Dear players, here are the patch notes:
1. \ You can now view descriptions of monster skills (usually for bosses or elites), allowing you to determine the damage type.
1. \ Significantly optimized the save system, reducing the time required for saving and loading.
- When a skill is on cooldown, the system directly checks the next skill;
- If special conditions are not met (e.g., summon count, ally HP drop), the next skill is checked directly rather than waiting;
- When resources are insufficient, the system waits until resources are restored before casting (e.g., if mana is too low, the character waits for mana to recover and then casts), then proceeds to check the next skill — rather than skipping — ensuring all skills in the queue can be cast;
3. \ Improved overall combat performance; FPS increased by approximately 10%–20%, with reduced CPU and GPU usage.
4. \ Increased experience gained from field battles.
5. \ Updated recipes to be more balanced and beginner-friendly.
6. \ Updated passive types with enhanced and differentiated effects.
7. \ Melee summons, Guardian Knights, and Paladins now share the same collision weight and will no longer block each other.

Dear players, here are the updates for this version:
1. \ You can now craft herbs into various potions! Learn advanced alchemy through the Leadership Skills.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. \ Reduced the spell attack frequency of dragon bosses and the attack frequency of newly spawned bosses.
2. \ Monsters now gain 1 level every 2 rounds instead of every round. The max level cap remains the highest level among the player's active characters. This slows down monster power scaling for parties larger than 6!
3. \ Changed from 3 days per month to 10 days per month. (Due to stipend frequency — until other income sources are added, the month is set to 10 days for now. It will be adjusted to 30 days per month once more content is added.)
4. \ Increased experience gained from killing monsters.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. Fixed \
- I received reports of abnormal skill damage values (e.g., a level 10 Mountain Giant Dragon dealing 5000+ damage with Fireball in a 6-player configuration). The code has been reviewed — boss skill damage should not exceed the maximum a tank class can absorb in a single hit, and should not be cast too frequently (at least not twice within 5 seconds).
2. Fixed \ - Money was being deducted silently with no log entry.

Dear players, here are the details of this update:
1. \ New types of dungeons and gameplay mechanics have been added! The map has been expanded accordingly!
2. \ New Level 50 equipment drops from the Trial of Champions dungeon. I've first added fixed + random attribute functionality to them! More similar equipment will be released in the future to further improve the equipment system! Equipment below Level 50 drops from regular monsters.
3. \
4. \ The gameplay logic has been completely reworked — changed from encouraging fewer classes to encouraging more classes. The more classes you have, the richer the collectible variety, and the more buffs and battle changes you can bring!
- Reworked 77 collectibles!
- Maximum level changed to 3.
- Magic Essence is no longer used as EXP, but as an in-dungeon resource — collectible skills now consume Magic Essence.
- Each collectible now has its own unique skill mechanic!
- EXP is now earned directly by killing monsters, not exchanged from Magic Essence — because killing monsters should reward experience, and this doesn't conflict with collectible skills consuming Magic Essence.
- Multiple new collectibles added, including Necromancer collectibles.
5. \
6. \ Previously only obtainable from monster drops — now mineable in the new area!
7. \
8. \ Added some new drops in preparation for future new professions.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. \ Comprehensively adjusted monster parameters, defenses, skills, etc., making them more distinctive and challenging. Reduced the overall attack coefficient of Dragon-type bosses and the Slime King. Slightly reduced the skill damage coefficient of the Flame Mage.
2. \ Talent Book drop rate changed to a guaranteed 1 per Boss.
3. \ Fixed the issue of health bars appearing on top of other UI elements.
4. \ Reduced the effectiveness of Life Steal; slightly reduced Mana Regeneration effects.
5. \ Reduced memory usage by approximately 10%.

The faction content originally planned for this update was replaced by the collectible rework. I felt the current positioning and functionality of collectibles wasn't great — it hadn't achieved the intended effect, and the strategic depth was quite low.
The conflict between leveling up collectibles consuming Magic Essence and gaining EXP was something that confused many players early on. Because upgrading led to less EXP gain and progression felt blocked, the overall growth experience was poor.
After receiving a lot of player feedback and participating in community discussions, I decided to separate EXP entirely — you simply earn it by killing monsters in the dungeon, while the original Magic Essence will serve as the resource for activating Collection Item skills.
The next update will bring the Human Kingdom faction and main city! A brand new trading system, equipment dismantling, new professions — you'll be able to join faction wars and fight other races on a larger battlefield! On top of that, I've also prepared some fun surprises. Stay tuned!

After a major overhaul of the starting area, it's finally here! This is also the prerequisite version for the next major update. I've adopted new rendering effects, optimized the game data architecture, improved overall performance, and increased future scalability. Of course, content is still lacking and there's plenty of room for improvement! Thank you so much for your patience and support! I'll keep bringing you more interesting content and gameplay!
Here are the update details:
1. \ Completely overhauled the starting area with the latest rendering effects, added progressively difficulty-scaled monsters to help with leveling. Dungeon locations have been moved to prepare for future content additions.
3. \ More wild monsters added!
4. \ The game will auto-save when you exit a dungeon, preventing item loss due to memory crashes!
5. \ When a version update includes terrain changes, your party will be teleported back to the starting position to avoid getting stuck!
6. \ Overhauled the resource gathering effects and reorganized their layout!
7. \ New guide quest line added!
8. \ Collected items will now appear in the info bar notifications!
9. \ Added footstep sounds for characters (including legless characters who also received movement sound effects)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. \ Reduced overly high spell resistance on some equipment. The spell resistance effect cap is now 90%.
2. \ Skill resource costs in combat now display correctly. Also improved some text descriptions.
3. \ Increased the combat pace for characters, lowered the priority of basic attacks so characters use skills more frequently (when conditions allow).
4. \ Fixed an issue where tooltips would go out of bounds.
5. \ Better memory utilization, increased recycling rate, reduced peak crash occurrences.
6. \ New information will now appear at the top!
7. \ Improved when the see-through effect triggers. Should feel much smoother now.
8. \ Buffed most monsters and fixed some unreasonable stats (e.g., shield-bearing goblins had the same block value as wolves). Slightly increased dungeon difficulty for 12-player and 24-player parties; 6-player remains unchanged.
9. \ Tome of Talents now drops from bosses.
