Preface
Trying something new with this patch's notes, basically all the actual new content updates and additions will be in these preliminary, and the detailed job changes and bug fixes will be in the full notes. I'm splitting them into 2 parts just to keep things slightly organized, everything together can be found in game via the patch notes option.
Clockwork Tower
The Clockwork Tower is a 6 boss raid instance that drops item level 80 weapons and item level 90 armor. It is unlocked through the Main Story Quest Progression. The raid also comes with a new system that will let you "augment" your item level 80 weapons turning them into item level 100 weapons. Augmenting requires multiple full clears of the raid, due to there not being a skip this time around.
To augment 1 weapon you will need to "scrap" (Disasemble) 5 unaugmented weapons. Each weapon gives 10 parts when scrapped. You will also need 5 Ancient Gears (this is the raid currency this time, think like invictus embers) Each boss can drop Ancient Gears but the chance starts low and becomes guaranteed by the time you reach the last boss. You also get more Gears by completing the Hard Mode of the Raid.
Magnus Ren Factory Dungeon
The first new dungeon added to Emperium, this 3 boss instance is unlocked via story progression. It drops Item level 45 weapons. Please note that the Nexus will be unavailable until you first clear of the Magnus Ren Factory. Upon first time completion of the dungeon, the Nexus will become available again as well as be added to the pool of Nexus Dungeons.
Nexus Updates
There are several updates and new additions to the Nexus;
- The old affix "Burning" has been retired and new "Explosive" has been added
