APHETA BELUSLAN
A NEW BATTLEFIELD
The ongoing war between Elyos and Asmodians has escalated in a new PVP zone with mobile flying bases: Apheta Beluslan.
Apheta Beluslan is for experienced warriors who crave unbridled conflict. But wait — there’s a whole new aspect these two factions haven’t seen before. The Elyos and Asmodians will enter the battlefield in their own mobile bases: Flying ships!
Win or lose, all heroes will be awarded Heroic grade accessories and key crafting materials after the battle. Daevas, you won’t want to miss this.
MOVEMENT
PHAISTOS’ DISK
The level cap has now been increased from 55 to 58 - because you’re going to need it! In the new Phaistos’ Disk dungeon, you must battle to the highest tier and defeat the awakened giant. If you are successful, you have the chance to unlock the new Gliding Boost skill!
The new Gliding Boost Skill allows all classes to use a burst of speed while soaring through the air and can be acquired from named enemies within the Phaistos’ Disk Dungeon. More newly released Level 58 Skills can also be acquired from the dungeon to make you even more powerful. Gear up and group up, for these skills and other treasures await…
World Drop Lockbox SEASON 2
We are aware that many of you are not happy with our current drop rates of world drop items. We reviewed your suggestions and we’re excited to let you know that we’ve boosted drop rates so that you can obtain much more Kinah, Stigma Bundles, Manastone selection boxes, and Balic Materials through newly revamped Mysterious and Brilliant Lockboxes during the Season 2. The drop rate for this item will be much closer or even higher to what it was prior to 2.5 for some of the items.
Mysterious Lockboxes and Brilliant Lockboxes are being added across the board. This includes all the world drops and should help significantly with gearing up for end game content!
Please make sure to use all your remaining Mysterious and Brilliant Lockboxes and Keys as they are going to be removed during the maintenance on October 24.
Identical to season 1, for each lockbox, you will need a corresponding key to open. A total of 100 Mysterious Lockbox Keys are available from the Daeva Pass, and 50 Brilliant Lockbox Keys are available if you unlock Daeva Pass Premium. We are also going to give out Lockbox keys through events as well!
DAEVA’S SUPPORT
New and returning players are in luck! For Daeva’s who are starting their first adventures or for those who are not quite strong enough to access the new content, the new special support event will help push you forward! The Daeva’s Support event will give levels 1-55 access to elite weapons, buffs, upgraded warehouse storage, and various rewards. Jump in now to rise to new heights!
