Post-Launch Patch Notes - April 8, 2026
Dungeons & Instances
- Transcendence (Level 82 Easy) — The Dragon Soldier was hitting way too hard compared to surrounding floors. Stats have been reduced to scale properly between the level 75 and 85 tiers
- Instance Tickets — Fixed an issue where instance entry tickets could be lost during server restart
Skills & Combat
- Chain Heal — Completely reworked. Now properly heals party members within range of the healer, sorted by lowest HP. Includes pets and summons. Works in auto-hunt
- Balance Life — Now properly triggers during auto-hunt healing rotation
- Salvation — Fixed pets inheriting the resurrection effect from their owner. No more false resurrection prompts when your pet dies
- Maneuver / Clever Maneuver — Fixed these charge skills not activating from maximum range
- Command Channel Loot — Fixed the CC leader receiving drops from regular mobs killed by other CC parties in different zones. CC leader loot now only applies to raid bosses
Auto-Hunt & Party
- Auto-Hunt Assist Mode — Solo players and party leaders in assist mode now automatically switch to range mode so farming doesn't stop. Also triggers on leader change
- Party Invites — Any party member can now invite players, not just the leader. Useful when the leader is AFK and someone disconnects
- Party EXP Range — Reduced to match auto-hunt range, preventing multi-spot farming abuse within the same party
Items & Inventory
- Inventory Safety — Enchanting, crafting, compound, random craft, item restore, mission rewards, and Eva's Cube now require at least 5 free inventory slots to prevent item loss
- Venir's Talisman Fragment — Now untradable and cannot be listed on the world trade
World & Zones
- Geodata — Water Temple — Updated terrain data fixes rush/charge skills clipping through the floor
- Geodata — Cemetery — Fixed blocked paths. Previously inaccessible areas are now walkable
- Orc Fortress — Fixed the peace zone overlapping the siege area. Fort interior is now PvP during siege
- Monster Respawn — Additional fix for mob clustering. Zones now stay evenly populated permanently, even after long uptimes
- Timed Hunting Zones — Fixed an issue where farming time could reset after server restart for some players. Timers now save regularly and are preserved through restarts
Eva's Cube
- Progress Restored — Fixed a bug that could reset your daily cube progress on server restart. All affected players have had their correct day restored based on account history. If your cube was behind, check it now
- Weekly Reset Text — Reset notifications now correctly say Monday instead of Wednesday, in all languages
PvP
- Heal Flagging — Fixed an exploit where healers on monster auto-hunt could heal flagged players without becoming flagged themselves
Post-Launch Patch Notes - April 7, 2026
Dungeons & Instances
- Dream Dungeons — Fixed a rare issue where killing multiple monsters at the same time (AoE) could cause the door to the next stage to never open
- Dwelling of Spirits — Fixed an error that could occur when the dungeon closes while monsters are still being killed
- Water Temple — New party event added! Talk to the NPC in Giran or Aden to enter
- Training Zone Boss — Fixed an issue where the training zone boss could sometimes fail to spawn. Added automatic retry if the spawn fails
Combat & Balance

- Scroll Cooldowns — EXP Boost Scrolls and Einhasad's now have proper 1-minute cooldowns matching their tooltips, preventing accidental multiple uses
World & Zones
- Monster Respawn Distribution — Monsters now respawn spread across the entire zone instead of gradually clustering together over time. Zones will stay evenly populated no matter how long the server has been running
- Geodata Improvements — Updated terrain data for several zones including Dwelling of Spirits, Draconid Fortress, Garden of Eva, Elven Forest, and Blazing Swamp. Movement and pathing should be smoother in these areas
Stability
- Sell to Merchant — Fixed an error when trying to sell items to a merchant that has just despawned
- Purge Rankings — Fixed a periodic error in the ranking system that could occur when players log off during rank calculation
- Various Fixes — Fixed several rare server errors related to monster deaths, magic damage calculation on pets, and dungeon instance cleanup

