The location for using the Moghulis Summon Scroll has changed.

New boss monsters Ronin and Ahib Griffon will now appear from the Dark Rifts at Kamasylvia.
Ronin: Hard difficulty
Ahib Griffon: Very Hard difficulty
Fixed the issue where the hunting monster Phnyl would not come to chase you if attacked from the max distance.

The AP of the monsters from Dark Rifts will decrease much more now every time they weaken by 1 level (every 24 hours).
