Developer's Note - Season 1 Update Preview

[p]Hello, Stalkers.[/p][p]This is SJGO, the Head of Development for Dungeon Stalkers.[/p][p]We would like to express our gratitude to all Stalkers who enjoy Dungeon Stalkers. Today, we're here to share news about the conclusion of the Pre-season, as well as Season 1 and the Official Launch.[/p][p]The Dungeon Stalkers development team has incorporated various feedback from the Pre-season and aims to provide a more refined game system sooner, ensuring a more stable service. Therefore, we have decided to transition to Official Launch starting with Season 1.[/p][p]However, to ensure a more robust update, we plan to expand the scope of the Season 1 update, which will push the update schedule back slightly to late October.[/p][p]Now, allow us to introduce the key updates for Season 1 that you've all been curious about.[/p][p][/p][h2]1.New Stalkers: Kazimorde, Black Maria[/h2][p][/p][h3]1.Kazimorde[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][h3]A Fallen Hero on the Border of Wounds and Salvation[/h3][p]Kazimorde is a legendary officer of the Tania Kingdom and a warrior known as the 'Flash Hawk'. He became a hero on countless battlefields, but after a fatal battle with a sorcerer, he suffered deep physical and mental wounds, losing everything. To regain his body, honor, and love, he ventures into the depths of the dungeon in search of the legendary herb, the 'Red Flower'. Look forward to Kazimorde, a tragic hero battling with anguish, loss, and a yearning for salvation.[/p][h3]Playstyle[/h3][p]Kazimorde is a melee warrior who wields twin blades with expertise, boasting overwhelming DPS through fast normal attacks and combo attacks. He continuously attacks enemies with an attack tempo 20-30% faster than other Stalkers. By successfully performing a 'Just Guard' with his RMB Guard, he can nullify enemy attacks without taking damage. He is suitable for players who desire the ultimate thrill, a dynamic tempo, and fast-paced action unmatched by other Stalkers.[/p][p][/p][h3]2.Black Maria[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][h3]An Inquisitor on the Border of Light and Shadow[/h3][p]In the past, Black Maria was a high-ranking Inquisitor known as 'White Night,' who brought light even in darkness and severely punished evil. Questioning her blood-soaked faith, she secluded herself in a monastery. However, facing a new calamity that has engulfed the world, she dons heavy armor and takes up her sword for salvation. She emerges to become a beacon of light in the darkness, protecting those who suffer![/p][h3]Playstyle[/h3][p]She is a warrior character whose core playstyle revolves around charged (RMB) attacks with a two-handed greatsword. She delivers powerful single blows through skill combos that combine engagement abilities, sustain, and shock skills. Players will experience a weighty combat feel. Furthermore, her unique stance, wielding the blade backward, and the powerful swings of her greatsword are distinct charms of this character.[/p][p][/p]
  • [p]Kazimorde and Black Maria will be released sequentially during Season 1.[/p]
[p][/p][h2]2.New Dungeon Theme: Mansion of Desire[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p]The manor of a noble aristocratic family from Asion has been swallowed into a rift of curses, becoming the 'Mansion of Desire'.[/p][p]Within this rift, the manor retains its antique and luxurious appearance, yet exudes an eerie atmosphere, offering a new exploration experience distinct from the existing 'Prison Dungeon'.[/p][p][/p][h2]3.New Raid Boss: Mimic Queen[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p]Amelia, the mistress of the Mansion of Desire, once called the Jewel of Asion, could not escape the Witch's Curse. In that place, where the chaos of the dungeon mingled with the Witch's capricious magic, her greed became a curse that twisted her body, and she merged with the gigantic, ornate treasure chest she cherished most. Her lower body transformed into a grotesque arthropod born from her distorted obsession to protect her treasures, yet her upper body retained its beautiful human form. You can now encounter the predator who lures the avarice-blinded in the depths of the dungeon: Mimic Queen![/p][p][/p][h2]4.Insurance System: Scavenger Contract[/h2][p]Introducing 'Scavenger,' a new NPC designed to alleviate the burden of equipment loss in Competitive Mode. By paying a small amount of Gold and entering into a contract with the Scavenger before entering Competitive (Solo, Trio) mode, you can recover your equipment if you fail to escape the dungeon. (However, this applies only to equipment worn upon entry, and the equipment must remain on your corpse.) More details will be revealed in the patch notes.[/p][p][/p][h2]5.Profile Customization System[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p]A profile system will be added, allowing you to customize your profile card. Your profile will display borders, banner images, icons, and titles. Each of these elements will be unlockable through gameplay or purchasable with currency.[/p][p][/p][h2]6.Season Reputation Point Reward System [/h2][p]We plan to award 'Reputation Points' based on the sum of all Stalkers levels you achieved during the Pre-season. These Reputation Points can be used in an exclusive shop to purchase special items such as profile icons, banners, and Stalkers skins.[/p][p][/p][h2]7.Various New Skins[/h2][p][/p][p][/p]
  • [p]Various new skins will be added, including Nave's Legendary skin and swimsuit-themed skins.[/p]
[p][/p][p]For today, we're providing a brief overview of the aforementioned content.[/p][p]In addition, various quality-of-life improvements, balance adjustments, a wider array of Legendary items, event content, and client/server stability enhancements are currently being prepared. We will inform you as soon as they are ready.[/p][p]Furthermore, as the Pre-season period extends, an update will be deployed this week to implement the following measures:[/p]
  • [p]Pre-season Extension Patch Details[/p]
    • [p]Season Pass Level Expansion: 50 -> 60 Levels[/p]

[Notice] 09/24 Item Reclamation and Follow-up Measures

[p][/p][p]Hello, Stalkers,
This is the Dungeon Stalkers Ops Team.[/p][p]We are providing information regarding the account sanctions and item reclamation measures that occurred on September 24.
[/p][p]\[Background of Account Sanctions]
It was confirmed that an exploit existed where dropping stackable items with a quantity of 0 inside the dungeon would allow their quantity to be increased. This was an issue that should not have occurred under normal circumstances, and the development team takes full responsibility.[/p][p]Accordingly, we conducted a full investigation of accounts possessing a certain quantity or more of Selectors or Consumables. While some legitimate users may have been included in this reclamation, the sanctions and reclamation were unavoidably carried out.[/p][p]This measure was promptly decided because if illicitly increased items flowed into the Market, it could significantly impact the game's economy.[/p][p]Although items acquired through legitimate means were planned to be distributed later, due to the urgent situation, prior notice was insufficient. We deeply apologize for not being able to provide sufficient explanation beforehand.
[/p][p]\[Reclamation Status]
Accounts for which reclamation has been completed have had their restrictions lifted, while accounts with severe exploitation were permanently banned.
[/p][p]Permanently Banned Accounts due to Exploitation:[/p][p]日〇〇〇
[/p][p]\[Current Status and Information]
If items were reclaimed despite being acquired through legitimate means, the development and operations teams are preparing for their recovery.[/p][p]They will be distributed to your in-game mailbox as soon as the process is complete.
[/p][p]We extend our deepest apologies to all Stalkers who love Dungeon Stalkers, and we promise to do our utmost to prevent recurrence and provide fair and stable service in the future.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you. Sincerely, The Dungeon Stalkers Ops Team[/p]
