Hello Chasers!

We will be having our second maintenance of June.
There will be various new updates with this maintenance, including Karma balance, new event, and other improvements.
For details, please check the link below for the Patch Note.

[June.19th Weekly Maintenance Patch Notes]

Maintenance will happen during the following times:

You will not be able to login or play during this maintenance. Please understand that the duration of the maintenance may be adjusted.

Thank you for your patience.
We will see you in Eltheca.

Attention, Chasers!

The following patch note pertains to contents that will be updated during the (UTC+0) June.19th Weekly Maintenance.
Maintenance will happen during the following times:


(*Above time periods are subject to change. In case of schedule change, we will follow up with another announcement.)

Additional Contents and System Update

1. From this maintenance, you will be able to select the server when you login. Character and account information will not be shared across servers.
   There’s a recommended server based on the country code provided by Steam. Once you login, any future logins will select the last selected server as your default server.
   ※ We have decided on this update because players, often times, do not have a country code from Steam, and/or their actual designated server (region) might not reflect the server they have the best connection. As such, this update will allow you to select your own server that will be “best for your gaming environment”.
   
2. Traditional Chinese, Turkish, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Portuguese are now available.
   
3. You can now select PvE missions from Custom Missions.
   You can select difficulty and up to 3 players can play together.
   
4. Custom Missions will no longer require CP to create.
   
5. 2 new eye shapes per personality has been added (Total 48, 24 each per gender).
   
   
   
6. Now, Ranking Info messages will only be shown when you enter Eltheca.
   
7. Mission Accept window will now show the ping information for the matched (region) server, so you can cancel the mission if the connection to the server is not satisfactory.
   
8. You will no longer be removed from queue if you don’t accept the PvE mission with lower difficulty level than yours.
   
9. Rank Matching Limitations have become stricter for Promotion Matches for official PvP.
   This is to prevent disparity in rank for Promotion Matches. There may be a delay in matching due to this update.
   
10. Certain missions and difficulty levels have been adjusted so more Chasers may challenge for Grand Chase difficulty.
    
11. Practice Probatio rewards will be increased by app. 30%.
    
12. From now on, if your mission (PVP & PVE) contribution is below a set amount, you will no longer receive rewards. This change is for those who AFK intentionally during missions.
    
13. Default Camera Zoon Value in Eltheca and in Missions have been adjusted.
    While Eltheca, the camera zoom will remain the same. However, during missions, your camera will be zoomed out to the max. You will still be able to adjust your camera zoon rate during gameplay.
    
14. Loading Tip will be added for various tips to play the game.

Common, Karma, Mode Balance

1. Resurrection time will be adjusted again.
   Max duration after 6 K.O will still be 10 sec., but the duration for 1~3 K.O will be adjusted to be longer, to match with the duration before.
   
   
2. Default Endurance when you are in the process of capturing the flag will be 0. There will be no difference between different Karma (Stat) or Endurance Buffs (Fortitude), so any attack that decrease endurance will affect the player attempting to capture the flag.
   
3. Default Endurance when you are exhausted (Stamina <0) will also be 0.
   There will be no difference between Karma (Stat) or Endurance Buffs (Fortitude), so any attack that decrease endurance will cause the flag bearer to be easily caught in a combo.
   
4. Max HP recovery after taking damage will decrease.
   This is to encourage active engagement in PvP and discourage passive static play.
   
5. Sword Taliah’s WW+MLB (L-stick push+RB) attack range will decrease by app. 8~9%.
   The attack range has been adjusted so that Sword Taliah’s concept as a close-range Karma with longer reach is still realized, but without the command having the significant advantage of being the most stable, long range breaker command.
   
6. Sword Taliah’s ‘Raging Strike’ Damage will be decreased by 30%.
   We have adjusted the damage, as it was confirmed that Sword Taliah’s ‘Raging Strike’ dealt more damage than other damage-type Rage Skills.
   
