Guild Crafting system has been revamped.

Now you can access the Guild Crafting window from Guild (G) > Guild Crafting. The details of the revision are as follows: In the Guild Crafting window, select “Select Product” and then the item and quantity you want to produce. After you press “Start Crafting,” a menu will appear where you can input the crafting materials. You can input the required materials from your personal inventory. Please note that you can not retrieve items you have inputted. Once all the materials have been inputted, crafting can begin. Once crafting begins, the expected work time until completion will appear, as well as a button to “Complete Now.” Unfortunately “Complete Now” function is inactive at the moment and this will be fixed next maintenance. The completed product will automatically be stored in your Guild Storage. Instead of using workers, Guild members can now input items from their personal Inventories for Guild Crafting. However, you need to input all of the necessary materials to start crafting. (Therefore, we believe that it would be helpful to gather all the necessary materials before bidding on a Guild House.) The crafting time for each item you can Guild Crafting is set. You can use Guild Funds to use the “Complete Guild Crafting Now” function and finish crafting an item immediately. It will cost 10,000 Silver per second left of the estimated work time to “Complete Now.” You cannot choose multiples of the same item for Guild Crafting. There is a daily limit for each craftable item through Guild Crafting. Each craftable item through Guild Crafting can be crafted one at a time.. The Guild skills, house and materials you would need for Guild Crafting have not changed. The completed product will automatically be stored in your Guild Storage. Guild Activity will not rise for Guild Crafting.

Guild Crafting specs:

Materials for the items that were under Guild Crafting before the changes made with the 6/20 maintenance will be returned to Guild Storage.

When the materials are returned, they may not be correctly stacked if you have the same material in your Guild Storage. In that case, if you transfer the items to your personal inventory and then transfer them back into the Guild Storage, the items should be correctly stacked.

Fixed the issue there ‘Assemble!’ function could not be used at the start of Conquest Wars.

Fixed the intermittent issue where annexes and installments of Node/Conquest Wars would be overlapped together when installed.

Additional damage inflicted from Trina Demolition Axe on castle gates has been removed during Conquest Wars.

<Known Issue>

We are aware that revised Accuracy effects are not implemented properly and the fix is in progress. The revised Accuracy effects are displayed with “Accuracy + n%” in the skill tooltip window.



※ Many of our adventurers have reported that Accuracy is not being implemented properly, including for the Witch and Wizard, and we went through an extensive review in covering all skills of all classes. As a result, we confirmed on this issue and we are working to fix it fast.

Typically for the Witch and Wizard, these two classes utilize many skills that are affected by the revised Accuracy and thus the issue might have been felt stronger.

We sincerely apologize for the extended review process and the inconvenience we have caused.

This known issue is scheduled to be fixed next maintenance. We apologize once again to all of our dear adventurers.

We are aware of the Campsite Shop issue where items offered would appear unpurchasable even when you have enough Silvers in your Inventory. We are currently working on a fix.

We are aware that Guild Crafting’s ‘Complete Now’ button is inactive at the moment. This will be fixed next week’s maintenance.

Hunter’s Seals will not be exchangeable with Thyshelle Arms in Tarif temporarily. Upon right-clicking the Hunter’s Seal item, navigation to Thyshelle Arms will be activated but item exchange will not be possible. This temporary revision will be restored next maintenance.

We are aware of the issue where the quest “Back to Tarif,” from the Five Rings of Illezra quest series, is currently unavailable. This will be fixed in next week’s maintenance.

We are aware of the issue where the materials for crafting [Guild] Galley: Cloud Breeze Sail and [Guild] Capotia Golden Elephant Mask appear to be switched. This will be fixed in next week’s maintenance.
