● NPC Dating system has been added.



- Build enough Amity with a designated NPC and if you succeed in winning him or her over, you can become a couple! Also, a special title will be given if you become a couple!

- Express Goodwill (Give Gift) has been added to confess your affection for a designated NPC.

- You can increase Amity by giving gifts of all Marketplace-registrable items to the NPCs (items under 50 million silvers).

- The ‘favorite items’ of each NPC will be indicated, and when you hand over a favorite item, you can build up on even more Amity. All items sent as gifts will require the consumption of 5 energy.

- If Amity with the designated NPC becomes 1,000, “Confess” will become available.

- The NPC who receives your confession will ask you to give him/her some time to think about it.

- You will receive your answer via a mail in your in-game mailbox (B) in the following maintenance.

- If the NPC who received your confession accepts, you will become a couple and earn a special in-game title. However, Amity will decrease by 10%.

- The special title is called “___’s Lover,” and it will have a distinct color.

- If the NPC who received your confession rejects, you earn nothing back and Amity will decrease by 5%.

- NPC Dating can be enjoyed by all adventurers. Whether you become a couple or not is calculated based on the ratio "How much Amity you have with that NPC"/"The total Amity of all the adventurers who confessed to that NPC the same week."

- Once you become a couple, this relationship will only last a week. Also, you cannot confess to another NPC while you are in the relationship with a NPC, but other adventurers can continue to confess to the NPC you are in the relationship with.

- If you continue to hold the highest Amity with the NPC you are in relationship with, you will stay a couple for 1 more week. If your Amity with the NPC you are in relationship with is low and another adventurer with higher Amity confess to the NPC, your relationship will come to an end.

- This means if the NPC decides to break up with you, you will receive a farewell in-game mail.

- If you succeed in confession and become a couple with 5 NPCs, you will earn the title ‘Flirt.’

- If you succeed in confession and become a couple with 10 NPCs, you will earn the title ‘Heartbreaker.’

- You can express your love to the following NPCs:

Crio, Eileen, Valks, Bahar, Brego Williar, Leona, Richter, Grace Lauren, Elina Leight, Isobelle Encarotia, Dominic Erne, Santo Manzi, Annolisa Rosie, Luwensley, Ornella
