The following visual effects are scheduled to be implemented with the Graphics Remaster update.

1) Physically Based Rendering

2) Screen Space Reflection

3) Shadow Quality Improvement

4) Rendering Resolution Improvement

5) LOD Quality Upgrade

6) Double Viewing Distance

7) Support up to 120 FPS

We aim to reduce obstacles when progressing through the season and enable easier, faster progression through the Season Remaster.

 
[Major Changes]

1) Season Pass Quest Objectives

Starting with the Remastered Season, Season Pass quests, which previously required progressing through the main quests, will become content-based,

thereby addressing the issue where Adventurers felt "required" to complete the main quest in order to progress through the Season Pass.

2) Season Reset
Additionally, seasons will not reset when a new season starts, and new Adventurers will be able to complete previous seasons and obtain rewards.

* Applies to seasons following the Season Remaster update.

3) Season Completion Reward

- Starting the Remastered Season, completing a season will no longer grant completion rewards.

* Perilla's Star and Secrua Crystal can be obtained using the completion certificate item obtainable during the first Season after the remaster.

4) Adventurer Progression Log

- A new category, "Season Plus," will be added to the Adventurer Progression Log.

- With season rewards and Adventurer Progression Log rewards, Adeventurers can achieve approximately 60,000 CP quickly and easily!

Alongside the Great Library of Calpheon, Fishing, and Martial God Tournament revamp, an Achievement renewal is currently under development.

We are planning to remove achievements that are too trivial or grant minimal rewards, and replace them with meaningful achievements and corresponding rewards.

Additionally, we are increasing the requirement for frequently completed achievements, namely "Spending Ancient Gold Coins," as well as their rewards.

Lastly, we are reducing overly competitive or repetitive achievements

and replacing them with meaningful achievements focused on collection, challenge, and reward.

Coming up next is the UI Remaster.

As announced at the Calpheon Ball, we are improving the game UI according to the priority

1) Main Menu

The most significant change is to the Main Menu, which now supports UI customization.

You can now adjust button placement, size, and opacity to create a personalized UI that fits your playstyle.

2) Side Menu

We have reduced the size of individual icons and reorganized their layout based on their specific functions.

While the new interface may feel unfamiliar or slightly inconvenient at first, we believe it will offer a much smoother experience once you get used to it.

Since we understand that adjusting to these changes takes time, we will provide an option to use the old UI for the time being.

Adventurers on the Global server will be able to experience these two updates on Mar 17 (Tue) first.

Inventory, Black Spirit's Influence, and Enhancement screen will be updated at a future date.

One of the major characteristics of the remastered class, a fusion of Ascended and Awakened class, is the passive skill.

For instance, the Transcendent Warrior, a fusion of Gladiator and Berserker,

can choose between Gladiator's and Berserker's passive skill.

As you can see from the illustration above, each Transcendent class can choose from their Ascended or Awakened class's passive skill,

and skills will have different effects based on which passive skill you choose.

Please note that not all passive skills will be introduced as is due to the overall class balance.

Transcendent classes will include skills from both Ascended and Awakened classes.

Here are a few examples:

Warrior will be able to use Spinning Slash, Blade Strike, and Ground Smash from Gladiator,

alongside Triumph, Crushing Falcon, Havoc Thrust, and Crimson Cyclone from Berserker.

- Gladiator: Spinning Slash, Blade Strike, Ground Smash, Shield Charge, Take Down, Piercing Spear, Counter Slash, Ground Slash

- Berserker: Triumph, Crushing Falcon, Havoc Thrust, Crimson Cyclone, Reckoning, Berserker's Charge, Frenzied Strikes, Slashing the Dead

Some Adventurers may wonder why are skills not as popular are also included in the list.

We are planning to add Guard Types to skills which previously didn't have one, or improve the utility of these skills.

Witch will be able to use Blizzard, Fireball, Frost Pillars, and Frigid Fog from Archmage,

alongside Fissure, Overcharge, and Electric Wave from Invoker.

- Archmage: Blizzard, Fireball, Frost Pillars, Frigid Fog, Arcane Burst, Meteor Shower, Fireball Explosion, Frostspike

- Invoker: Fissure, Overcharge, Electric Wave, Voltaic Pulse, Power Surge, Bodyguard, Yoke of Ordeal, Barrage of Lightning

Ranger will be able to use True Shot and Razor Wind, which are Huntress' core skills,

alongside Wind Knife, Ethereal Blast, and X-Strike from Windwalker.

- Huntress: True Shot, Razor Wind, Flurry of Arrows, Blasting Gust, Evasive Explosion Shot, Descending Current, Penetrating Wind, Kamasylve's Rain

- Windwalker: Wind Knife, Ethereal Blast, X-Strike, Wind Slicer, Gale Harvest, Wind Rider, Spirit's Haven, Wind of the Spirit

Sage will also have skills from both Ascended and Awakened class.

- Sage: Void Beam, Judgment of Ator, Phase Shift, Spatial Shatter, Wormhole, Spatial Collapse, Atomagia, Dimensional Compression

- Legatus: Spear Bolt, Lightning Crash, Thunderclap, Lightning Sentinel, Sentinel Beam, Thunderbird, Piercing Bolt, Ator's Spear

Sage will be able to travel a long distance in a flash by using Wormhole, Thunderclap, and Thunderbird in order.

The four classes showcased above will be available in the upcoming Test Server.

Test Server will operate under the following conditions.

Adventurers will have to apply for a Test Server account, and require a separate Test Server Launcher.

You will be able to access the Test Server from the Test Server Client, and all Adventurers around the world will be playing in one server.

Please note that for the purpose of testing, Adventurers will be elligible for applying a Test Server account only if they have at least one Family that has completed a season.

When you first log into the Test Server, you will create new characters, and receive items that will help boost your growth.

After the test period ends, your characters will be reset.

We are also considering a feature to allow Adventurers to "copy" their existing characters onto the Test Server

so that Adventurers can participate in the testing under their familiar settings.

A new server will open, with various boosts to support your growth!

We look forward to your participation on the new server, and here are the benefits for the new server:

■ New Server Benefits

1) EXP & Drop Rate +100% Hot Time for 3 months since server launch
