% max HP and raises its DEF a stage. During Starfall it gets stronger — the heal rises to 15% and it also raises ATK a stage.

Hunting the crater

!hunt keeps the normal enemy scaling, XP, OIL and daily Hunt Energy rules — but instead of materials it pays Starseals (2–4 each), and every successful hunt also nudges the crater's shared Resonance meter toward the next Starfall.

The Starseal Exchange

Spend your Starseals at the crater's shop. Prices are in Starseals; several items are capped per voyage.

Exclusive gear & weapon

Two items you can only get here, explained by the numbers. Both enhance to +5; the last two steps need materials the Starseal Exchange sells.

🛡️ Craterglass Bracer — gear · +1 CON, +20 max HP. Its passive, Resonant Guard, turns your defence into staying power: a successful PARRY prepares a shield for the following round. It triggers once per round and refreshes instead of stacking, so a steady parry keeps a shield up round after round.

Each +1 adds +5 HP to the shield. The +4 and +5 steps also cost Craterglass Fragments.

⚓ Meteor Anchor — weapon · +1 STR, +1 CON. Its active Gravity Well (once per combat, one target) is a defensive strike: you attack for 60% of a normal hit and, that same round, the first hostile attack that connects cannot take more than 40% of your max HP — a hard cap on burst. Enhancing raises the strike and tightens the cap.

Each +1 adds +5% to the strike and tightens the cap by 2% (a harder ceiling on the hit you take). The +4 and +5 steps cost Meteoric Cores.

Both are expedition-exclusive — you cannot forge them on the mainland, and their final two steps need materials that only the Starseal Exchange sells. Wear the Insignia once and the The Starfallen title is yours for good.
