✨ New Content

🏺 New Growth Content: [Artifact] Opens!

- [Artifact], a new growth feature obtained through the Goddess's Grace, is added.

- Artifacts apply their effects just by being owned, and Legendary Artifacts unleash additional effects and special abilities when their exclusive weapon is equipped.


Requirements

- Available after clearing Chapter 30


How to Use

1. [Pray] with [Holy Fire] or Gems to obtain Artifacts, Artifact Shards, [Holy Fire], and more.

- 1 time: 1 [Holy Fire] or 1,500 Gems

- 5 times: 5 [Holy Fire] or 7,500 Gems

※ While praying, the Grade can increase up to 2 times, and there is a chance that Grace's Light doubles, giving you 2x the rewards.

2. Every 50 [Pray] attempts, you can choose and receive one Legendary Artifact.

3. Collect Artifact Shards to promote Artifacts up to ★10.

※ If you obtain an Artifact you already own, you will receive 50 Shards of that Artifact instead.

4. The Artifact upgrade cap increases with your [Showcase] Tier.

※ Artifacts can be promoted starting from Showcase Tier 5.

5. The Artifact types are as follows.

- Legendary: [Belladonna's Tear] (exclusive to [Elderwood Bow]), [Shard of the Shattered Sky] (exclusive to [Meteor Hammer])

- Epic: [Sword of Resolve], [Silver Feather Pendant], [Ember Crown], [Tainted Goblet], [Spiny Chestplate], [Thunderfist]

6. [Holy Fire] can be obtained from the [Clan Shop], [Showcase Fund], [Artifact Rush], and more.

※ [Clan Shop]: Requires Clan Level 6 or higher; exchange 3,000 Clan Coins for 1 [Holy Fire] (3 times per week)

7. You can view your owned Artifacts in the [Artifact] tab of the [Progression] tab.

🗄️ [Showcase]: Grow by Collecting Gear

- [Showcase] is added, where you display owned Gear to gain EXP and upgrade the Showcase to raise your Total HP and Artifact upgrade cap.


Requirements

- Available together with [Artifact] once it is unlocked


How to Use

1. Of the 19 types of Showcase-eligible Gear (S-Grade Gear), those you own are displayed in the Showcase, and higher Gear Grades and Enhancement Levels grant more EXP.

※ If you own multiple copies of the same Gear, only the highest-Grade one counts.

※ If consuming Gear lowers the highest Grade of your owned Gear or causes Gear to disappear, EXP decreases.

2. Collect EXP to upgrade the Showcase up to Tier 50. EXP is not consumed when upgrading.

※ A Showcase that has already been upgraded will not drop in Tier even if its EXP decreases from consuming Gear.

3. Total HP increases as the Showcase is upgraded.

4. Every 5 Showcase Tiers, the Artifact upgrade cap increases by ★1.

5. Upgrade the Showcase to receive [Holy Fire] from the [Showcase Fund].

6. You can view the [Showcase] in the [Artifact] tab of the [Progression] tab.

 



🏁 Artifact Rush

- Once [Artifact] is unlocked, you can participate in [Artifact Rush].

- The number of times you 'Receive the Goddess's Grace' through [Pray] becomes your score, and rewards are given based on quest completion across 4 rounds and your final ranking.

- During [Artifact Rush], you can obtain [Holy Fire] from the event shop and the [Blessing Fund].



 

⚙️ Changes and Improvements

Content

- An exchange that converts 12 [Legendary Weapon Archetype] into 1 [Mythic Weapon Archetype] is added to the [Gear Workshop].

※ [Legendary Shield Archetype], [Legendary Gloves Archetype], and [Legendary Ring Archetype] can also be exchanged for the Mythic Archetype of the same part in the same way.

※ Only displayed if you own at least 1 Mythic Gear of that part.

- Once you have cleared all of the [Tower of Trials], a 'Merge Gear 1 Time' quest appears in Daily Quests instead of the [Tower of Trials] quest.

- A description of Competitive Servers is added to the [Clan Raid] rules.

※ The range of Competitive Servers expands periodically, allowing you to compete for rankings with Clans from more Servers.


UI / Visibility

- A Gear tab is added to the preparation screen, allowing you to check and swap your Gear right there before battle.

- The Gear, Pet, Aura, Hero, and Skin detail windows now show whether it is equipped and whether its stats are applied.

- The indicator showing Block being removed during battle is improved for better visibility.

- The display order is improved so that attack effects and DMG numbers from Gear abilities during battle are not hidden by other effects.

- The notice 'Purchased items only apply to the account on the current server.' is added to the [Ad-Free Card] purchase screen.

- The app icon is changed.

 



🔧 Bug Fixes

Battle and Systems

- Fixed an issue where [Millennium Dragon]'s additional DMG, dealt each time a certain number of Burn or Freeze effects are removed from the enemy, triggered separately for each time the condition was met, causing the trigger count to be higher than it actually was.

※ It now triggers once as a combined hit, and its DMG scales with the number of times the condition was met.

- Fixed an issue where, when challenging the [Endless Tower] with two Heroes, the Item Merging Recipe on the preparation screen was displayed based on only one Hero.

- Fixed an issue where the values in the Item Merging Recipe tooltip viewed from the Backpack on the event content preparation screen were calculated based on your own growth stats.

- Fixed an issue where the Merge-available indicator on shop items did not update immediately after rearranging items in the Backpack in the shop.

- Fixed an issue where the ★2 effect of the Pet [Venomous Spider] was not applied when restarting a battle with Continue.

- Fixed an issue where, after using Continue, you could start a battle with items overlapping in the shop.

- Fixed an issue where items in Storage moved out of their original positions if a battle was started while moving an item.

- Fixed an issue where the [Flesh Burst] effect was not applied on higher floors of the [Endless Tower].


UI / Visibility

- Fixed an issue where the notification indicator appeared even after clearing all of the [Tower of Trials].

- Fixed an issue where battle sound effects such as [Berserk!] kept playing in the lobby after leaving a battle for the lobby.

- Fixed an issue where, if a battle was started before the shop refresh effect finished, the previous refresh effect remained in the shop in the next round.

- Fixed an issue where the status display did not update immediately after the Invincible effect ended, making it look as if Invincible was still active.

- Fixed an issue where sound effects briefly played out of sync when entering the Arena at 4x speed.

- Fixed an issue where tapping a link inside a tooltip to open another tooltip caused the previously viewed tooltip to disappear.
