Once Human Custom Dungeon Rewards: Finish Two Tasks by August 20
Once Human's Custom Dungeon challenge remains available through August 20, 2026. Players can earn a Stardust Secret Crate S13 (Epic) and a Battle Pass EXP Card by entering Custom Dungeons on three different Custom Servers and completing any one dungeon from start to finish. This guide separates the active player reward route from the closed creator registration, explains what counts as a different server and a complete clear, and provides a reliable claim and troubleshooting process.
Once Human players do not need to build a dungeon or win a difficult speedrun to complete the active Custom Dungeon reward route. The player challenge asks for two clear actions before August 20, and anyone preparing separate account purchases can review Topuplist and the dedicated Once Human top-up page, while the Stardust Secret Crate S13 and Battle Pass EXP Card are earned by visiting three different Custom Servers and finishing one qualifying dungeon.
The event began on July 23 and ends on August 20, 2026. It arrived with the expanded Custom Dungeons feature, which lets server hosts configure dungeon names, descriptions, recommended player counts, enemy statistics, special effects, gameplay rules, and reward settlements.
For ordinary players, the creative tools are background context rather than a requirement. The fastest route is to search for the Custom Dungeon tag, enter eligible dungeons on three distinct Custom Servers, complete at least one from beginning to end, then claim the two rewards from the event interface.

The Two Tasks That Matter
The current player challenge uses two independent conditions. First, enter Custom Dungeons in three different Custom Servers. Second, complete any one Custom Dungeon from start to finish.
Task | Required Result | Reward Route |
|---|---|---|
Explore different servers | Enter a Custom Dungeon on three distinct Custom Servers | Counts toward the event challenge |
Complete a dungeon | Finish one eligible Custom Dungeon from start to end | Counts toward the event challenge |
Claim after both tasks | Open the Custom Server event reward page | Stardust Secret Crate S13 (Epic) x1 and Battle Pass EXP Card x1 |
The wording “different Custom Servers” is important. Entering three dungeons hosted on the same server may provide useful practice, but it does not satisfy a requirement designed to count separate server experiences. Record each server name as progress is made.
The second task asks for a complete dungeon clear. Entering, fighting briefly, and leaving is not enough. The activity must reach its defined settlement or completion state so the server can report a successful finish.
What Counts as a Different Custom Server
A Custom Server is the hosted environment that contains the dungeon, not merely a different dungeon name. If one host publishes several challenges on the same server, those challenges may still belong to one server record for the event's first task.
Use the Custom Server browser and note the server identifier or full name before entering. After completing or exiting the dungeon, return to the event page and check whether the different-server counter increased. This direct confirmation is more reliable than guessing from visual differences between dungeon layouts.
Choose three servers that are clearly separate. Avoid similarly named duplicates unless their identifiers confirm that they are different. Community hosts may reuse popular words such as “easy,” “farm,” “boss,” or “reward,” so the title alone is not always enough.
If the counter does not move, do not repeat the same route immediately. Select a new server from another host, complete the entry process, and wait for the dungeon to load fully. The event may record the experience only after the character reaches the playable dungeon state.
Choosing the Best Dungeon for a Full Clear
Custom Dungeons can vary dramatically. Hosts can adjust enemy health, attack, movement speed, alert range, aggression rules, mechanics, player recommendations, special effects, and settlement rewards. A challenge advertised as a boss test may be far harder than a casual reward dungeon.
For the event's single-clear task, choose reliability over prestige. Read the dungeon description, recommended player count, expected difficulty, and any listed mechanics. A modest challenge that can be completed once is more useful than an extreme encounter that consumes the entire session.
Solo players should prioritize dungeons designed for one participant or those with forgiving settings. Groups can attempt more complex content, but every member should understand whether progress is awarded individually after settlement.
Pay attention to the host's stated victory condition. Some custom challenges may use survival time, boss elimination, objective interaction, route completion, or another settlement rule. Eliminating many enemies does not guarantee success if the actual condition remains unfinished.
A stable connection and enough playtime to reach settlement are also important. Leaving because of a schedule conflict can force the player to repeat the full dungeon. Start when there is enough time to understand the rules and complete the final objective.
The Fastest Reliable Route
Begin on an Official Server and open the Custom Server area through the event or browsing interface available in the current client. Search for the Custom Dungeon tag. The tag narrows the list to servers presenting compatible dungeon experiences.
Select the first clearly accessible server and enter its dungeon. If the dungeon appears manageable, use it for the complete-clear requirement. Finishing it can satisfy both one different-server visit and the full-clear task at the same time.
After settlement, check the event tracker. If both counters updated, only two additional distinct server entries remain. Those visits do not need to repeat the same full clear unless the live task text says otherwise. Still, allow each dungeon to load correctly before leaving so the server visit can register.
Return to the tracker after the second and third servers. This short verification prevents all three visits from being completed only to discover that one did not count.
Once both tasks show completion, use the current Custom Server Event Center or the event route shown in the client to claim the rewards. Do not wait for automatic mail unless the interface specifically states that delivery is automatic.
Why the Creator Registration Is Different
The Custom Dungeon campaign contains player tasks and creator-facing activities, but their dates are not identical. The Custom Rising Star Plan sign-up ran from July 23 through July 29. As of August 5, that registration window is over.
