Scenario Dungeon
- Dev's Note: While Scenario Dungeons serve as the foundation for the game's story and world-building, the previous requirement, that players *must* complete the entire scenario storyline to access other game content, often acted as a barrier that hindered, rather than enhanced, our adventurers' immersion.
- To address this and allow you to enjoy the game in a way that suits your individual playstyle, we have decided to separate "Quest Completion" from "Content Entry Requirements," starting with the Sky of a Thousand Seas Season.
- Now, provided your character meets the necessary Level and Fame requirements, you can immediately access core game content for a given zone without having to complete every single story quest in that area. Through this change, we aim to provide a smoother and more enjoyable gaming environment for those of you who prioritize rapid character progression.
- At the same time, we have also implemented improvements designed to reinforce the core value of the scenario system: "Narrative Immersion."
- Previously, because Scenario Dungeons doubled as prerequisites for content access, we were constrained by the need to artificially compress the pacing of the gameplay experience.
- By decoupling content entry requirements, we have created an environment where you can focus solely on the enjoyment of the story itself.
- Accordingly, starting with the Sky of a Thousand Seas Season, Scenario Dungeons will no longer consume Fatigue Points.
- We have also rebalanced the difficulty, ensuring it remains unaffected by your character's combat stats, so that you can experience a level of challenge that feels appropriate to the narrative context.
- Furthermore, we have designed the Scenario Dungeons to offer more than just text-based reading; they are now structured to allow you to naturally engage with various gameplay elements and truly immerse yourself within the game's expansive world.
- We sincerely hope that these improvements successfully meet the needs of all our adventurers, whether you prioritize "rapid access to content" or a "deep, immersive narrative."
- Moving forward, we will continue to respect your individual playstyles and do our utmost to deliver an ever-evolving and enriching scenario experience. Thank you.
- Three new scenario dungeons for Sky of a Thousand Seas will be added:
- Star Turtle Great Archives
- The Apostate's Castle
- Labyrinth of Paradoxes
- Entry Level: Level 115 or higher
- Personnel limit: 1 person
- Entry reputation: doesn't exist
- Fatigue consumption: doesn't exist
- Minimap icon: The following icon is added to the Sky of a Thousand Seas scenario dungeon minimap.
Final boss: The location of the final boss in the story is displayed.
Mid-boss: The location of the mid-boss within the story is displayed.
Safety island: Your current location is saved upon entry. When retreating, some progress and selected branches are reset, and Upon re-entering, you can restart from the last safe zone reached.- Star Turtle Great Archives:
- A special and mysterious grand archive created by Meyer's magic.
- In the center of the village where the record keepers managing the Grand Archives reside, there is a giant tree created by magic.
- The tree is not large enough to be used as a library, but its interior space has been expanded by magic, and it is said that it is impossible to even accurately determine where the end is.
- A place that stores all memories of the Celestial Realm traveled through the mist.
- It was originally called the Great Archive, but as the number of star turtles accompanying the record keeper increased, it came to be called the Star Turtle Great Archive.
- The Apostate's Castle:
- A place where the Followers of Light resided, once called the Castle of Radiance.
- That immense scale gives an idea of the magnitude of faith in Remedios.
- If you raise the sacred fire to the three massive bell towers and the altar at the highest point of the castle, Remidios would respond with revelations accompanied by brilliant radiance.
- However, now none of the followers of the light offer prayers hoping for radiance.
- Labyrinth of Paradoxes:
- It is a massive structure built in the center of a twisted city formed by the outcast in a secluded corner of Sky of a Thousand Seas.
- This building, which has the shape of an inverted triangle, rises to a scale that seems to pierce the sky, exuding both ominousness and grandeur.
- When this building first appeared, it came to be called the Labyrinth of Paradox due to its appearance, which looked as if it were standing upside down, and its complex, labyrinthine internal structure.
- It is said that it is currently surrounded by the power of the apocalypse, making even access difficult, and that no one knows what is happening inside except for the members of Vanitas.
