Heroes of Arkesia,

During weekly maintenance a new event will be added and Server Transfers will be enabled for Ignite players to move to Legacy Servers. Downtime will begin on October 30 at 12am PT (7am UTC) and is expected to last 5 hours. Learn about the new event and transfer experience below.

[h3]Mokoko Bootcamp Event[/h3]
The Mokoko Bootcamp Event runs from October 30th to January 15th, 2025 and is designed to encourage veteran players to play dungeons with new or returning players. New and returning players whose highest Item Level character on their account is below Item Level 1660 can earn "Mokoko Tokens" for completing dungeons during the event period. These new and returning players will have a "green leaf" icon in the recruitment panel. Green leaf Mokoko players will be those who meet one of the following conditions:

• A new account that has been created within the event period
  
• Accounts that have been created within 60 days before the event start date
  
• Accounts with a previous Login Date over 60 days before the event start date

Once a player acquires the “green leaf”, it will persist until the end of the event, but will expire when any of the characters in that player’s account is over Item Level 1660.

Veteran players, defined as active players not belonging to the categories above, can earn "Expert Tokens" when they complete dungeons together with the new/returning players. Both the Mokoko Tokens and Expert Tokens can then be exchanged for rewards, with the number of Tokens earned varying based on which specific dungeons are completed. As long as there is at least one new/returning player in the group, the entire team qualifies to earn the respective Tokens.

The reward tables will be slightly different for new players and returning players, but both reward tables will have both weekly and once-per-roster items. Both groups will have access to honing materials and even Metallurgy/Tailoring: Hellfire honing books to help hone in Tier 4. Mokoko Tokens will better help newer players get caught up on things like cards and other methods of progression. The Expert Tokens will grant endgame items, including a Relic Engraving Selection chest, and a “Mokoko General” title with a special icon title for helping new players out!

[h3]Ignite Server Transfer[/h3]
The transfer window allowing Ignite players to transfer a single character to Legacy servers will open with the update, and will remain open until November 25. There are two types of transfers:
Roster Transfer (better for new players) - move some roster level information to a server without an existing roster, along with the chosen character.
Character Transfer (better for returning or active players) - merge your chosen Ignite character into an existing roster.

To view what will (or will not) transfer with each type of transfer, visit our Ignite Servers Merge Policy Page.

We’re excited to welcome new and returning Ignite players to Legacy Servers as reinforcements in the fight against Kazeros. New threats will be able to be challenged in the North Kurzan storyline, Behemoth Epic Raid, and the Echidna and Aegir Kazeros Raids. In the meantime, we’ll see you in Arkesia!

Heroes of Arkesia,

Aegir arrives in the second major October update. Downtime will begin on October 23 at 2am PT (9am UTC) and is expected to last 6 hours.

The new 2-gate Kazeros Raid will require you to face off against dangerous threats, both familiar and new. The rotting King of the Dead, Akkan, will unleash his horrifying attacks, even calling forth the tormented soul of the fallen Beast Legion Commander Valtan. Joining this unholy alliance, Aegir arrives, raining down a devastating barrage to crush any resistance to Akkan's plague.

If you're able to defeat Akkan, you'll need to challenge Aegir within the Giant's body — no easy feat. Entering Chapter 1: Earth-Shattering Hellfire will require Item Level 1660 for Normal Mode and 1680 for Hard Mode. With Hyper Awakenings, Hyper Awakening Skills, and Allied Forces Skills in the raimd you have the tools to be successful, but it’s up to you and your raid group to put the pieces together and achieve victory. The Kazeros Raid against Aegir is an 8-player raid.



Victorious players can will earn Hellfire Keystones, the material to craft T4 Ancient Gear, T4 Accessories (Relic from Normal Mode, Ancient from Hard Mode), Aegir's Abyssal Trail Effect Chest (Hard exclusive), Relic Engravings, T4 honing materials, Special Honing: Circulated Leapstone, and more!


Many more updates also arrive, with a large balance update, new cosmetics and much more. Find the full release notes on our Aegir's Arrival Release Notes page.
