Patch Notes - July 5, 2026
Eva's Bounty
-
Tier 1 & 2 Bosses Are Now Solo Hunts. Tier 1 and Tier 2 bounty bosses now spawn in dedicated solo hunt zones. Entering with a party removes you from it, and party invites cannot be sent or accepted inside these zones. Tier 3 and above remain group content.
-
Individual Loot Overhauled (All Tiers). Every participating player now receives a guaranteed reward bundle on each boss kill, including L-Coins and a Daily Enchant Scroll Pack, with amounts that grow with boss tier. On top of that, all tiers roll tier-scaled chances for spellbooks, dolls, agathion coupons, and reward packs.
-
Adena Rewards Increased. Base Adena payouts now range from 1,000,000 (Tier 1) to 5,000,000 (Tier 5 Beleth), scaled by your participation in the fight.
-
Rare Accessory Coupons Added. Rare Accessory Coupons now drop from Tier 4 and Tier 5 bounty bosses, alongside a chance at Scroll: Enchant Rare Accessories. Exchange rates: Queen Ant's Ring and Core's Ring 1 coupon, Orfen's Earring 2, Zaken's Earring 3, Baium's Ring 4, Frintezza's Necklace 4.
-
Boss Crystal Drops Expanded. The Tier 2 Priest bosses now have a chance to drop their matching Boss Crystal, and Boss Crystal chances on Tier 4 bosses have been increased.
-
Lilith and Anakim Token Rewards Increased. Lilith and Anakim now award 60 Eva's Blessing Crystals per kill, up from 23, bringing them in line with the rest of Tier 3.
-
Bounty Teleport Changes. The bounty teleport cooldown is now 30 seconds (up from 15), and you can no longer teleport to a boss whose zone you are already standing in. The Share Location teleport cooldown is also 30 seconds.
-
Bosses Fight Across Their Whole Zone. Bounty bosses no longer reset when kited within their hunting zone. They only reset if pulled outside the zone itself.
-
Bounty Level Bonus Adjusted. The Bounty Level bonus now improves your drop chances only. It no longer increases the quantity of items dropped.
-
Boss Transformation Fix. Your participation and rewards no longer reset when a boss transforms mid-fight.
Items
- Daily Enchant Scroll Pack Reworked. The pack now grants exactly one scroll per open (a bug could previously grant two). The reward table has been upgraded: D-grade, C-grade, and B-Armor scrolls are removed, with the pool now focused on B-Weapon, A-grade, and Improved/Cursed A-grade enchant scrolls.
PvP
-
Crowd Control Immunity Extended. Being hit by hard crowd control (stun, fear, and similar) in PvP now grants 5 seconds of immunity against further hard CC, and any stacked hard CC on you is cleared when it triggers. Olympiad is not affected.
-
Clan War Kill Feed Fixed. Repeat kills of the same target now always appear in the war kill log for both clans. As before, repeat kills within the cooldown window do not advance war score or kill streaks.
Hunting Zones
-
Primeval Isle EXP Boost Reworked. The zone EXP boost now scales by level: +25% at levels 85-86, +50% at levels 87-88, and it ends at level 89. The boost updates immediately when you level up inside the zone. Monster respawns in the zone are now slightly slower.
-
Whispering Woods Respawns Adjusted. Monster respawn times in Whispering Woods have been doubled.
Performance & Fixes
-
Large Raid Performance Overhaul. A major optimization has gone live for massive boss fights, greatly reducing network load and addressing the mass disconnects some players experienced during huge raids. During very crowded fights, players outside your party or command channel may be hidden around the boss. This is intentional.
-
Party Invite Fix. Declining or failing a party invite no longer leaves the inviter stuck in an invisible one-person party.
-
Mail Notification Fix. System mail no longer plays its arrival animation twice.
Vulkan Renderer
-
Effects Now Run Much Lighter. Ambient Occlusion and Reflections were rebuilt to run up to 4x lighter with no visible quality loss. If you turned effects off before because of the FPS hit, turn them back on and try again. The full suite now costs a fraction of what it used to.
-
Bloom Added. A new Bloom effect adds a soft glow around bright lights and highlights, giving the world more depth at night and around fire, magic, and lamps. Toggle it any time from the gear menu in the launcher.