- Scenario Dungeon Rewards: Items other than quest rewards do not appear in the Sky of a Thousand Seas scenario dungeon. You can obtain the following items upon clearing each quest.
Level 115 Legendary Equipment Pot- World Map:
- New Area - Lower Sky of a Thousand Seas. Three new towns will be added.
- New town - The Last Holy Site:
- A floating island at the very end of Sky of a Thousand Seas.
- It is an impressive island with the most beautiful nature in Sky of a Thousand Seas, where the village appears hidden due to its unique topography.
- It was a peaceful island where wandering travelers stayed, but after the invasion by Vanitas, it became the last stronghold.
- Currently, it is called the 'Last Sanctuary' where the evacuated people of Sky of a Thousand Seas stay.
- New town - Square of the Abandoned God:
- The village located in front of the Castle of Radiance, where the Followers of Light who follow Remidios gather.
- Originally, it was a vibrant village filled with warm light and the energy of life, but
- It is now nothing more than abandoned land, devoid of light and life.
- New town - Bridge of Ruin:
- The last bridge leading into the twisted city.
- Due to not being maintained for a long time, parts of it have collapsed and broken, and it has been left neglected.
- People call this bridge the Bridge of Ruin, and it is said that this is due to the two meanings contained in the name.
- One thing is that anyone who crosses this bridge toward the twisted city will eventually enter the path of ruin.
- And another reason is said to be that it implies that even if those emerging from the Twisted City head toward the Celestial Realm, they will all fall.
- Quest:
- 'Season 15 Sky of a Thousand Seas' will be added to the quest book.
- Three new Act Quests will be added.
- Improvements to the quest association system:

- Simplifying town structure:
- The town's opening conditions will be changed so that it opens upon reaching each level.
- The quest is removed from the town open conditions.
- Some town changes will be removed. For some towns, changes are made based on quests.
- Remove content preconditions: The opening conditions for the content in season 14 will be changed to open when player hit level 115. The prerequisites for the Content Guide quest will be changed to align with the removal of quest conditions.
- Adventurer Story added:
- Dev's Note: In accordance with the removal of content prerequisites mentioned above, and to allow characters to immediately Awaken and access content upon meeting the level requirement, we have removed the Awakening Quests.
- Furthermore, the Awakening storyline, which was previously only partially viewable within the Quest Book, has been relocated to a new menu called "Adventurer Story," where you can now view the entire narrative at a glance.
- You may replay the Awakening Quests you previously experienced at any time via the "Replay Episodes" feature within the Quest Book.
- A new menu, 'Adventurer Story', will be added. Adventurer Stories are unlocked upon achieving each Awakening stage.
- As the Awakening Quest has been removed, the Awakening conditions will be changed as follows.
- 1st Awakening: Achieved Level 50, Confront Apostle Diregie, Cleared Quest → Achieved Level 50.
- 2nd Awakening: Achieved Level 75 Awakening - [2nd Awakening Name] Clear 4 Quests → Achieved Level 75.
- Neo Awakening: Cleared the Neo Awakening (4/4) quest to reach Level 100 → Achieved Level 100.
- You can play the 2nd Awakening Quest through 'Season 5 Anton the Fire Eater' in the Quest Book, and the Neo Awakening Quest through 'Episode Replay' in 'Season 12 A New Journey'.

- Suppression System:
- Dev's Note: The "Suppression System" is a new feature applied to Sky of a Thousand Seas
- content, designed to offer adventurers a fresh combat experience.
- By seizing the critical moment during specific monster attack patterns and utilizing skills imbued with "Suppression Power," you will be able to experience the thrill of shifting the very tide of battle.
- The Suppression System is available in the "Star Turtle Grand Archives," "Sanctuary of the Apostate," "Labyrinth of Paradox," and "Memories of Valor."
- The Suppression System will be added to the Sky of a Thousand Seas content.
- The 'Suppression UI' appears when some monsters in the Sky of a Thousand Seas content use specific patterns.
- At this time, if you attack a monster with a skill granted 'Suppression,' you can reduce the suppression count.
