[p]Tomo's Teatime - Shall We Talk?

Hello, Heroes of Bermesiah! This is Director Tomo.[/p][p]There’s a lot to talk about today. There’s some good news, as well as some things I wanted to get off of my chest. It might end up getting long, but there’s a coupon at the end, so please stay![/p][p]


◼︎ Stronger Enforcement against Hacking and Abnormal Gameplay[/p][p]Going forward, we plan on strengthening our enforcement against hacking and abnormal gameplay.[/p][p]Things like “I launched a hacking tool on accident!” is highly unlikely, so players who are playing normally don’t need to worry.[/p][p]However, in addition to hacking tools, we are continuously reviewing data to take action against abnormal gameplay that may not be automatically detected.[/p][p]Even though there has not been any action taken yet, there are certain issues that have been flagged by our data.[/p][p]We will be enforcing penalties not only for hacking tools but also for abnormal gameplay moving forward.[/p][p]We will carefully change our policies to ensure no one is unfairly penalized.[/p][p]We believe this is a necessary step to maintain a fair gaming environment.[/p][p]


◼︎ Issues with Property Changes due to Coordi Transformation and Fusion[/p][p]With the Coordi Fusion Scrolls becoming available for GP, an issue was discovered where properties could be changed through Coordi Transformation and Fusion.[/p][p]Thanks to the players who reported it quickly, we were able to address it quickly. Thank you![/p][p]This feature will return in its intended state after April 8.[/p][p]Additionally, going forward, True Iron Dragon gear and Void Raid gear will have fixed stats when disenchanting.[/p][p]As Coordi Transformation and Fusion are important elements of gameplay, we will be monitoring them more carefully going forward.[/p][p]We apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused and thank you for understanding.[/p][p]


◼︎ Card Fusion Improvements[/p][p]We’re currently developing the final missing piece to make card collection function properly as a core part of progression: the Card Auto Fusion feature![/p][p]The existing complex scoring system will be completely removed and streamlined into seven clear tiers, from E to S.[/p][p]With Auto Fusion, all you need to do is set your desired score and number of cards and you’re done! You’ll also be able to check obtainable cards and their rates directly on the same screen.[/p][p]Of course, manual fusion will remain available, so you can choose whichever method you prefer.[/p][p]Also, the 30-card lock limit must have been inconvenient, right? It was necessary due to data stability concerns, but we’ve rebuilt the system this time.[/p][p]Starting April 8, you’ll be able to use the lock feature without any limits![/p][p]


◼︎ Necklace & Anklet Enhancement Improvements[/p][p]Since a long while back, while repeatedly enhancing +9 Necklaces, I found myself thinking:[/p][p]“Who is this system even for? :( “[/p][p]
Starting with the April 19 update, the existing necklace and anklet enhancement system will be removed.[/p][p]Going forward, necklaces and anklets will have stats equivalent to the +9 enhancement level.[/p][p]You’ll also be able to convert them into Coordi, allowing you to use your desired stats and effects separately.[/p][p]We’re also considering adding a feature that lets you choose the effect tier you want, but some details may change during development.[/p][p]We’ll share more updates soon![/p][p]


◼︎ Demon Core Improvements[/p][p]We’re looking to improve the slowdown in gear farming and progression after reaching level 85.
First, Demon Cores from Hero Dungeons will be unified into a single type.
You’ll no longer need to run multiple Hero Dungeons to craft True Iron Dragon gear.[/p][p]


◼︎ Equipment Dismantling Improvements[/p][p]On April 8, dismantling rewards will be adjusted overall.[/p][p]Void Raid gear will also return a portion of its crafting materials when dismantled.[/p][p]A preview feature will be added so you can check the results before dismantling.[/p][p]You’ll be much less likely to regret dismantling items now.[/p][p]


◼︎ Removal of Daily Reward Limits in Kriktria Dungeons[/p][p]On April 29, the daily reward limit for Kriktria Dungeons will be removed.[/p][p]We’ve received a lot of feedback that time-limited content can feel like a chore, and this change aims to reduce that fatigue.[/p][p]
After the update, Kriktria entry tickets will be converted into “Sweep Tickets.”[/p][p]You’ll be able to play Kriktria without entry tickets, so unless you have a specific purpose, we recommend saving them instead of using them.[/p][p]However, please note that when using Sweep Tickets, you will not receive items other than materials.[/p][p]


◼︎ Earring & Piercing Set Effect Improvements[/p][p]You farmed hard for higher-tier Kriktria earrings and piercings, only to not get the set effect because the pieces didn’t match… frustrating, right?[/p][p]Going forward, you’ll be able to receive lower-tier set effects even if the full set isn’t completed.[/p][p]For example, if you equip an Epic earring and a Legendary piercing, you’ll receive the Epic-tier set effect.[/p][p]This change is intended to make your progression feel rewarding right away.



◼︎ Regarding the T5 Rune Selection Box Reward[/p][p]While adjusting the event rewards in a hurry, we made a mistake.[/p][p]The reason we included the T5 Rune Selection Box as an event reward was because we were reviewing ways to reduce the burden of farming stat runes. Originally, this item was intended to be obtainable in a limited way through a different path, but we decided to introduce it early through the event to gauge player response.[/p][p]Looking back, it should have been a mid-tier reward rather than a final reward.[/p][p]
We fully understand the sense of loss from seeing something you worked hard to farm being made too easily accessible.[/p][p]
Our direction of easing stat rune farming will remain unchanged.[/p][p]
However, going forward, we will remove randomness from final rewards and carefully consider the effort you’ve put in when determining acquisition methods and frequency.[/p][p]
There’s also something we were truly grateful for this time. Despite being disappointed with the rewards, many of you said you would wait and see improvements in the future.[/p][p]We’ll make sure to live up to that trust. We’re sorry, and thank you.[/p][p] [/p][p] [/p][p]◼︎ Coupon[/p][p]Coupon : VoidFinale[/p][p]Use Period : Until April 8, 2026 Before Maintenance[/p][p]Coupon Items : \[Event] Seal Breaker Scroll x10[/p][p]


◼︎ April 1 April Fools’ Event Preview[/p][p]The April 1 April Fools’ event is ready![/p][p]It will be applied through a separate maintenance.

In past years, the April Fools’ event was usually just a quick “heh” and over. But this year, it’s been taken up a notch.[/p][p]That’s because a new planner, “Tekuring,” has joined the team.[/p][p]At first, we thought they were just an enthusiastic newcomer… but after seeing the April Fools’ proposal…[/p][p]They’re a crazy planner…[/p][p]
We hope you enjoy the returning April Fools’ event![/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p].[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Lastly, we’ve prepared a cute Arme image as a gift for you.
As this is an image still during development, it may be subject to change upon release.[/p][p]
That’s all for today’s Tea Time. Thank you for taking the time to read through this long update!

Sincerely, Tomo[/p]
