== Access Requirements ==
== Requirements ==
Before using the Episode 19 Expedition NPC, the account must have completed:
Complete the following before starting Episode 19:


* Episode 16
* Episode 16
 
* Episode 17
* Episode 17.1 and Episode 17.2
 
* Episode 18
* Episode 18


These episodes may be completed normally or through the appropriate Episode Clear Tickets.
If a prerequisite is missing, the Episode 19 officer will display it.
 
For manual Episode 17 completion, both of the following must be completed:
 
* The Episode 17.1 final quest
 
* The Episode 17.2 main story
 
If any required episode is incomplete, the NPC will display the completion status for Episodes 16, 17, and 18.
 
== Main NPC Menu ==
The Episode 19 Expedition NPC provides the following options:
 
* '''Receive Random Adventure''' or continue the current assigned adventure
 
* '''Random Weekly Isgard Challenge'''
 
* '''Isgard Field Codex'''
 
* '''Ice Castle Reputation'''
 
* '''Check Expedition Status'''
 
* '''Warp to Snake God's Warmth I'''
 
== Random Adventure System ==
Episode 19 daily missions use a '''concealed random assignment system'''.
 
When selecting '''Receive Random Adventure''':
 
# The NPC checks which missions are available for the account.
# One available mission is selected randomly.
# The mission is revealed only after the player accepts the sealed order.
# The player cannot choose or reroll the assignment.
# Only one random adventure can be active at a time.
 
After completing or abandoning an assignment, the player may receive another available adventure if other missions remain available for that day.
 
'''Important:'''
 
* Most adventures are limited to once per day per account.
 
* The daily restriction is applied when the reward is claimed.
 
* Abandoning a mission normally clears its current progress.
 
* Abandoning does not normally apply the daily completion restriction.
 
* Some missions require Base Level 210 or 220.
 
* The Heart Hunter Emergency uses a separate seven-day cooldown.