-
Frame Generation Fixed. Fixed the ghosting that could appear around UI elements during fast camera movement, and resolved the random graphical corruption that could hit setups running multiple monitors at different refresh rates. Frame Generation is now smooth and stable, even during heavy action.
-
Fullscreen Freeze Fixed. Switching between fullscreen and windowed mode no longer freezes the game.
-
Lower Background GPU Usage. When the game is minimized or alt-tabbed, it now drops to a light idle state and frees up your GPU, so extra windows and background apps stay responsive.
Note: The Vulkan renderer needs a modern dedicated graphics card. On older GPUs (AMD RX 500 series and earlier) it may fail to start. If that happens, turn the Vulkan renderer off in the launcher.
Patch Notes - June 30, 2026
Skills & Combat
-
Hellfire Now Lands in PvP. Death Knight's Hellfire (Human, Elf, and Dark Elf) now reliably deals its damage and applies its defense-reduction debuff to enemy players. It was frequently being resisted in PvP before. Elf and Dark Elf Death Knights also now see the correct debuff icon on their targets.
-
Hammer Rumble Restored (Maestro). Hammer Rumble now plays its full casting animation and hammer effect instead of triggering instantly with no visual.
-
Blacksmith's Attack Fixed (Maestro). Blacksmith's Attack is now a single-target strike as intended (it was hitting several enemies at once) and can now land critical hits.
-
Mystic Muse PvP Damage Increased. Mystic Muse's magic damage in PvP has been increased. We will keep an eye on it and validate the change over the coming days.
World Trade
- False Claim Alert Fixed. The World Trade claim alert no longer appears on login when you have nothing to collect. It now shows only when you actually have items or Adena waiting in the Settle tab.
Crafting
- Zaken's Earring Craft Added. A craft recipe for Zaken's Earring is now available in Special Craft.
Appearance
- Emerald Weapon Skin Unlocks to Your Ornaments Collection. The Light Weapon Processing Stone now unlocks the Emerald weapon style in your Ornaments Collection, account-wide and permanent, instead of applying the skin onto a single weapon where it could be lost. Players who used the stone before this change and lost the skin have had the matching Emerald style added back to their Ornaments Collection.
Monthly Rewards (July)
-
Hunt Pass Refreshed. The Hunt Pass has reset for July with a new reward track. The finale rewards are a Brooch Lv. 5 on the free track and an Agathion Bracelet Lv. 5 on the premium track.
-
Attendance Refreshed. A new July attendance track is live, with Scroll: Enchant Rare Accessories as the Day 28 reward.
-
Mission Pass Refreshed. The monthly Mission Pass has reset for July, handing out Selected Jewel Coupons along the track and an Enchant Kit: Heavenly Talisman as the special reward.
-
Eva's Pass Refreshed. Eva's Pass returns for July. Its coin exchange now features Orfen's Earring and Zaken's Earring as new headline rewards, alongside returning gear.
Patch Notes - June 29, 2026
Honor Grounds
-
Per-Role Leaderboards. Honor Grounds rankings are now split into four separate boards: DPS, Healer, Tank, and Support. Your matches count toward the board for the class role you played, so tanks, healers, and supports now compete for rankings among their own kind instead of against damage dealers. Dwarf classes count as Support. Switch between boards using the new tabs in the ranking window.
-
Per-Role Weekly Rewards. Each of the four boards now pays out its own weekly Giran Seals (500 for 1st, 375 for 2nd, 250 for 3rd, 125 for ranks 4 through 10) and its own first-place Prestige Dragon Cloak. If you place on more than one board, you receive only your single best reward, and the freed spots slide up to the next player.
Eva's Bounty
-
Independent Honor Mark Earning. Eva's Bounty now awards Honor Marks on its own weekly cap of 150, completely separate from the 250 weekly cap earned in Honor Grounds. The two pools do not overlap: marks earned in Honor Grounds count only toward the Honor Grounds cap, and marks earned from bosses count only toward the Eva's Bounty cap, so neither one can be used to fill the other. Reaching your cap in one no longer stops you from earning in the other, so you can max both each week. Your current totals for both pools are shown on Eva's Hall.
-
Pet Corpses Cleaned Up. Dead pets no longer pile up in bounty boss areas.
