- These quests require you to hand over the same type of accessory (either a Narc Ear Accessory, Tungrad Earring, or Ring of Crescent Guardian) you obtained for completing the quest "Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer" (accepted after completing the quest "A Cry for Help") that is enhanced to TRI (III) and can be registered on the Central Market.
For example, after you completed the quest "Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer," if you chose a Narc Ear Accessory as your reward, you will need to hand over a TRI (III) Narc Ear Accessory that's available to be listed/purchased on the Central Market.
* These quests require you to have the required accessory up to TET (IV) grade in your inventory (unequipped).
* You can complete this questline once per Family.
* Once you completed this questline, you will no longer be able to accept "[Daily] Restocking Supplies" or "[Daily] Old Moon Guild Subjugation Request" quests.
We've added the Old Moon Guild Trade Offer questline which can be completed by all Adventurers. Upon completion, you'll be rewarded either one PEN (V) Ring of Crescent Guardian, PEN (V) Narc Ear Accessory, or PEN (V) Tungrad Earring. Some amount of effort and commitment is required. However, there will be no time restriction to complete it and you will be guaranteed a PEN (V) accessory regardless. So, we hope that you take your time to complete this content.
Regardless of which accessory you pick first, you can change the desired accessory during the process (once per Family, and either when reaching TET (IV) or PEN (V) grade). For example, if you initially chose the Ring of Crescent Guardian and enhanced it all the way up to TET (IV), you can then change it to a TET (IV) Narc Ear Accessory or TET (IV) Tungrad Earring (but do so and you won't be able to change it again at PEN (V) grade).
NEW & IMPROVEMENTS
CONTENTS
● The hunters of Behr village are once again sharing reports of new and rare creatures to hunt.
- They say a certain squirrel has been sighted near an island where foghorns can be heard quite frequently. It's a tiny yet agile creature, and thus can easily be missed.
- Also, there have been reports of rare creatures that hunt only either during the day or by night.
- When night falls, they say you only need follow the light to hunt down the Buck.
- Only by day can you find the Weasel, who gives off a dazzling light only when the sun is out shining brightly.
- You may be able to obtain knowledge by hunting rare animals, and obtain the following titles:
Monster Name |
Title |
Squirrel |
Speedy Zip Zap Here and There |
Weasel |
Sunlit Dew Dewy Sun Shining Down |
Buck |
Sunset Dim Light Dusk |
● Removed the following [Level 1] Barter goods, and replaced them with the new goods below:
Removed Barter Goods |
Added Barter Goods |
Rough Green Crystal Rough Blue Crystal Rough Violet Crystal Powder of Earth Silver Azalea Pile of Sunrise Herbs Cloud Mushroom Fortune Teller Mushroom Wolf Hide Wheat Fruit of Nature |
Black Stone (Weapon) Black Stone (Armor) Lightweight Plume Clear Liquid Reagent Big Cloud Mushroom Pink Trumpet Mushroom Big Fortune Teller Mushroom Wheat Dough Trace of Forest Cooking Honey Cotton Lion Hide Cactus Thorn |
● Changed so that information in the Barter window will now be reset if the contents of the Barter List are changed due to maintenance or some other factor.
- Whenever there's a change to Barter-related content (ie. number of Sea Coins available for Barter on Hakoven Island are adjusted), the information on the Barter window will be reset.
- However, not all information in the Barter window will be reset, as items that were in the middle of Bartering before such changes were applied will retain their information.
For example, when an item listed at Baremi Island which you could Barter for up to 4 times before an update would fall under the "items to be removed" category,
it would be refreshed if it was never exchanged with the full 4 times of Bartering left intact, but even just one exchange would keep it from being refreshed under the changed listing.
Increasedthe maximum number of Family Inventory slots from 48 to 50.
