We've improved Warrior's reliability when engaging by strengthening the Defensive Effects on dash skills. However, we've adjusted Stamina recovery for certain skills, so you'll need to pay a bit more attention to Stamina management.Additionally, for Awakening Warrior, we've moved some buffs to skills where they fit better.
Main Weapon, Succession
- Changed the skill so Stamina does not recover during the movement phase of the skill.
- Changed Defensive Effects from Forward Guard to Forward Guard plus Resistance against all CC from the rear.

Awakening Ranger's "Flow: Rushing Wind" is now more useful.
If you use "Breezy Blade" while it's on cooldown, "Flow: Rushing Wind" will trigger instead. This lets you chain into "Flow: Rushing Wind" with other skills in combat, helping you keep up pressure and take advantage of openings.
Awakening
- Changed to be unavailable during cooldown.
- Changed to combo into Flow: Rushing Wind instead of Breezy Blade when the skill is on cooldown.
- Changed from consuming Stamina to consuming MP. Stamina now recovers during the skill.
Awakening Musa is a class that can sweep across the battlefield thanks to its excellent mobility. However, we've made adjustments so Stamina management requires more careful planning.Awakening
- Changed the skill so Stamina does not recover during the skill.
- Stamina now recovers during the attack motion after moving, same as Prime: Flame Rush.
- Changed the skill so Stamina does not recover during the skill.
For Awakening Maehwa, we've expanded the skill combo options that use Moonrise. Since these combos rely on Floating, we've adjusted skill damage during the portion where Air Attack applies to make them more practical to use.Awakening
- Added All AP +20 for 10 sec when using the skill.
- This effect is identical to the All AP increase from Flow: Frostflower.
- Sped up the skill animation.
- Added Forward Guard during the skill.

- Adjusted PvP damage ratio as follows.
- Consequently, the PvP damage ratio for Black Spirit: Moonrise has also been adjusted.

| Skill | Before | After |
| Prime: Shadow Blade | 280 Poison Damage every 2 sec for 6 sec |

| 31.67% damage in PvP only |
43.06% damage in PvP only
|
Some portions of certain Awakening Sage skills have had their "Invincible" effect changed to "Super Armor", so you'll need to pay a bit more attention to HP management during fights.Awakening
- Changed Defensive Effects as follows:
- Before: Super Armor during the skill, Invincible while concealed, Invincible on airborne motion
- After: Super Armor during the skill, Invincible while concealed
- Changed Defensive Effects as follows:
- BBefore: Invincible -> Super Armor during the skill
- After: Super Armor -> Invincible -> Super Armor during the skill
Some portions of certain Scholar skills will also have their "Invincible" effect changed to "Super Armor". As a result, it will no longer be possible to "drag out" invincibility during airborne actions and similar moves.All
- Changed so Super Armor applies from the airborne motion onward, excluding the Invincible effect applied while concealed at the start of the skill.
- Changed the Invincible effect during airborne motion to Super Armor.
- Changed the Invincible effect during airborne motion to Super Armor.
- Decreased the Invincible duration by approx. 0.3 sec.
Deadeye fights by using Lil' Devil to pressure enemies at long range and over a wide area, while using Revolvers to focus fire on a single target. However, from the opponent's perspective, there was still too much danger even after pushing through this and closing the distance, so we've made adjustments. The CC effects that applied on both the first and last hits of certain mobile skills will now apply to PvE only. In return, the damage of some stationary skills has been increased.All
- Changed Stun to apply to PvE only.
- Changed Stiffness on hits to Stun, now applying on the first hit only.
- Changed Stun to now apply in PvP.
- Adjusted skill damage as follows:

3,008% x1, max 17 hits 33.64% damage in PvP only [Marni Rounds] 2,707% x1, max 17 hits 33.64% damage in PvP only |
For Wukong, we've made additional improvements on top of the previous Global Lab update, focusing on the Wukong's Hair effect. We've eased the conditions so the dash effect, which previously only triggered while the Hair effect was active, can now be triggered repeatedly by using certain skills to chain dashes consecutively.All
- Adjusted the effects of Wukong's Hair as follows:
| Wukong's Hair | Before | After |
| Trigger Skills | When using Fighting Buddha "empowered" skills |
When using the following skills in the Fighting Buddha state: Tusita's Gourd, Impale
|