-
Phase-Change Protection. Solo players are no longer briefly left open to attack while a bounty boss changes phase or transforms.
-
Autohunt in Boss Areas. Autohunt combat works again for parties and command channels during bounty boss fights. Only healing skills are blocked while in Eva's Bounty boss zones: even healers can keep autohunting with their attack skills, and just their healing is suppressed.
PvP
-
Anti-Chain Crowd Control. Being locked down by nonstop crowd control (knocked down, then rooted, then stunned, and so on) from multiple enemies is no longer possible. When a player's crowd control wears off you, you gain a brief window of immunity that also clears any other crowd control still on you, so you can move again. This only covers movement and control effects (stun, root, sleep, paralyze, fear, knockdown, and the like). Damage-over-time, defense reductions, and other debuffs are unaffected and still land normally. The first crowd control still lands in full. This only stops the endless chaining, applies to PvP only, and does not affect Olympiad.
-
Gloves of Silence No Longer Perma-Lock. Several attackers wearing Gloves of Silence could previously keep a target silenced without end. Each pair of gloves now has a cooldown between silences, so a target can no longer be locked out of their skills indefinitely.
-
Stronger Damage Reduction. The damage reduction stat now provides a more noticeable effect in combat.
-
Free PvP Resurrection Reduced. The daily allowance of free full resurrections after being killed by another player has been lowered from 100 to 20.
Chat
- Chat Ban Scope Reduced. Chat bans now only block public and whisper chat. If you have a chat ban, you can still talk in clan, alliance, party, and command channel chat. You cannot share your own location while banned, but you can still take locations shared by others. Blocked messages now tell you how many minutes remain on the ban.
Skills & Combat
- Hellfire Debuff Fixed. Hellfire's defense-reduction debuff now appears and applies correctly on its targets.
World
- Primeval Isle EXP Adjusted. The bonus EXP on Primeval Isle has been adjusted so it no longer competes with normal leveling zones.
Patch Notes - June 26, 2026
Eva's Bounty
-
Boss HP Tuned Again. Following continued feedback that they remained too tanky, Tier 3 and Tier 4 bounty bosses have had their HP reduced further. Other tiers are unchanged.
-
Boss Zone Protection Fixed. Players already standing in a bounty boss area when the boss appears now correctly receive zone protection, the same as players who walk in.
Honor Grounds
-
Weekly Ranking Rewards. Top Honor Grounds players now earn Giran Seals every week, delivered by mail each Monday (500 for 1st, 375 for 2nd, 250 for 3rd, and 125 for ranks 4 through 10).
-
Healer MVP Bonus. Healers who do the most healing for their team during a match now earn the same bonus as the top killer, along with a celebration message.
-
Last Week's Standings. A new toggle in the ranking window shows last week's final standings and rewards, so you can see how things changed.
-
Adena Rewards. Honor Grounds matches now award Adena in addition to Honor Marks.
Cosmetics
-
New Eva's Mirror Category: Prestige Skins. A new Prestige Skins category has been added to Eva's Mirror. It holds limited-time skins awarded from events, which appear automatically and expire when their event period ends.
-
Prestige Dragon Cloak. The first Prestige Skin. The top three Honor Grounds finishers each week earn an exclusive dragon cloak skin. It applies automatically and lasts until the next weekly ranking reset.
-
Armor Appearance Stays Put. The Change Armor toggle skills (used by classes such as Blood Rose, Assassin, Orc Rider, and Death Knight) now keep their chosen appearance through death and through logging out and back in.
Skills & Combat
-
Goring Charge Fixed (Sylph). Goring Charge now correctly knocks targets down instead of knocking them back, as intended. Its cast range was also corrected so it no longer fails at medium distance.
-
Dragon Strike Range Fixed (Sylph). Fixed Dragon Strike sometimes failing to cast at medium range. Its range now matches the skill description.
Items & Exchanges
- B-grade Armor Coupon Fixed. The Enchanted B-grade Armor Coupon exchange now correctly shows Light and Robe armor in their own tabs. Previously every tab (Heavy, Light, and Robe) only offered Heavy armor.
Augmentation
- Augment Result Window Fixed. Fixed the result window not appearing the first time you augment an item that has no existing augment. The item was always augmented correctly, but now the result is shown.
