    — Added 15-attempt pity to upgrade legendary treasures to tier 1.


    — The Legendary Box has been updated with some new seasonal and EastMall rewards.


    — We are gradually working to reduce RNG from the game in PvE and Hell, ensuring all classes are equally effective and competitive. In this update, we’ve made it so that the 3 classes with hit rate now have exactly the same hit rate when using c70 (1,300) or c80 (1,500) weapons (As long as you have all passive bonuses from books and similar items,). Additionally, all dodge values for Hell bosses and instance mobs have been recalculated. At the same time, we’ve adjusted how resistance reductions work. When an enemy’s resistance drops below 0, only half of the reduction will apply, making other stats more relevant (in PvE, Hell, and PvP). These changes will be closely monitored, and we’ll keep an eye on their impact on the game.

    You can still increase your hit rate further with your SPs or other stats that provide +100 attack or similar bonuses.


    Example: Boss Fernon -30 resistances → -15 resistances.


    Note: Due to these changes the Hellbound Raid and Hellbound instances rankings have been reset.



    — Remove all the PvE hit rate buffs on the singular buffs, the grupals buffs still have them.


    — Partner Skill Ticket (Single) and Partner Skill Ticket (All) have been added to the Soul and Weapon Fortune Wheels.


    — Changes have been made to the Osdraconis Aetheron Raid:

      • Boss damage has increased.
      • A new area damage skill has been added.
      • Now with the scream attack he will apply a percentage hp bleed.
      • With his attacks he will be able to apply another percentage hp bleed.
      • It will probably be necessary to make more adjustments to the Raid in next patches.
    • Raid box rewards have been change:
      • 5-Star Equipment Production Scroll x1
      • Abyss' Soul Piece x1
      • Bone Dragon’s Tooth x1
      • [SSS] Soul Phenomenal Shell (Weapon) x1
      • [SSS] Soul Phenomenal Shell (Armour) x1
      • [SSS] Soul Legendary Shell (Weapon) x1
      • [SSS] Soul Legendary Shell (Armour) x1

      • Artifact’s Soul Core x1
      • Dona River Sand x300
      • Soul Essence x65
