Patch Notes [Version 142]

Release Date: October 29, 2026

Patch 142 also includes the Anniversary Event +40% experience extension that will run until November 12th, 2026. 

A few housekeeping issues. Support is catching up with tickets from the service disruption. The remainder of the Power Bundle additions will be sent out. Nation Warfare rewards will also be collected to be sent out. 

Post Update Mentions:

  • The formatting for the Patch Notes is not correct. This will be corrected to make it easier to read.
  • Howling Castle cannot use Special Scroll of Return, Mapmakers, or invisibility. Guild Calls are allowed. 
  • The Abberation monster is a watcher monster and not removed. Killing the monster offers no rewards as it was meant for a different system. He might deter you should you impede on his location.

Changes

  • Advent Key text changed to unique color. Item is not a unique and will not work with recycling

  • Updated Skill descriptions. Most (Next Level:x) descriptions are temporarily removed

  • Horus reduced to ignore 30% armor

  • Accuracy and Evasion

    • Explained: Attacks with an accuracy lower than targets dodge have a chance to reduce damage or miss. 

      • 100 Damage with no accuracy penalty will always hit 100 Damage

      • 100 Damage with half accuracy penalty means your attacks will be dodged half of the time with between 50 to 100 damage based on the damage roll.

    • Accuracy and Evasion are on a new system for scaling. 

    • Monster Accuracy and Evasion are also on the new scaling system

    • The majority of Accuracy or Evasion comes from levels. There is no reason to carry specific sets unless you want to experiment or prefer a specific build.

    • Removed dodge modifier to equalize all classes. Example: Spearman received x5 dodge modifiers while mages received x3 modifiers.

    • Each level provides boosts to offensive and defensive capabilities in PvP and PvE. The higher the level gap between targets the more beneficial this becomes.

    • Monster dodge is tiered by monster type:

      • PRIME +20% dodge

      • ELITE +40% dodge

      • Mini-Boss +60% dodge

      • Demi-Boss +80% dodge

      • Boss +100% dodge