Quests
- Quest Credit Fix. Fixed a rare issue where quest progress could fail to be credited when many monsters were defeated at the same moment.
Performance
- Divine Templar Frame Rate Fix. Fixed a severe frame rate drop Divine Templars experienced when taking damage in large battles.
Patch Notes - June 24, 2026
Eva's Bounty
-
Tier 4 & 5 Boss HP Reduced. Following community feedback that they were overtuned, Tier 4 and Tier 5 bounty bosses have had their HP lowered. Other tiers are unchanged.
-
Autohunt Disabled in Boss Zones. Autohunt can no longer be enabled for party or Command Channel members inside bounty boss zones. Solo players are unaffected.
Honor Grounds
-
Respawn Crowd Control Protection. After respawning, players now receive a 40-second buff granting immunity to crowd control effects. You can still take damage and be defeated during this time.
-
Headquarters Flag Protected. The team Headquarters flag can no longer be attacked.
Skills & Combat
-
Archer Critical Damage. Reduced archer critical hit damage.
-
Condemnation Fix. Apocalypse can now only be used with the mastered version of Condemnation, as intended.
-
MP Recovery Buff. Fixed the MP Recovery buff not showing recovery numbers. MP was always being restored, but no floating number appeared.
Zones
- Rotating Zone Closures. Players who remain inside a rotating zone (Pagan, Kelbim, Celestial, Ancient Ruins) are now removed when that zone closes for its scheduled rotation. Your remaining time is saved for the next opening.
NPC Exchanges
-
Helmet Exchange Fixed. The Top A-grade helmet exchange at Artisan Black now correctly offers Heavy, Light, and Robe choices for Dark Crystal and Tallum sets.
-
Protection Armor Exchange. Added a new Protection Armor exchange menu at Artisan Black, with both tradable and sealed options.
World Exchange
-
Status Now Visible. Fixed the World Exchange window so trades in progress now show their status instead of appearing to vanish.
-
Trade Hold. All World Exchange trades are now withheld for 2 hours while our system audits them. You can see the remaining hold time directly in the World Exchange window.
-
Repeat Violation Block. In the case of repeat violations, an 8-hour World Trade block will be imposed on the offending accounts.

-
Adena Rewards Increased. Individual adena rewards from bounty bosses have been increased across all tiers.
-
Competitive Bonus Adena. The winning clan now receives bonus adena on top of Honor Marks. The contesting clan receives half the bonus.
-
Larger Battle Zones. Most boss encounter zones have been expanded for more room to fight and maneuver.
-
Faster Teleport. Bounty boss teleport cooldown reduced from 60 seconds to 15 seconds.
-
Party Lock. Players can no longer leave or be kicked from a party while inside a bounty zone. Exit the zone first if you need to leave.
Skills & Combat
-
Crowd Control Cap. All player crowd control effects (stun, root, sleep, paralyze, fear, knockdown, pull, petrify) now have a maximum 50% landing chance. Boss and NPC skills are not affected.
-
Archer PvP Damage. Reduced archer PvP damage to bring it in line with other classes. PvE damage is unchanged.
-
Mystic Muse PvP Damage. Reduced Mystic Muse PvP damage. PvE damage is unchanged.
-
Share Location Cooldown. Reduced from 2 minutes to 15 seconds.
Quality of Life
-
Clan Distribution. Clan leaders can now distribute items to themselves. Fixed member list display.
-
Mail Items. Fixed an issue where players could not cancel or return mail that contained item attachments.
Patch Notes - June 19, 2026
Server Infrastructure
- Server Hardware Upgrade. Eva's Grace received a hardware upgrade with a new network card to address the intermittent disconnect issues some players have been experiencing. You should notice improved connection stability.
Clan Wars
-
Anti-Feed Protection. Killing the same player repeatedly no longer inflates mutual war kill counts. There is now a 15-minute cooldown per victim before they count again.
-
PK Filter. Killing a player who is flagged criminal (has karma) no longer counts toward mutual war triggers. Punishing PKers won't accidentally start a clan war.
-
Mutual War Threshold. Increased from 10 to 20 mutual kills to account for the new anti-feed protections.
-
War Cancellation. Wars can no longer be cancelled early for L-coins. Once a war starts, it runs for the full duration. Cancel cooldown reduced from 12 hours to 6 hours.