7. Dance of Wind ‘Salvo Arrow’ Basic Damage (No Charge) will decrease by 50%.
   However, full charge damage will remain the same, with the damage increase rate when charging also increased. Additionally, full charge duration will decrease from 2 sec. -> 1 sec.
   
8. Jump (in-air) while dashing will no longer recover stamina.

Event

1. ‘[Event] Outstanding Chaser’s Token’ will start.
   
   • 2019-06-19 After Maintenance ~ 2019-07-03 Before Maintenance

Item Shop Update

1. Advanced Supply Box Packages will be sold for limited time only
   
   • 2019-06-19 After Maintenance ~ 2019-07-03 Before Maintenance
     

Bug Fix

1. NPC events that happen after completing missions, will no longer forcibly assign a different channel.
   
2. The issue of Players’ nickname occasionally not showing in spectator mode has been fixed.
   
3. During the rebirth process, changing gender will no longer allow you to create unintended eye shapes.
   
4. CP used for Accepting DLC Reward Procedure (6/4, 6/7) will be compensated.
   
5. Other minor issues related to translations have been fixed.
   
6. Hero NPC Tracking System will now operate properly in Official Probatio. From now on, when you are on Official Probatio, the NPC Tracking system will work properly.

All above changes can change due to development complications and when there is a change, we will notify you on the changes.

Hello Chasers,
This is the KurtzPel Team.

With the launch of KurtzPel in Europe and Asia, we’re now open to players around the world!

It has already been a month since we started Early Access, and we know that our European and Asian players have waited patiently for this day.
Our decision to open KurtzPel in Asia, earlier than scheduled, was a difficult one, but we will do our absolute best to make sure to provide a stable, global service.

Due to our decision to open up to Asia a month earlier than expected, we weren’t able to fully localize KurtzPel for all languages in Asia.
However, localization is very important to us, and we will continue to update the game in more languages as soon as we are able to.
We would like to thank all of the Chasers in Europe and Asia for being so patient, and we hope everyone enjoys their adventures in Eltheca.


To our Chasers in the Americas,
We know that not every design decision we’ve made in launched KurtzPel in Early Access has worked out as we’d hoped.
Things like the Blazing Fist & Diabolic Witch Karma, locking the stat redistribution to Rebirth Ticket, and others. However, as we’ve progressed through this, with your feedback and continued support, KurtzPel has evolved into a much better game.

However, we would like to offer our sincerest apology for the circumstances involved. We sincerely appreciate all you and the contributions and feedback you’ve all provided.


During our 1 month, Early Access service, we have done the following:
We’ve heard you guys and girls loud and clear, and we’ve done our best to listen to the community’s feedback, implemented change (within reason).
And, acted as quickly as we could to bring some awesome changes to the game.

Starting with making the Blazing Fist & Diabolic Witch Karmas Free, Updating the Matchmaking Methods, Allowing Stat Redistribution and Supply Boxes purchasable with in-game currency.

We are also working on creating a friend list system, improving Conquest Mode, adding an Emote System, New Karma, a Guild System, and much more.
As you may well know at this point, we are prepared to hear you out, make changes, and make KurtzPel into the best game that we can.


With the Global launch of KurtzPel, we hope to show you the direction of KurtzPel’s future, and to also truly reveal our design philosophy behind KurtzPel.

We will do our best to never lose this focus, and always strive to make a better game.

Thank you.

Lastly, the planned rewards for players who purchased the Blazing Fist & Diabolic Witch Karma will be delayed for a bit as we are currently discussing the compensation distribution methods with Steam. As soon as we figure this out, we will make sure to reward all players who purchased the Karma DLC with their Silver Wing Knights Costume & Weapons. We will update you as soon as we are able to.
We are very sorry for the delay.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compensation (Silver Wing Knights Set) for players who purchased the DLC (Blazing Fist & Diabolic WItch) before it became free will be distributed as soon as the discussion between Steam is cleared up. We will make sure to let everyone know when the rewards have been distributed.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
