Dear Adventurer,
To provide adventurers with a better experience, the Guild will be issuing a temporary restraining order on all adventurer activities in Atlan starting on December 25, 2025 at 06:00 (UTC+0). This order is expected to remain in effect for approximately 4 hours (may start earlier or get postponed depending on actual conditions). During this time, servers will be closed, and all Adventurers will not be able to log in to the game. After the maintenance ends, please restart the game client and update the game before you return for a new chapter in your adventure.
Adventurers who have one or more characters created before the maintenance begins will receive a compensation of Prismadium x100 for this downtime via mail. This compensation can only be claimed once per account. Remember to claim it before it expires! Thank you for your support and cooperation!
I. Version Update Content
▨ "Road to Ascension" Begins
With countless blades pointing forward, this battle is for the throne! HexChess Guard, Leotids, Polones, Meradia the Tyrant, Plague of Filth, Famine of Hunger, Azrael of Annihilation—defeat these seven mighty foes in succession and lay the foundation for your throne!
Event Duration: After the December 25, 2025 maintenance - January 17, 2026, 06:00 (Server time of your character's server)
Unlock Requirements: Clear Apocalyptic Descent on Story or Elite Difficulty to unlock.
1. Race Mode:
a. Rules: Race Mode will be divided into three phases: "Warm-up Phase," "Participation Phase," and "Reward Finalization Phase." You can claim rewards for every difficulty you cleared during both the "Warm-up Phase" and "Participation Phase." However, clears will only be recorded on the "Road to Ascension" race rankings if they happened during the "Participation Phase."
b. Reward Details: There are 6 difficulty levels in Race Mode. You can choose your desired difficulty before starting the challenge. Successfully clear the challenge to claim the rewards of the difficulty challenged as well as the rewards of all preceding difficulties. Rewards include the exclusive Avatar Frame [Road to Ascension], the exclusive Moniker [Stormhawk], and more. The event will also establish Connected Servers "Road to Ascension" race rankings by class, ranked by difficulty and clear times. Make it onto the rankings to get an exclusive SS-grade title (only equippable by the corresponding class), an exclusive Epic Moniker, an Epic Insignia Module Selection Box, Epic Random Cards, and other luxurious rewards!
c. About Rankings: Rankings will be calculated across connected servers. During the event participation phase, if you perform any changes to your class (Class Change, Character Conversion, Character Restoration), your current scores and rankings will be wiped clean, and after the class change, you will be unable to set records or enter the rankings. Please exercise caution when changing classes (class changes during warm-up and reward settlement phases have no effect). Records achieved after Weapon Sync will not count toward rankings.
2. Team-up Mode: There is no difficulty distinction in Team-up Mode. However, a team of 4 is recommended for the challenge. Clearing the challenge on Team-up Mode grants you rewards equal to clearing Race Mode Difficulty 5 and all preceding difficulties.
For more detailed rules, please visit the in-game event interface. Best of luck to you all, Adventurers!
