---

The maximum clan level has been increased from level 5 to level 8.

Clan Organization

When the clan level is 5 and above, additional members may be added by creating an Academy, Royal Guard, and Order of Knights. The organizational structure of the clan and number of clan members are as follows:     The maximum number of members within an Academy is 20. The maximum number of members in a Royal Guard is 20, and up to a total of 2 Royal Guard units may be created. The maximum number of members in an Order of Knights is 10, and up to 4 Orders of Knights may be created.

Upgrading Clan Levels

The requirements for upgrading the clan level are as follows:

Clan Level	SP	Adena	Required Items	Reputation Score	Minimum Number of Clan Members
1	30,000	650,000	-	0	1 or more
2	150,000	2,500,000	-	0	1 or more
3	500,000	0	Blood Mark	0	1 or more
4	1,400,000	0	Alliance Manifesto	0	1 or more
5	3,500,000	0	Seal of Aspiration	0	1 or more
6	0	0	-	10,000	30 or more
7	0	0	-	20,000	80 or more
8	0	0	-	40,000	120 or more

Royal Guards and Order of Knights

When a clan leader upgrades the clan’s level by consuming the clan’s reputation score, the leader may create sub-units called Royal Guards and Orders of Knights.

Requirements for Creating a Royal Guard

When a clan reaches level 6, a Royal Guard may be created. Upon creation of a Royal Guard, one of the clan members must be appointed an administrator. Up to 2 Royal Guards may be created. The maximum number of members in a Royal Guard is 20.

Requirements for Creating an Order of Knights

When a clan reaches level 7, an Order of Knights may be created. Upon creation of an Order of Knights, one of the clan members must be appointed as an administrator. Up to 2 Orders of Knights may be created under one Royal Guard. The maximum number of members in an Order of Knights is 10.

Disbandment

Once created, Royal Guards and Orders of Knights cannot be dissolved unless the clan is dissolved. When the administrator of each unit withdraws from their clan, the unit remains, and the administrator position becomes vacant. In this case, the clan leader must appoint a new administrator. The reappointment of the unit administrator can be done through an NPC that is in charge of clan-related activities.

Organizational Structure

The organizational structure of the units are as follows:

Rights Within the Clan

• The clan name of the sub-unit should be the same as the clan.
• The clan crest and insignia should be also the same as the clan.
• Sub-units can use the same channel as the clan for clan chat and alliance chat.
• Sub-units can use the same clan hall, castle, and bulletin board as the clan. (However, if the clan leader changes the rights settings, this right may no longer apply.)

Sub-units can participate in a clan war and siege war under the same conditions as the clan. Which organizations you can invite a new clan member to join is determined by what organization you belong to yourself. When inviting someone, you can now see only those organizations to which you can invite someone. For example, Royal Guard members cannot invite a new clan member as a direct clan member but can invite a new clan member only to Royal Guard/Order of Knights/Academy.

Reputation Points

When a clan reaches level 5 or more, the clan may accumulate clan reputation points which are earned through various clan activities. The world clan ranking based on the clan reputation score may be viewed in the Adventurer's Guide Book. The reputation score increases in the following cases:

• A clan academy member completes a 2nd class transfer
• Your clan takes over a castle in a siege (an indecisive victory in a siege war does not increase the reputation score)
• Your clan holds or defends a castle in a siege (only the clan that owns the defended castle/clan hall earns points)
• Your clan acquires a siege-enabled clan hall (the reputation score increases more when taking over a clan hall owned by another clan)
• A clan member takes first place in the Festival of Darkness (the reputation points are distributed in proportion to the number of clan members among the highest-ranking party members)
• Each time a clan member becomes a Hero
• A clan quest is completed.
• By killing an enemy in a clan war (under the condition of mutual war declaration) or siege; however, when the other side’s reputation score is 0 or below, your clan cannot acquire any reputation points from them

The reputation score decreases in the following cases:

• A clan-owned castle or siege-enabled hall is taken over (when a clan’s reputation score is in the negative (-), the score may still be decreased)
• A clan’s level is upgraded
• A clan skill is learned
• Item(s) are purchased using a clan's reputation score
• A clan member is killed by an enemy in a clan war (under the condition of mutual war declaration) or siege; however, when the opposing side’s reputation score is 0 or below, your clan’s reputation score does not decrease

Clan members may purchase an A-grade Apella Armor Set with their clan reputation score. The related NPCs are located in the Town of Aden and Rune Township.

