[Korea] November's Updates and Improvements

• First part of 2023 KDnF Winter Festival Summary has arrived. This include various updates and improvements to the game.

Advanced Dungeon

• Dev's Note: We confirmed that the existing advanced dungeons were still highly used even after the Celesti update, so we made improvements to ensure optimal playability by eliminating as many inconvenient elements as possible. In addition, in White Cloud Valley, there are parts where it is mandatory to kill regular monsters depending on the difficulty, so we made improvements so that you can progress to the boss by only killing the named ones.
• The Noblesse Code is improved as follows:
• Epics that drop after clearing dungeons in areas other than bosses will be automatically acquired. As you are automatically moved to the village, the dungeon results screen will no longer appear.
• Noblesse Code town map and map travel time are shortened.
• The number of Bolt MX_3 appearances is fixed to 6 regardless of difficulty, and the appearance presentation is slightly changed.
• Improvements have been made so that Rupert Dostar can die even during the incoming scene.
• Mission: Total pattern time for cargo base breakthrough is changed to 70 seconds.
• The pattern reduction time increases when the Norse Army truck is destroyed.
• The reappearance time of the Norse Army truck pattern is reduced.
• When the robot weapon is destroyed, the pattern reduction time increases.
• The reappearance time of the robot weapon pattern is reduced.
• After starting and arriving, the character location will be modified to be closer to the pass gate.
• Noblesse Code: Dusk is improved as follows:
• The number of Bolt MX_3 appearances is fixed to 6 regardless of difficulty, and the appearance presentation is slightly changed.
• Improvements have been made so that Rupert Dostar can die even during the incoming scene.
• Meister's Laboratory will be improved as follows:
• GB-2 - Improved so that death occurs even if only 3 shapes are destroyed.
• GB-1 - Improved so that if all HP decreases during Phase 1, death occurs immediately.
• White Cloud Valley will be improved as follows:
• The progress gauge that increases when killing a named character in Normal/Master difficulty increases.

Add Mist Gear Pot

• Dev's Note: As mentioned in Part 1 of the Dungeon & Fighter Festival, an account-bound Mist Gear pot has been added to ease the difficulty of farming Mist Gear.
• Accordingly, we would like to additionally tell you what is currently being prepared. We would like to make some adjustments to the fact that the attractiveness of the current Mist Gear equipment is set low compared to the farming difficulty.
• Depending on the number of mist gears worn, set options are added when wearing 2 or 4 pieces. We will be updating the current highest adoption gear with a non-overly high option that will keep the location unchanged.
• In line with this, we would like to inform you in advance that a set option that is low but effective for buffers will also be added.
• This content will be updated in December.
• NPC Mystical Grimoire, ‘Mist Gear Pot’ will be added to items sold at the Hugh FitzLarry store, (Account-bound, cost 2 Mist Gear Parts)

Additional Changes

• Settings related to the Kunoichi former story will be changed.
• Dev's Note: Some content in the Kunoichi's previous story that did not fit the setting will be corrected.
  • The origin of Kunoichi was defined as 'Caranthir', and the connection with Balakr was deleted.
  • This information will also be reflected in DFU during maintenance on the 23rd.
• The representative character default setting policy is applied to the official website.
• Accounts that do not have a representative character set will automatically be set to the character with the earliest character creation date in the account after the maintenance on 11/23.
• You can change your representative character directly at the official website > My Page > My Character.
• Buff Enhancement Slots - The icons of all avatar slots except the top and bottom avatar slots will be changed.

Information on Upcoming Updates

• Dev's Note: We confirmed that there were many adventurers' opinions and interests regarding the immortality setting while playing on Dark Island Liberation difficulty.
  • We would like to talk about the direction of Immortality Set play based on wearing Death-ridden Armor.
  • When creating the Dark Island Liberation difficulty, we have prepared to use the item characteristics as an additional strategy element of the game.
  • It was judged that the fact that the liberation difficulty level can be cleared with a significantly lower risk by continuously inducing Immortality Setting does not fit the purpose of challenging content.
  • We plan to modify the cutting pattern without removing the uniqueness of the setting.
  • The cutting pattern modification direction is:
  • When the cutting pattern is hit, we plan to change it to hold with some production and change the holding time to gradually increase depending on the number of hits.
  • Accordingly, even Immortality Setting adventurers will be required to complete their pattern strategy.
  • For adventurers who are familiar with different settings and patterns, we are preparing for no additional difficulty changes or additional learning elements.
  • We will improve the level of completeness before the update so that adventurers can continue playing without major changes.
  • Please note that this information is scheduled to be updated on November 30th, as the proof quest reset approaches.
  • We will continue to do our best to ensure that the Liberation difficulty level serves as content that proves the strength of adventurers.
