During the Barrier/Bastion Puzzle,

A timer to show when the next Barrier Spirits will be summoned has been added as a visual gauge above the Bastion enemy.

[Letter from Allanon] Developer's Notes

Vindictus - vindi*****

Hello, this is DEV Allanon.

I’d like to introduce everyone with the Developer’s Notes for May.

[Battles]

A New Raid will be added along with the Main Story.

Sreng, the Adversary of all, Earth Legion Commander of the Eweca Forces appears as the boss monster blocking your path.

He harbors a deep affection for Blood Legion Commander Bres, the Blood Mistress, intensifying his resentment towards your party.

However, he’s not the foolish kind to neglect his duties of legion commander for revenge.

A dreadful battle awaits, with Sreng willing to risk his life to fulfill his mission.

We’re also preparing a total of 6 Royal Army Raid Battles:

[Gates of Hell], [The Dark, Dank Sewers], [The Giant], [Into the Abyss], [Burning Temple], [The Evil One].

Every day, two different battles from the list will be chosen in rotation.

Each battle requires Lv.115 to depart, and Minimum stat adjustments will no longer be available.

Departure methods remain the same as before and you will be able to earn a new item that allows processing of Mysterious / Abyssal Shards, plus a newly added Mysterious Glass Bottle (Lv.60).

The new Mysterious Glass Bottle (Lv.60) will not drop: Godly Iron Ore, Heavenly Leather, Heavenly Cloth, and Paradise Orb.

We’re also preparing 9 Special Dungeons:

(Special)[Avatar of Destruction], [Memory of the Past], [Remembrance], [Garden of Tears], [The Price of Failure], [Brilliant Lugh], [Fate and Destiny], [God of Death], [Dungeon Laboratory]

Every week, three different battles from the list will be chosen in rotation, and each battle requires Lv.115 to depart.

From the new Special Dungeons, you can earn Special Dungeon: Enchant Pouches.

We do not have any plans for any new enchantments for now, but we are looking into adding them when new accessories or items are added.

Meanwhile, the rewards for the [Dusk on Crescent Moon Island] have been renewed, and we’ve also reallocated rewards so that you can play existing raid battles depending on what item you wish to obtain.

With the maximum level expansion, [Battle of Rocheste], [Clan of Darkness], [Spearhead of Paradise Lost], [Under the Pale Moon], [Ladaton Bridge], [Royal Castle Dungeon] will be adjusted to normal battles.

Also, Waking Stones (Rank A) that were originally dropped from Royal Army Total War will now be added to the Redeemers rewards box obtained after the patch.

[Expertise]

A new Expertise rank, ‘Artisan’ will be added as a maximum level Expertise rank. This can be earned only after completing the story quest, ‘Advanced Expertise Artisan.’

If you obtain the Artisan rank for Expertise, you can craft or advance(Name TBD) Lv.120 items and can also receive crafting requests.

A crafting request requires the requester to prepare all the materials, and the Artisan can proceed using a stall placed in town.

You can only have one Artisan rank Expertise per character, but other characters’ Expertise can be shared.

Shared Expertise of the sort can still craft items, but it won’t let you place stalls or receive requests.

You can also Transfer your Expertise.

You can only transfer Expertise below 399, before you earn the title of Artisan. When you transfer your Expertise, all the titles you own related to it moves along with it.

We considered transferring only the expertise proficiency while retaining the titles.

However, we're concerned that the transferred character won't be able to acquire titles and that using the transfer system would become mandatory for title retention, leading to a complex situation. Therefore, we've decided to proceed in this manner.

Some Artisan rank Expertise will allow crafting avatar from previous equipment, and the necessary materials can be earned from Niflheim and Special Dungeons.

[Crafting or advancing Lv.120 items]

As said earlier, you will be able to craft Lv.120 items through Artisan rank Expertise.

A +15 Orna equipment with all stats except the ATT surplus tuned will be used as crafting material, and the crafted item’s exchangeability will follow the material item’s exchange type.

Also, if you use an extraction rune during crafting, you can also create an item that copies the exact same enchantments from the material item.

These crafted items start from Normal, and you can advance(Name TBD) them through Beginner – Fine – Superior – Rare – Legendary.

To utilize advancements(Name TBD), you need an item called Advance Stone(Name TBD). You can craft them if you have Artisan rank Expertise.

To craft, you need Essence: Fragments and Inherited Power: Fragements, along with Goibhniu’s Stone, Goibhniu’s Stone+, Superior Enhancement Elixir, etc.

With this crafted Advance Stone(Name TBD) and some special materials, Jardin Steels, Premium Runes, Premium Runes+, Premium Armor Enhancement Runes, etc. As materials, you can advance (Name TBD) your item.

[Core Boost]

The Core Boost system will be divided into two groups: Raid Battles and others, with the other group including Special Dungeons, Niflheim, Royal Army and Abyssal Arena.

Core Boost effects apply to 10 Raid Battles and 6 other battles daily, and you can apply Core Boost effects to the desired battle.

It can be used on a character basis, and when exceeding the number of battles, Core Boost effects will no longer apply.

When Core Boost effects are applied, you can obtain Core Boost-exclusive items and have a double chance of obtaining major reward.

Previously, the Core Boost system was planned to provide more rewards and gold, but to ensure a smoother gameplay experience, it has been changed to double the chance of obtaining major rewards only.

With the application of the Core Boost system, changes in the pattern of playing Battle Circuit are expected, and the groups for Battle Circuit will be further subdivided accordingly.

Please note that Core Boost effects are not applied in Solo Mode.

[Others]

Daily, Weekly, Monthly missions will be renewed.

Especially the daily and weekly missions, which originally simply repeated the same missions, will now grant different missions regarding your character’s raid clear status.

Also, we’ve managed to remove some missions that were unfair, and adjusted the rewards so that they’re more worthwhile.

Sub Character Boosts and the Mercenary Blessing will now be expanded to Lv.115 as well.

There’re still many minor changes, such as Eweca’s Blessing expanded to Lv.104, that I can’t mention in the Developer Notes. Please keep an eye out for the details in the coming updates.

We will keep striving in both development and communication.

Thank you.