Clan Skills

New clan skills that can be applied to all clan members have been added.

Once a clan skill is mastered, it can be permanently used until the clan is dissolved. However, if the clan’s reputation score becomes 0 or below, the skill will no longer work until the reputation score returns to a positive number. When a clan member reaches a status whereas the clan skill can be applied, that clan skill is displayed in the player’s skill window and the skill’s effects are then usable. As the clan’s level increases, additional skills become available. In order to master a clan skill, a clan needs to accumulate special items related to raid bosses and have a sufficient reputation score. If a clan’s reputation score reaches -1 or below, it will be unable to learn clan skills, even ones that do not require a reputation score. The new clan skills are as follows:

Skill Name	Required Clan Level	Description
Clan Vitality	5	Increases clan members' Max HP. It only effects those who are of an Heir class or higher.
Clan Spirituality	6	Increases clan members' Max CP. It only effects those who are of a Baron class or higher.

Clan Academy

An Academy system has been added in order to ease game play for new players in addition to creating a method for long-term clan expansion.

Creation Requirements

Clans level 5 and above may create an Academy.

Conditions for Joining

Any character, level 39 or below, who has not yet joined a clan and has not yet completed the second class transfer may join an Academy. The maximum number of members in an Academy is 20.

How to Create an Academy

The clan leader can create an Academy through NPCs who are in charge of clan-related activities (a High Priest, Grand Master, etc.).

Benefits and Withdrawal of Academy Members

When an Academy member completes his/her second class transfer, the member will receive a commemorative item. The Grand Master NPC of the member’s own class will award the commemorative item automatically upon the completion of the second class transfer. The member is then automatically withdrawn from the Academy, and will not receive a penalty for re-joining a clan.

Academy Members’ Rights

An Academy member’s clan name is the same as the main clan name, but is displayed in yellow. Academy members may use clan chat and alliance chat. By default, Academy members may use the clan hall and castle owned by the clan just like any other clan member. However, the clan leader does have the option to set it up so that Academy members may not use them. Academy members may use the clan warehouse and clan bulletin board just like any other clan member. However, the clan leader does have the option to set it up so that Academy members may not use them. The rights below cannot be bestowed upon Academy members:

• Join a clan or be dismissed
• Title management, crest management, master management, level management, bulletin board administration
• Clan war, right to dismiss, set functions
• Auction, manage taxes, attack/defend registration, mercenary management

When in a clan war or a siege with Academy members:

• Experience penalties apply even when killed by opposing members of a clan in a mutual war.
• Academy members cannot see an enemy mark displayed on the enemy clan members’ character name.
• Academy members have no relationship during a clan war or siege war.

Sponsors

Academy members who have a sponsor have their names displayed in yellow, but the names of those without sponsors are displayed in white. Clan members who have master management rights may appoint other clan members as sponsors for Academy members. Alert messages indicating their logged in status will be displayed for Academy members and their sponsors. The relationship between Academy members and their sponsors may only be one-on-one. Clan members who have master management rights may dissolve the relationship between an Academy member and their sponsor. Related Quests Academy members can acquire a D-grade armor set through a quest that may be conducted with ordinary clan members. Only Academy members and graduates of an Academy may wear the armor set acquired through this quest. When withdrawing from an Academy, after acquiring the armor set, the armor will not be unequipped automatically. However, once you unequip the armor it cannot be worn again.

Clan Rights and Delegation

Many different kinds of rights have been added and modified for clan leaders to bestow upon clan members. Clan leaders need to pay extra attention when they bestow these rights to their clan members especially when related to things such as clan reputation points, clan member joining/withdrawal, and rights related to the clan’s castle and manor. New rights include:

• Dismiss: the leader can expel clan members.
• Master Rights: the leader can appoint or remove a master.
• Manage Ranks: the leader can set the rights level of each clan member.
• Manage Levels: the leader can set the clan castle and clan manor management levels.

Modified rights include:

• Edit Emblem: the leader can register or delete the clan emblem or clan insignia.
• Clan Hall Privileges - Use Functions: can use the clan hall function.
• Clan Hall Privileges - Set Functions: can set the clan hall function.
• Castle Rights - Manor Administration: can set the manor.
• Castle Rights - Manage Taxes: can set the castle tax and deposit/withdraw the tax.
• Castle Rights - Manage Mercenaries: can hire a mercenary.
• Castle Rights - Set Functions: can set the castle function. (Reinforce castle gates, castle walls, and set a trap device.)

