NEW & IMPROVEMENTS
CLASS CHANGES

Kunoichi Awakening is a melee DPS and an assassin. However, because she could easily maintain Super Armor to deal damage safely despite her assassination potential, we have adjusted her skill combos to leave appropriate openings, bringing her more in line with her intended role.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Forward Guard.

- Changed so that Stamina does not recover during the skill motion.
- Changed so that defensive effects are removed immediately after attacking.

- Changed Stiffness on hits to apply in PvE only.
- Changed so that the character becomes visible immediately after moving.

- Added Stiffness on hits.
- Removed Down Smash.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Super Armor when using the skill.

Lahn Awakening has been performing exceptionally well, driven by the increased utility of Deadly Dance since the last update. To address this, we changed Deadly Dance's required resource to Stamina and increased its cooldown, encouraging more careful use of this dashing skill.

- Changed the resource consumed upon skill use from WP to 200 Stamina.
- Changed the cooldown: 6 sec → 8 sec.
- Adjusted the PvP damage for the following skills:
| Skill | Before | After |
| Flow: Mangler | 44.69% damage in PvP only | 40.5% damage in PvP only |
| Deadly Dance III | 36.93% damage in PvP only | 34% damage in PvP only |
|
Tailspin III
|
37.04% damage in PvP only | 35.3% damage in PvP only |

Striker Awakening is a melee DPS that excels at disrupting enemy formations with Battle Cry. While absorbing enemy damage is necessary during these disruptions, he has been able to sustain combat with high survivability even outside of these situations. Therefore, we are making adjustments to reduce his overall survivability.
- Changed the Recover HP per hit:+98 → +200.

- Removed the Recover HP effect when using the skill.

- Removed the Recover HP effect when using the skill.

- Changed the Recover HP per hit: +180 → +224.

- Removed the Recover HP per hit.
- Changed All Evasion Increase: +36 → +24.

We have adjusted Mystic Awakening's Dragon's Rip to address situations where opponents were pulled in and left with no way to escape.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Forward Guard.
- Improved the skill to allow faster combos into Flash Step, Silent Step, and Mass Destruction during the skill.

Drakania Succession is intended to thrive on the battlefield, leveraging the relentless healing of Succession: Markthanan's Heart to continue fighting.

- Changed Stockpile ions in your shard on hits: 6 → 9.

- Changed Stockpile ions in your shard on inner attack hits: 3 → 6.

- Changed Stockpile 3 ions into your shard on hits: 3 → 6.

- Added Stockpile 3 ions into your shard on hits.

- Changed the cooldown: 12 sec → 10 sec.

Unlike other classes, Woosa's movement skills functioned differently depending on whether she moved forward, backward, left, or right. With this update, we have standardized how her movement skills work, making directional movement more intuitive.


- Changed Chain: Flitting Step to activate after Yangban Step.
- Changed Flitting Step to be available during cooldown.
- Accordingly, Chain: Flitting Step can now activate in place of Yangban Step or Flitting Step when those skills are on cooldown.
- The way Yangban Step, Flitting Step, and Chain: Flitting Step activate when comboed with each other has been changed in line with the changes above.
- Changed so that Stamina does not recover until the skill motion ends during Yangban Step, Flitting Step, or Chain: Flitting Step.
- Changed the Stamina cost: 250 → 200.
- [Drakania] Impale - Fixed the issue where grapple-exclusive visual effects were occasionally invisible to other Adventurers when comboing into the skill after Storm Maul.
- [Maehwa] Chain: Moonrise - Fixed the issue where the sound effects in the skill demo video in the Skill (K) UI sounded unnatural.
- [Mystic] Dragon's Rip - Fixed the issue where the pull effect did not immediately disappear even when hit by CC during the skill.

Central Market Max Price Adjustments
We have adjusted the Central Market max prices for certain items for the same reason as the April official server update: to address items that are rarely traded because their Central Market prices are too low compared to the cost of obtaining or crafting them.

- Following the price adjustments, all pending orders and listings for the items below were reset during the May 28, 2026 (Thu) maintenance.

- After: The ship does not become overloaded, and sailing skills are available.

UI
Item Drop Cheer Animation Removal
Previously, when you obtained a valuable item during your adventure, your character would cheer. While this clearly indicated that you had obtained a valuable item, the animation could put players in danger when it triggered unexpectedly in the heat of battle.
- Improved the system so that a notification is displayed instead of the character performing a cheer animation when obtaining high-grade loot during PvE.
- However, characters will still perform the cheer animation as before when obtaining high-grade items through other means, such as opening a box.
- The notification UI position can be adjusted through Edit UI.

- Added reward details to the War of the Roses application UI.

- Improved Find My Item to open when pressing CTRL+F even while the Quests UI is open.