-
War Kills in Farming Zones. Clan war kills now count in Devil Island and Xilenos. They still do not count in arenas, colosseum, siege, olympiad, or Eva's Bounty events.
Zones
- Primeval Isle. Doubled the number of monsters across the entire zone. EXP and SP rewards have been increased based on character level.
Eva's Bounty
- Kill Feed. PvP kills inside Eva's Bounty zones now display in a kill log for your command channel. Kills show in blue, deaths in red. Includes killstreak tracking.
Economy
-
Skill Reset Coupon. Now available weekly in the L-Coin Shop for 100 Adena (limit 1 per account per week).
-
Clan Warehouse Distribution. Clan leaders can now distribute specific items from the clan warehouse directly to members via the warehouse NPC. Items are delivered through system mail.
-
Mail Attachments. Fixed an issue where item attachments from events, quests, and shop purchases could not be claimed from mail.
Skills & Combat
-
Elemental Roots (Elemental Master). Reduced root land rate. Was landing too consistently against targets without root resistance.
-
Damage Reduction (Dye Stat). Updated the damage reduction formula to prevent extreme stacking from making characters nearly immune to damage. The stat now works as intended with diminishing returns.
Bug Fixes
-
Pet Cloning. Fixed a timing issue where resummoning a pet too quickly could create ghost duplicates that never despawn. This was the root cause of the reported "clone army" bug.
-
Daily War Kill Reset. Fixed a bug where expired wars were not being properly cleaned up during the daily reset.
Patch Notes - June 18, 2026
Zones
-
Imperial Tomb. Major rebalance. Increased EXP, adena rewards, and mob defenses. Faster respawn timers. Positioned as a top-tier endgame farming zone.
-
Catacomb of Witch. Increased EXP and adena rewards to be competitive with Devil Island night farming.
-
Catacomb Safe Zones. Added peace zones around inside Ziggurat NPCs to prevent spawn camping when teleporting into catacombs.
Hero
- Hero Class Lock. Hero skills and the Glorious Circlet now only work on the class that earned Hero status. Switching to a different class disables Hero benefits until you switch back.
Buffs & Skills
-
Magic Circle (Mystic Muse). Fixed the buff granting zero stats. Now properly grants M.Atk, M.Skill Crit Rate, and M.Skill Crit Damage per level.
-
Winter Slumber (Mystic Muse). Sleep land rate reduced. Was effectively 90% with passives, now 70-84%. Resistances actually matter again.
-
Meteor (Mystic Muse). Increased AoE radius. Added missing CP burn effect per level.
-
Dye Damage Reduction. Fixed flat damage reduction from dyes being applied too early in the formula, making it nearly invisible. Now reduces final damage matching the tooltip value.
Economy
-
Mail Attachments. Item and adena attachments in mail have been disabled. Mail is now text-only. All item trading goes through the World Exchange auction house.
-
Clan Warehouse. Withdrawals from clan warehouse are temporarily disabled. Deposits still work for clan hall upkeep. This is part of ongoing anti-RMT measures.
-
World Exchange. All auction house transactions now go through a settlement hold period before items and adena are released. Normal trades are held for 4 hours, flagged trades up to 24 hours. Once the hold clears, both buyer and seller can claim from the trades tab. Partial purchases are no longer available. Suspicious transactions are automatically cancelled and both sides receive their original items back.
These changes are designed to combat adena farming and RMT. We will be monitoring the new system closely over the coming days. Once the economy stabilizes, we plan to increase adena drop rates globally.
Bug Fixes
-
Pet Clone Bug. Pets that fell too far behind could create ghost duplicates. Now pets cleanly despawn and resummon instead.
-
Pet AoE in Peace Zones. Pet area skills were blocked in peace zones even when targeting monsters outside the zone. Fixed.
-
Prison Respawn. Dying in prison sent players to Giran instead of back to the prison arena. Fixed.
-
Prison Login. Logging out and back in while in prison could place players outside the prison. Now always spawns in the arena.
-
Skill Reset Coupon. Fixed global skills like Potion Mastery incorrectly refunding spellbooks when using a skill reset coupon.
Vulkan Renderer: Post-Processing Update
If you've ever watched your frame rate collapse during a siege or a 200-player boss fight, you know the engine's age shows where it hurts the most. The game was built in an era where 30fps was fine and GPUs were an afterthought.