The clan leader may assign rights related to clan halls and castles even when the clan doesn’t own one at the time. The “Edit Privileges” function has been added for the assignment of simple rights. A clan leader may setup clan rights in advance and according to rank. To assign rights to clan members by rank:

1. In the Clan Member list, double-click on a character name.
2. Click the “Change Rank” button in the Clan Window menu and bestow the desired rank.

Clan Leadership Transfer

A clan leader may transfer their rights to other clan members. The leader must request the clan leader transfer from an NPC who is in charge of clan activities. The new clan leader will assume their new role during the next regularly scheduled maintenance time (10:30 CDT on Tuesdays). (The clan leader transfer should still be completed even when the server is down unexpectedly.) A clan leader transfer may be cancelled anytime prior to the regular maintenance time.

Clan Window

Many different functions have been added for easier and more systematic clan-related activities and as such, the related interface has also been improved. Double click on a clan member’s name in the member list to open a menu window displaying the rights given to that member.

Selection tabs have been added to the clan window so that you may see the members of the main clan, Academy, Royal Guard, and Order of Knights. In order to invite somebody to join a clan, click the “Invite” button and select the organization within the clan you wish to invite the person to. When clicking the Edit Emblem button, the menu window where you may register or delete the clan emblem or clan insignias is displayed. An information window to view clan war information by status has been added as well as an Edit Privileges window.

Other Changes

The maximum number of clans in an alliance is three. The penalty given upon dismissal or withdrawal from a clan has been shortened from 5 days to 1 day. Clan Hall Managers now show the amount that will be deducted from the clan warehouse and the date the transaction will occur.

You may view the Olympiad score from the previous period of games through the Grand Olympiad Manager.

When an Olympiad game ends in a draw, the Olympiad points for PCs on both sides are now reduced.

A buff is provided in games between PCs of the same class and a Noblesse Gate Pass is rewarded to the winner.

Hero skills and clan skills cannot be used in an Olympiad game.

When there are multiple 1st place winners from each class, the character that has won the most games becomes a Hero. When the number of games won is the same, then the character who has the highest winning percentage becomes a Hero. When Olympiad points, number of wins, and winning percentage are all the same, then there will be no Hero in each class. However, the basic requirements to be a Hero, which are that the character participate in 5 games and should have at least one victory, remain the same as in Chronicle 4.

When an Olympiad match cannot be held due to a lack of combatants, the system will notify you of the game delay with an appropriate message.

When being moved to the Olympiad Stadium in the middle of summoning a servitor or cubic, the skill in use is terminated automatically.

When moved to an Olympiad Stadium with the automatic use of Soulshots/Spiritshots or Beast Soulshots/Spiritshots enabled, the automatic use is cancelled.

Hero Skills

New Hero skills have been added. Hero skills may be acquired through the Grand Olympiad Manager upon becoming a Hero; however, you cannot use a Hero skill when in subclass status.

[ Rune Territory | Schuttgart Territory ]

New hunting grounds and dungeons have been added to Rune Territory, the Orc areas, and Schuttgart Territory. These will also connect the Dwarf areas to the mainland.

Rune Territory

Three dungeons have been added to the Rune Territory.

The Pagan Temple

The Pagan Temple is located in Rune Township. Some of Rune’s nobles worship the devil Triole, one of the “4 Kings”, and have built this temple in a large area in the underground of Rune Township.

In order to enter the temple, you must be one of the Pagans or make an oath that you will be making an offering to Triole. The monsters appearing here are at levels 80 to 87, some of the highest level monsters in the world.

The Stakato Nest

The Stakato Nest is located to the east of the Swamp of Screams. In this underground cave, there resides the Stakato Queen (who is almost at the end of her life) and her followers. The Stakato Proconsul, an elite warrior class of the Stakato, is born and raised here. The monsters appearing here are at levels 72 to 80, and present new battle challenges to players.

The Monastery of Silence

The Monastery of Silence is located to the east of the Valley of Saints and is at odds with The Pagan Temple. This dungeon was built by the priests of Einhasad.

The Monastery has two entrances, and it is possible to enter from both ways since it is adjacent to Goddard and the border of Rune. The monsters appearing here are at levels 80 to 87, some of the highest level monsters in the world.

