Guild Castle Improvements


Developer Notes

With this patch, the Guild Castle has been revamped. With the addition of new research and existing research levels, you can get additional Karma Purple Cube and newly added Sol Erda Fragments, which were highly sought after by Maplers. Also, the obtainable experience value from monsters in the Cache of Greed has increased, as we wanted to strengthen both growth and enhancement through the guild castle revamp.

  • Kanna Skill Adjustment


    Developer Notes

    In the case of the Cherry Blossom barrier in Kanna, it did not defend against many boss attacks as it has its specifications. With this change, we changed the Cherry Blossom barrier to be similar to Battle Mage's Shelter skill to defend against some immediate attacks, and we changed it to apply damage reduction in all attacks.
    In addition, the binding skills were changed to increase the range to suit the effect in Ether Combo and provide convenience. However, some performance will be adjusted together with this update, considering that this change will excessively increase the Cherry Blossom Barrier Skills performance.

  • Cherry Blossom Barrier
  •  ↪ HP Recovery reduced from 10% to 5%.
     ↪ Duration reduced from 30 seconds to 20 seconds.
     ↪ Damage Reduction reduced from 40% to 20%.
     ↪ Now defends against some instant death attacks and damage reduction effect apply to HP-based damage.
  • Cherry Blossom Barrier (Ether Combo)
  •  ↪ Effective range has been improved.
  • Bellflower Barrier (Ether Combo)
  •  ↪ Effective range has been improved.
  • Cherry Blossom Barrier - Spread
  •  ↪ Cooldown reduction reduced from -90% to -50%.
