- The Warlord “Diodorus” appears in a new Duel.
Diodorus appeared in the story previously, but now he’s back and considerably stronger. Players who are confident in their skills can try their hand at the challenge of defeating him.
Player
- Added a new faction, “Molzamites.”
Large, powerful warriors who dwell deep underground in caves formed by lava.
Fearing neither death nor fire, many Molzamites earn a living as sellswords for rich merchants. Renowned for their bloodlust and brutality, rumors abound that Molzamite Sentinels nourish themselves with the souls of defeated foes.
- Also added Gideon Coffin Booster Crystals specifically for Molzamite Sentinels.
- They can be attained in exchange for Sentinel Signatures.
Character related
- Increased the maximum number of characters that players can create to four.
- Increased maximum character inventory by one slot.
Added new weapon type “Great Axe.”
Weapons with a wide attack range can be used to take down surrounding enemies. By enhancing themselves, they can increase defense and will not recoil in the face of an enemy onslaught.
Game Balance
Equipment/Enchantments
- Enchantment draw tables have been divided up by weapon type.
How difficult it is to fulfill their conditions may differ even for enchantments of the same type, putting some weapon categories at a disadvantage.
・Weapons at a disadvantage due to performance differences.
・Weapons with enchantments that have a range as a condition.
・Weapons with enchantments that have Consecutive Hit as a condition.
(when the number of hits for the condition is the same, the condition is harder to fulfill for some weapons than others, for example comparing bows to hammers)
For those reasons, we have increased the number of enchantments that have their performance adjusted for each weapon type.
Weapons and armor that already have enchantments applied to them won’t have their performance changed, but changes will be applied to enchantments to equipment acquired from now on.
- Adjusted critical hit chance.
A bug in the way critical hit probability was calculated resulted in some enchantments being too easy to activate, so these probabilities have been adjusted.
In conjunction with these adjustments, the problem with debuffs that affect critical hit chance lowering the probability by too much has also been adjusted.
- Adjusted barrier durability values.
For players, it seems that barriers are almost like a second HP pool. However, their effectiveness was too high when compared to enchantments that boost maximum HP, so their durability has been decreased.
Barrier Lv | Barrier durability(Before change) | Barrier durability(After change) |
---|---|---|

|
1000
|

- “Mul Zibanu”: Power Bow
The HP regen effect had more chances to activate than expected, so there were some situations where the character’s HP essentially wouldn’t go down at all, making the player lose out on the fun and challenge of the game. The activation condition has been adjusted to counter this.
HP is restored upon a critical hit, but the ordinary critical hit chance is low.
However, landing a critical hit raises the critical hit chance, so it’s easy to create a condition where you can chain activate the ability.
- Tyr Cuirass
・Since adjustments to the durability values of barrier effects have made them weaker, additional enchantments have been added to fix balance issues.
・We have decreased the level and durability value of barriers applied at the start of a quest chapter (maximum changed from three to two).
・Because the effect at the start of a quest chapter and the intended role of the effect overlapped, we have changed the effect from barrier upon being downed (before change) to slightly reducing damage allies take until reviving (after change).
・At enhancement levels III/IV, gradual HP regen is applied at the start of a quest chapter.
- Adjustments were made because shield enchantments would sometimes activate at inappropriate times.
Because the effect would activate when guarding with equipment in slots other than the target equipment, fixes have been made so that it only activates after guarding with the target equipment.
Items | Enchantments | Changes |
---|---|---|
Thunderbane Pavise | Guard: Resistance Up (Electro) | “Condition: Guard with this shield” changed to “Condition: Guard X times with this weapon.” |
Valkyrie’s Shield | Guard: Resistance Up (Pyro) | “Condition: Guard with this shield” changed to “Condition: Guard X times with this weapon.” |
Shock-Resistant Targe | Guard: Resistance Up (Electro) | “Condition: Guard with this shield” changed to “Condition: Guard X times with this weapon.” |
Flame-Resistant Targe | Guard: Resistance Up (Pyro) | “Condition: Guard with this shield” changed to “Condition: Guard X times with this weapon.” |
Comment from the director
We originally wanted to avoid these kinds of fixes that are like performance downgrades to equipment. However, in order to preserve the concept that every player should be able to enjoy using a wide variety of different builds, we determined that this would be the best approach to take given the current structure of the game. In particular, to players who enjoy using the affected equipment, and players who paid the cost of accumulating and upgrading them, we offer a sincere apology for only now making these changes. We will continue to listen to players regarding the game’s balance, and strive to create a balance that allows everyone to enjoy the game. Thank you for your continued support.