Schuttgart Territory

Six hunting grounds have been added to Schuttgart Territory.

The Frozen Labyrinth

The Frozen Labyrinth is located southeast of Schuttgart Castle and is a field hunting ground composed of many valleys. The structure of the valleys is complicated, much like a labyrinth, and is connected to the The Ice Queen’s Castle. You may hunt solo or in a group in this area. The monsters appearing here are at levels 53 to 63, and mean business.

The Den of Evil

The Den of Evil is located south of Schuttgart Castle. In this area, Ragna Orcs are expanding their power by using evil spirits in league with the Baranka Shamans.

You may hunt solo or in a group in this area. The monsters appearing here are at levels 40 to 50.

The Plunderous Plains

The Plunderous Plains are located east of Schuttgart Castle. This area was once a very important transportation hub that connected Dwarven villages and the Town of Schuttgart by railroad. This vile and unlawful area is now full of brigands who target Dwarven merchants. There are field hunting ground here with monsters at level 30 to 40.

The Ice Queen’s Castle

The Ice Queen’s Castle is located southeast of Schuttgart Castle, and may be entered through the Frozen Labyrinth. Only a party of two or more members can enter. All party members must possess 10 Silver Hemocytes gained through a quest.

This hunting ground is based on a timed attack concept, and only one party may enter every 35 minutes. If the raid boss is not attacked and defeated within the given time, then the party is transported back outside. The monsters inside the castle are levels 55 to 60. Restarting is impossible once you are in the Ice Queen’s Castle; even if the server goes down, players must meet the entry conditions and start over from the beginning.

The Crypts of Disgrace

The Crypts of Disgrace are located southwest of Schuttgart Castle. These crypts are part of a passageway that leads to Schuttgart Castle from the Orc Village. Players may hunt solo or in a small groups here. The monsters appearing here are at levels 25 to 32.

The Pavel Ruins

The Pavel Ruins are located south of the Town of Schuttgart. Here the giant Pavel used to study weather phenomenon.

The ruins are now under control of a mad dwarf scientist known as Dr. Chaos. The monsters appearing in these ruins are at levels 46 to 54.

[ Frintezza | Life Crystals ]

Monsters with unique battle characteristics have been added in accordance with player level increases and other improvements to the game.

The monsters can have the following new abilities when fighting within any of the hunting grounds:

• May use a Healing Potion in the middle of a battle.
• May use counter-skills to attack when being attacked with certain skills.
• May summon a distant attacking player to them.
• May pick up dropped items on the ground at certain time intervals.

Monsters that present many different abilities based on various battle situations have also been added.

Raid Boss Monsters

The abilities of a raid boss monster has increased overall, and the rewards have also increased.

Just like the raid bosses, boss-ranked monsters (i.e., Ant Queen, Core, Orfen, and Zaken) and their monster followers now use petrification or silence when they are attacked by players 9 or more levels higher, or if they are using skills.

Raid monsters have been added to the newly added territories in Chronicle 5.

Frintezza

Frintezza, the son of Baium of Elmoreden, has been added as a new boss monster.

Frintezza was granted eternal life from a devil, and he presents a unique battle style and characteristic than that of any other existing boss monster.

Location and Entry

Frintezza resides in the last tomb beyond a secret wall that is connected to the Imperial Tomb. In order to enter, players must satisfy the entry conditions through a related quest that begins with the Nameless Spirit within the Four Sepulchers.

A minimum of four parties may enter; five parties at most can enter. These parties must be organized through a command channel and the command channel leader must possess Frintezza's Magic Force Field Removal Scroll.

The Last Imperial Tomb

The Last Imperial Tomb is made up of a long passageway and a room where Frintezza resides. In the passageway connected to Frintezza’s room, you can gain many items that will be useful in your battle with Frintezza.

Life Crystals

Rewards from the raid monsters have been diversified, and a new process of item assembly has been added.

Many different kinds of Life Crystals may be acquired from hunting raid monsters at level 40 and above. These crystals can be assembled through an Adventure Guild or the Adventure Guild Manager to create C Grade, B Grade, and A Grade items (weapons, armor, accessories, hair accessories, etc.).

