• (※ We have heard your complaints about the limitations of current party system and with the addition of the 6 Player PVE mission ‘Blazing Blade of Calamity’, we realized that it could be too difficult for randomly matched players to clear. This is why we decided to increase the current party size to 6. Also, with the addition of the guild system, we hope many guild members play together.)