Post-Launch Patch Notes - April 6, 2026
Performance
- Server Performance — Significant optimizations for large-scale events like boss fights, sieges, and crowded areas. Should be noticeably smoother
- Daily Reset — The 6:30 AM daily reset is now faster and more stable
Bug Fixes
Auto-Hunt
- Auto-Hunt Skill Rotation — Fixed an issue where replacing a skill in your shortcut bar during auto-hunt could break the rotation, causing certain skill slots to stop being used
- Auto-Hunt Slot Order — Fixed a long-standing issue where removing and re-adding skills to shortcut slots could permanently disrupt the auto-hunt rotation order until relog
- Auto-Hunt PvP Protection — Fixed multiple exploits that allowed players to force autofarmers into unwanted PvP. Autofarming in Monster mode now properly protects you from being flagged
Dungeons & Instances
- Eva's Cube — Daily progress no longer resets if the server restarts before you log out
- Cruma Tower Devices — Fixed an issue where capturing one device could interfere with the buff timers of other devices throughout the zone
- Transcendence — Fixed a bug where monsters could stop spawning after a wave was killed
Combat
- Backstab — The lower level backstab skill was missing its minimum distance requirement to use. Now consistent with all other backstab variants
- Command Channel Kill Credit — Mission and quest kill credit now correctly goes to the player who actually killed the monster, instead of always going to the Command Channel leader
Quality of Life
- Party Invite Spam — Added a 30-second cooldown on party and command channel invite announcements to prevent chat spam
Stability
- Various Errors — Fixed several rare errors related to craft extraction, command channel party info, pet re-summoning, and auto-hunt target selection
Post-Launch Patch Notes - April 5, 2026
Performance & Stability
- Orc Fortress Siege — Major performance overhaul. Siege events should no longer cause server-wide lag, disconnects, or lingering performance issues after the siege ends
- Server Optimization — Removed multiple unnecessary background processes that were consuming resources. Overall server load reduced significantly
- NPC Rendering — Optimized how the server tracks nearby objects for each player, reducing unnecessary processing
- Auto-Hunt Circle Display — Fixed an issue where the farming zone circle indicator could accumulate ghost overlays during long auto-hunt sessions, causing gradual FPS degradation over time. The circle now draws cleanly without stacking
- Floating Combat Numbers — Heal and mana recovery floating numbers are now only visible to you and your party members, instead of being broadcast to all nearby players. This significantly reduces visual clutter and client load in crowded zones
Bug Fixes
Monsters & NPCs
- Monster Flickering — Fixed an issue where monsters would randomly disappear and reappear at a different position while farming. This was most noticeable in areas with high mob density
- Balok Battlefield — Balok boss no longer moves from its spawn position during the encounter. Battleground mobs now respawn much faster (10 seconds instead of 60) so there's always something to fight
Dungeons
- Dwelling of Spirits — Improved portal teleport reliability. Players who experience a rare teleport desync will now be automatically corrected back to the correct room instead of getting stuck in an empty area or clipped out of the map
- Weekly Timed Zones — Fixed an issue where weekly zone timers (Forgotten Garden, Aztacan, etc.) could lose their remaining time during the daily server reset. Weekly zones now correctly preserve their time until the Monday reset. Time stone additions are also properly preserved across server restarts
Stability
- Clan Arena — Fixed a crash that could occur when claiming supply rewards
- Elemental Spirits — Fixed a rare error that could occur when a summon's owner disconnected during combat
Post-Launch Patch Notes - April 4, 2026
Performance & Stability
- Chat Translation — Optimized for speed and reliability. Translations are now processed asynchronously for faster delivery and smoother chat experience under heavy load
- Eva's Whisper AI — Optimized all AI-powered features (milestone messages, level-up congratulations, check-ins, quest generation) for faster response times and improved reliability
- Eva Quest Delivery — Daily Eva quest generation is now significantly faster. Quests are generated for multiple players simultaneously
Bug Fixes
Mission Credit
- Training Mission — Fixed an issue where players in a party with a pet summoned would not receive "Incessant Training" mission credit after killing the boss. All party configurations now correctly receive credit
- Instance Mission Credit — Fixed mission credit not being awarded in various instances when the party leader was in a different zone. Affects all mission types (monster hunting, raid bosses)
- Eva's Quest Kill Credit — Fixed an issue where party members could receive Eva quest kill credit while being in a completely different area. Credit now correctly requires proximity to the killed monster
Training Grounds
- Boss Spawn Timer — The training grounds boss now spawns exactly 10 minutes after selecting a zone, instead of randomly between 10-50 minutes. No more waiting around wondering when it will appear
- Boss Not Spawning — Fixed a rare issue where the training grounds boss would fail to spawn entirely when switching zones late into the instance
Dagger Skills
- Shadow Step / Shadow Step: Assault — Fixed an issue where these skills could occasionally teleport players through walls or out of the map. Movement now properly respects terrain collision
- Backstab (all variants) — Fixed a minor animation glitch when using Backstab at close range. The skill no longer does a short slide when already in melee distance
Pre-Launch Patch Notes - April 3, 2026
Skill Fixes
Elemental Master
- Unicorn Skills (Blaze, Spring, Trample, Pace) — All now properly hit in an area (up to 8 targets) as intended. Blaze is now Fire element, Trample is Earth, Pace is Wind

