● Blue liquid reagent has been added to the material NPC shop list.
When you combine 3 green reagents and 1 blue reagent through simple alchemy, you get the blue grade elixir.
It has been fixed that cannons could not be spawned inside the castle.
Navigation from within Shakatu's Villa should now follow a more natural path.
It has been edited that annexes and installments cannot be built too close to the Command Post during Conquest Wars.
In order to improve upon the issue where auto-teleport was not working if the ally’s Fort/Command Post was too close to the enemy’s Fort/Command Post at the start of the Node/Conquest War, it has been changed that the distance between the ally’s and the enemy’s Fort/Command Post must be greater than 100M for the auto-teleport to work.
However, this applies only to guild members in the area of the node war.
Guild members who are located in non-participating areas of Safe Zones will not be auto-teleported and in this case, ‘Assemble!’ function can be used to teleport.
Fixed the issue where aim would be blinking upon facing the Wooden Fence installed by the enemy.
A new way to get to top of the Mediah Castle has been added.
Fixed the issue where Forward Guard effect would not come out intermittently when inflicting hit while moving backwards for the following classes:
Ranger, Berserker, Tamer, Musa, Maehwa, Witch, Wizard, Dark Knight, Striker, Mystic
※ When the attacks of both the attacker and the attackee while moving a certain distance very quickly overlap, the damage of the attacker is applied to the attackee even when the attackee has Forward Guard up. On screen it may look like the attackee successfully defends the attack of the attacker’s as the attack appears to have been launched from the front of the attackee. However, the server may detect it as an attack that goes through the attackee and damage may be applied.
This may happen for skills like Maehwa’s Dragon Bite and Warrior’s Solar Flare. We are currently working to resolve the issue and will update you on the progress.
The following characters have been edited to maintain Forward Guard effect only after guard gauge exceeded 10 in the case of inflicting hit while moving backwards:
Ranger, Berserker, Tamer, Musa, Maehwa, Witch, Wizard, Dark Knight, Striker, Mystic
【Warrior】
Number of target hits for the skill Balance Strike has been changed during PvE.
2 hits → 5 hits
Cooldown of all levels of the skill Grave Digging has been changed to 8 sec.

Transitioning to main weapon mode while using the skill Devastation will now bring out the motion of pulling out an ax.
【Valkyrie]
Stamina consumption for the skill Promptness has been decreased from 200 to 100.
The skill tooltip of the skill Promptness has been edited as follows:
Floating on good hits → Floating after successful LMB hit after Death Lint Chase.
【Tamer】
The skill Heilang: Howling has been improved.
The skill cooldown has been reduced from 2 mins. to 40 secs.
Using the skill will teleport the Heilang to its target now to launch the attack on the aimed target.
When using the skill without aiming a target, the Heilang will perfrom the attack on its spot.
Effect applied upon a good hit has been changed from Knockback effect to Stiffness effect.
The speed of the skill launched by Heilang has been made slightly faster.
● Super Armor effect has been added to the skill Absorb Heilang.
● The skill Absorb Heilang V and Absorb Heilang VI will now apply absorb effect to up to 4 allies.
The following improvements have been made to the skills and attack commands of Heilang:
1. Command: Attack
If Heilang and the aimed target is more than 5m away, using the Command: Attack will command Heilang to run up to and explode near the target inflicting damage to the target and surroundings. (The speed to run up to the target has been increased x1.5).
Attack damage has been increased by x1.5 and Knockback will no longer be applied for Heilang that has performed Command: Attack.
2. Command: Follow
Regardless of distance, Heilang will teleport to a spot next to the character.
3. Heilang: Berserk
After using Heilang: Berserk and the berserk mode ends after a minute, Heilang would not disappear anymore. (Berserk mode will be released without a change in its motion).
● Target range to aim at the target for the Heilang has been increased by 25%.
● Attack range of the spin hit and the last hit of the skill Vermillion Bird attack has been expanded.
● Attack range of the White Tiger attack has been expanded.

● The following skills have been improved so that upon use, the combo attack of the Heilang on the target would be made smoother:
Beast Rampage, Allround Spinner, Legendary Beast Dance, Whiplash, Surging Tide, Lightning of Earth, Void Lightning.
● Attack range will face the front now for the skill Flow: Intimidation.
【Ranger】
Fixed the issue where Bound effect would be applied to the target intermittently upon using the skill Spirit's Shackles.
※ This may briefly occur due to the difference of packet speed between server and client when the grapple of the attacker is tried during the attackee’s motion switch. In reality the grapple fails and only the bound effect is applied and improvements were made to minimize this.
● Fixed the issue where the Ranger would run with the Longbow when Auto-run (T) was used in Longbow combat mode.