Summon a shadow when using Tormenting Spike, Upheaval, or Heaven's Pivot
(Extra Damage) |
Summon a shadow when using Stretch or Hold It
(Stiffness and Extra Damage) |

Dash toward a target hit by your power pole during certain skill combos while Wukong's Hair is active.
(Disabled if Celestial Nectar is locked) |
Dash toward a target hit by your power pole during certain skill combos regardless of Wukong's Hair status. (Disabled if Celestial Nectar is locked)
Additionally, if the attack lands, you can chain consecutive dashes while comboing into skills that extend the power pole. (Dash will not trigger when comboing into non-extending skills or when returning to an idle pose.)
|
- Changed shadow summon to trigger at all times following the Wukong's Hair update.
| Before | After |

Edania Hunting Monsters
The Endtime's energy has seeped into the creatures that lived in packs across Edania. Touched by this force, they have become Hunting Monsters that can be defeated using a matchlock.If you make good use of Edania's energy that appears during these encounters, you'll be able to hunt more smoothly. As loot, you can obtain furniture that decorates your residence and grants stats, as well as valuable special items. We'll continue improving Hunting so it remains a meaningful option for your playstyle and progression.
- New Hunting zones have been established in the Hakinza Sanctuary, Nymphamaré, Orbita, and Zephyros regions of Outer Edania.

Inland Fishing Profit Improvements

- White Crucian Carp have started appearing along the shore next to the Duvencrune Hot Spring.
-
- Hammer Mackerel, Yellow Croaker, and Bluefire Starfish have also started to appear along the Altinova coast.
-
- Increased the spawn rate of White Crucian Carp by about 4.9x in the existing fishing spots near Duvencrune.
Farming Byproduct Adjustments
In Jan 2026, the Contribution Point byproducts for most Life skills were rebalanced. For Farming, the quantity of Blush Leaves obtained from breeding "magical crops" was significantly higher than other Life Skill content. As such, we've adjusted these values to maintain overall balance.Additionally, we increased the drop chance and reduced the quantity variance of Blush Leaves for crops leading up to the magical grade tier for a more stable and consistent yield.
Finally, since it was previously difficult to gain Farming EXP through harvesting, we have increased the EXP gained from harvesting.
- Adjusted the amount and drop rate of obtaining Blush Leaf through Plant Breeding as follows:
- Normal and Special crops refer to those that take up 1 grid slot in a garden.
- Magical crops refer to those that take up 5 slots in a garden.
| Type | Qty | Drop Rate |
| General | 4-10 → 1-3 | 5x higher |
| High-quality | 4-10 → 2-4 | 5x higher |
| Special | 4-10 → 3-4 | 5x higher |
| Magical | 20-50 → 20-22 | No change |
- Increased the Farming EXP gained from Harvesting.
- Adjusted Harvesting to grant about 80 percent of the Farming EXP earned from Plant Breeding.
MONSTER
Sycraia Underwater Ruins Revamp
Sycraia Underwater Ruins has long been a favorite monster zone for Adventurers, built around deep-sea Ancient Weapons. With this update, we've preserved the ruins' original charm and combat style while making mid-hunt rewards more exciting.
A key feature of the revamp is a new mechanic where Sycraia's Memory can appear during combat. It triggers when certain conditions are met, and the rewards improve as you progress.
We've also added Refined Origin of Hunger and Refined Essence of Devouring to the top-tier zone exclusive drops, along with new items such as Sycraia Crystal and Sycraia Shard, further improving the rewards available in zones with the #HighestTier tag.
To maintain the rarity of signature loot, we've decreased the drop rates of Crimson Primordial Luster - Sovereign, Violet Primordial Luster - Sovereign, and Violet Primordial Luster - Edana in these zones.
- In the depths of the sea, a powerful will containing the radiant memories of Sycraia has manifested in the Sycraia Lower Zone.
- Renamed Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Abyssal) to Sycraia Ruins Lower Zone.
- Renamed Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper) to Sycraia Ruins Upper Zone.
- Due to the name changes, related quest titles, dialogue, knowledge, items, and titles have been updated.
- Added the following tag to the Sycraia Ruins Lower Zone.
- #TreasurePieces
- Changed CC attacks in the Sycraia Ruins Upper and Lower Zones to Knockback/Floating.
- Remade the Sycraia Ruins Lower Zone into a top-tier monster zone and adjusted its difficulty and loot.
- Renamed Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Abyssal) to Sycraia Ruins Lower Zone.

