[Announcement] November 29th Raid Dungeon Part 2: 'Void (Taint)' Preview

Hello Heroes of Bermesiah,

The developers are busy preparing the new raid dungeon, winter contents, and improvements.
Today, we will be going over the raid dungeon Part 2


■ Entry Requirement and Clear Count Reset Date
Only characters at Level 85 SS+ (200K↑) Battle Power can enter.
Void (Taint)' Dungeon Clear Count will reset every Wednesday.

■ New Ancient Rank Equipment and Set Effect
Lv.85 Ancient Rank Equipment [Voidal Gazer Helm], [Voidal Gazer Upper Armor], and [Voidal Gazer Lower Armor] will be added.
Players can acquire [Voidal Gazer Helm Select Box], [Voidal Gazer Upper Armor Select Box], [Voidal Gazer Lower Armor Select Box] at a very low chance upon defeating the last monster.
Players can use [Voidal Fragment of Taint] and [True Iron Dragon Equipment] to upgrade into [Voidal Gazer Helm Select Box], [Voidal Gazer Upper Armor Select Box], or [Voidal Gazer Lower Armor Select Box] in Hero's Bullion Shop.
Players that equip [Voidal Devourer Weapon] and [Voidal Gazer Equipment] will receive [Void Defier] Set Effect.


■ Dungeon Reward
Players can acquire Monster Card for the monsters of Void and Raid Exclusive Titles on a set chance.
For every stage in Void (Taint) cleared, players can acquire [Advanced Rune Summon Chest] and [Twisted Void Box].
[Twisted Void Box] contains Lisnar's Prayer, Another World Monster Card Box, and other various rewards.

■ Dungeon Overview
From the previous Developer's Notes, we have outlined that our development goal is to strengthen the emphasis on mechanics and increase the sources of currency and materials to upgrade equipment.
- [Announcement] October 27th Developer's Notes: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/985810/view/3716092146805566535?l

We will share the changes we have made in light of our purpose and goal.

□ Cooperation and Mechanics
The Voidal Devourer, defeated in Void Part 1 will take a new form and return in Void (Taint) Part 2.
In the first stage, players will battle against numerous Void monsters. Players will have to defeat specific Void monsters to clear.
In the second stage, players will battle against Voidal Gazers and their cronies, the Voidal Executors. Players must cooperate to prevent them from executing a powerful AOE attack.
A minimap system like that in Berkas' Lair and Hungry Pets' Revolt will be implemented so that players will be able to know the location of other players and other monsters.
In order to support quick communication, a new system will be implemented to allow players to bind chats to their hotkeys. We will see how this goes to see if this would be good to be implemented as part of a basic system.

□ Added More Sources of Currency and Materials to Upgrade Equipment
Players can acquire [Single Stat Change Scroll] on a 100% chance through the weekly mission to complete Part 2 'Void (Taint)'.
In this update, players will be able to acquire equipment and related scrolls through login and weekly missions through various events. We look forward to your participation.
More sources such as events and contents will be added to allow players to strengthen their Void equipment without using monetary currency.
[Single Stat Change Scroll (Weapon)] will be combined to a global scroll. If scrolls were divided into exclusive slots, it would make them very difficult to farm. We have adjusted the names of the scrolls so that 1 global scroll can be used.

□ Higher Difficulty Hidden Stage and Higher Title Rewards
If players clear Phase 3 within a certain time limit, the boss gate will appear. Upon destroying the boss gate within 10 seconds, they can enter the hidden stage.
Players cannot use potions or resurrect in Hidden Stage. If characters die, the game will end with the previous stage as progression.
Upon clearing the Hidden Stage, players will receive materials for True Title on a 100% chance. Players may combine with the materials in their possession to create a True Title.
True Title has higher stats compared to the Void Raid Title. It will be an honorable Title for completing a Feat of Strength.

□ Other Changes
Players can craft Voidal Fragment for Void (Taint) Dungeon using the current Voidal Fragment x3. If players have excess Voidal Fragments after getting their Void Weapons, players may be able to craft [Voidal Gazer Equipment] faster.
Players can also craft [Origin of Chaos] Title using Voidal Fragment x50. If players have already crafted the Void Weapon, they can craft to acquire the Title.
A new function will be added to allow players to upgrade in mass by setting the quantity so that players can easily upgrade crafting materials.
An exclusive upgrade property will be added for equipping Epic Reinforcement Stone to Ancient Rank Helm, Upper Armor, and Lower Armor.

We will strive to create the best experience possible.
Thank you.
