Masters of the Book,

A new update to ASTRA: Knights of Veda will be released on June 27, 2024!

Read below to find out more about what this update will bring to the game.

[h3]■ Update[/h3]

• A new ★5 Knight of Veda ‘Sorin’ will arrive!
  
  
  
  [Code] “Nice to meet you all! I'm Sorin Urora. Call me the Saint of the Sun”
  She is a remarkable knight and a star among the Salvation Knights
  People admire her, and she returns their love
  Sorin always wears a bright smile,
  but deep down there may be a darker side that remains hidden, perhaps more than anyone can fathom

Sorin is a Light-type Melee Healer with a Sword & Shield who heals allies and assists in combat. Her Normal Skill "Answer of the Goddess" deals Light DMG to enemies and heals allies’ HP. Signature Skill "Sunlit Flower" deals Light DMG to a wide area and heals allies over time.

Summons (this includes Nec/Rodrick, Sansar/Narni, Iris/Dekania) are not removed by Sorin’s Signature Skill [Sunlit Flower].
Due to reasons of in-game balance, structures summoned by some bosses will not be removed by [Sunlit Flower]. Affected bosses include:
* Adventure Dungeon Chapter 6 Boss / Giant Golden Bell
* Sealed Prison Chapter 3 Boss / Rolling Quartz Boulders
* Sealed Prison Chapter 4 Boss / Electric Spheres
* Sealed Prison Chapter 5 Boss / Glacier Crash, Blizzard


A new ★4 Knight of Veda ‘Iris’ will also be available.

 “I will achieve great things from now on! Remember this day!”
She is admired by all, but she also has a passionate admiration for someone. Iris has become a member of the Salvation Knights-in-Training, fueled by her deep admiration for the Great Mage of Earth, Lynn Savage. With a sense of pride in her own abilities, she may encounter setbacks along the way, but she will persevere through these challenges to achieve her dreams

“Iris” is an Earth-type Ranged Support wielding Wand & Orb. She summons Dekania and drops rocks in combat. Her Normal Skill “Summon Dekania” summons Dekania to taunt enemies, increasing the damage received by the targeted enemy. Her Signature Skill "Grasp of Desire" causes a giant stone hand to rise up, binding enemies and exploding as it disappears, dealing additional DMG

[h3]■ ‘Black Mutation’ Follow Function[/h3]

• A button will be added so that other knights can follow the currently controlled Knight of Veda.

[h3]■ Season Reset: Tower of Trials[/h3]

• A new Tower of Trials season will start after the update and will end after the maintenance on July 11th.

• During this “Journey in Memory” event, you can try out the 5★ Character Sorin, 4★ Iris and 4★ Andrei.
  
• This event will end after the maintenance on July 25th.

• An issue where she did not perform strong attacks under certain conditions in auto-attack mode will be fixed.

[h3]■ Sansar[/h3]

• Some changes to her Fate description/effects will be applied:
  - Fate level 2 effect: Previously, "Narni Attack Power +19%, Health +12.5%" was applied but missing in the fate description. This will be fixed.
  - Fate level 6 effect: "Narni Attack Power +50%" was correctly applied, but displayed as the Fate level 2 effect ("Narni Attack Power +19%, Health +12.5%"). This will be corrected.
  
• Signature Skill 'Wolf of Light': Attack Power: Previously increased by 0.8% per skill upgrade from a base of 21% (0 Fate), will be changed to increase by 1% per upgrade.
  
• Health: Previously increased by 3% per skill upgrade from a base of 80% (0 Fate), and will be changed to increase by 4.8% per upgrade.

[h3] ■ Yanko[/h3]

• An issue where Fate level 2 description: “Attack Power +40%, Health +33%" was applied but missing in the description has been changed.” (Updated 07/01 01:55 AM UTC/ 06/30 06:55 PM PDT)
  
• The description for his Normal Skill “Automatic Interceptor” has been modified to display the enhancements given by the Fate level. (Updated 07/01 01:55 AM UTC/ 06/30 06:55 PM PDT)
