I’d like to introduce everyone with the Developer’s Notes for May.

[Battles]

A New Raid will be added along with the Main Story.

Sreng, the Adversary of all, Earth Legion Commander of the Eweca Forces appears as the boss monster blocking your path.

He harbors a deep affection for Blood Legion Commander Bres, the Blood Mistress, intensifying his resentment towards your party.

However, he’s not the foolish kind to neglect his duties of legion commander for revenge.

A dreadful battle awaits, with Sreng willing to risk his life to fulfill his mission.

We’re also preparing a total of 6 Royal Army Raid Battles:

[Gates of Hell], [The Dark, Dank Sewers], [The Giant], [Into the Abyss], [Burning Temple], [The Evil One].

Every day, two different battles from the list will be chosen in rotation.

Each battle requires Lv.115 to depart, and Minimum stat adjustments will no longer be available.

Departure methods remain the same as before and you will be able to earn a new item that allows processing of Mysterious / Abyssal Shards, plus a newly added Mysterious Glass Bottle (Lv.60).

The new Mysterious Glass Bottle (Lv.60) will not drop: Godly Iron Ore, Heavenly Leather, Heavenly Cloth, and Paradise Orb.

We’re also preparing 9 Special Dungeons:

(Special)[Avatar of Destruction], [Memory of the Past], [Remembrance], [Garden of Tears], [The Price of Failure], [Brilliant Lugh], [Fate and Destiny], [God of Death], [Dungeon Laboratory]

Every week, three different battles from the list will be chosen in rotation, and each battle requires Lv.115 to depart.

From the new Special Dungeons, you can earn Special Dungeon: Enchant Pouches.

We do not have any plans for any new enchantments for now, but we are looking into adding them when new accessories or items are added.

Meanwhile, the rewards for the [Dusk on Crescent Moon Island] have been renewed, and we’ve also reallocated rewards so that you can play existing raid battles depending on what item you wish to obtain.

With the maximum level expansion, [Battle of Rocheste], [Clan of Darkness], [Spearhead of Paradise Lost], [Under the Pale Moon], [Ladaton Bridge], [Royal Castle Dungeon] will be adjusted to normal battles.

Also, Waking Stones (Rank A) that were originally dropped from Royal Army Total War will now be added to the Redeemers rewards box obtained after the patch.

[Expertise]

A new Expertise rank, ‘Artisan’ will be added as a maximum level Expertise rank. This can be earned only after completing the story quest, ‘Advanced Expertise Artisan.’

If you obtain the Artisan rank for Expertise, you can craft or advance(Name TBD) Lv.120 items and can also receive crafting requests.

A crafting request requires the requester to prepare all the materials, and the Artisan can proceed using a stall placed in town.

You can only have one Artisan rank Expertise per character, but other characters’ Expertise can be shared.

Shared Expertise of the sort can still craft items, but it won’t let you place stalls or receive requests.

You can also Transfer your Expertise.

You can only transfer Expertise below 399, before you earn the title of Artisan. When you transfer your Expertise, all the titles you own related to it moves along with it.

We considered transferring only the expertise proficiency while retaining the titles.

However, we're concerned that the transferred character won't be able to acquire titles and that using the transfer system would become mandatory for title retention, leading to a complex situation. Therefore, we've decided to proceed in this manner.

Some Artisan rank Expertise will allow crafting avatar from previous equipment, and the necessary materials can be earned from Niflheim and Special Dungeons.
