NEW & IMPROVEMENTS

Contents

● Improved the Ancient Relic Crystal summoning device UI with added visual effects to make it more user-friendly.
- When it's possible to register a summon scroll, you will see the respective item slot light up.
- You will see a visual indicator move from the item slot towards the circle in the center of the UI when you register your scroll.
- Once you're able to summon, you will see an effect displayed in the center and around the Activate button in the UI.
- Closing the summoning UI will now remove any registered scrolls.
● Changed Imperial Delivery alerts that displayed at certain times due to the changes made to Imperial Cooking/Alchemy Deliveries so they are no longer restricted in amount by territory nor server.
Before After
The Imperial Crafting/Fishing Delivery Managers in each territory have begun receiving deliveries. The Imperial Fishing Delivery Managers in each territory have begun receiving deliveries.
● Quadrupled the time granted to loot the Mole that appears from Farming.

 

ALL CLASSES

● Added a new banner with information on Season Characters, their benefits, plus the option to create one after pressing the button to create a new character from the Character Selection screen.
- This UI will only be displayed for Adventurers who are able to create a Season Character.
 
● Changed the "test NPCs" in Battle Arena from monster-type to character-type.
- When skills are used on these test NPCs, any inflicted debuffs/CCs and the number of times the corresponding debuffs/CCs are inflicted will now be displayed.
 

We've changed the test monsters available in the Battle Arena to improve user experience when practicing for PvP and/or acquiring data on class changes. We've also added an interface that displays specific debuffs as well as a counter to keep track of the total number of times said debuff is being applied. We hope this encourages more Adventurers to test their mettle in the Battle Arena.
● Fixed the issue where the Invincible effect wouldn't go away if your screen froze temporarily while your character had the effect applied.
 
● Changed the idle animation for the Sleepless Sun Outfit.

NODE/CONQUEST WAR

 

● Changed Node War so that Lord guilds/alliances can participate in Node Wars of other territories.

※ However, they will not be able to participate in Level 1 Node Wars in Balenos/Serendia nor Node Wars within the territory they are lord of.

- Lord guilds/alliances can participate in Node Wars but they cannot occupy the nodes.

* Therefore, the node will be liberated if the Lord guild/alliance wins the Node War.

- The Node War victory condition is the same as before, that is to say the guild/alliance's fort has to be the only one remaining on the node.

- The Lord guild/alliance will get the same number of Resplendent Medal of Honor rewards for winning/liberating/losing in a Node War according to the level of the node.

- When the Lord guild/alliance wins a Node War, they won't be able to occupy the node, but they will be able to gain access to the war vendor according to the node tier they won up to 2 hours after the conclusion of the Node War.

※ Lord guilds/alliances that won a Node War can only use the war vendors on the Node War server in which they control a node.

● Made the following improvements to the Ballista siege weapon:

- Increased movement speed and turning of the Ballista by 50%.

- Increased movement command response speed (stopping after moving, moving after stopping, etc.) of the Ballista by 50%.

- Increased the hit damage of the Ballista on castle gates by 30%.

- Increased the hit damage of the Ballista on characters by 20%.

- Increased the hit damage of the Ballista on forts/command posts/field HQs by 30%.

- Increased the hit damage of the Ballista on annexes like Supply Depot, Recovery Center, and Cannon Observatory by 100%.

※ The Ballista can only be used by offensive guilds in Conquest War by constructing a Ballista Workshop to make the Ballista.

● Added a visual on the World Map (M) during Conquest War showing the state of the outer/inner castles gates in Calpheon, Mediah, and Valencia.

- The castle gates will be displayed as destroyed if they are destroyed.

● Fixed the issue where installing forts at a certain time would prevent you from installing forts in a node on the following day.

● Fixed the issue where occupying a node on a Thursday, then occupying it again on a Friday, wouldn't reset the purchase limit of the War Vendors.

 


UI

● Changed the Show Guild/Clan Member Names function in the General Settings window of the ESC (New) Menu to now toggle the names of Alliance members as well. The name of this function has been changed accordingly.

● Changed the Black Spirit's Safe icon on the lower right-hand corner of the screen to now light up after closing the Today's Rewards notice.

● Added the Ancient Spirit Dust item to the Aakman Temple's loot table listed in the Item Drop UI.

● Added a camera settings interface to make it easier to adjust the camera location and distance in gamepad UI mode.

- Hold the R stick on the gamepad to open the Adjust Camera UI.

● Changed the gamepad key guide for Node/Conquest War-exclusive mounts so it appears on the lower right-hand corner of the screen for gamepad mode.

● Fixed the issue where storing Marni's Stones in Storage would cause their item icons to appear abnormal.
