Boss Fight and Raid Title Changes

We have continuously updated character progression with changes and improvements. In the last Summer Update back in 2022, some changes to the titles were made so that they became account-wide. However, some of the important titles were kept to be on a per-character basis. As we continue from the Winter Update, we will make changes to Boss Fight and Raid Titles so that they are account-wide to ease character progression. Shared titles will also contribute to the total title count.

We are conducting internal discussions regarding the recent title ‘Attack of Steel Machines’ in terms of separate rewards. Additional details will be included in future announcements.

PvP Changes and Balance

Across a total of 4 Balance Patches starting from last December, we have made balance changes mostly based on dungeons. With the dungeon balance patches set, we will be starting on the PVP balance patches. Along with these patches, we plan to make some changes to the PVP system as well. Following the recent feedback, we will also bring in the addition of PvP-exclusive weapons as well.

Buff UI Improvement

We will bring improvements to the visibility of buffs and allow a customizable UI for buffs. Players will have the ability to group and toggle the visibility of buff timers, buffs to self, and buffs from party members.

Pet Extraction Item on Sale

There has been much feedback regarding pet extraction. Although pets can be obtained through the Item Mall and Epic Quests will also allow players to receive Phoru pet, there have been requests to increase the availability for pets that are more difficult to obtain as well as fully evolved pets. Following the request, we are considering an item to enable players to extract their registered pets to make them tradeable.

Lithia Mod Force Skills

We plan to update Mod force skills for Lithia after the update of Lithia’s 4th Path.

New Region Dungeon, Raid, and New Equipment

A new region will be added and with the addition, updates will be made to the dungeon, story, and raid. With new dungeons, a new equipment set will also be released. A new system will be applied to the equipment where players can acquire the necessary materials to craft the equipment from the new dungeon and raids. The upcoming raid will consist of 6 players.
