Greetings, Lords around the world!
This is GM Lunaris.

Let's take a look at the update we have lined up for September 14th (Thu).
※ The detailed schedule for maintenance will be announced via a separate blog post.
※ Please note that you cannot play the game during maintenance.
※ The update details shared below are subject to change during the course of the maintenance.


- Certain heroes will undergo balance adjustments.

1. Aptitude System Rework

- Aptitudes will now have a cap of 5 levels.

- Players can check which Aptitudes they have unlocked on the Unlock Aptitude screen.

- Unlocking Aptitudes will now cause fixed stats to increase at a fixed rate.
※ Resetting Aptitudes will no longer be possible as all stat boosts are now pre-determined.

- Players can unlock a hero's Aptitude Skill at Aptitude level 3. Players can increase the level of this Aptitude Skill at Aptitude level 5.
※ Aptitude Skills are passive skills, and vary based on a hero's class and element.
※ As Aptitude Skills can only be obtained or leveled up by unlocking Aptitudes, Skill Reset Tickets will not affect Aptitude Skills.
- Please refer to the table below for stat boosts corresponding to each class and element.
- All Aptitude Skills can be leveled up to a maximum of level 2.