- When the 'Suppression UI' is displayed, the quick slots for suppression skills are highlighted.
- The suppression value of each skill can be checked in the skill information (tooltip).
- Suppression power is added to skills with a hold effect against enemies that cannot be grabbed.
- Suppression power is proportional to the hold time, and the groggy time can be extended with the hold chain system.
- You can check the detailed suppression power values in the skill tooltip.
- You can find skills with suppression power by using tag search in the skill window.
- If a hold effect is added or removed due to skill blooming, suppression power is also added or removed.
- For classes lacking hold effects against ungrabbable enemies, suppression power is added to some skills.
- Hold chain system:
- The Hold Chain System is applied when a monster enters a stunned state, such as by successfully 'subduing' it or completely depleting its 'Incapacitation Gauge'.
- While the Hold Chain System is active, hitting with a skill that has a Suppression option can extend the Stagger duration.
- The duration of the stun extension caused by using skills is adjusted as follows based on the number of party members.
- Application Method: Applied as the value obtained by dividing the suppression power by the number of party members (rounded up to the second decimal place)
- Note: However, for some special dungeons, a different method may be applied considering their unique characteristics.
- You can experience the subjugation system by summoning a 'subjugation sandbag' in the training room.
The Final Regulator
- Dev's Note:
- "The Final Regulator" serves as the Hell Party content for the Sky of a Thousand Seas season; in its design, we strove to preserve a sense of accessibility and a light, streamlined experience while simultaneously enhancing the visual presentation associated with the new drop elements.
- To meet player expectations, we designed the new Sky of a Thousand Seas farming elements, "Covenants" and "Covenant Crystals", so that their respective rarity grades are displayed simultaneously through distinct visual effects.
- The newly introduced "Omen of Tuning" system serves as an extension of the aforementioned design philosophy; appearing occasionally as a special encounter, it offers players the opportunity to earn additional rewards beyond the standard drops.
- The entry requirement for "The Final Regulator" remains the same as that for "Revelation of Ruin," though the required number of items has been increased to 62.
- This adjustment was determined by taking into account the variety of drops available in this dungeon, including equipment, Covenants, and Covenant Crystals, and by recalibrating the expected reward rates to reflect a slight increase in the supply of Revelations and other Soul-based resources.
- We will continue to closely monitor the situation to ensure that we maintain an environment that facilitates a smooth and enjoyable gameplay experience for everyone.

- Star Turtle Grand Archives:
- A special and mysterious Grand Archive created by Meyer's magic.
- In the center of the village where the record keepers who manage the Grand Archive reside, there stands a massive tree created by magic. Although the tree is not large enough to be used as a library, its interior space has been expanded by magic to such an extent that it is said its exact end cannot be surveyed.
- It is a place that stores all the memories of the Celestial Realm traveled through the mist; originally called the Grand Archive, it came to be known as the Star Turtle Grand Archive as the number of Star Turtles accompanying the record keepers increased.

Pilgrimage of Life / Pilgrimage of Radiance

- I would like to explain the design direction for the currency dungeon. For this dungeon, we have incorporated tradeable items into the reward pool to create a structure that offers indirect opportunities to acquire valuable resources.
- Key examples include the "Black Fang Primal Transformation Scroll" (guaranteed conversion item), "Incomplete Soul Crystals," and "Void Soul Extraction Tickets," all of which can be obtained in forms that are either account-bound or tradeable.
- We added these farming-related items to enhance the actual experience for Adventurers who actively engage in farming; furthermore, we anticipated that the inclusion of tradeable items would improve the overall game environment. We also aimed to provide a wider range of gameplay options for diverse types of Adventurers through this design.
- Our goal was to create a structure where the dungeon serves not merely as a source of currency, but also as a farming aid that integrates with the game's economic ecosystem, thereby offering a meaningful choice for gameplay.

Part 2: New Farming System / Character
Covenant System
- Dev's Note:
- "Covenant" is a new farming system being added to Sky of the Thousand Sea. It was designed to improve upon the previously unintuitive Fusion Stone equipping process by allowing items to be equipped directly into dedicated slots.
