Extreme Training: Terran Phantoms
A new five-stage Extreme Quest will challenge players to prove their worth under the new Expert Player requirements. Play it solo or grab up to three other friends to carve your way through the likes of Aratron Phemut and Deus Hunas. Scape Dolls, Half Dolls, and even the Dark Blast ability will be forbidden from use during the quest. ★13 Invade-NT series weapons have a chance of dropping for skilled players who make it through.
Solo Training: Phanatical Phantoms
A solo version of the aforementioned Extreme Quest will be released as well, with changes to some of the spawning enemies. This highly difficulty quest is perfect for testing the strength of your characters. Like Terran Phantoms, use of Scape Dolls, Half Dolls, and Dark Blast are not permitted.
ARKS Handbook
The ARKS Handbook, hosted by Leontina, will guide players in learning how to efficiently level up, upgrade their equipment, and earn meseta. She will be located at the counter to the left of the main gate.
Early Gaming Portion Improvements
Newcomers will encounter a more streamlined experience as they travel through the early portions of the game.
- [EP 1 ~ 3] mode will be removed, making [EP 4 ~ 5] the only mode available. Players who wish to experience Episodes 1 ~ 3 can do so via Omnibus Quests.
- New characters will be able to start [Episode 5] mode when they head to the bridge after clearing [Forest Exploration].
- You can now unlock new fields without needing permission from Koffie. A list of the new unlocking conditions has been provided through this page.
Omnibus Quest Improvements
Free Fields that are required in order to progress through Omnibus Quests are now conveniently available through the Omnibus Quest menu.
Accessory Ticket Improvements
A recent change allowed fashion-related items to become available to the entire account, if the player used the same ticket on two different characters. Thanks to the magic of Sega's programmers, you can now use two iterations of the same ticket on a single character. Furthermore, in the item details field, you’ll now be able to check the usage state of a ticket.
Other Changes
Buster Quest Adjustments
- Increased the number of drops for Buster Medals in Free Match
- Buster Medals will now be able to drop in Main Match.
- Changed the Buster Point cap from 3000 to 3500.
Due to these changes, [Main Match Advanced (Grade 3+)] will now state that it requires "3000+" Buster Points.
