We hope you enjoy the update and that it provides plenty of entertainment and playtime. Have fun!

During the events at Dread Cove Isle, a mysterious portal suddenly appeared on Cardia Island, right where the fairies are.

Ancient records of Cardia speak of a legend concerning the Astralforest. This forest is said to harbor beings known as Spirits, who seek the protection of brave warriors and aid them in their battle against evil forces by granting them their powers.

This place is guarded by powerful beings who protect the Spirits. However, Ifora has noticed that they are not as benevolent as once described in the ancient records.

According to legends, there is also a mighty deity in this forest known as the Goddess of Spirits and astral abilities.

Help Ifora solve the mystery of this place and master the summoning of Spirits!

Note:
This dungeon is designed for two to three endgame players with relatively good equipment.
Adjustments to dungeon balance may be made based on your feedback.
The dungeon can only be entered at Royal Level 15!
In this dungeon, you can also obtain items needed from older endgame content.
Rewards for dungeon ranking are disabled in this dungeon for a certain period and will be added in the future.

Astral Spirits, as mentioned earlier, are beings that support you in battle by granting you their abilities.

Astral Spirits can be obtained in the Astral Forest by collecting quest items that are rarely dropped by minibosses and bosses.

These quest items can be exchanged for any Spirit with Ifora in Cardia, in front of the portal to the Astralwood, using a "Fairy of Darkness (Ultimate)." Currently, there are 27 Spirits available to choose from, with the possibility of more types being added in the future.

These Spirits can only be summoned starting from Royal Level 15.

The Spirits also have their own level, which is increased by defeating Royal Monsters. The higher the level of the Royal Monster, the more experience the Spirit gains. The received experience can be augmented by Spirit-EXP items. There may also be Spirit-EXP events in the future.

Additionally, the Spirits have HP that gradually decreases. You can feed the Spirits Astral Spirit Cakes to restore 10 HP each. These cakes can be obtained from Ifora by exchanging Cardia Monster Coins. The Spirits just love cake!

To prevent you from having to manually feed the Spirits, an option will also be available to supply them with new Foodbags, which will be obtainable in the Premium Shop.

If a Spirit dies due to the loss of HP, you can revive it with a new item available in the Premium Shop.

The Spirits have the ability to enhance the abilities they grant you by equipping them with Spirit Equipment, which can be found in the Astral Forest.

You can open the Spirit Equipment window by summoning the Spirit and right-clicking on the Spirit model.

The Spirit Equipment has fixed stats and various categories such as Medium and High-grade Equipment. Occasionally, there are even better rarity levels.

The High-grade Equipment items are rarely dropped by end bosses or can rarely be obtained through the Astral Loot Orb, which you can acquire by recycling Medium & other "High"-grade Spirit Equipment items with Ifora in front of the portal to the Astral Forest.

When you equip Spirit Equipment on your Spirit, it becomes fused with the Spirit! Therefore, removing items from the Spirit will completely destroy them and they will no longer be available.

In total, there are 68 possible Spirit Equipment items available, each with various new effects and bringing different variations of Spirits.

Spirit Equipment has a Spirit Level requirement, meaning your Spirit must have Spirit Level 3, 6, or 10 (maximum level) depending on the item to equip it.

It's possible to create multiple Spirits with different equipment and switch between them.

Spirits can be traded with their equipment and sold among players.

Additionally, Spirits have base status effects that are slightly better than those of a "Fairy of Darkness."

An Elf and a Spirit cannot be active simultaneously!

In the options, you can also hide your Spirit so that you and other players cannot see it when summoned.

In Guild War, Spirits are invisible. Regarding this, we will soon see how we can better display it if players want to switch these Spirits in Guild Siege.

Based on our simulation of dungeon runs, the Exchanger has been set up so that it's possible to obtain a Spirit within two to three weeks, possibly even earlier, as the required quest items can also be traded among players.

The Umbala Dungeon has opened its gates on Dread Cove Isle!

The monkey Umbpa needs your help with the inhabitants of Umbala. For some unknown reason, the residents are extremely aggressive, attacking themselves and others. Help Umbpa restore peace to his home!

As thanks, Umbpa will provide you with his craftsmanship by crafting Umbala weapons (skins) or Umbala furniture, which have the strongest furniture effects in Madrigal.

Umbpa can be found outside the entrance to Umbala.

The Umbala Dungeon is relatively small and designed for one to two players. The drop rates are set so that you can obtain four furniture pieces in approximately two weeks.

Furniture pieces last for 30 days, but there are also versions that last for 90 days and are overall more cost-effective.

In this dungeon, you can also obtain items needed from older endgame content.

The quest items required for crafting furniture by Umbpa can also be traded!

Rewards for dungeon ranking are disabled in this dungeon for a certain period and will be added in the future.

The Destruction Cavern Dungeon now features a Heroic Mode, designed for very strong endgame players and can only be accessed at Royal Level 20.

In this mode, you will receive a Drop+2 buff in the dungeon and some buffs that bring negative effects to your character.

The dungeon includes a timerun where you can obtain a Heroic Destruction Treasure and a Fire Flower (Binded).

The Heroic Treasure contains useful items such as new shader weapons, suit glows, hand glows, weapon glows, and many other useful items. Further information on these items can be found below.

The dungeon offers 64 new magma shaded weapons as well as 2-3 capes and a mask with an animated effect, which are occasionally available through the Heroic Destruction Treasure. You can view the animations in the item wiki's model viewer.

The Azmore Forest now features a Heroic Mode, designed for very strong endgame players and can only be accessed at Royal Level 20.

In this mode, you will receive a Drop+2 buff in the dungeon and some buffs that bring negative effects to your character.

