Chrono Ark Early Access 1.2 Updated!


What's up everyone!
We're happy to announce that Chrono Ark EA v1.2 has been released.
But first of all, we want to let you know why we're going through closed beta before the EA version update.
Us Chrono Ark devs don't speak English very well. Also, there are so many small bits here and there being added, modified, and removed in the same day.
For this reason, it is hard for us to make an official global closed beta in English. Sorry for that.

Now, let's dig into EA v1.2, shall we?
We have added and changed many elements including new skills, bosses, cursed monsters, and various equipment.
Let's look into it now!
[h2]Sacred Karaela[/h2]

This is a new boss of Stage 3, the White Graveyard!
[h2]Cursed Monsters[/h2]

Cursed monsters appear during combat!
Cursed monsters are very strong, but they leave bonus rewards after being defeated.
Also, you can remove their curse if you have a Lifting Scroll in your inventory during combat.
[h2]Lucy's Cat Outfit[/h2]

We added Lucy's Cat Outfit for players who are dedicating their effort and time in to our game!
You can purchase the skin from the vending machine at the Ark.

[h2]Identification Feature at the Store[/h2]
Now you can identify items at the store with a few gold.

[h2]Character Improvements[/h2]
Miss Chain
  • Removed Skill: 'Into Pieces!'.
  • New Skill: 'Fire Ground'
  • New Skill: 'Playing with Fire'
  • All other skills for Miss Chain have changed slightly.

We changed Miss Chain's skill set to have better synergy with the team and to protect them.

Hein
  • Removed Skill: 'Endure'
  • New Skill: 'Blood Reflux'
  • New Skill: 'Merciless Explosion'
  • All other skills for Hein have changed slightly.

Hein was a very simple character.
He was strong in general combat and weak against bosses.
Now you will find Hein inflicting lots of damage to bosses and surviving more incoming attacks.

  • Removed Skill: 'Double Armor'
  • New Skill: 'Innocent Armor'


Sizz
  • 'Help, Eve!': now has a more offensive effect.
  • 'Incise': Damage from additional attacks has reduced.

  • 'Chemical Weapon': Effect now remains until the end of the stage (next campfire).
  • Amount of overall party healing has reduced.


Silverstein
  • Base attack power has increased.

[h2]Modifications and Added Features[/h2]

New Keyword
  • Tracking: Missed attacks inflict half of the damage to the target(s).
  • Chain Heal: Heal an ally with the lowest health if this skill heals more than the target's healing gauge.


Expert Difficulty Only - 'Fixed Ability Cooldown' Feature
You cannot use a fixed ability for 2 turns after using it.

Improvements
- Added 22 new items.
- Reduced the difficulty of Golem and The Witch for difficulties easier than 'Normal'.
- Added 'Low Quality Mode'.
- Added extra visual effects for 'Secret Wreath'.
