Participation in these activities can yield further unique titles and two cosmetic banners.

Furthermore, the developers announced a specific in-game event to celebrate the anniversary. Players who log in between 9:00 AM PST and 6:00 PM PST on November 20 and November 21 were eligible to see a special announcement in the game. This announcement contained a code that grants the player title "13th Year Veteran" for every character on each server.