Dagger Classes
- Backstab — Reworked movement to be faster and more reliable. No longer gets stuck on terrain or fails in tight spaces
- Hidden Dagger — No longer triggers on basic auto-attacks. Now correctly triggers only when using specific dagger skills (Backstab, etc.)

Grand Khavatari
- Burning Strike — Knockdown effect can now be resisted as intended. Resistance improves with level
General Skills
- Real Target — Debuff duration corrected to 10 seconds to match tooltip
- Blade Wave / Blade Wave: Slash — Cooldown corrected to 30 seconds. Enchanting now properly reduces cooldown from 30s down to 10s at +3
- My Teleport — Bookmark teleport now works for all characters regardless of PK status. Recall and other teleport types remain restricted
Buffalo
- Pulling Body — Pull range doubled and provoke duration increased to match tooltip
Orc Fortress
- Weapon Restore — Your equipped weapon is now properly restored when picking up or dropping the Combat Flag
- Siege HUD — The fortress siege UI tab now properly disappears when the siege ends
- Announcements — Added on-screen warnings before Greg spawns, flag raising notifications, and server-wide capture announcements
- Capture Reward — Clan leaders now receive 30,000,000 Adena via mail when their clan captures the Orc Fortress
Item Fixes

Eva's Subclass System
- New Class Starting Level — New classes from Eva's subclasses now start at level 76 (was temporarily set higher during testing)
General Fixes

🎉 OBT Phase 2 - Live Now
Phase 2 is here. Time to push the server to its limits.
What's New
x10 EXP rates - Level up fast, build multiple subclasses, experiment with builds. This is your chance to test everything.
Free shop currency - Head to the website shop and grab unlimited currency. Use it in-game to gear up, upgrade, and prepare for endgame content. No limits, no restrictions, go wild.
What We Need You To Test
This phase is all about endgame stress testing. The more you break, the better the launch will be.
🔱 Eva's Bounty Raids - This is the big one. Hunt every raid boss you can find. We need volume. Kill them, respawn them, kill them again. Report anything that feels off.
🏰 Sieges - Organize, attack, defend. We need full-scale siege testing.
🏚️ High-Level Dungeons - Push into endgame dungeons and test scaling, drops, and difficulty.
🔄 Subclass System - With x10 rates you can level multiple subclasses quickly. Test switching, skill inheritance, and interactions.
Phase 1 Race Winners
We'll be announcing the Phase 1 OBT race winners next week. Stay tuned!
OBT Stays Open Until Launch
OBT will remain active until launch day. Bring your friends, bring your clan. The more testers, the better the launch will be for everyone. We're continuing daily updates and improvements just like we have been since day one.
Launch is planned for late March / early April. We'll announce the exact date as we get closer.
Thank You
10 days in and you've already sent us hundreds of bug reports. We've fixed a huge number of them and we're not slowing down. Honestly, we're humbled by the time and effort you've all put into testing. Every report, every screenshot, every "this feels off" message in the bug channel. It all matters and it's all making this server better.
This community is building something special together. We appreciate every single one of you.
Gear up. The shop is open. Let's break things.
