A major new update is available! On the program: a new time bubble, changes to Cania, shield revamp and many new features and improvements to discover in this changelog.

AT THE EDGES OF TIME

Your exciting journey with Epsilon is coming to an end! Set off on another adventure, in a new time bubble that will most definitely blow you away. Meet new characters, complete new quests, tackle all-new fights, and much more.

To access this bubble, you'll need to complete the quests from the previous zones: the bubble in Amakna Village, those in Frigost, as well as the bubble in Sufokia. Visit the Papycha website (in French) to learn more.
 

CHANGES TO CANIA

Following a terrible disaster, the area of Cania has changed quite a bit:
 

• Visual overhaul and rearrangement of various areas
• Changes made to some older monster families, from level 50 to 160
• Removed a number of resources linked to Cania monsters, and modified associated recipes
• 6 new craftable sets
• 5 new achievements

As a result of these changes:
 

• Certain paddocks have been moved
• Certain Almanax bonuses have been changed
• The World of Twelve map has been updated

Good to know: loading these new areas for the first time may cause some latency.
 

SHIELD REVAMP

Non-cosmetic shields work in a completely new way, and new shields are available. Read the devblog devoted to this revamp to find out more!

The community website Papycha.fr (in French), offers a complete list of shields following the revamp.
 

Retroactivity

 

• Level 1 to 50 shields will have the changes retroactively.
• All the old shields are now linked to the account and can no longer be equipped, except for level 1 to 50 shields.
• A new NPC, Sheila Ding, is available in the Stubbyobs area at [-26, -19]. She will exchange your old shields for "Fortification Runes".
• These runes will allow you to fortify the new shields, the amount of experience given being determined by the shield's recipe. The amount in beta is not the one that will be used during the deployment on the live servers. It will be possible to have 3 different runes:
  • Minor Fortification Rune (shields of 3 to 4 resources)
  • Medium fortification rune (shields of 5 to 6 resources)
  • Major Fortification Rune (shields of 7 to 8 resources)

Good to know: the old shields now "broken" are not possible to be used with Mimisymbics. They do not provide any appearance nor receive any to avoid issues.
 

ASCENSION ISLAND

Sixth Rotation

 

The sixth rotation of Ascension Island starts today! Fight your way to the top of the rankings to unlock maximum rewards... and maximum glory!

Form a team of three and head off to adventure on Ascension Island! From now through January 21 (before maintenance), climb as many floors as you can to unlock rewards based on your position in the rankings at the end of the rotation.

On Ascension Island, you can unlock equipment and pets, the Dofushu, but also cosmetic items to prove your worth at the village Zaap!

Start your Orado adventure by talking to Talok at [-33,-11]. The entrance of Ascension Island is located at [-73,-17].

In-Game Rankings

They're here! Rankings for Ascension Island are now available directly in the game and in real time, via the Volcano icon in your shortcut bar. As no rotations are currently available in the beta, you won't be able to test it yet.
 

Changes to Difficulty

On paper, Ascension Island is available starting at level 100. But in practice, the difficulty is much higher there than on the battlefield! And so we decided to take it down a notch: The dungeon will be easier at the beginning, but it will get more difficult from one stage to the next and after reaching Nightmare mode. Monsters' levels will therefore go from 100-300 to 75-325.

Experience earned from combat in the dungeon has increased.
 

New Rankings and Rewards

Speaking of rankings, here they have been updated to offer a greater challenge to the most players. They now include a "Top 10" and "Top 30". But there's more! The best players from each server will now receive goultines. Here's a breakdown of the new table of rankings and rewards:

• Two new level 200 sets

And that's not all! We wanted to get a head-start on things and go further in adding value to sets, for those not requiring extensive discussion. And if you'd still like to submit feedback, the beta phase is ideal for that. Here are the set bonuses in question:

Stringsecticide

Recipes

The following sets have updated recipes: Stringsecticide, Hail, Buck Anear, Guten Tak, Frigostine, Prophets, Henual, Hel Munster, Meno, and Shushuvereign.
 

Limbo Wand

The bonuses provided by the melee weapon Limbo Wand were much too high for its level. So we decided to change its equipment conditions as follows:
 

• AP lower than 12 OR MP lower than 6
• AND Wisdom higher than 100

 

Potsan Pants

 

• Can now be used with a Mimisymbic.
• The equipment condition has been removed.

 

OPTIMIZED LOADING TIMES: INVENTORIES, BANKS AND MORE

We've started improving the loading time for inventories, banks, chests… any interfaces that display several pages, in fact! These interfaces should load much faster now. To offset this, however, the loading time between pages in these interfaces will take a bit longer.

Before these changes, the game would load all data from the inventory or bank before displaying it. Now it will load from page to page.

Also, the game will no longer load empty pages.
 

MISCELLANEOUS

Quests and Achievements
