v8.7.5 Update Details
========================
▶ The v8.7.5 update introduced in the Developer's Preview has been completed.
- Check the [Developer's Preview] for more information on the v8.7.5 update.
▶ [Monster Storage & Sealed Shrine] Improvements
- [Monster Storage] The UI has been improved to let you store and move Monsters more easily across Sky Island, Monster Storage, Summoned Monster Sealed Shrine, and Normal Monster Sealed Shrine.
: You can select from the dropdown menu to move Monsters across storage locations.
- [Monster Storage] A temporary engraving feature has been introduced to let you use Monsters in the Normal Monster Sealed Shrine in Siege Battle, Arena, and Arena Interserver Battle.
: A Sealed Shrine tab has been added to the Monster Storage window of the battle preparation screen. Under this tab, you can use Monsters in the Sealed Shrine for battle, load Runes/Artifacts from other Monsters, and access the Rune/Artifact management menu to temporarily engrave them.
: Temporary engraving costs 300,000 Mana Stones.
: Temporarily engraved Runes and Artifacts will automatically return to the original Monster once the battle ends.
: Runes/Artifacts of Monsters in Repeat Battle will be disabled for temporary engraving.
▶ [World Arena] A new save slot has been added for the bulk save/load feature for Runes and Artifacts.
- This addition will let you save the Rune/Artifact status of all Monsters and revert to a previously saved status.
- The current save data will be assigned to Slot 1, and a new Slot 2 will be added. When saving/loading Runes or Artifacts of all Monsters, you can now choose a slot to save or load.
▶ Rune, Gem/Grindstone, Artifact, and Conversion Stone MAX Slot Limit Increased
▶[World Arena > Monster > Favorites] A favorites feature to register Monsters for pre-ban in SWC mode has been added.
- You can register up to 10 Monsters under this pre-ban favorites menu.
▶ You can now load Siege Battle Runes/Artifacts in the settings menu of [Guild Battle Research > Rune/Artifact Settings].
▶ [Mentor/Mentee] System Improvements
- The minimum level requirement for Mentors has increased from Lv. 50 to Lv. 100.
- The Mentor Participation ON/OFF feature will be removed. Lv. 100 Summoners will automatically be qualified to be a Mentor.
- Unlike the current automatic approval system, Mentors must approve requests to finalize the pairing.
* As mentioned in the Developer's Preview, all Mentor-Mentee relationships involving Lv. 50 - 99 Mentors will be disabled after the v8.7.5 update.
※ All Mentor-Mentee relationships involving Mentees who have not logged in for 30+ days will be removed after the v8.7.5 update. (The existing system removes outdated relationships upon login, but this time they will be removed all at once after the update as a one-time action.)
▶ Arena/World Arena Summer Season Theme
- You can enable and disable the season theme in the game settings. (Settings > Options > Other Settings)
▶ [Shop > Efficient > Special Pack] Time-Limited Attribute Summon Packs
- Sale Period: After v8.7.5 update on Jun. 25 - Aug. 31, 11:59 PM (server time)
▶ Game Bugs Fixed.
- [Craft Building] Fixed an issue where Gems, Grindstones, and Rift Crystals could not be crafted in bulk under certain conditions.
- [Siege Battle > Manage Monster Deck > Monster Storage] Fixed an issue where Monsters placed in defense could not be added to a deck.
- Fixed an issue where the duration of (Water) Devil Maiden's [Bind: Demon Bag] decreased incorrectly when attacking with 2nd Awakened (Light) Frankenstein's [Body Press].
- [Siege Battle] Fixed an issue where you were moved to the title screen when opening the Monster info screen.
- Fixed an issue where Monsters stored in the Sealed Shrine were not shown when searching Monsters by name.