When a clan that owns a castle hunts a certain raid monster, an Adventure Guild Manager who can assemble A-grade weapons and armor appears in a castle town that is owned by the clan. Certain Life Crystals, dropped by raid monsters, may be changed to the Life Crystal necessary for assembling A-grade weapons and armor through an Adventure Guild Manager.

You may also gamble by trading a Life Crystal for other items with an Adventure Guild NPC.

[ Instant Effect Items | Demonic Sword Zariche | Armor Set Bonuses | Adventurer’s Guide Book | New Items | Recipes ]

Instant Effect Items

In order to maximize the efficiency of solo hunting, instant effect items have been added. Instant effect items are only dropped in areas set as solo hunting grounds. When hunting monsters in these areas, instant effect items, such as items to increase your HP/MP regeneration or P. Atk./M. Atk are dropped.

The instant effect items are as follows:

• Herb of Life: recovers HP.
• Herb of Mana: recovers MP.
• Herb of Strength: temporarily increases P. Atk.
• Herb of Magic: temporarily increases M. Atk.

Herbs of Life and Herbs of Mana do not recover HP and MP at any standard rate; they recover a certain % of total HP and MP of the character that picks them up. Herbs of Strength and Herbs of Magic have overlapping effects with existing skills that have similar effects and their duration time is 2 minutes.

Instant effect items cannot be stored in inventory and will immediately take effect when they are picked up.

If an instant effect item is dropped by a monster and not picked up within 15 seconds, they will disappear.

When a party member picks up an instant effect item while they are hunting, the effect will be applied instantly to the person who picked it up regardless of the party’s looting rules.

The Demonic Sword Zariche

The weapon of slaughter, The Demonic Sword Zariche (hereafter Zariche), was once used by the Demon Bremmnon, one of the four demon kings.

Drop Rate and Possession Rules

• All monsters in the world have the potential to drop it. However, only one of these exists in the whole world.

• Once obtained, the character’s karma becomes maximized. Unless Zariche leaves the character, the character will always have karma.
• When a character acquires Zariche, it is equipped automatically and is impossible to un-equip.

Wars and Parties

The following will be applied to the character who possesses Zariche in PvP, clans wars, and in parties.

• A player carrying Zariche cannot attack players that are level 20 or lower. In the same respect, players must be level 21 or higher to attack the character wielding Zariche.
• When striking (excluding magic and physical skills) players, including Heroes, their CP is instantly reduced to 0.
• When a Hero strikes (excluding magic and physical skills) a character wielding Zariche, the CP of that character is instantly reduced to 0.

• A player wielding Zariche cannot join a party with other players.
• If a player acquires Zariche while in a party, that character is automatically withdrawn from that party.
• The player wielding Zariche cannot use the party matching system or command channel.
• The player wielding Zariche cannot give or accept buffs and may not be healed or heal other players. However, he or she may use buffs and heal themselves.
• The player wielding Zariche may summon a pet/servitor, but may not ride a pet.

Olympiad and Heroes

• The player wielding Zariche cannot participate in the Olympiad.
• When a Hero acquires Zariche, skills designed for Heroes may still be used.

Ability and Life Span

• When with a player wielding Zariche kills another player, Zariche’s lifespan shortens but the swords abilities increase.
• Zariche causes its wielder to recognize everyone involved in a siege war as enemies.
• When a player wielding Zariche dies and the sword’s abilities have been enhanced, the sword will be dropped and its abilities will return to normal.

Armor Set Bonuses

Additional effects will be bestowed when complete armor sets are enchanted to +6 and above. Each individual item in the set will need to be enchanted to +6 or above in order to benefit from the new effects.

These effects differ depending on each individual armor type or grade.

Adventurer’s Guide Book

An Adventurer’s Guide Book has been added for quest information, hunting grounds, raid boss monsters, areas, etc.

Raid scores and ranking can be viewed in the raid information window. Raid score is calculated in one month cycles, and when a new cycle starts, the score from the previous period is initialized.

The new period starts the 1st of every month at 05:00. The previous score and ranking will be displayed for 1 week, and after one week the information of the current period will be displayed.

The book can be purchased from a grocer in each village.

The effect of the Courage Charm does not overlap with other buffs and is applied separately. The effect lasts about 2 hours.

It can be purchased from Trader Ralford in the Ivory Tower located in Oren Territory. Courage Charms may be exchanged or traded.