Players can still complete the challenge rewards through August 20. Server hosts can also have separate limited-time perk conditions during the wider July 23-August 20 event period, with eligible host benefits distributed after the activity under the official rules.
This distinction matters because an old promotional page may still display the registration button or creator explanation. A player seeking the Stardust Secret Crate does not need to submit a creator application. They need the two live gameplay tasks.
Do not spend time designing and publishing a dungeon solely because an expired sign-up page appears in search results. Creating content can still be enjoyable, but it is not the fastest path to the active player rewards described here.
Completing a Dungeon From Start to Finish
A full clear begins when the player properly enters the custom instance and ends when the dungeon reaches its configured settlement. The exact sequence differs because hosts can design their own mechanics.
Before moving, read on-screen instructions and the dungeon description. Identify the main objective, failure condition, and recommended participant count. If the rules mention a timer or survival requirement, defeating enemies early may not end the challenge.
During the run, avoid leaving through a menu immediately after the apparent final enemy falls. Wait for the completion message, settlement screen, reward display, or return prompt. The event tracker needs the successful completion state, not the player's assumption that the encounter is finished.
If the dungeon appears impossible because of extreme enemy values or unclear mechanics, leaving and choosing another server is reasonable. The event does not require clearing a specific creator's challenge. Preserve time and use a route that matches the account's gear and group size.
After the settlement, open the event tracker before starting another activity. A completed counter confirms that the server transmitted the result. If it remains unchanged, capture the dungeon and server details before trying another eligible challenge.
Understanding the Two Rewards
The Stardust Secret Crate S13 is the more immediately recognizable reward. Its Epic label identifies the crate's rarity, while its actual obtainable contents should be checked in the live item description. Do not promise a specific item that the crate interface does not guarantee.
The Battle Pass EXP Card contributes to Battle Pass progression under its listed use conditions. Check whether it is automatically applied, stored in inventory, or requires activation. Also inspect any validity period before saving it for later.
These are modest but efficient rewards because the required route can be completed through three server visits and one successful dungeon. Their value is highest for players already active in the current season or interested in seeing how community-created encounters differ from official content.
Neither reward should be described as a cash prize or guaranteed premium cosmetic. The event page and item tooltips define their exact account value.
Avoiding Progress That Does Not Count
The most common mistake is visiting multiple dungeons on only one Custom Server. The event asks for three different servers, so variety within the same hosted environment may not advance the counter.
The second mistake is leaving before settlement. A player may defeat a major enemy yet miss a final interaction, exit zone, survival timer, or confirmation screen. Follow the creator's stated completion rule.
The third mistake is entering through an outdated page rather than the live event route. Always check the active client for the current Custom Dungeon tag and challenge tracker.
The fourth mistake is assuming rewards will arrive automatically. When both objectives are complete, return to the reward page and press the claim button if one appears.
The final mistake is pursuing the closed Rising Star registration instead of the active player challenge. The July 29 creator registration deadline does not cancel the July 23-August 20 gameplay reward period.
Troubleshooting Missing Progress
First confirm that the selected environment was a Custom Server and the activity carried the Custom Dungeon tag. A normal dungeon or official-server activity with a similar theme may not count.
For the server-visit task, verify that the latest server was genuinely different from the previous entries. Record identifiers, not only names. Allow the dungeon to load into a playable state before exiting.
For the clear task, confirm that a settlement message appeared. If the run ended through a disconnect, host shutdown, manual exit, or failed objective, the event may not record a completion.
Restart the client and reopen the Event Center. Small display delays can make completed progress appear later. Check mail and inventory if the tracker shows a claimed reward but the item is not immediately visible.
If the problem continues, contact official support with the account ID, server information, dungeon name, host server identifier, completion time, and screenshots. Never include a password or verification code.
Should You Keep Playing Custom Dungeons After Claiming?
The event tasks are an introduction to a larger creative system. After claiming the crate and EXP card, players can continue only if the custom experiences themselves are enjoyable.
High-difficulty boss designs can test optimized builds. Speedrun routes reward execution and path knowledge. Bonus dungeons may focus on unusual reward or rule combinations, while experimental creations can offer mechanics that official content does not normally use.
The quality will vary because hosts control many parameters. Use descriptions, recommended player counts, community feedback, and personal experience to select future challenges. A difficult dungeon is not automatically well designed, and an easy dungeon is not automatically uninteresting.
Players considering separate paid content should keep that decision independent from this free event route. After confirming account, region, product, and budget, players can complete only a planned purchase through a trusted channel, while Custom Dungeon rewards continue to depend on gameplay completion.
Final Recommendation
Complete the Custom Dungeon challenge before August 20 even if you do not plan to become a server creator. Enter eligible dungeons on three clearly different Custom Servers, use the easiest suitable one for a full start-to-finish clear, and verify the tracker after every step.
Do not confuse the expired July 29 creator registration with the still-active player reward period. The two player tasks remain simple, and the Stardust Secret Crate S13 plus Battle Pass EXP Card provide a reasonable return for exploring the feature.
Finish early, wait for the settlement screen, and claim through the live event interface. Those three habits prevent almost every avoidable loss of progress.
