Greetings Adventurers,

[Ended Events]

Golden Drop

[Reward Distribution]

[Event] Blessing of Kamasylve (7 Days) has been handed out to all adventurers who participated in Shadow Arena before the pre-season.

[Content]

Injury system has been added.

Black Spirit's Rage can now be used to inflict Injury on enemies, which will prevent them from recovering HP as efficiently. The severity of the injury inflicted is affected by the amount of Black Spirit's Rage and the skill damage. Those injured with such Black Spirit's Rage skills will temporarily have their max HP decreased. All classes will recover from their Injury every 5 sec, by 10 HP. Continuous damage and extra HP/MP damage will not cause additional Injury. If your character dies, it will no longer be Injured when it revives. An Injured character will not recover when disconnected. An Injured character starts recovering after it is selected in the Character Selection screen. The following chart show how much Injury is inflicted per Black Spirit's Rage consumed.



Black Spirit's Rage consumed (%) Injury (% of Damage that was Inflicted) 100 50 200 100

E.g. A Warrior consumes Black Spirit’s Rage 100% by using the skill Spinning Slash to attack a Berserker with 5,000 max HP. The Warrior will thus inflict a damage of -2,000 HP on the Berserker. The Berserker will then have an Injury of 1,000 HP, or 50% of the damage that was inflicted. The Berserker can then only recover from its HP of 3,000 up to 4,000 HP, until its Injury is healed (at a rate of 10 HP per 5 sec).

“Devour” function has been added. You can use the “Devour” system to convert enhanced weapon or defense gear into Enhancement Chance. You can access Devour from the Enhancement window by talking to Black Spirit. Weapons must be enhancement level +8 or up, and defense gear must be +6 or up.



Weapon Enhancement Level Enhancement Chance Gain +8 +4 +9 +5 +10 +6 +11 +8 +12 +10 +13 +12 +14 +14 +15 +16 PRI +20 DUO +26 TRI +33 TET +45 PEN +75

Defense Gear Enhancement Level Enhancement Chance Gain +6 +3 +7 +4 +8 +5 +9 +6 +10 +7 +11 +8 +12 +10 +13 +12 +14 +14 +15 +16 PRI +20 DUO +25 TRI +30 TET +40 PEN +70

Using Devour will consume the item. Your enhancement chance (excluding Valks’ enhancement chance) must be zero when using Devour.

Privacy Mode has been added. Privacy Mode allows you to hide your online presence from other Adventurers. You can enter the game in Privacy Mode by selecting Privacy Mode in the character selection screen. Some features such as Guild/Friend invitations and whisper will be restricted while in Privacy Mode. System messages will continue to appear when you kill or get killed by other Adventurers while in PvP mode even when you are in Privacy Mode. The system message which is sent out to everyone due to obtaining certain items, ranking display will appear to other Adventurers even while playing in Privacy Mode. When you are playing in Privacy Mode, you will see an icon showing that you are in Privacy Mode, and you will see a message which says that “You are appearing offline.” Messages which appear to other Adventurers such as when you successfully enhance items will display your message as coming from an “Unknown Adventurer” to other Adventurers.

Your character can now use either a Practice Matchlock (which can be rented with Contribution Points) or a Hunting Matchlock to kill seagulls.

Bosses summoned with a summon scroll by someone else, as well as other adventurers who summon them, will no longer show up on the minimap while the boss is around.

[System]

The order of the tabs within the Guild window will now reset when disbanding a Guild Alliance.

The Apprentice system has been added to Guilds. After joining a Guild, an adventurer will be an “Apprentice” for the first two weeks. Like regular Guild members, Guild apprentices can participate in Node/Conquest Wars and Guild missions. They can collect Daily Pay, receive Allowance, and benefit from Guild skills. Unlike regular Guild members, they cannot receive Guild Bonus and cannot be promoted to Guild Officer or Quartermaster. The day after the two weeks have passed, the apprentice will automatically be promoted to a general guild member.

Guild Bonus will now only be given out if a Guild has at least 30 members including general members, Quartermasters, Guild Officers, and Guild Masters but excluding Guild apprentices.

It has been changed that you will now recover 600 HP over 30 sec after killing an adventurer.

Musa and Kunoichi can now be possessed in Shadow Arena.

For block effect skills (Forward Guard, Super Armor, Invincibility): a red ‘shield’ icon.
