Hello Chasers!

We are planning on merging the 3 servers currently under service (America, Asia, and Europe) on June 22nd. We are going to retain the quality of the gameplay while allowing other players to meet and communicate with players from different servers.

In the merged server, players will be able to meet and communicate with other players from different servers as long as they are in Eltheca. PVP and PVE matchmaking will be maintained to be between players of similar ping so that the quality of gameplay will be maintained.

With the server merge, the following changes will take place:

- Server Time will be based on UTC+0
- All characters will be merged onto 1 server. Characters and empty slots in each server will all be merged into 1 server.
- Character Rank and Rating will be retained when the server is merged.
- If two or more characters have the same names, their names will be reset. Players will have to rename their characters before they can log into the game.
- All quest information will be merged as well when the server merge happens. Please note that only completed quests will be merged. Any quests under progress or any completed quests that have not been turned in will reset. Please make sure quests are completed and turned in before the scheduled maintenance.
- If two or more guilds have the same names, the guild name will be changed to include the server code. Guilds with their names changed will have a separate in-game button that will allow them to choose a different name. All other guild-related information will be retained.
- Friend/Guild List and Guild Activity Points will be retained.
- After the server merge, Tournament System will be temporarily unavailable. A System Revamp is inevitable with the Server Merge and Tournament System will also undergo a Revamp as well. We will make announcements in the future when Tournament System is ready to be brought back.

If more details and changes are necessary, they will be announced separately.
Thank you.

Unlike the original Survival Mode, 2 players will team up to play in this mode. Teamplay will be crucial in this mode.

[Minimap]
A minimap has been added to display the location of teammates and the Safe Zone.

Players can now acquire buffs to enhance their buff up to rank 3.

[Slay Enemies to Gain Buffs]
When players slay an enemy, all the buffs the enemy has gained and buffs that recover resources will drop.
Heroic buffs may drop on a low chance.
