New Content Highlights

A claw machine mini-game? Yep, it's at the Laughing Marionette. Players can snag 12 types of lighting items, special headgear, Abyss Artifacts, and Gears. It's a fun twist.

Mounts are getting an upgrade too. Now you can ride wolves, bears, and iguanas. This adds more to explore and strategize. Plus, there's a new extraction feature to reclaim materials from equipment. That's a boost for progression.

New mounts include:

  • Wolves, Bears, Camels
  • Kuku Birds, Iguanas
  • Lions, Tigers

Game Enhancements

New combat skills are here for Oongka, including unarmed combat. Players can now sheath swords for a visual tweak. And pet dogs in combat? Thanks to the 'Sigil of Valor,' they can join the fight. Buy it from the Secret Shop NPC in Pororin.
