Patch Notes

Hotfix #27

We hope everyone had a happy holiday and a happy new year! We have updated the Goblin Caves and Ruins map as we continue our test with the experimental map rotation system. The new Goblin Caves encompasses a larger cave network accommodating more adventurers per session and houses two bosses. The updated Ruins now have red portals and red staircases that lead down to the Howling Crypts and Inferno.

This hotfix introduces changes to armors so looting higher grade items feels more satisfying. We have also implemented minor class balance changes we will be monitoring to aid us in a more substantial balance update in the near future.

Finally, we are happy to announce that we have received an official rating from the Korean Games rating board (GRAC) which allows us to service the game for players over the age of 19 in Korea. We have now reinstated the Korean language option and have extended our first sales event until January 18 to allow all our new Korean fans to take advantage of the holiday discount. Thank you!