We built something that's never been done before in Lineage 2: a custom Vulkan post-processing pipeline, from scratch, designed specifically for this game. It's not a reshade preset or a config tweak. It's an entirely new rendering layer that sits between the game engine and your screen, adding visual effects that the original engine was never capable of.
The renderer analyzes every frame in real time, separating 3D geometry from UI elements, so effects only touch the game world while your interface stays pixel-perfect.
And the headline feature: Frame Generation, powered by AMD FSR 3 optical flow. It studies the motion between frames and creates entirely new ones in between, effectively doubling your frame rate. That 30fps siege? Now it's 60.
Visual Effects
Each effect can be toggled individually from the launcher:
- HDR (Adaptive Sharpening + Tone Mapping): Sharper image, richer colors, and smoother gradients
- Ambient Occlusion (SSAO): Adds natural shadows in corners, crevices, and between objects
- Anti-Aliasing (SMAA): Smooths jagged edges on 3D objects while keeping UI text crisp
- Reflections (SSR): Adds subtle reflections on floors and surfaces
- Frame Generation (FSR 3): Doubles your frame rate by generating extra frames between real ones
How to Enable
- Make sure your launcher is up to date (it should auto-update, or download the latest version from the website)
- Toggle Vulkan Renderer ON in the launcher (if you haven't already)
- Click the gear icon next to the toggle to configure individual effects
- All effects are enabled by default
- Changes take effect on next game launch
Recommended Setup
- Works best with a dedicated graphics card (NVIDIA or AMD)
- Onboard/integrated graphics are not recommended for the effects
- If you notice lower performance, open the gear menu and try disabling effects one by one. Frame Generation is the most demanding, so start there
- Older or budget PCs may want to keep the post-processing effects off, or run with just HDR and Anti-Aliasing which are the lightest
Patch Notes - June 15, 2026
Pets & Mounts
-
Pet Follow. Pets and summons that get left behind now teleport to their owner instead of standing idle.
-
Pet Buff Scrolls. Guardian buff scrolls now verify your pet is nearby before consuming the scroll. If your pet is too far away, the scroll is not used. Both scrolls now persist through pet death.
-
Pet Summon Cooldown. Summoning a pet now has a cooldown to prevent rapid resummoning.
-
Mount Skills. Fast Run and Silent Ride now apply instantly. Previously, activating either skill while moving caused a brief rubberbanding stutter.
Honor Grounds
-
AFK Removal. Players who are completely inactive are now removed from the match.
-
Combat Participation. Earning Honor Grounds rewards now requires active combat participation. Being present in the battle area is not enough. You must actively fight to receive end-of-match rewards. Players who avoid combat or stay on the sidelines will not be rewarded.
Buffs & Skills
-
Custom Buff Slots. Eva's Blessing (all ranks), Divine Grace, Lord's Favor, Eva's Swiftness, Eva's Barrier, and all herb buffs no longer count toward your buff slot limit. These buffs now exist outside the cap and will not push off your regular buffs when rebuffing.
-
Mystic Honor. Mystic Honor is a bonus buff that applies to the caster when using Meteor at higher levels. Fixed an issue where it was incorrectly activating from lower-level Meteor usage.
-
Mystic Freeze. Fixed the PvP slow effect from Mystic Freeze not working. Also adjusted the effect area to match the visual indicator.
Items
- Skill Reset Coupon. Now correctly refunds Common Spellbooks when resetting skills that require them.
Bug Fixes
-
Augmentation Window. Fixed an issue where the augmentation confirmation window could freeze after selecting new stats, consuming the stone without applying the augment.
-
Anti-Cheat. Fixed a false positive that could incorrectly kick legitimate players during fast-paced PvP combat.
Patch Notes - June 12, 2026
New: Free PvP Resurrections
-
Free Resurrections for PvP Deaths. Dying to another player in areas where you lose EXP now grants a free 100% resurrection, up to 100 times per day. Once the 100 daily free resurrections are used up, the normal L-Coin resurrection costs apply.
-
Separate Pools. PvP resurrections are tracked separately from your normal daily free resurrections, which stay reserved for monster deaths. The death screen shows the remaining count for the type of death you suffered.
