I was born within a void, thus I couldn’t feel anything.

My motionless heart slowly became frozen, and only white ashes piled up around me.

And it was you, Hiver, who shared me her warmth.

For you, I decided to live

And remember the long-forgotten emotions.

I hope, with all my heart,

that your very first moment after the end of winter and heavy snowstorms be me,

just like the moment I felt something for the very first time...

The only thing Goddess bestows upon her beloved Child is an immense power.

and turn that power into a pandemonium.

It was you who decided to come here on your own will, wasn’t it?

Then repay the consequences with your own life.

1-3. Hero Title

[Hero Title]

All titles, except temporary ones and those that disappear due to a specific event, have now become Hero Title.

Some Hero Titles have a retaining effect, increasing the stats of all 95 Lev characters in the server.

This retaining effect of can be applied when at least one character in the server earns the title

and in order to use the character’s existing Cover Title or Stats Title, you need to earn the Hero Title with the relevant character.

Also, you can obtain a Cover Title of a special colour after you have collected a Hero Title and reached a certain level.

※ Hero Title collection and application is shared by all characters in the server.

※ The relevant reward can be applied by clicking the ‘Receive Reward’ button and please be careful whenever you receive a reward.

[Title Collection]

A function that gives you rewards whenever you complete a certain number of collections has been added.

Also, the 50% achievement mail has been deleted and only the 100% achievement mail will be sent to you.

※ Different from the ‘Hero Title Collection’, characters in the server cannot share rewards for this Title Collection.

A category that is distinguished from the Title Collection List has been created, and a special Title Collection will be displayed in ‘Special’ Tab.

[Title and Improvements]

In case you have a Stats Title equipped, you can mouse over on a Title in the Title List or Mission List and compare the two titles.

2. Changes/Additions

2-1. Sources of Lapis added

-With the previous Patch that has activated Accessory and Ancient Enhancements, now you are required to spend more Lapis.

Hence, we have added other sources so that you can get Lapis at [Fission Maze & Maze Core Middle Boss] [Nest Points Store].

•Fission Maze & Maze Core Middle Boss

-From Level 25 onwards, you can get Lapis at a set rate whenever you defeat a Middle Boss.

-The higher the level, the better the chance to get Lapis.

•Nest Points Store - General

-You can use Nest Points to buy Lapis.

2-2. [Hero] [Ally] Adjustments in routes for gaining EXP

-Currently, the main routes for obtaining [Hero] [Ally] EXP are placed around Dungeons and Nests.

We have judged that this phenomenon which requires you to go round Dungeons and Nests to grow a new [Hero] or a new [Ally] was inefficient,

hence made adjustments in routes for gaining EXP.

•[Mercenary] Adjustments in routes for gaining EXP

-From now on, [Hero] can gain EXP through [Mercenary Exploration] only.

-EXP will differ depending on the task level or the time taken to complete the task, but you will be able to get more EXP than before.

•[Ally] Adjustments in routes for gaining EXP

-From now on, [Ally] can gain EXP through [Ally EXP Juice] only.

-You can buy Ally EXP Juice, which allows you to gain much more Ally EXP, at Community Points Store.

2-3. Acquiring points in ghost state

-Now, in case a player in ghost state transfers to the next Dungeon while party playing in ‘Fission Maze’ or ‘Maze Core’, the points he/she gets will not be added to his/her inventory anymore.

-There was a bug that, when player in ghost state transferred to the next Dungeon, points gained by party member’s pet would be added to his/her inventory.

-Now, points gained while in ghost state will be spent automatically and no longer occupy any space in the player’s inventory.

2-4. Improvements in rare item drop effects

-Now, whenever a rare item is dropped, the light effect colour will change depending on the relevant item’s grade.

-Until now, all rare dropped items were marked with yellow beams of light regardless of their grades.

-In order to allow players to recognize a rare item more intuitively whenever it is dropped, we have added beams of light of a variety of colours.

2-5. Materials for enhancing Ancient Equipment added

-Now, enhancing an Ancient Equipment requires additional Polished Garnet and Quality Life-giving Essence.

2-6. Improvements in showing enhancement messages

- Standards for showing enhancement messages have changed.

- Changes were made so that a world message is sent in case you challenge the modified standards and succeed or the item is destroyed.

- Standards are as follows.

2-7. Improvements in showing Chat Window’s DPS

-When you clear a Dungeon or a Nest, DPS information will be shown to only you through the Chat System message, and you can share your own DPS information with All/Party/Guild.

-In case you clear a Dungeon or a Nest in party status, you can check the information on DPS’s No. 1 as well as the damage contribution of you and that of No. 1.

(in case you are not in party status, there will be no changes)

2-8. Modifications in extra EXP acquisition phrases

-Depending on the number of max level characters you own in an account, the amount of EXP your characters below max level gain will increase.

-You can gain EXP by defeating monsters or clearing Dungeons & Nests. However, we have deleted EXP gained by defeating monsters except for certain Dungeons and relevant phrases have been modified.

