Quest and Knowledge Changes

We have improved the guild combat missions. Before, the completion rewards were different even if the size limitations were the same, depending on the number of monsters the mission required the guild to kill. Therefore, we have improved the mission rewards to scale based on guild size, lowered the number of monsters for the unpopular missions, cleared out some of the regular missions, and added new missions. However, the guild boss subjugation missions that require the guild boss summons were kept the same.

● Changed the rewards of guild combat missions to the following according to the guild sizes.
- Regardless of which guild combat missions are completed, the guild will be rewarded the rewards listed below, according to their size.
- These changes are applied to [Subjugation] missions, but not to [Boss Subjugation] mission.

Size	Mission Rewards
Extra Large	Guild Skill EXP 120,000 Essence of Fury x1 Old Moon Combat Seal x4 75,000,000 Silver
Large	Guild Skill EXP 70,000 Essence of Fury x1 Old Moon Combat Seal x3 56,000,000 Silver

UI Changes

● A new UI notification has been added that will help Adventurers who have not yet received the free Special Gift Packages, and links them to where they can get them.
- This notification will appear once per day for those who have yet to obtain the free packages.

The Current Location feature or the so-called "ping" feature, that we said during the last Calpheon Ball we would improve, has been categorized into four different patterns: Attack, Moving, Command, and Warning. This change was made so that you can use the feature more efficiently. We also added images for Adventurers who have trouble distinguishing colors.

In addition to the improved "guild ping" feature, we are working on a "guild marker" feature for guilds that allows you to mark locations on the World Map. We hope this "guild marker" feature can be used in a variety of ways including marking enemies' nodes and defense points, designating attack routes for allies, and more.

● Improved so that you can use a wider variety of pings when using the Show Location to Guild Members.
- To quickly use the ping function, you can use the ‘Guild Ping’ setting from the Ring Menu to notify Guild or Party members of a location. However, the ping will only show the location of the adventurer using it.
- On the world map, you can ping a location by holding down L3 and using RS to select a ping on a highlighted location.

● You can also use the Ring Menu to add these pings to a quick use function. To do so, go to the ‘Edit Ring Menu’ option and add the following Ping Markers.
- Select Attack Ping
- Select Moving Ping
- Select Command Ping
- Select Warning Ping

Improvements will be made to the "arrange" feature on your inventory. You can use this improved feature for your inventory as well as your storage in a variety of ways including "Auto Arrange," sorting by grade, enhancement level, weight (LT), capacity (VT), or equipped parts, as well as in "Ascending order" or "Descending order." We hope this feature gives you the flexibility you desire.

● Improved the "arrange" feature so that you can arrange items in your Inventory and storage depending on the settings.
- In addition to the "Auto Arrange" feature, you can now arrange items by grade, enhancement level, LT, VT, and equipped parts.
- Improved so that you can use the "Ascending order" and "Descending Order" arrange features after setting arrange settings.
