Meridian System:
A new system for Lv40 and up, allowing the player to “ascend” their stats much higher than before! Requires the use of Mystic Pills and Holy Pills, available in the Boutique! To reach the Meridian System Window, when reaching Lv40, open the Inventory window and click on the character figure directly in the middle. Click on the first circle, CV1, begin the ascension process!
Please visit here to learn more about this new system!

Venomancer Evolution System
Venomancers can now upgrade and evolve their pets with the use of Feral Soul Stars! The newly evolved pets are randomly assigned 1 of 40 moods which come with 2 new additional skills. These moods can be "reshaped" to be assigned a new mood, and this same reshaping can be done to reroll your pet's stats! In addition to these mood skills, evolved pets also obtain a unique move that only they can do!
Feral Soul Stars can be obtained in the new daily Venomancer dungeon, Unyielding Hall, which can only be accessed between 8:00am to 11:30pm server time.
To obtain entry to the new Venomancer only dungeon, please talk to Mrs. Zoologist in South Eastern Archosaur.

New Items
New Fashion Weapons:
Players now have more options for their fashion weapon of choice!
The reflective 1-handed or dual-wielding Ego Bruisers, the ever-illuminating Jousting Lantern, the death inducing Devil’s Cauldron, the wiry Wildwood Longbow, or the sloshing Tsunami Bottles!
You can find these new stylish weapons in Fashion Weapon tab of the Boutique!

Venomancer Evolution Items:
There are now 2 new items in the Pet tab of the Boutique, Soulroot Stone and Harpy Plume. These can be exchanged with Mrs. Zoologist in Archosaur for one of two new Venomancer Pets!
The Soulroot Stones can be exchanged for a Monkey King while the Harpy Plumes can be exchanged for a Harpy. The Monkey King is an excellent tanking pet while the Harpy excels at area of effect magic damage.

Rebuilt Seat of Torment and Abaddon:
With the player limit increased to 10, these two dungeons now have a brand new storyline, granting a fresh experience to these two weathered dungeons. Both of the revamped dungeons also come with a new map tracking function, making teamwork much easier as it will be the deciding factor between victory and failure.
