This page is about the event. You may be looking for the quest.

The Maji Market is a series of events that take place in the Fairgrounds, accessed in the Southeast corner of Kilima Valley.

Summary

The Maji Market takes place at the Kilima Village Fairgrounds, which is open exclusively in the evenings and through the night. It’s a space to gather with people of all ages, grab sweet and savory foods, listen to music, and watch the fireworks show together. You’ll be able to unlock a new mini-area within Kilima Village as you explore new quests, earn prizes, and collect all of the goodies every merchant has to offer. While you’re there, be sure to snap all of the photo ops, chase some chapaas, and find a surprise or two (depending on the drum beat 😉).

In the world of Palia, night markets take place all over, at various times of the year, with different cultural sights and activities unique to their respective regions. In the days when Kilima was a bustling trade hub, the village hosted night markets that were larger than life, such as the ones seen in Bahari City!

Market

While some activities and vendors are mainstays, different events will bring with them their own unique touches to dazzle visitors, young and old alike.

Maji Market Events are limited themed events that open exclusively in the evenings and through the night.

List of Maji Market Events

Lore

The market's name derives from Maji, the dragon god of the Majiri. It is said that Maji observes the celebrations from the comfort of his own realm. Some even believe he assumes different physical forms to partake in the events himself to bless them with good fortune. That is why it is common for Maji Markets to carry items bearing his semblance. Perhaps seeing himself reflected in festive objects fills him with much Oneness.[1]

Activities

Chapaa Chase

The Chapaa Chase is a minigame you can play at the Maji Market Event to earn Chapa Chase Tickets Chapa Chase Tickets which can be exchanged for Plushies, Pillows, and a Wallpaper.

It is only active during the night, from about 12:10am to 2:10am.

The Player will compete with others to catch randomly appearing Chapaas.

Run towards a Chapaa, press the key, and while holding a Chapaa, deliver it to the pen next to the Chapaa Hut. Simply coming close to the pen will cause the creature to pop into the pen and count towards your contributions. Catch as many Chapaa as you can during the chase.

Every Chapaa the Player delivers will award Lucky Envelope.png 5 Lucky Envelopes, and all players are awarded a Group Bonus of Lucky Envelope.png 2 Lucky Envelopes per Chapaa caught during the chase. Envelopes can be exchanged for rewards at Chapaa Chase Prizes, or any of the other Luna New Year shops.

Update History

Build 0.176:

  • Maji Market: Luna New Year Introduced
    • For more information, see patch notes.

Build 0.167.2:Chapaa Chase Updates

  • More Chapaas now spawn at the beginning of the mini-game.
  • 50% more Chapaas now spawn per wave, and with 20% more frequency.
  • Increased the size of the spawn zones, and added more of them.
  • Added 1 additional Chapaa Chase ticket for every Chapaa rescued per each player actively chasing Chapaas during that session. So if a whole group captures 100 total Chapaas, each player who captures at least 1 will get 100 extra tickets.


Based on these changes, we’re now able to catch around 300 Chapaas per night during each round.

Stamp Card Improvements

When in a party, we lowered the Chapaa Chasers Party and Chapaa Champions Party requirements so that more people can obtain the accomplishments.

Chapaa Chase Store Updates

Added a new Maji the Dragon (water themed) plushie to the Chapaa Chase ticket store.

Build 0.167:Maji Market has arrived!