- While "Covenant Crystals" appear as ordinary crystals in your inventory, we wanted to provide visual satisfaction through a special effect: upon equipping one to your character, its true power is unleashed, transforming it into a unique icon that reflects its specific characteristics.
- Upon the update, any Fusion Stones currently fused to your gear will be automatically detached and transferred to the "Covenant" slots.
- Unlike the previous system, which limited you to equipping one Fusion Stone per gear slot, the new system allows you to equip multiple "Covenant Crystals" without slot restrictions.
- Certain utility options previously provided by Fusion Stones will now be available through "Covenant's Blessing" and "Covenant Crystals."
- Additionally, Epic-grade Fusion Stones can be upgraded into "Mist Crystals", which are equivalent to Legendary "Covenant Crystals", allowing you to retain and utilize specific special options from the original items.
- We are also well aware of the concerns Adventurers have regarding cooldown reduction stats.
- The cooldown reduction options previously provided by "Venus" Fusion Stones have been transferred to "Covenant's Blessing," maintaining the same values. Similarly, options for increasing special object damage have been converted into a special object damage coefficient, ensuring that Adventurers do not experience a drop in power.
- Furthermore, we are preparing a system for the "Apocalypse Legion" that allows you to choose between "Final Damage" and "Cooldown Reduction" effects, enabling you to develop your character in the direction you prefer.
- As promised during the "DNF-ON" event, we have prepared various support mechanisms to alleviate the burden of RNG-heavy elements you might have experienced during the "Sunken Deapth" season's farming process.
- The key support systems are as follows:
- Covenant: Duplicate-prevention drop system
- Covenant / Covenant Crystal: Guaranteed acquisition system
- Covenant Crystal: No equipment slot restrictions
- We would also like to address the acquisition animation for the "Covenant" item that was briefly showcased during "DNF-ON."
- Although this animation will not be included in the Test Server build, we are refining it to ensure it meets your expectations and will present an even more impressive version when the update goes live.
- The animation for the "Primordial Covenant" is designed so that all Adventurers present in the same map can view it together upon the item's initial equipping.
- We hope you enjoy sharing the moment of this first acquisition with fellow Adventurers.
- Covenant System:
- The 'Fusion Stone' system will be removed, and the 'Covenant' system will be added.
- Any Fusion Stones currently equipped will be automatically removed upon the character's first login and will be equipped in the Covenant Crystal slot of the Covenant tab.
- You can equip 'Covenant' and 'Covenant Crystal' in the Covenant tab.
- The Covenant tab is available from level 115.
- You can only wear one Covenant, but you can hold a large amount of Covenant Points.
- The Covenant slot in the center is available from level 115.
- The Covenant Crystal can be equipped in 11 slots excluding the Covenant Slot, and has relatively few Covenant Points.
- However, Covenant Crystals of Primordial Rarity can only be equipped in the 3 slots at the bottom center.
- When held in the inventory, Covenant Crystal have the same icon for each set; upon equipping, they change to a dedicated icon corresponding to the set, rarity, and equip slot.
- Covenant and Covenant Crystal cannot be changed within the dungeon.
- When equipping an Epic or Primordial Covenant Crystal, the exclusive animation for that Covenant will play.
- This animation plays when each character first equips it for each rarity/type.
- When the animation plays due to the first equipping of the Primordial Grade Covenant Crystal, adventurers in the same map will also have the animation played.
- The Primordial Grade Covenant Crystal animation can be replayed using the replay function in the Armory.
- In the case of replays, the cutscene will not play for adventurers in the same map.
- Obtain the Covenant Equipment:
- This is equipment obtainable when playing the new Sky of the Thousand Sea content.
- It can also be obtained from some Sunken Depth content.
- Target Content: Moon-Submerged Lake, Azure Main, Temple of Death, Unshackled Nightmare, Delezie: Prologue, Delezie: Epilogue (Normal / Hard)
- The Covenant Equipment is subject to the acquisition correction system.
