Captain’s Day is not a token guarantee
An announced content event and a reward probability are separate facts. Do not infer a guaranteed Pirate Shop reward, a specific multiplier, or a carry-over opportunity from the calendar alone.
Use the calendar as a preparation checklist
- Check the new event description when it appears in-game.
- Record which tasks and rewards you actually want.
- Verify the mode and deadline for each objective.
- Review a separate Treasure Hours notice if you are searching for a boost.
After a listed date passes
The table remains an announced-season reference, not a claim that an event is still active. For today’s availability, use the game’s current event panel. Read the time and boost verification guide.