Fishing King Championship Tournament Event

The Fishing King Championship Tournament event has been added, and gives an award to the person who catches the biggest fish. This event is held at special times and will be announced when it begins.

Night Fishing

Night fishing can be done from 12:00 a.m. to 06:00 a.m. (game time). Game time can be viewed by typing /time.

Luminous Bait is necessary for night fishing and may be purchased through a Fishermen Guild Member. Luminous Bait can only be used at night. When fishing at night and using Luminous Bait, high quality (high-grade) fish will be tempted to bite.

A high-grade fish can use deceptive skills unlike ordinary fish. When a high-grade fish uses its deceptive skills, reeling and pumping must be used in the opposite way in order to reduce the fish’s HP.

Depending on its type, a high-grade fish may reward you with various “Fish Scale” drops. If you collect enough “Fish Scale” of the same type, you may bring them to a Fishermen Guild Member for additional rewards.

Depending on your fishing mastery level, the types of high-grade fish that can be caught and rewarded fish scales will differ.

Fisherman’s Potions

A new item, the “Fisherman’s Potion”, has been added.

Fisherman’s Potion

The Fisherman’s Potion temporarily reduces a player’s fishing mastery level to catch a fish at a desired level. The potion may be purchased from a Fishermen Guild Member.

If the potion's level is higher than the user’s fishing mastery level, the potion has no effect.

The effect of using a Fisherman’s Potion lasts 60 minutes.

Fishing Potion

The Fishing Potion restores a player’s fishing mastery level, which was lowered by the Fisherman’s Potion, back to the previous level.

The Fishing Potion may be purchased from a Fishermen Guild Member.

The Fishing Potion can take effect even though the Fisherman’s Potion was not used previously, therefore please exercise caution when using it.

Changes Related to Previous Quests

The way that NPCs have exclamation points over their heads as a way of giving quest information has changed.

Exclamation points used to be shown for low-level quests even to higher level players regardless of the recommended level for conducting the quest. The exclamation point will now only be shown when a player is at the suitable level and condition to take on the quest. Generally, an orange-colored exclamation point will be displayed for a quest that fits the recommended level, but quests that can be conducted regardless of clan, pet, or recommended level will display a sky-blue exclamation point.

Exclamation points for quests are now distinguished in two ways.

• Orange Exclamation Point: Ordinary quests, class transfer quests, etc.
• Sky-blue Exclamation Point: Clan quests, pet quests, etc.

This setting may be changed by clicking on the lock icon located at the bottom of the shortcut window.

Multiparty Command Interface

The conditions for opening a command channel have been changed so that clan members who are not clan leaders may open the command channel when the clan skill “Clan Imperium” is activated.

A function that teleports all party members of a command channel at the same time when they enter into the area for a boss war has been added.

In a boss war (Antharas, Valakas, Baium), the party with a pre-designated command channel leader and has satisfied all other conditions will be bestowed the rights to pick up items for a certain period of time.

The conditions to gain item priority rights are as follows:

• Antharas - When the leader of command channel with 255 members or more teleports.
• Valakas - When the leader of command channel with 99 members or more teleports.
• Baium - When the leader of command channel with 54 members or more awakes Baium.

Party Matching

The size of the chat window in the party room has expanded.

The character list window has been enhanced to include whisper and invite functions when used in conjunction with the party matching window.

Other Changes

A quantity of items may now be moved all at once by holding down the Alt key and dragging them at the same time.

The current Announcement is now displayed in the system message window.

A “Find Private Store” button has been added to the Action Window.

Pet type is now displayed in the Target Window under detailed information.

The problem with enchanted items not being displayed properly in the pet’s inventory has been resolved.

The game pad shortcut window has been improved.

The item tool tip regarding items and how to use their effects has been enhanced.

The Cloak slot has been removed from inventory; instead there are now two head accessory slots.

The resurrection window will no longer disappear when a dead character presses the Enter key while the resurrection confirmation window is open.

The looting time for boss monsters’ drops has been increased from 15 seconds to 5 minutes, therefore characters or parties that didn’t contribute at all to the battle cannot acquire any items for 5 minutes.

[ New Castles and Clan Halls | Wild Beast Reserve | Fortress of the Dead | Rainbow Springs Chateau ]

Rune Castle and Schuttgart Castle

Rune Castle and Schuttgart Castle have been added to the Rune Territory and Schuttgart Territory respectively.

