🌈Hello, We are EXTOCIUM.🌈

👉🕔 KST: 2025-08-26 04:00 PM ~ 04:30 PM

🧭 Patch Direction

• Adjustments to current progression difficulty and balance are in progress. This patch includes growth and crafting difficulty changes. We will apply the patch after this pre-notice.
• The new client build is in the final stage of QA and approval. We will update it as soon as possible.
• To fix ongoing lag and graphics issues, the graphics pipeline will be changed. Visuals may vary slightly, and some regions will have minor changes to camera angles and POV.
• To resolve persistent wallet connection issues, the wallet service platform will be changed. MetaMask and Trust Wallet connections are supported, and usability is clearly improved.

Due to the large volume of patch notes and QA work, some improvements and bug fixes will be applied in later updates. We appreciate your understanding, and we’ll do our best to roll out patches quickly in sequence.

⚖️ Balance Direction

• After the balance patch, the “Reload Item” will be time-limited. Unused items will be automatically deleted from inventory after a certain period. (20days)
• The balance patch focuses on buffing low-performing skills, and movement skill settings will also be adjusted.
• To allow INT-based builds to use mid-melee magic skills (e.g., Water ball), one movement skill will be changed. The lowest-usage skill “Canon rush” will change from AP-based to SAP-based.
• Details may change or be added before the patch, and this notice will be updated accordingly.

🌀 Active — Movement Skills

• Canon rush changes from AP-based to SAP-based (provides an INT-based escape).
• Overlap calculation fix: On-move effects (e.g., damage reduction) no longer stack multiplicatively with buffs.
• If 80% damage reduction while moving is present, apply that first, then apply shield/buffs.
• Example when moving with 80% DR + 20% shield and taking initial damage 100: (100 * (1 - 0.8)) * (1 - 0.2) = 16
• Moon storm is also handled as an Active — Movement skill.
• Fixed movement speed while moving (same as dash/jump types; does not stack with move-speed buffs).
• Damage-reduction calculation while moving follows the new movement DR formula.
• After change (Moon storm): 50% damage reduction during skill time (was 38%), Movement Speed 7.2 (was 38%) applied, duration reduced 4 s → 3.6 s.

🔧 Crafting

• Higher-tier gear will have higher crafting difficulty; lower-tier components will have reduced difficulty.
• Extocium Shard: Crafting cost 3,000 → 1,000
• Extocium: Crafting cost 30,000 → 10,000
• Material Random Box: Each crafting cost −50%, Evil Crystal cost −50%, Core of Luck/Protection cost −50%
• Heart of Water: Convert material from Evil Crystal (3,000) to Mystic Stone (8), and Hot Pepper cost 80 → 100

🎁 Equipment Drops

• In field hunting, equipment grade dropped from Paid Energy Pool increases by 1–2 grades per field.
• Ancient Tears field: Drops up to Sealed Awakening Darkness grade from Golden Giant Slime tier.
• Leviathan: Drops up to Sealed Sword of light.
• Drop chance of equipment from field monsters’ Paid Energy Pool increases.
• Sealed gear → NFT-grade gear drops in sealed state.
• In My Home, unlock Rune Breaker’s Crafting Station to perform unsealing (available when any hero on the account is Lv. 40+).
• Add Rune-break byproduct to unsealing → new item “Rune Shard”.
• New item “Elemental Energy” obtainable by combining attribute stones from raids → craftable at Crafting > Items.

🌾 Field Balance

• Slight reduction to ATK/HP of all monsters.

🗡️ PK Leverage Zone Changes

• Remove item requirements from PK-zone entry requirements.
• Increase required gold to enter PK zones.
• Reduce EXP loss on death in PK Leverage.
• Increase probability that gold drops on death in PK Leverage (drop ratio unchanged).

🔢 PK Level Adjustments

PK Lv.	EXP loss rate (%) Before	EXP loss rate (%) After	Gold drop prob. (%) Before	Gold drop prob. (%) After
0	0.1	0.05	10	12
1	0.2	0.06	11	14
2	0.3	0.07	12	16
3	0.4	0.08	14	18
4	0.5	0.10	18	20
5	0.6	0.20	20	22
6	0.7	0.30	20	24
7	1.0	0.40	22	26
8	1.5	0.60	23	28
9	1.8	0.80	25	30
10	2.0	1.00	30	35

💰 Field Entry Gold Increase

Field	Required Gold (Before)	After
Goblin’s Mine	200,000	250,000
Savage Forest	500,000	1,000,000
Ancient Tears	2,000,000	4,000,000

📢PK Leverage content will be temporarily applied with these ratios, and will change to the Time Vault in the next update (additional QA in progress).
Time Vault automatically stores part of your gold and items during hunting. You can obtain keys through Wizard Challenge (simple chores like energy use, Arena/Raid participation) to unlock it. On PK death, drops will come from Time Vault, not from your regular inventory. When introduced, all fields and dungeons except “Green Field ~ Rahan” will become PK Leverage Zones. The main goal is to lower the PK entry barrier and burden, activating PK play. (If the system runs smoothly, PK-exclusive crafting materials may be added later.)