- Each rarity can only be obtained once, and it is automatically registered in the Arsenal upon drop.
- If you obtain the Covenant Equipment by opening consumables, it will not be automatically registered in the Armory.
- Covenant held in your inventory or registered in the armory will no longer appear.
- When registering a higher rarity Covenant Crystal to the Armory, lower rarity Covenant Equipment of the same set are also registered to the Armory.
- In the case of adjustments, the appearance probability of a specific rarity is not changed, and the appearance probability of each Covenant Equipment within the rarity is redistributed evenly.
- Example: When the Primordial Covenant Equipment appears, if you have already acquired 3 Covenant Equipment, 1 of the remaining Covenant Equipment, excluding those 3, will appear with equal probability.
- Example: When the First Covenant Equipment appears, if you have already acquired 11 Covenant Equipment, the remaining 1 Covenant Equipment is guaranteed to appear.
- If you have acquired all Covenant Equipment of that rarity and there are no more Covenant Equipment available, it will be replaced by an item that grants Mist Covenant experience.
- Covenant Points:
- There are a total of 12 types of Covenant Points, and exclusive Covenant Points are combined with each other.
- Covenant Points can be obtained by wearing the same Covenant / Covenant Crystal.
- Covenant Points obtained prior to Equipment Set Point 2550 (Achieved Primordial Stage) are replaced with Set Points and function as Common Set Points instead of Covenant Points.
- After reaching 2550 Equipment Set Points, any additional Covenant Points obtained will accumulate as Covenant Points, and upon reaching a certain number of points, Covenant Set Options and Covenant Blessings will be activated.
- Common Covenant Points are added to the single Covenant with the highest Exclusive Covenant Point value.
- If there are no dedicated Covenant points to be combined, shared Covenant points will not be applied.
- New equipment added:
- New Covenant Equipment and Covenant Crystal Equipment will be added.
- The Covenant Equipment is divided into the 'Covenant of Light' and the 'Covenant of Mist'.
- You can only wear one type of covenant at a time, regardless of whether it is the Covenant of Light or the Covenant of Mist.
- The Covenant of Light is equipment that possesses high stats on its own and exclusive Covenant points for each set.
- The Covenant of Light is registered in the Armory upon dismantling and can be converted through the 'Covenant Crystal Conversion' system.
- The Covenant of Light is equipment that cannot be deleted, such as by selling to a shop, discarding, or gifting.
- The Covenant of Light cannot be transcended.
- For the Covenant of Light, items created after the initial registration in the Armory will not be added even if registered again, and the number held will not be deducted even if additional items are created.
- The Covenant of Mist has shared Covenant points, so it can be worn with any set.
- The Covenant of Mist is equipped by default and cannot be unequipped separately.
- When equipping the Covenant of Light, equip it to replace the Covenant of Mist.
- Covenant Crystal is equipment that assists the Covenant, possessing lower stats and Covenant Points than the Covenant Equipment.
- Adjustment / promotion is available.
- Tuned Covenant Crystals can be converted into Covenant Crystals of another set you possess through Covenant/Covenant Crystal Conversion, and the Tuning value is retained when converted to Covenant Crystals of the same rarity.
- New Covenant / Covenant Crystal Types:
- The Covenant of Light is registered in the Armory upon dismantling.
- You can obtain the following materials when dismantling the Covenant Crystal.
- Unique Covenant Crystal yield separate materials upon dismantling.
- 3 All Set Covenant Crystal Shards
- The materials required for tuning the Covenant Crystal are as follows. Covenant points increase when tuning Covenant Crystal.
- Live Server: The required Pilgrimage Seal / Gold amount is reduced by 20%.
- When upgrading a 3-tuned Covenant Crystal, it is upgraded to equipment of the same Covenant higher rarity.
- When upgrading a Rare Covenant, you can upgrade to the Covenant of your choice.
- The materials required for the Covenant Crystal upgrade are as follows.
