■ New Siege Weapon: Judgment of Aal

In a Siege War, two Guilds engage in a fierce conflict over the ownership of the castle, and the winning Guild claims both fame and glory for their hard work.

However, Siege War is currently more about all-out battles and less about tactical strategies, so it is difficult for the losing Guild to turn the tides of battle if they lack in power.

We have mentioned at the previous ball about our plans to make Siege War more exciting, and our first step is the addition of Judgment of Aal" in this update.

Judgment of Aal" is a Siege Weapon with excellent mobility and devastating firepower, capable of dealing massive damage to both Adventurers and castle walls. It will be a threat to even the sturdiest lines of defense.
The attacking Guild should use it wisely and protect it at all costs, while the defending Guild should prioritize its destruction.

We expect this new Siege Weapon to bring about new tactics in Siege War and make battles more dynamic.

Judgment of Aal is first of the many improvements to come, and we will keep a close eye on statistics after its addition to ensure that Siege War becomes more thrilling and enjoyable.

 


- A new Siege Weapon, Judgment of Aal, has been added.
- Two players can mount Judgment of Aal: one person driving the weapon and one operating the cannon.
- The driver can accelerate while mounted.
ㆍDuring acceleration, Judgment of Aal will leave trails that decrease the move speed of enemy Adventurers.
- The gunner can check the direction of the cannon on the mini-map, identical to normal cannons, and can tune the firing distance by holding down the fire button.
- Adventurers mounting Judgment of Aal will be invincible until they dismount.
- Judgment of Aal can be checked in [Guild Fortress > Manage Weapons]. 
- Judgment of Aal can only be summoned by the attacking Guild, and is unavailable for the defending Guild.
- Judgment of Aal grows stronger with each failed siege, and the enhanced Judgment of Aal can be used in the next Siege War.
ㆍJudgment of Aal can go up to Level 6.
ㆍJudgment of Aal's Max HP varies depending on the Adventurers' CP rank, tallied each day (Elite, Knight, Count)
ㆍThe initial level after the update will be Level 1.
ㆍLevel increases by 1 for each failed siege.
- The enhancement from failed sieges will reset upon a successful siege using Judgment of Aal.
- Judgment of Aal can be redeployed 5 minutes after it is destroyed.
- Judgment of Aal can also grow stronger by defeating a certain number of enemy Adventurers.
ㆍThis enhancement can go up to Level 10 and will not reset when destroyed.
ㆍThe enhancement from Adventurer kills will reset at the end of every Siege War.
- The HP of Judgment of Aal will recover back to 100% upon switching sides in Valencian Siege War. 
ㆍThe Guild that was initially defending the castle cannot use Judgment of Aal even after switching sides.

■ Story

Developer's Comments:
On this journey, there are times when Adventurers need to gather power with your Family members.
When defeating a horde of monsters in Path of Glory, or when climbing Tower of Trials, you can achieve better results when you are with allies.

However, newer Adventurers might not have enough time and resources to create new allies and power them up.
That can come up as one of the barriers to enjoy the content mentioned previously.

We've added Stories so that Adventurers can naturally recruit allies and enjoy new content.
Rather than simply getting a character through the story, we hope that you will become more immersed in the backstory of these classes and allow them to join the Family in a more meaningful way.

- 4 new Stories have been added so you can recruit new allies.
ㆍ If there are available character slots when completing a story, the class from the story will be created as a level 55 character equipped with epic gear.
ㆍ If there are not enough character slots, a Recruit Ally item will be created in the Pearl Inventory, and it can be used to create a level 55 character equipped with epic gear upon use.

Story Requirement
A New Ally: Gladiator Complete Southwest Calpheon Main Quest 'Hexe Marie, the Witch' 
A New Ally: Huntress
A New Ally: Archmage Complete South Mediah Main Quest 'Illezra's Servant'.
A New Ally: Titan Complete North Mediah Main Quest 'Elric High Priest'.

■ Tangled Time
- After the update on May 24, the number of [Tangled Time] obtained as a reward by defeating Chaos Muraka will increase.
ㆍ[Chaos Muraka Reward I] will be mailed to Adventurers who can obtain spoils left by Muraka or have participated in the Chaos Muraka Boss Rush but were not able to obtain the reward.
ㆍ[Muraka's Specter Helmet] in your Inventory will be removed and [Chaos Muraka Reward I] will be sent to your mail.
ㆍAfter maintenance on May 24, you cannot obtain "Traces left by Muraka" or participate in "Muraka's Spectral Forest" until Chaos Muraka appears in Longleaf Tree Forest on May 29 (Sun), 21:40.


■ Ancient Ruins: New Difficulty

- After the update on May 24, the new difficulty "Eternal" will be added to Ancient Ruins.