Rune Castle is a royal castle like Aden Castle, and it receives a tribute from Goddard Castle and Schuttgart Castle.

New Clan Halls in Rune and Schuttgart

Seven contracted clan halls have been added to the Rune Township and four contracted clan halls have been added to the Town of Schuttgart.

The clan halls in the Rune Township are A-Grade clan halls; the clan halls in the Town of Schuttgart are B-Grade clan halls.

Wild Beast Reserve

The Wild Beast Reserve is north of the Beast Farm and similar to the Bandit Stronghold’s clan hall battle system; it is a contested hideout. The clan must be level 4 or higher to participate.

Only the first five clans to arrive may participate in the contest after qualifying (A Grand Plan for Taming Wild Beasts quest) and speaking to a messenger NPC at the entrance of the Wild Beast Reserve.

The A Grand Plan for Taming Wild Beasts quest may only last for one hour prior to the start of the clan hall war.

Clan members who want to participate in the contest have to register with the messenger NPC and have a maximum of 18 members participate.

When a player dies during a clan hall war, he/she is resurrected at the restart point and must return to the battlefield through a gatekeeper who is in that area.

There are monsters only found in the Wild Beast Reserve, and they are easier to tame than the ones in the Beast Farm.

Fortress of the Dead

The Fortress of the Dead is located southeast of the Rune Township and is a contested hideout similar to the siege style of the Devastated Castle clan hall. It is of the highest grade among all contested clan halls.

Only a clan level 4 or higher may participate.

Siege registration is open up to two hours before a war and is scheduled through the messenger NPC outside of the clan hall.

The siege war follows the same rules as Devastated Castle. The siege war goes on for one hour, and the clan that contributes the most to killing Lidia von Hellmann takes possession of the clan hall. If the followers of Lidia von Hellmann, Alfred von Hellmann, and Giselle von Hellmann are killed, the clan hall war will be a lot easier.

The siege war ends upon the death of Lidia von Hellmann; just as in Devastated Castle, and if there is no clan that has killed the applicable NPC, the clan hall is under the NPC’s possession until the next siege war.

The clan that owned the clan hall previously will be automatically registered in the next clan hall war.

The possessing clan hall leader can ride on a wyvern.

Rainbow Springs Chateau

Rainbow Springs Chateau is located north of the Hot Springs area. A new style of siege war has been applied to it, which is different from previous contested clan hall war styles.

In order to own the clan hall, winning is decided through a mini-game. Only a clan level 3 or higher is allowed to participate and the maximum number of clans is four. Participants may have 5 or more member in their party.

How to Participate

A clan leader in possession of a “Rainbow Springs Clan Hall War Decree” may register to participate through a messenger NPC up to one hour before the contest begins. The top four clans, owning the highest number of Rainbow Springs Clan Hall War Decrees amongst them, will be chosen to compete and their clan leaders notified through a system message.

Rainbow Springs Clan Hall War Decrees may be obtained by fishing in the Hot Springs area of Goddard. However, a player must use Hot Springs Bait for fishing bait.

If a participating clan requests disorganization in the middle of a siege war registration period, the siege war participation registration is automatically cancelled. However, the certificates are not returned at this time.

A participating clan may cancel its participation up until the end of the registration period. If this happens, the clan will only get back half of their submitted certificates.

The clan that owns the Rainbow Springs Chateau is automatically registered for the next contest. In this case, the top three clans, owning the highest number of Rainbow Springs Clan Hall War Decrees amongst them, will be chosen to compete.

Battle Method

A Rainbow Springs Chateau siege war is held at the east arena of Rainbow Springs.

After clans are selected to compete, the contest is comprised of a one-hour waiting period, a contest time of 58 minutes, and an end time of 2 minutes.

Registered clans must organize one party with five or more members, with their clan leader as the party leader. The party must move to the arena before the siege war starts and enter the arena through the Caretaker. The surrounding area of the arena is a Peaceful Zone.

Participating clans enter into different game fields respectively and through the Caretaker.

Upon entering the arena, all buffs that are active on all participating characters will be removed, and summoned pet/servitors will disappear and cannot be summoned back into the arena.

Once the contest begins, a Hot Springs Yeti and a Hot Springs Gourd appear in the center of the arena and treasure chests appear randomly throughout the arena.

The Hot Springs Yeti announces the game rules and helps guide players.

