Development Team’s Introduction to the new “Equipment Presets” feature.



Masters of the Book,

The development team plans to add the “Equipment Preset” feature in preparation for the upcoming update on October 2nd. Before the update, we will briefly introduce the function and explain its purpose.

Before discussing the new “Equipment Preset” function coming to the game however, We would like to tell our Masters of the Book first what the development team is focusing on regarding relics.

Currently, it is trivial to obtain a Legendary-rarity Relic with one or two Additional Stats, However, we believe that it is very challenging to obtain one where the additional stats attached are useful to your current build. Additionally, even if all stats are configured as desired, the difficulty will increase exponentially if you consider the intricacies of the Relic Enhancement mechanic.

While obtaining your desired Relic and Additional Stat combination may bring a significant sense of accomplishment, this is a significant barrier to entry for Masters of the Book who wish to make their Knights stronger regardless of the grade of Knights of Veda.

In addition, we thought that the process of replacing each piece of equipment with optimized equipment settings for each content was inconvenient, and we were also concerned that in this situation if new equipment is added in the future, the burden will be much greater than the fun of farming.

We mostly talked about Relics but the same could be said for Accessories as they share similar characteristics. To resolve this issue, we are introducing the new Equipment Preset feature to the game along with the two changes below.


1. You can now register Preset Relics and Accessories and apply them at once.

By taking advantage of this feature and saving the Relics and Accessories you want to equip as presets, you can now conveniently assign them to the respective Knights much more easily. We wanted to provide Masters of the Book with the freedom of being able to easily switch presets tailored to each Knight of Veda, along with the convenience of quickly replacing equipment that matches the content.


2. You can now equip a single Relic or Accessory multiple times as duplicated.

After the update, multiple Knights of Veda can now equip one Relic or Accessory at the same time.
This was made as if we introduce the Equipment Preset feature without this change, removing and replacing equipment equipped by each Knights of Veda would still be as tedious as before, therefore not allowing us to achieve our goal of making the experience for our Masters of the Book more convenient.

We believe that the core fun of Relics and Accessories is combining various set effects based on random options, so we introduced duplicate equipment to maximize convenience and minimize fatigue from duplicate farming.

This will be especially important for when we release new Knights of Veda in the future, as this would allow us to optimize options to fit various playstyles rather than forcing players to farm for more Relics and accessories.

Allowing this would also make these new Knights and also the current roster of 4★ Knights to be utilized more. In addition, we will be reducing the burden of Relics and Accessories in upcoming content updates, and also allowing you to easily switch equipment for an optimal setup based on the content you want to tackle.

In particular, we plan to provide an environment where you can set up equipment more conveniently through the updated Training Grounds system.


We expect that the Equipment Preset function and duplicate equipment system will be of great help to all Masters of the Book. By lowering the threshold for basic equipment settings, we reduce the burden of initial growth and allow you to tailor the Knights of Veda to suit your preferred play style. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy your journey in Todburg even more.

The development team is working hard to not miss the opinions of the Masters of the Book and will do our best to provide better service.

Thank you.
