MAJOR UPDATES - Ash Forest

We hope to extend this new goal for many adventurers seeking to become the very best. Just as many challengers rose up to the challenge in the Valencia - Part 2 update where we first introduced Aakman and Hystria, we await in eager anticipation of the day when adventurers will conquer Ash Forest.

MAJOR UPDATES - Changes in Garmoth's Attack Pattern
● Changed the attack pattern of World Boss Garmoth.With the Drieghan release, Garmoth made her presence known, perched on her nest, wielding the Kagtum with her overwhelming presence. Yet due to the adventurers who've grown quite stronger, Garmoth hasn't been able to display her true "dragonly might" as of late. Truth be told, attack patterns where Garmoth takes flight to assume invincibility were seen as a mere nuisance to those adventurers who've already conquered the dragon. To spice things up, especially for adventurers who've already conquered Garmoth, we changed a portion of her attack patterns.
In addition, we are continuing to look for specific ways to make more meaningful "challenges" and "rewards" that World Bosses including Garmoth can offer for our adventurers. At the same time, we don't want to completely alter your "play patterns" by suddenly increasing difficulty levels.
- Removed the statues' interaction with Garmoth when she first descends and when her health reaches certain levels.
- Changed for when Garmoth takes flight and is absorbing magic energy, it needs to be broken a certain number of times.
- If Garmoth is not stopped from absorbing magic, she will then begin to start casting a strong magical attack.
- Increased the health and number of the Kagtums that appear when Garmoth roars and takes flight.
- Fixed the issue of Garmoth immediately taking flight right after landing on the ground.
- Reduced the times Garmoth launches jump attacks while grounded.
- Added a slight cooldown after Garmoth finishes casting a strong attack.
● Increased Garmoth's HP by approx. 10%.NEW & IMPROVEMENTS
| SORCERESS
● Removed unnecessary split damage effects in Main Weapon and Succession skills.| VALKYRIE
● Removed unnecessary split damage effects in Main Weapon and Succession skills.| ARCHER
● Removed unnecessary split damage effects in Awakening skills.The split damage effect is when the total amount of damage is reduced when attacking multiple enemies or the damage that is split depending on the number of enemies within the skill's area of impact. While it was our goal to purposely apply it only to certain skills, we discovered the effect was also being applied unnecessarily to a certain number of skills. Thus we began combing and inspecting through all of the skills, and here we removed all unnecessary skill effects that were being applied to the Sorcerer, Valkyrie and Archer skills. Now you can check for skills that have the split damage effect in their skill descriptions.
