A Tespia patch has been released, finally giving us the new Nova pirate, Angelic Burster~! Nexon apparently thinks 버스터 has an R sound in it, I’ve changed my past blog posts to remedy “my” mistake. Anyways, along with Angelic Burster comes a new boss, Magnus, and the Helisium dungeon!

When creating an Angelic Burster, you can only be female. You have a choice between two hairstyles and two faces, as well as any hair colour.

Angelic Burster uses her own weapon, the Soul Shooter, as well as a secondary weapon, the Soul Ring. She is a DEX based pirate.

Angelic Burster uses the Soul Recharge system! When you are attacking monsters with your regular attack (which is sort of like a long ranged Ultimate Drive), there’s a chance that you’ll Recharge!

After you have gotten some Recharges, you can use the skills that are shown on the side of your screen in the Soul Recharge UI.

There’s also the Dress Up system. You can use your Coordinate skill in your beginner tab to open this UI, allowing you to place clothes and other things to change how your Angelic Burster transformation looks. I’m not sure what clothes you can put here, maybe it’s only Cash items… or maybe there are special equipment just for this?

After that, you can use the Dress Up skill to transform into Angelic Burster! You can also use it in your transformation state to turn back into Tear (showing your regular equipment, hair, etc).

Although there’s no tutorial in-game, I believe that Angelic Burster uses the power of Escada, a dragon. It’s pretty clear if you read the skill descriptions. I think they have some sort of Soul Contract.

Of course, Angelic Burster is a popular idol. Kaiser is her biggest fan! The girl beside her is Idea, I guess she’ll play a part in Angelic Burster’s storyline.

Here’s Angelic Burster’s cash wardrobe, it’s very… pink?

Her job advancement animation is a pink version of Kaiser’s, haha.

I recorded a video showcasing all of Angelic Buster’s skills, and for some reason, I lagged like crazy…

A new area, Helisium, has been added! Helisium was the capital for the Nova race, but then Magnus took over and it is now known as the Tyrant’s Stronghold. Kaiser, Angelic Burster, and the Maple Alliance have joined forces to attempt to retake Helisium.

You can go to Helisium through a portal in Pantheon. The monsters there are around level 90~120.

A new boss, Magnus, has been added! You can fight him in a party of 1 to 6 people. When fighting Magnus, you will have reduced damage to monsters, your HP recovery potions will be less effective, and your health will periodically be reduced.
