The Whiteout Survival Shining City Pack is an irregular event that lasts for 5 days. It is mainly focused on pack purchases, Lucky Glorious Tome Chests, and the Limited-Time Exchange Shop.
In this guide, we will cover how the Shining City Pack event works, what Glorious Tomes are used for, the chest reward rates, daily rewards, First Daily packs, exchange shop items, and mistakes to avoid.
What Is the Shining City Pack Event? โ๏ธ
The Shining City Pack is an irregular Whiteout Survival event with integrated pack purchases. It runs for 5 days and allows players to obtain Lucky Glorious Tome Chests through Shining City Pack purchases.
When you open a Lucky Glorious Tome Chest, you receive a random amount of Glorious Tomes. These tomes can then be used in the Limited-Time Exchange Shop to redeem city skins, other items, and resources.
How the Shining City Pack Works โ๏ธ
The main event loop is simple:
| Step | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 1 | Purchase a Shining City Pack |
| 2 | Receive Lucky Glorious Tome Chests |
| 3 | Open the chests to get Glorious Tomes |
| 4 | Use Glorious Tomes in the Exchange Shop |
| 5 | Save unused Glorious Tomes for future events |
The most important detail is that Glorious Tomes are permanently valid. They are not cleared after the event ends, and they can be kept for the next event.
Why Glorious Tomes Matter ๐
Glorious Tomes are the event token for the Shining City Pack. They are used to redeem rewards from the Exchange Shop.
Since they do not expire, players do not need to rush every exchange unless the shop contains something they truly want.
Lucky Glorious Tome Chest Reward Rates ๐ฒ
Opening a Lucky Glorious Tome Chest guarantees a random amount of Glorious Tomes between 5 and 100. The reward rates shown for the chest are listed below.
| Glorious Tome Reward | Drop Rate |
|---|---|
| Glorious Tome x5 | 30.000% |
| Glorious Tome x10 | 25.000% |
| Glorious Tome x20 | 18.000% |
| Glorious Tome x30 | 12.000% |
| Glorious Tome x40 | 7.000% |
| Glorious Tome x60 | 5.000% |
| Glorious Tome x100 | 3.000% |
Practical Tip โ
Most chest openings will likely give smaller Glorious Tome amounts because the higher rewards have lower drop rates. Plan around steady accumulation instead of expecting the x100 reward every time.
Daily Rewards in Shining City Pack ๐
The Shining City Pack event includes daily rewards. Players can claim 100 Gems for free every day during the event. There is also an 80 Glorious Tome bonus reward tied to a daily Shining City Pack purchase.
| Daily Reward Type | Reward |
|---|---|
| Free daily claim | 100 Gems |
| Daily purchase bonus | 80 Glorious Tomes |
Daily Reward Tip โ
Even if you are not planning to focus heavily on the event, make sure to claim the free 100 Gems every day while the event is active.
Shining City First Daily Packs ๐
The event has First Daily pack bonuses. Your first Shining City Pack purchase of the day can give bonus rewards for every tier.
The First Daily packs contain:
| Pack Contents |
|---|
| Lucky Glorious Tome Chest |
| Gems |
| VIP XP |
| Custom Resource Chest |
| Alliance Gift |
First Daily Chest Amounts ๐
The event screenshot shows increased Lucky Glorious Tome Chest amounts for the First Daily purchase compared to the regular pack amounts.
| Pack Tier | First Daily Lucky Glorious Tome Chests | Regular Lucky Glorious Tome Chests |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | x6 | x3 |
| Tier 2 | x16 | x10 |
| Tier 3 | x150 | x100 |
After buying the First Daily pack, the packs return to the original Lucky Glorious Tome Chest amount. After the first purchase, the first two packs can be bought up to 3 more times, while the third pack can be bought up to 5 more times.
First Daily Pack Tip โ
The First Daily bonus is limited, so the event clearly favors the first purchase of the day more than repeat purchases. Always check the remaining count before buying anything.
Exchange Shop Rewards ๐ช
The Shining City Pack Exchange Shop lets players use Glorious Tomes to redeem preferred items. The page states that Glorious Tomes can be used for City Skins, other items, and resources in the Limited-Time Exchange Shop.

|---|---|

| Other items | Available in the Exchange Shop |

Mistakes to Avoid โ ๏ธ
Forgetting the Free Daily Gems ๐
The event allows players to claim 100 Gems for free every day. Missing this claim means losing easy value during the event.
Spending Glorious Tomes Too Quickly โ ๏ธ
Glorious Tomes are permanently valid and can be used in later events. Do not spend them just because the current event is ending.
Ignoring the First Daily Limit ๐
The First Daily bonus only applies once per day. After that, packs return to the original Lucky Glorious Tome Chest amount.
Assuming Every Shop Is the Same ๐ช
The wiki notes that store items may vary depending on your state timeline and available event skins. Always check your own in-game shop before planning exchanges.
Picking Limited Items Without Checking Value โ
The listed limited items are not recommended by the source. Review your options carefully before using Glorious Tomes on them.