- The costs required for conversion are as follows. If there is no Covenant Crystal of the same rarity to maintain the tuning value upon conversion, the Soul of Radiance used for tuning is returned.
- The cost of transcending the Covenant Crystal is as follows. Glimmering Covenant Crystal (Rare) and Unique Covenant Crystal cannot be transcended.
- New Soul added: New Soul Items will be added. Souls of Dizziness and Souls of Radiance are stored in the Soul Inventory.
- Covenant Set Options:
- Activate the same Covenant as the equipped set (left) and Activate a different Covenant from the set currently being worn (right).
- When you have 25 or more Covenant Points, the Covenant's Blessing option is applied.
- You can obtain final damage, buff power, and adventurer fame applied based on your Covenant points. The effect is strengthened as the points grow.
- When Covenant Points reach 1,200, the following effects are additionally applied.
- Skill cooldown reduction +18.5%
- Skill range +15%
- The Covenant Set Option is activated when Set Points reach 2,550 / Covenant Points reach 1,200.
- For each set of Covenant Set Options, you can select and use one of one unique option or one of two special options. Special options can only be selected if you have equipped the same Covenant as the set you are currently wearing.
- Covenant Set Options have rarity and are enhanced upon reaching a certain point.: Unique / Legendary / Epic / Primordial
Covenant of Mist
- Dev's Note: I would like to explain the "Covenant of Mist" system.
- The Covenant of Mist is a modified version of the "Mist Assimilation" system; it retains the original mechanic where characters within the same account benefit from the system.
- However, unlike the previous Mist Assimilation, the effects are not always active; they apply only when the "Covenant of Light" is *not* equipped.
- Players who reach Level 30 will start at the "Unique" tier and can progress up to the "Primordial" tier through gameplay.
- Once you reach the Primordial tier, any additional experience points (XP) earned can be used to guarantee the acquisition of a specific Covenant for a character of your choice.
- For those actively farming, we anticipate that future support systems will guarantee a minimum level of progression for alt characters entering the system later.
- We understand there may be concerns regarding the Level 100 requirement. To address this, we have balanced the stats so that an Covenant of Light offers slightly better performance than a Covenant of Mist of the same rarity.
- We also plan to provide a steady supply of XP through upcoming farming content and are preparing methods for latecomers to earn XP at an accelerated rate.
- We will continue to monitor the situation closely and make adjustments as needed.
- The system name of 'Mist Assimilation' will be changed to 'Covenant of Mist', and the UI will be changed.
- The Covenant of Mist grows in synchronization with the existing Mist Assimilation stage and is equipment that has shared Covenant points.
- It applies on an account basis, so all characters level 115 or higher within the account can equip it.
- If a character level 115 or higher does not have the Covenant of Light equipped, it will be automatically equipped.
- When equipping the Covenant of Light, the options of that Covenant of Light are applied instead of the Covenant of Mist.
- When you unequip the Covenant of Light you are wearing, the Covenant of Mist will be automatically equipped.

Female Gunner Dot Improvement
- Dev's Note: We have updated the pixel art visuals for the Female Gunner's base avatar. We hope this visual update provides a more satisfying gameplay experience for all Adventurers.
Skill Chain System
- Dev's Note:
- As the number of character skills has increased, players have faced a shortage of skill slots and a greater reliance on skill commands.
- We updated the Skill Chain system to ensure that the variety of skills becomes a source of enjoyment rather than stress.
- Additionally, we have clearly defined the activation rules for overlapping skill commands, which were previously used as an alternative, and re-evaluated the value associated with skill commands in light of the Skill Chain system update.
- A skill chain system will be added.
- Unlocked when the character undergoes 2nd Awakening.
- Side story characters cannot be used.
- Cannot be used in the Duel Arena.
- It is available via the chain icon at the top of the skill window.
- In the 'Skill Acquisition' tab, you can only select skills acquired at Lv 1 or higher.
- Awakening skills and some other skills are not included in the target skill list, so they cannot be selected.
- You can assign up to 4 character skills to a skill chain and use them with a single skill slot shortcut.
