Season 1 is Kintara's first game-wide season. It brings a free Season Pass — a reward track every player can climb by earning XP while the season runs — plus season-exclusive cosmetics in the Season 1 championship colours (deep violet and gold, laurel mark throughout), a personal finisher's trophy, and the first competitive round of Guild Seasons.
The Season Pass
Open the Rewards window (the gift button on the HUD) and pick the Season Pass tab. The pass is free and open to every player — there is nothing to buy.
- Progress is XP earned during the season. Your bar starts at zero the first time you sign in while the season is running, and every point of skill XP you earn from then on moves it.
- All six skills count. XP earned past a skill's level cap still counts toward the pass, so a maxed skill keeps pulling its weight. Smithing XP counts at one fifth of face value, so a forge binge isn't a shortcut.
- The track is a ladder of reward stops: reach a stop's XP and claim it for its items. The current stops and their rewards are shown on the track in-game.
Free players
Accounts playing for free can earn and claim the pass up to the third reward stop. Past that, the bar freezes until the account holds the 1,000 $KINS minimum — then it moves again from where it froze. Progress already claimed is never rolled back. (Free accounts also stop earning XP at Total Level 10 until they hold 1,000 $KINS, so the bar stops there too.)
Season 1 cosmetics
| Item | How it's earned |
|---|---|
| Season 1 Hat | Only ever earned from the Season 1 pass |
| Season 1 T-shirt | Only ever earned from the Season 1 pass |
| Season 1 Gold Hat | Only ever earned on the Kintara Club reward track |
| Season 1 Gold T-shirt | Only ever earned on the Kintara Club reward track |
| Season 1 Aura | Only ever earned at the top of the Kintara Club reward track |
The base pieces wear championship violet with the gold laurel; the Gold colourway inverts the palette — gold fabric with violet marks. The full set is tracked as the Season 1 Set in your Collection Log.
Season 1 Chest
A special chest tied to Season 1's reward tracks. Unlike kiosk chests it never rolls the common tools-and-materials tier and never pays out Gold — it rolls items only, from the higher rarity tiers (45% purple, 45% pink, 10% red).
Season 1 Laurel Trophy
Finishing the Season Pass finale grants the Season 1 Laurel Trophy — a personal furniture trophy you can place in your room or property. It is soulbound: it can never be traded, listed or sold. It sits a little lower than the guild champions' cups on purpose — a finisher's honour, not a guild one.
Guild side of the season
Season 1 is also the first scored round of Guild Seasons: guilds compete on a season board, and when the season ends the top three take home the Season 1 Champion's, Runners-up and Third Place trophies. See Guild Seasons for the scoring rules.
