New monsters have appeared in the wide-open steppes and along the refreshing Demi River of Serendia. Once defeated, some of these new monsters will grant powerful buffs that may turn the tides of battle.

Let’s take a look at the new monsters!

[h3]1. Goblin Thief[/h3]
The Goblin Thief is a monster that hides around the arena carrying stolen treasure on its back.

When attacked, the Goblin Thief will start chanting a spell to make its escape. You can take it down easily by using your crowd control (CC) skills while the goblin is still casting its spell. Otherwise, the Goblin Thief will get away when it finishes its cast.

Defeat the Goblin Thief to get much more silver compared to other monsters!

[h3]2. Ruins Golem[/h3]

The Ruins Golem normally remains stationary at its location. Defeating the Ruins Golem will split it into 2 more golems, and this process will repeat for a total of 3 times. This ultimately results in a total of 15 golems appearing. (1 + 2 + 4 + 8 = 15)

Defeating the Ruins Golem will heighten your ability to gain more Skill Points as it grants a buff that lasts for 30 seconds which increases your Skill Point gain by +300%. It also gives 15 points towards opening your sealed items.

[h3]3. Stoneback Crab[/h3]There are 3 types of Stoneback Crabs.

Once the match begins, 1 of each type of Stoneback Crab will spawn per match in pre-designated areas. Each Stoneback Crab grants different types of buffs when they are defeated. These buffs are very useful and can affect the flow of the battle.

So, wanna a closer look at the types of Stoneback Crabs?

1) Demi River Stoneback Crab

The Demi River Stoneback Crab will not attack once engaged. Instead, it will start to quickly run away. Use your strongest skills and continue to attack it from behind as it flees.

Defeating this speedy monster will net you a 5 minute buff to increase your Movement Speed by +10%.

2) Mountain Stoneback Crab

The Mountain Stoneback Crab can be found near the southern mountain range. This Stoneback Crab possesses a large amount of health. It will unleash counter-attacks against attackers and can even knock down its foes.

Defeating the Mountain Stoneback Crab may prove a bit difficult, but defeating it will grant you an 8 minute buff that will make you immune to attacks from the Hungry Black Spirits that dwell in the Dark Fog. So, doesn’t it seem like it’s worth the trouble?

3) Steppe Stoneback Crab
The Steppe Stoneback Crab can be found in the western steppes.

It has relatively low health, but it deals a great amount of damage. So be wary of its counters as you face this monster.

Defeating the Steppe Stoneback Crab will net you a 3 minute buff that increases your damage against monsters by +700.

If you value efficiency, make sure to take down the Steppe Stoneback Crab first before hunting down other monsters!

[h3]4. Elite Monsters[/h3]
Elite Monsters may be stronger compared to normal monsters, but if you successfully defeat them, they will always drop blue-grade gear and items.

If you encounter an Elite Monster at the start of the match, take on the challenge and defeat them to obtain blue grade gear!

[h3]5. Shadow Knights[/h3]

The Shadow Knights will mainly appear either within or around large city areas.

Defeating the Shadow Knights has a high chance of earning you Skill Points, so take down Shadow Knights to quickly boost your skill levels!

[h3]6. High-Density Area[/h3]The monster density of certain areas within Serendia has been increased.