- Uses castable skills among those registered in the chain slot in sequence.
- For skills with a re-entry function, move on to the next skill after all re-entry functions are completed.
- If all skills are on cooldown, display the skill that returns the fastest.
- If the cooldown of the skill placed as a priority resets while a lower-priority skill is being displayed, it will be replaced by the priority skill after a certain period of time.
- The time it takes to switch to the priority skill can be adjusted directly (0~5 seconds)
- If set to 0 seconds, the skill will switch to the skill assigned as priority as soon as the skill cooldown is over.
- When set to 0 seconds, stackable skills and skills without a cooldown are used repeatedly.
- Skill chain registration can only be set in town and training room.
Skill Command System Change
- Change rules when setting duplicate commands:
- If duplicate commands are set, only the skill with the longest basic skill cooldown will be activated.
- If the basic skill cooldowns are the same, the skill with the higher acquisition level will be activated.
- Removed MP consumption/cooldown reduction features when using commands
- The feature that reduces MP consumption and cooldown when using skills via command is removed.
- Awakening skill cooldown adjustment
- The basic skill cooldowns for the 1st Awakening, 2nd Awakening, and Neo Awakening will be changed.
- As the basic skill cooldowns for the 1st Awakening, 2nd Awakening, and Neo Awakening are changed, the MP consumption is adjusted.
- Enchantress: Forest of Dolls
- The cooldown reduction amount when extending the duration of the Marionette/Finale skills has been changed. (35 seconds → 50 seconds)
- The cooldown reduction effect when extending the duration of the Marionette/Finale skill will no longer apply in single-player mode.
- Change Character Skill Command: The basic command of a skill that overlaps with another skill is changed.
Character Changes
- Improvements to basic character controls:
- Dev's Note:
- First, considering that basic attacks are predominantly performed while stationary, we have changed the default behavior, triggered without any directional input, to a stationary attack.
- However, for Adventurers who prefer the previous forward-moving attack, the skill will still function exactly as before when the "Forward" directional key is pressed.
- We have also implemented an improvement that allows the dash action to be initiated in the up and down directions.
- Both of these changes were designed to enable flexible gameplay across a wider range of situations without compromising the familiar control feel that Adventurers are accustomed to.
- Basic Attack Change:
- The character's basic attack will no longer move forward.
- The ability to move forward and attack when pressing the forward arrow key is retained.
- Added dash control method: The character can now initiate a dash in the up and down directions.
- Evasion rate diminishing scale system:
- Dev's Note:
- While evasion rate is a highly valuable stat in general situations, dungeon buffs that limit its effectiveness have been applied in high-level content precisely for that reason.
- To maintain tense gameplay while ensuring the character's evasion stat retains meaningful value, we have introduced a system of diminishing returns where a successful evasion affects the evasion rate for a certain period afterward.
- An evasion rate diminishing returns system will be added.
 |
| When evasion fails |
 |
| When evasion is successful |
 |
| When the evasion rate naturally recovers |
- Upon successful evasion, your current evasion rate temporarily decreases.
- Even in a diminishing returns state, evasion may occur due to the evasion rate held; in this case, the diminishing returns time is updated and the decreasing evasion rate increases.
- Reduced evasion rate is restored when HP (shield) is deducted due to being hit or after a certain amount of time has passed.
- All evasion rates are restored regardless of the reduced evasion rate.
- If restored after a certain amount of time, a special damage font will be displayed.
- The evasion rate limit dungeon buff applied to some content will be removed.
- Goddess of Beauty Venus Legion, Raid of Delezie of the Black Plague, World Boss
- The 'Enemy Hit Rate Reduction' function among character skills will be changed.
- It changes to a function that increases your evasion rate.
- It does not change when applying a Dark status or higher.
- The notation for some options with applicable numerical limits is improved.
- In My Info, hovering over an option will now allow you to view the sum of your current option values regardless of the applied value limit.
- Target Options: Attack Speed, Movement Speed, Casting Speed, Physical Damage Reduction, Magical Damage Reduction, Evasion Rate