The dungeon includes a timerun where you can obtain a Heroic Azmore Treasure and an Ice Flower (Binded).

The Heroic Treasure contains useful items such as new shader weapons, suit glows, hand glows, weapon glows, and many other useful items. Further information on these items can be found below.

The dungeon offers 64 new ice shaded weapons as well as 2-3 capes and a mask with an animated effect, which are occasionally available through the Heroic Azmore Treasure. You can view the animations in the item wiki's model viewer.

The Deep Temple now features a Heroic Mode, designed for strong endgame players.
This dungeon does not have a Royal Level lock!

In this mode, you will receive a Drop+2 buff in the dungeon and some buffs that bring negative effects to your character.

The dungeon includes a timerun where you can obtain a Heroic Proton Treasure.

The Heroic Treasure contains useful items such as new shader weapons, suit glows, hand glows, weapon glows, and many other useful items. Further information on these items can be found below.

The dungeon offers 64 new proton shaded weapons as well as 2-3 capes and a mask with an animated effect, which are occasionally available through the Heroic Proton Treasure. You can view the animations in the item wiki's model viewer.

With this patch, we are introducing Reroll Effect Stones, which can be obtained as very rare drops in the Destruction Cavern, Azmore Forest, and Pirate Cave.

These stones influence the probability of rerolls.

The effects of each stone can be found in the game via the item wiki, the exchanger, or the drop information.

There are two types of Reroll Effect Stones:

- Singular, consumed per reroll
- Permanent, requiring hard-earned efforts and only affecting Royal items upgraded to +10 (One Permanent Stone is required for +8 items)

The singular Reroll Effect Stones can be very rarely dropped in both Normal and Heroic modes of the dungeons.

Additionally, there are bound singular Reroll Stones, which can occasionally be purchased from Lord Pang in Cardia if saved up for. However, the exchange rate there is kept higher, as we cannot yet assess the drop quantity of the normal versions in live operation (hence the rarity of drops in dungeons). Adjustments may follow there. Further information on the Lord Pang Exchange in Cardia can be found below.

The singular Reroll Effect Stones can be traded among players.

The permanent Reroll Effect Stones are bound and cannot be traded.

For the Permanent Stones, recycling materials from older content are required, obtained by recycling Black Shiny Armor, Weapons & Soulreaver Armor and Weapons. As a result, endgame players might buy up these parts for recycling from midgame players. Additionally, new Fire & Ice Coins are needed for the production of Permanent Stones, which can be rarely dropped by all monsters in Cardia. These can be traded or recycled to obtain 5 Perin each.

Furthermore, there is a time barrier set by us, which requires collecting Fire and Ice Flowers for the permanent effect stones. These can be obtained in the heroic dungeons Destruction Cavern and Azmore Forest Timerun.

The Permanent Stones and bound Singular Reroll Effect Stones cannot be offered in the player's Black Market.

Once you use even a single stone during the rerolling process on your item, the item will be cursed with the Soulbound curse and become untradeable! This curse cannot be lifted! This is indicated multiple times in the game and asked again when using an effect stone for the first reroll, ensuring your certainty. There is no going back, even if you misclick!

The stones consumed per reroll affect Royal Weapons, Royal Armor, Royal Jewelry, and Omega Fashion.

The permanent stones only affect Royal Weapons and Royal Armor.

Hunter Badges provide a means to acquire additional items through active participation in the game. You obtain them by participating in world boss battles (excluding beginner world bosses).

All characters at Royal Level 6 and above receive, in addition to the world boss reward item, the Bound Hunter Badge, which can be exchanged with Lord Pang for useful items. These include, for example, bound Royal EXP Scrolls, Shop Status VIP 3D, Guild XP Books, bound singular reroll effect stones, augmentations, reroll stones, etc.

Additional items may be added there in the future.

Through the Heroic Deep Temple, Destruction Cavern, and Azmore Forest Timerun, you can obtain glowstones. These glowstones can be inserted into the Element Change window and overwrite the glow of the respective element.

The glowstones retain their effect for a certain period of time. If you remove them by double-clicking on them in the Element Change window, the glowstones are completely destroyed.

There are eight different types of glowstones.

Accordingly, we have created 80 new weapon glows and added them to all weapon types.

These glowstone items can be traded.

The weapon glows can be viewed in the Item Wiki Model Viewer by equipping the corresponding weapon beforehand and then pressing on the corresponding glowstone.

Additionally, we have also introduced approximately 40 new suit glows and hand glows. These can be activated as item buffs for a certain period of time and overwrite your current suit and hand glow.

These glows can only be obtained through the Timerun in the Heroic Deep Temple, Destruction Cavern, and Azmore Forest.

These items can also be traded.

You can view these glows in the Item Wiki Model Viewer by selecting an item as a model beforehand.

We have integrated a new graphical shader into the game, which is activated by default. This shader causes distant objects in the game to appear slightly blurred.

Personally, we find the appearance of this shader appealing, however, it can be deactivated in the options by turning off the FoV option in the shader section.

*Please note that this shader only works if your graphics card supports it!

The Galaxy Adventure Pass is nearing its release!

A detailed news announcement will follow soon.

This Adventure Pass is aimed at endgame players in Cardia and offers a variety of new tasks!

As usual, you'll receive many great rewards for completing the adventure questline with this pass. Additionally, at the end, you can choose a new Galaxy Set Skin of your choice from a selection of several skins. Furthermore, you'll receive three out of a total of 64 random Galaxy Shader Skin weapons!

The cost of the pass itself remains unchanged compared to previous passes.
However, the optional fee for skipping quests with this adventure pass is increased and accordingly more expensive.

After this pass, we plan to fundamentally overhaul the Adventure Pass system and no longer manage it through NPCs.