New: Per-Class Skillbars & Dye Preferences
-
Per-Class Skillbars. Each class now keeps its own skillbar. Switching classes automatically switches to that class's bar, and your first switch to a new class starts with a fresh bar. Class progression (1st/2nd/3rd class transfers) carries your bar forward.
-
Per-Class Dye Preferences. Each class remembers its dye stat choices. When you switch classes, your dyes automatically transmute to that class's preferred stat types (same tier, same dyes).
New: Red Libra Top A Armor Exchange
- Armor Exchange. Artisan Black of the Red Libra guild now exchanges Top A-grade armor. Tallum, Nightmare, Dark Crystal and Majestic pieces (both tradable and sealed) can be swapped to any other set or armor type of the same slot for 1,000,000 Adena. Enchantment carries over. Shields and the Majestic Sigil are included.
Eva's Gift & Class System
-
All Classes Count. Every class at level 90 or higher now counts toward Eva's Gift bonus points, including your starting class. Bonus points still cap at 10.
-
Milestone Skills. Eva's Gift milestone skills are now granted and removed consistently: if your class lineup drops below a milestone after a class extraction, the corresponding skill is removed.
-
Class Switch Restrictions. Switching classes is now blocked while trading, running a private store, mounted, transformed, casting, in a duel, or fishing.
Share Location
- Cheaper Location Sharing. You now get 10 free shares and 10 free teleports per day (up from 3), and the price after the free uses is reduced to a maximum of 10 L-Coins (down from 50).
Shop Adjustments
- Skill Reset Coupon. Now costs 50,000,000 Adena and has no weekly purchase limit (was 100 Adena, limited to 1 per week).

Eva's Mirror
-
Mirror Shard (Sealed). A new untradeable variant of Mirror Shards. All skin unlocks and crafting now require Sealed Mirror Shards.

Patch Notes - May 24, 2026
Honor Grounds Improvements
-
Gear-Balanced Teams. Teams are now balanced based on gear score instead of random assignment. Stronger players may end up on a smaller team to even out the overall power level. Teams can differ by at most 2 players.
-
Improved Gear Equalizer. The Blessing of Jaban buff now scales proportionally to each player's gear level. Players near the top get no buff, while undergeared players receive increasingly stronger compensation. Previously, most players received the same buff level regardless of their gear gap.
-
Spawn Protection. After respawning, you are invulnerable for 15 seconds with a visible shield effect. You can move and attack freely during this time. This prevents spawn camping and gives you time to rejoin the fight.

-
Clan Wars Protected. Kills during Honor Grounds no longer count toward the mutual clan war system. One-sided wars will not escalate to mutual wars from event kills.

Party Restrictions. You can no longer receive or send party invites while registered for Honor Grounds. This prevents party-related issues during team formation.
-
Schedule Adjustment. Matches now run every 1 hour 30 minutes (previously every hour) with a 15-minute registration window (previously 10 minutes). This gives more time between matches for dungeons and farming.
-
Registration Timer Fix. Players who log in during an active registration period now see the correct remaining time instead of always showing 10 minutes.
-
Discord Notifications. Death notifications during Honor Grounds are no longer posted to Discord.
Class Balance

Weekly Cap. Honor Mark earnings are capped at 250 per week across your entire account, shared between Eva's Bounty and Honor Grounds. The cap resets every Monday. You will see a message when you are approaching or have reached the cap. Additional rewards such as consumables for players who have reached the cap will be added soon.
-
AFK Protection. Players who spend more than half the match sitting in the spawn zone will not receive rewards. The spawn area is a peace zone, but enemies who enter it are pushed out.
-

-
Honor Shop. A new shop where you can spend your Honor Marks, accessible via the Clan tab. The shop will open next week once the new systems have been tested.
Bug Fixes
-
Aroma of Death (Blood Rose). Skill cooldown now correctly decreases with enchant level. Previously, the unenchanted cooldown was shorter than intended and enchanting made it longer.
-
Inventory Sorting. Your custom inventory order now persists after relogging. New items are added to the end of your inventory instead of jumping to the top. Opening chests and boxes no longer scrambles your item order.
-
Hidden Power (Dye Potential). Daily reset now correctly restores 20 attempts per day. Previously it was resetting to 5.