All of the Hot Springs Yeti’s shouts may be collected and then exchanged with/for various Hot Springs items. Text exchange or Hot Springs item use is only available to the clan leader and clan members.

Participants can break the spawned treasure chests in the arena and can acquire text passages. Text items cannot be exchanged; therefore to give them to other characters, they should be dropped first and then picked up.

Treasure Chests can only be damaged with your bare hands, however Mimics can be attacked with P. Atk and M. Atk.

When using Hot Springs Nectar, an Enraged Yeti is spawned at certain intervals and interrupts the game. The Enraged Yeti can be attacked with P. Atk. and M. Atk.

The Hot Springs items may be used when the Hot Springs Yeti is a target, and they can reduce the HP of the gourd, cast debuff on other teams, change the gourd, or recover.

The team that first destroys the Hot Springs Gourd wins the game. All the participants are then teleported outside of the arena after a 2-minute delay.

At the end of the game, a manager NPC appears and cleans the arena by picking up all the item drops.

The game continues even if the server goes down in the middle of the mini-game.

Sieging Rune Castle

The siege boss monster, Benom, has been added to Rune Castle’s underground prison.

Benom appears in the castle dungeon 24 hours before a siege war. The defending side can teleport to the dungeon and raid the monster until a siege begins.

If the defending side still hasn’t caught Benom before the siege war begins, Benom will appear near the throne in the inner castle when two or more Life Control Towers are destroyed in the middle of a siege. Benom will attack both the defending and attacking sides.

Other Changes

Due to the addition of the Rune and Schuttgart Castles, up to five sieges may now be waged at once.

Siege function administration is now only available during the Seven Signs seal validation period.

When a player from the winning side of the previous period tries to join the same group through a priest, the previously-deposited Seal Stones are automatically settled as Ancient Adena. By doing this, even though the player from the winning side joins the same group in the next competition period, the previous Seal Stones score will not accumulate.

During the seal validation period, the defeated side and players who have not rejoined may now enter the Dimensional Rift through the Gate Keeper Ziggurat at the entrance of the Seven Signs common dungeons. An amount of Adena must be paid.

When attempting to join a group through a priest during a competition period and if the player’s inventory weight/quantity is at 80% and above, he/she cannot join.

With the addition of Rune Castle and Schuttgart Castle, a Manor System will apply to the Rune, Orc, and Dwarf areas.

Previously, when a master was away from the point where a servitor killed a monster, other party members could still acquire the experience points that the servitor’s master was supposed to take. This problem has now been resolved.

An issue with experience point penalties, based on the level differences between party members, not being applied has been corrected.

Some servitors’ abilities have been changed slightly. Their fighting power remains similar to Chronicle 4.

When other players target a servitor, the servitor’s HP gauge can now be viewed.

When a servitor attacks a player, it receives a certain damage (P. Atk./ M. Atk.) penalty. (This penalty is not applied to monster hunting.)

Some servitors’ consumption rate of Beast Soulshots has been changed.

A servitor cannot be un-summoned in the middle of combat. (In Chronicle 4, it was impossible to summon but it was possible to un-summon the servitor.)

When riding on a Strider, potion and scroll effect buffs will no longer disappear.

Three tamable monsters, located within the Beast Farm clan hall, have been added: Tiny Baby Cougar, Tiny Baby Buffalo, Tiny Baby Kookaburra. Inside of a clan hall, monsters may be tamed with Golden Spice.

Little Harness has been added as Baby Pet armor. The Little Harness can be worn by Baby Pets (Baby Cougar, Baby Kookaburra, and Baby Buffalo) and can be purchased from Pet Managers in each town.

The game updater has a new look.

Snow or rain may appear in the Rune or Schuttgart territories. Weather Effects can be turned off in the Video Options.

When entering the game’s “no fly zone” while on a Wyvern, such as the Lair of Valakas, a warning message will be displayed. After a period of time, your character will die if you remain in this area while flying.

In the Game Option menu, GPU Animation and Overall Sound Mute functions have been added.

Old mail (over 90 days) in game will now be automatically deleted when the server restarts. However, restored mails in your inbox will continue to be maintained.

If a player is disconnected or restarts while in battle with Antharas, Zaken, Baium, Anakim, Lilith, Valakas, or Frintezza their character will be transported to the nearest town.  If the player disconnection is caused by a server crash, the player will not be returned to town upon login if they reconnect within 30 minutes.
