New Third Class Jobs

Players who have completed their Transcendent Second Class Job Advancement and have reached level 70 may advance to their Third Class Job through completing the corresponding Job Advancement Quests.

This patch features 6 new classes for Third Class Job: Ranger, Warlock, Archbishop, Rune Knight, Guillotine Cross, and Mechanic. Along with the new 3rd Class updates, players can expect new weapons, armor, and skills, as well as enhancements to each Job's specialized playstyles. Some 3rd Class Jobs even include their own unique mount.

New Map: Aldebaran

The Aldebaran area is now unlocked, bringing new gameplay content.

The Aldebaran area map is now open, along with a new Daily Instance - Machine Factory. New NPCs and various types of monsters were added.

The Base Level Cap for characters is now increased to 100, and the relevant main/side quests are now available. In addition, the Life Skill Level cap has been increased to 10, and the relevant life items are now available.

The latest update added a new Elite Card Slot, which can be equipped with cards generated from monsters level 76 or above. It also added level 100 cards with their related bonds.

The Refinement Level Cap has been increased to 15. NPC Favor System, Glast Heim & Aldebaran Enchantments were added. New functions include Refinement downgrade protection and Enchantment Attribute conversion.

The new update added new MVP boss monsters, including Morroc and Time Holder, while new Mini Boss monsters include Chimera, Owl Duke, and Mysteltainn.

Otherworld Invasion and Endless Tower Bosses are now level 100, and the Endless Tower Boss will respawn at random intervals. New Battle Achievements for level 100 were added.

New Events

The new return events for getting massive rewards will assist players in catching up on the game easier and faster.

Returning System: Tailored for returning players that meet the following conditions:

• Character Base Level - 25 and up
• Job Level - 10 and up
• Offline time - 7 days and up

Upon receiving the benefits, there will be a 90-day cooling period until the next eligibility.

New Returning Player Rewards: exclusive titles/logos for returning players, New permanent Mounts/Costumes/Headgear packs were added.

Improved Base/Job experience and other rewards will also help returning players to level up more quickly.

Level Catch-up Mechanics: Optimized the Odin experience bonus buff - when the world level gap exceeds 30 levels, this exclusive bonus will be triggered — the greater the level gap, the higher the experience multiplier. This is to help more players get back into Midgard faster and catch up with other players.

Party Exclusive Bonus: When partying up with a returning player who has the Odin experience bonus active, other members in the same map will be rewarded based on that player's Odin consumption, and also enables other exclusive bonus drops in Instances and MVP/Mini Battles — such as the "A Travel Companion" gift pack.

Gameplay Optimization and Bug Fixes

• The new patch added a Backpack weight limit and Warehouse capacity limit.
• It also optimized the MVP/Mini reward system. Once all the character damage for MVP rewards (3 times daily) has been used up, it'll no longer be included in the ranking of the new MVP damage rankings. After the battle, the output data of all payers in the team without bonuses will be deducted. Then, the amassed damage of all the teams will be rearranged for the distribution of rewards. Players who have exceeded the limit can still get rewards by partying up with adventurers who still have bonuses in order to receive "A Travel Companion" gift package rewards.
• The difficulty of unlocking achievements was reduced. Battle Achievements related to MVP damage percentage quests and relevant questlines for Limited Time quests were optimized. Certain Battle Achievements for PVP kill quests and increased party count were optimized. Some of the cumulative kills for the quest against the priest's resurrection also count.
• The disconnect and reconnected systems were optimized. After a player is disconnected — the countdown to automatically reconnect will commence, allowing other players to have a better experience.
• The Battle Achievement issue regarding the count for cumulative kills on class players when participating in KVM was fixed.

Besides these massive updates, the new sub-server "Aldebaran" in the Valkyrie server was opened.
