**🗺️ World Map & Radar** • The world map and minimap now use true top-down renders of every region — the surface (including the new coastline), Cursed Caverns, Creator's Gate, and both boss arenas — so your marker sits exactly where you actually are • Party members now appear as green dots on your radar, so you can keep track of your group at a glance **🤝 Party Play** • Kills shared with nearby party members now split their EXP with a grouping bonus — teaming up is rewarded, not penalized • A dangerous new coastline has surfaced east of Goblin Hills, where Lv40 adventurers will find fearsome new foes prowling the tide — Abyssal Sirens, Brinefang Stalkers, and Drowned Revenants **🐲 World Bosses** • A new respawn card sits at the top of the screen counting down to the next world boss — and a toggle in Options ▸ Gameplay lets you hide it for a cleaner HUD **✨ Quality of Life** • The Collection screen has a new "Hide completed" switch so you can focus on what you're still missing • Every shop header now shows your carry weight (current vs max), and the shop keypad now handles Selling too — set a quantity and see the total gold before you confirm • XL Health and Mana potions can now be selected in the Auto-Hunt potion pickers **⚖️ Balance** • Lifesteal gems retuned to a flatter, fairer curve across tiers — runaway high-tier lifesteal has been reined in • The Thorns affix has been removed from all monsters **🔧 Fixes** • Fixed a crash that could occur when changing maps with another player nearby • Hardened Sanctum entry — joining the instant the boss goes live no longer risks a crash • Listing catalogued materials (like Tome Pieces) on the Marketplace no longer wrongly reports "your items are still syncing" while you're actively farming • The crash-report card now always stays fully on-screen and re-pins itself if you change resolution

22d ago

Ranger - Ranger damage has been reduced as part of a class balance pass (this took effect July 4). - New Hunter's Perks: Rangers now carry 20% more weight (Pack Mule) and find gem shards 20% more often (Shard Hunter). Full gems remain as rare as everyone else's. - Combat Power calculation has been adjusted — Ranger CP will recover most of the drop from the balance change at your next login. - All accounts with a Ranger were mailed 2 Respec Scrolls as compensation. If you haven't claimed yours, check your mailbox. Swordsman - New: Shield Block. While a shield is equipped, Swordsmen have a 15% chance to block a landed hit, halving its damage. A BLOCK popup shows when it procs, and your BLK chance appears in the HUD and Character panel. - Blocking has a cost: total Dodge is reduced by 20% while a shield is equipped. - Block contributes to Combat Power. Cleric - Divine Judgment damage reduced from 800% to 700%. - New: Blessed Vitality. Clerics now have +10% max HP and a 25% chance to resist an incoming critical hit (it lands as a normal hit instead). NEW: ONYX GEM - A new socketable gem, the Onyx, now drops from monsters (shards can be combined 3-to-1 as usual). - Onyx is special: it only fits shields and gloves. In a shield it raises your Block chance (up to a 50% cap). In gloves it grants Block Pierce, reducing your target's chance to block you. - Shielded elite monsters now block 15% of landed hits for half damage — bring Block Pierce to cut through them. ITEMS - New XL Health and Mana Potions restore 1,000 HP and 500 MP. Mira and the general goods vendor stock them from level 31, and the potion icons have a fresh look. MARKETPLACE - Void-Husk trophies dropped by the Corrupted monsters (Swordsman, Ranger, Cleric, Assassin) can now be sold on the Marketplace, priced 10–20 Lumina each. - Listings can now be filtered by 5, 6, or 7+ sockets (the filter previously stopped at 4+). - The sale tax no longer charges a minimum 1 Lumina on cheap sales — items sold for under 20 Lumina now keep their full price. PARTY & SOCIAL - Any party member can now invite others — you no longer have to be the party leader to send an invite. - You can copy a player's name from their info card, and player and guild cards now show who's online and where they are. INTERFACE - New Combat Effects toggle in Options ▸ Video lets you switch combat visual effects on or off for smoother performance. - The combat-stats panel can now be dragged wherever you like. - Added a Monsterpedia entry for the Awakened Forgotten One. - All menus and content are now fully translated across all 10 supported languages. FIXES - Fixed monsters from your previous map appearing frozen in Eloria Village (and other zones) after teleporting. - Boss fights no longer freeze or stutter from combat effects reloading on every hit (this mainly affected the Forgotten One and Primordius fights). - The Awakened Forgotten One now respawns exactly when its countdown reaches zero, instead of 0-30 seconds delay - Completing the raid against the Awakened Forgotten One now finishes the Chapter 6 quest "The Forgotten One" for everyone who took part, including party members. - Combining gem shards now keeps your shard bag total correct.

v1.6.21 Patch Notes

✨ New & Quality of Life Choose exactly which monsters your character auto-hunts. A new Automatic Attack panel — opened from the small target badge on the Auto Hunt button — lists the monsters in your current area with a checkbox for each, plus an All Monsters master switch. Tick the species you want to farm and auto-hunt only chases those; All Monsters behaves like the normal Auto Hunt button and the Q hotkey. Your picks are saved per character. New "Visible Monsters" graphics option for smoother performance in crowded areas. Under Options → Gameplay → Visible Monsters (10 / 20 / 30 / Unlimited, default 10), the game now draws only the nearest handful of monsters and quietly pauses the rest until you get close. Packed zones and busy farming spots run much lighter on your GPU. It applies instantly, is remembered on your device, and bosses and mini-bosses are never hidden. Refreshed HUD. The HP/MP/EXP bars got a cleaner, glossier look, and the interface is tuned to sit better on 1080p displays. 💬 Chat & Social Whispers are now durable — your private messages stick around. Direct messages no longer vanish when you log out, and a message sent to a friend who's offline is delivered the next time they log in. Your conversation history is restored automatically on login, and an unread indicator shows when someone messaged you while your chat was closed. Unified chat tabs. Whispers, Party, and Guild are now tidy docked tabs in one chat box, so conversations are easier to follow (loot and system messages stay out of those tabs). Leaderboard redesign with clickable player cards. The leaderboard got a larger, cleaner layout — and you can now click any player's name to see their card: class, level, guild, faction, and Combat Power. ⚔️ Progression & Balance Double EXP from early overworld monsters! The regular monsters across Forest Path, Dark Woods, and Goblin Hills (Levels 1–13) now give 2× their base EXP, so the early climb is noticeably faster. Interior dungeons, bosses, and special monsters are unchanged. Forest Path feels more alive. Its monsters are now mixed and spread naturally across the whole zone instead of sitting in single-species clusters. Party support buffs last much longer. Guardian's Roar (+Defense) and Killing Intent (+Attack Speed / +Damage) now last a full 3 minutes, up from 15 seconds (matching Hunter's Boon) — so supporting your party is far less spammy. Buff skills are also smarter on auto-cast: with auto-skills on, they re-cast only once the buff has actually worn off, instead of on every cooldown. 🛡️ Fairness New characters now start completely fresh. Fixed a rare issue where making a new character on an account that already had a high-level character could carry over leftover data — which in some cases led to a wrongful disconnect. If that happened to you recently, it's resolved. 🐛 Bug Fixes & Polish Smoother Apex (Primordius) party runs — tighter attack telegraphs and more reliable handling when the party leader leaves mid-fight. Various stability, crash-safety, and polish fixes. Thanks for playing, and thank you to everyone who reported issues and shared feedback. See you in Eloria. — Tipreth
