Encounter Points is a system introduced in version 4.1 where players could earn Encounter Points by completing quests, opening chests, collecting Occulus, and completing events. Players could exchange these points for Daily Rewards at the Adventurer's Guild and progress their Battle Pass.

It was discussed in the Developers Discussion that from version 4.8 onwards, any excess Encounter points you gain will be converted to Long Term Encounter Points. Spending Original Resin in the game will allow players to convert these Long Term Encounter Points back to daily Encounter Points. For every 30 Original Resins spent, you can convert enough Long Term Encounter Points to obtain one daily reward.