-This effect can be applied up to 5 max level characters at maximum. (there will be no effect even if you own more than 5 max level characters)

2-9. Changes in transparent effect (party) default settings

-The default setting of transparent effect (party) shown when you install Dragon Nest for the first time has changed to 7.

In case of a PC that has the game already installed, the transparent effect (party) setting remains unchanged.

the Dungeon repeated missions among Guild repeated missions have changed in the following way.

2-12. Bulletin Board Readjustment Project

※ The Adventurer's League is advancing the [Mission Bulletin Board] Readjustment Project!

※ [Adventurer's Guild Bulletin Board] and [Adventurer's Guild Reward Board] installed in each region will be removed.

※ From now on, please check any new mission from the [Mission Bulletin Board].

(except for Victory Dragon Jem)’s option into an option that you want. However, you cannot choose an option with Final Damage.

2-15. Durability when leaving Dungeons or Nests without clearing

[Durability when leaving Dungeons or Nests without clear]

Even if you leave the Dungeon & the Nest without clearing or shut down the client, the durability of your Equipment will not drop anymore.

However, the loss of durability that you get when your character dies remains the same.

2-16. Changes in Unstuck When Trapped

[Changes in Unstuck When Trapped]

In case you are in party status, the system message [Unstuck When Trapped] won’t be shown to other heroes in the Dungeon anymore.

However, in Colosseum, the system message will still be shown to other heroes.

2-17. Changes in Matador Rose Purchase Conditions

-We have judged that conditions to buy Matador Rose were too high, so it made difficult to heroes for challenge Forest Dragon Nest.

Hence, we have greatly decreased the conditions to buy Matador Rose.

From now on, it will be easier to challenge Light and Normal difficulty of Forest Dragon.

•Changes in Matador Rose Purchase Conditions

-The quantity of Gold and White Flower Seed necessary to buy a Matador Rose has decreased.

2-18. Others

3. Balance

3-1. May Skill Balancing Changes PVE

<Chaos Mage>

Despite being the very first Awakened Class, Chaos Mage still had meaningless skill effects left unattended. Hence we have prioritized its balancing adjustments.

Though DPS adjustments were not significant, it is our goal to improve some of Chaos Mage class’s defects and offer a better gameplay.

Reliance on Force Mirror Removed

-Chaos Mage has been suffering a big loss in SP cost due to the acquisition of the War Mage [Force Mirror].

-Therefore, we have changed the specs for [Force Mirror] and added a debuff effect to [Gravity Blast EX] so that the debuff can be applied naturally during the deal cycle.

-Additionally, we are making preparations for replacing/improving [Force Shield] and [Force Mirror] among the main skills with War Mage. Hence, these preparations will naturally include a general revamp.

Adjustments in Main Skills’ Hit Confirmation

-The issue in which the location where the hit confirmation of a main skill such as Gravity Blast, Triple Orbs, Black Hole, etc. took place varied has been solved.

Control Elements of Gravity Blast Added

-Gravity Rush and Focus Gravity, which are Awakened skills, had an inconvenient structure that used [Ball of Gravity] and their [Cooldown] as their resources.

-Therefore, reducing the two skills’ cooldown while increasing the duration of Ball of Gravity to use Gravity Blast and Triple Orbs, now you can use the Awakened skills at the desired moment.

-Additionally, we have added [Gravity Trap] as an element that can increase the duration of [Ball of Gravity], so that you can use the Awakened skills at more diverse moments.

Improvements in the usability of skills that are recognised as ‘Chaos Mage’ skills while not being commonly used

-Because neither Summon Comet and Meteor Storm’s Attack Power nor their usability could be used in the [Awakened] mechanism, we have classified the two skills as a ‘Meteor’ skill group and increased their usability.

-It is our goal to moderate the gap created during the deal cycle when Fast Forward can’t be used, and increase the Ultimate skill’s frequency of use.

■ Adjustments in Buff Effects PVE

■ Adjustments in Skill’s Damage PVE

Default class skills’ damages have increased in general.

Damages of the following action passive skills from the 1st specialisation skills, which were set too low, have been greatly increased.

The following Class Mastery Effects have changed due to adjustments in Default Class Skill’s Damage.

The damages of 1st and 2nd specialisation skills that were not included above have been adjusted.

-Damages from Low skill level have decreased in general, except for some skills.

However, damages based on the highest skill level (except for increments due to Skill Crests and others) remain the same or have slightly increased.

※ Developer's Comments : We have increased default class skill’s damage and decreased 1st and 2nd specialisation skills’ damage, limited to low level only,

so that during your level-up process, a skill you learn when you complete a specialisation does not become too strong.

However, damages based on the highest skill level (except for increments due to Skill Crests and others) remain the same or have slightly increased.

Based on Level 95 character that uses the highest level of skill, this decrease in skill damage will not have any effect.
