1. Battle Revamps
1) Spearhead of Paradise Lost
- The cables Ragnahim summons to charge energy have been changed to be more easily destroyed

-
Fixed some of Cessair's attacks looking awkward when she would follow the targeted player until right before the attack then turn or move too far.
- The Attack Speed of some of Cessair's attacks has been lowered.
3) Great Ministry
-
The SP reduction effect from Enok's Venom status effect has been removed.
- Reduced the damage of the Cursed Body status effect from 1200 damage per second to 300 damage per second.
- At the beginning of the attack pattern where holy water must be thrown at the wall during the Great Ministry battle, a status effect that explains how to use the holy water is granted (Throw holy water to purify!).
4) The Winds of Lochlann
- The Branding Flame Level 1 through 3 status effect that occurs when touched by Shamanic Magic has been changed to the Wind Brand Level 1 through 5 status effect.
-
- The Wind Brand status effect alone has no effect, but if you stack it up to Level 5, you will receive the Wind Scar status effect.
-
- Fixed the issue where Branding Flame was applied as soon as you stepped on an enchanted area similarly to above, so that it no longer causes damage as long as you don't step on it for a long time.
- The Wind Scar status effect is the same as the existing Branding Flame (Level 3) status effect (During the duration, Stamina decreases by 60 once, then gradually per second, and decreases HP Restoration by 50%).
-
- Based on the above changes, the Bonus Mission will change to the following:
-
-
- [Before] Win While Avoiding Irusan's Branding Flame (Stage 2)
-
-
-
- [After] Win While Avoiding Irusan's Wind Scar
-
- The speed of Irusan's instant death skill animation at 30-80 frames has been changed to be 20% slower than before.
- The pattern of Irusan's cross-shaped AOE attack has been adjusted to occur 2 times instead of 3.
- The attack pattern where Irusan would jump to a random battle area and shoot a whirlwind from the cross-shaped AOE pattern when at 85% HP has been removed.
- The attack pattern where Irusan would run across the battle area and shoot a whirlwind towards the player from the cross-shaped AOE pattern that occurs when Irusan is at 35% HP has been removed.
- Fixed the issue where the camera will lock on while performing the cross-shaped AOE pattern.
- Fixed an issue where certain characters would miss some of their attacks when Irusan started the cross-shaped AOE pattern by adjusting the colliding section between the characters and Irusan.
- [Before] Set to not collide with characters once the pattern starts until Irusan moves to the center and slam the spear to the ground to create the cross-shaped AOE pattern.
- [After] Set to not collide with characters once the pattern starts until Irusan moves to the center.
5) The Sanctuary of Reconstruction
- Made changes so Emmett does not use the body spinning attack consecutively.
- The attack pattern of destroying Emmett's armor with a hook when his weak spot is exposed has been modified so that it only needs to be destroyed one time in order for Emmett to enter their knockdown (groggy) state.
- To make it easier to know you should destroy the armor when exposing its weak spots, a status effect that explains How to use the grappling hook has been now granted (Destroy Emmett's armor!).
- This status effect does not grant any special effects, but instead provides instructions on how to destroy Emmett's Armor.
- The exposure time of Emmett's weak spots has been adjusted.
- The pulling force of Emmett's attack where he spins and pulls the player has been adjusted to be weaker than before.
- The moving distance of Emmett's spinning and charge attacks has been reduced.
- Fixed an issue with Emmett's attacks where he would follow the target player until right before the attack and turn excessively.
- Fixed a bug when sometimes, despite successfully destroying Emmett's armor during Emmett's weak spot exposure pattern, Emmett wouldn't enter knockdown (groggy) state and instead do a powerful spinning attack.
- The attack range and duration of Emmett's attack pattern of slamming his arm to the ground after 1 slash and 2 spinning attacks are adjusted to be approximately 77%.
- Modified the status effect description that appears during the pattern of destroying Emmett's armor with a hook when his weak spot is exposed to be more concise.
6. Sidhe Palace
- Some of Bres' attacks that looked awkward because of turning or moving too far have been fixed.
- The ready action and projectile when casting the instant death skill have been fixed to be more noticeable.
- Fixed an issue with some of Bres' attacks where the effects didn't match the hit box.
- Attack where Bres jumps to 12 o'clock and attacks with 9 sword aura strikes.
- Spreading attack that comes after Bres teleports to the center when HP is below 90%.
- Sword aura attack that comes after two or three consecutive attacks.
- A ranged attack that moves forward with a slight curve.
- Fixed an issue so players no longer suffer from Excessive Bleeding status effect after being hit by Bres' sword swinging pattern at 12 o'clock of the map.
- Separately, gaining the Excessive Bleeding status effect when being hit by the gathering power attack pattern will remain the same.
7. False Confession
- All the remaining sand winds have been modified to disappear after defeating Spinos.
- Fixed an issue so Spinos doesn't use his jump attack pattern consecutively.
- Fixed an issue where Spinos' attacks looked unnatural due to the actual moving distance being longer than the motion.

- Spinos' Sandstorm pattern that appears in the later phases has been modified as follows:
- When stones and pillars are falling, they have been changed to make it easier to predict when they fall through the effect that appears on the ground.
- The size of the safe zone that appears after the pillars fall has been increased by 30%.

3) Story
-
Changed the categories of the Redeemers stories Hero's Sword, Moon Regeneration, Tempering the Sword, and Nine Lives from Content - Story to Key Story.
|
Developer's Notes: In the past, the Redeemers stories were naturally exposed with Story Hints during main story, which allowed you to enter the Redeemers battle naturally. However, there was a problem with the first Sea of Reflection having a difficulty spike, which often resulted in many incoming players losing that battle. To address this issue, we changed Redeemers battles to content stories so that it's optional to enter them during progression, but this had the side effect of making it harder to find Redeemers stories, which in turn made it harder to get into Redeemers battles themselves. With this Growth Area improvement, we're easing the difficulty of the Sea of Reflection battle on Normal difficulty, along with other improvements to lower the barrier to entry to Redeemers, we're making the Redeemers stories Key Stories to ensure you experience important Redeemers content as you progress through the game. |

- The part where Status Effects (for both common and character exclusive Status Effects) are displayed can be moved to the desired position by dragging the cursor.
- Added an Auto-Equip button to the Battle Inventory UI (Shortcut Key I).
- If a better piece equipment exists than the one that's currently equipped, the button will show a blue notification.
- When clicking the Auto-Equip button, the Auto-Equip popup will be exposed, showing the estimated stats that will change after auto-equipping.
- Other stats that increase alongside other stats such as STR, AGI, INT, and WIL are not included in the estimate.
- Auto-Equip notifications can be turned off via the Disable Auto-Equip Notification checkbox in the exposed popup.