Improved Accessibility to Sycraia Ruins
With the Sycraia Ruins revamp, we expect many Adventurers to visit the zone. In the past, even when many Adventurers came to Sycraia Ruins for items like the Tungrad Ring, getting there was still somewhat inconvenient.To improve this, we've added a quest that lets you travel directly to Sycraia Ruins Upper Zone via NPCs in Velia and on Iliya Island, making the trip much more convenient.
- Added new quests to move to the Sycraia Upper Zone by handing over a Fragment of the Deep Sea to the following NPCs.
- You must own the "Sycraia Upper Zone" knowledge to accept these quests.
| Quest NPC | Quest Objective | |
| Velia → Sycraia Ruins Upper Zone | Momo | Hand over Fragment of the Deep Sea |
| Iliya Island → Sycraia Ruins Upper Zone |

Black Shrine - Donghae (Solo) - Oduksini Calamity 8 to 10
Oduksini, having regained its power within the deep darkness, has been added to the Black Shrine at Calamity 8, 9, and 10.This new Oduksini will overwhelm the battlefield with greater ferocity than before. If you fail to properly guide the energy emitted during combat, the tide of battle can turn against you in an instant. As the final boss of Donghae Province, Oduksini has a higher min AP requirement than the Apex Changui. Consequently, the loot obtained upon a successful Boss Blitz has also been increased.
We look forward to seeing our Adventurers stand against the mightier Oduksini.
- Added new difficulty levels, Calamity 8, 9, and 10, for Oduksini in Black Shrine - Donghae (Solo).

| Boss Difficulty | Required Stat |
| Calamity 8 | 365+ Displayed AP |
| Calamity 9 | 375+ Displayed AP |
| Calamity 10 | 385+ Displayed AP |
※ For Calamity 8 or higher, stats from Light Orb (Sun, Moon, Earth Aura) are not applied. Only the stats from your character's equipped gear at entry will count.
※ Weekly Boss Blitz attempts are shared with the current Black Shrine - Donghae (Solo).
- Weekly Boss Blitz rewards for each difficulty are as follows:
- Reward grade is determined by your rank, up to Rank 1. Higher ranks guarantee more rewards and increase the drop rate for chance-based rewards.
- Unless otherwise noted, you will receive 1 of each item listed.

ITEM
Refined Origin of Hunger
Devour items that increase Enhancement Chance are always useful for Adventurers enhancing their gear.

Blessing of Mystic Beasts - Life Skill Mastery
We previously considered adding a Hunting Mastery buff through the Coral Stoneback Crab furniture obtained via Hunting in the Edania region. However, we had a few concerns.
A "Blessing of Mystic Beasts - Hunting Mastery" effect would mainly benefit Adventurers focused on Hunting. If it were only obtainable in Edania, it could also reduce the appeal of existing Hunting zones. We also felt that adding separate Blessings for each Life Skill could create unnecessary complexity and inconvenience.
Instead, we've simplified the system by folding these effects into "Blessing of Mystic Beasts - Life Skill Mastery" rather than creating a Hunting-only version. We've also designed it so the required materials can be gathered and crafted regardless of which region you hunt in.
We hope this naturally connects Hunting with other Life Skill content and adds a unique, engaging element to the Hunting experience.
- Added a new buff, '
Blessing of Mystic Beasts - Life Skill Mastery," which increases Life Skill Mastery.

Dream Horse Skill Control Changes
Krogdalo can transform into any Mythical or Dream Horse and use all of their unique skills.
