Hello community,

We are excited to announce our latest patch which sees a return of dragon mounts to the game! Additionally we've made a big change to the game arena queue. Check below for more details.

 

Dragon Mounts!

Battle Merchant Rena has returned to Junon Polis and she is looking for Draconis Peak badges. Earn badges by completed daily quests in Draconis Peak and when you've collected 3 and accumulated 10,000 honor points return to Rena to claim your dragon mount!

 

PvP Game Arena Queue - No Groups

We have disabled pre-made groups from being able to queue in game arenas, everyone must participate solo. Our goal by disabling pre-made groups is to reduce queue times and to reduce the chance of a one-sided match with a strong pre-made group on one side .This is the first step in our process to improve the PvP game arena balancing issues. In a future update we plan to extend these changes by distributing players more fairly by taking into account level, job and more. Stay tuned and please don't forget to give us your feedback!

 

Increased attack speed substat

The 2.5% attack speed substat in the highest substats was increased to 5%. We will be observing the effect of this change and may adjust this value again based on player feedback.

 

Halloween Event (October 13th)
