| 5s | Hello, Heroes of |
|---|---|
| 6s | Arkesia. Back with another episode |
| 8s | of Patch Notes with Henry. |
| 9s | Today we're going to be covering the |
| 11s | 2 Extreme Update, |
| 13s | which is the second anniversary |
| 15s | update that includes the new Valtan |
| 17s | Extreme Legion Raid. |
| 19s | We have some |
| 20s | really fun stuff planned for the |
| 21s | anniversary this year. |
| 22s | We want it to be a celebration of |
| 24s | the community, and a thank you to |
| 26s | the players for all the |
| 27s | support and passion we've seen. |
| 30s | So we have some really fun things |
| 31s | coming. |
| 32s | So the first big thing we have |
| 33s | coming, this update, which is |
| 35s | actually kind |
| 36s | of an event, but we're going to |
| 37s | talk about it as a raid, is going to |
| 39s | be the Valtan Extreme |
| 41s | Legion Raid. |
| 43s | So Valtan is going to return in a |
| 44s | new, challenging version of the |
| 46s | eight player raid. |
| 47s | There's going to be two versions of |
| 48s | Valtan extreme. |
| 49s | There's normal at item level 1580 |
| 52s | and hard at item level 1620. |
| 55s | With greater challenge comes greater |
| 57s | rewards, though. There's going to be |
| 58s | some cool |
| 59s | first time |
| 60s | rewards, first time clear rewards |
| 62s | that are going to be given upon |
| 63s | clearing |
| 64s | two gates, along with rewards |
| 66s | as you clear. |
| 68s | Each roster can enter the raid |
| 69s | once every two weeks. |
| 72s | One kind of |
| 73s | cool thing is that gold can be |
| 74s | obtained regardless |
| 76s | of whether or not that character is |
| 77s | designated |
| 78s | to earn |
| 78s | gold or not. |
| 79s | So you can play it on, |
| 81s | you know, your main or whatever |
| 82s | character you want, regardless of if |
| 84s | you have that set as a gold earner |
| 85s | for the week. |
| 86s | So the reward opportunity is going |
| 88s | to reset |
| 89s | every two weeks, and the rewards can |
| 91s | be claimed on kind of this cadence. |
| 93s | So from February 7th |
| 95s | after the maintenance to |
| 97s | February 21st, before, |
| 99s | you know, the next maintenance and |
| 101s | then repeating that cycle for the |
| 103s | next, couple of weeks, we |
| 104s | have from February 21st |
| 106s | to March 6th and |
| 108s | then March 6th to March |
| 110s | 20th. |
| 111s | You're going to be able to enter the |
| 113s | Legion Raid, |
| 115s | from the Demon Beast Commander |
| 117s | Valtan entry |
| 118s | UI by click by clicking the |
| 120s | Extreme button. |
| 122s | And then we've added the |
| 123s | corresponding party finder sections |
| 125s | to the UI as well. |
| 127s | Another |
| 128s | interesting thing about this version |
| 129s | of Valtan is when a gate |
| 131s | has been cleared, players can reset |
| 133s | the progress by using the |
| 135s | Gate reset feature. |
| 136s | And when a gate |
| 137s | is reset, all |
| 139s | progress on gate one is reset, and |
| 140s | the player |
| 141s | can either select a different |
| 142s | difficulty |
| 143s | and try the raid again, or players |
| 145s | can enter the raid with a different |
| 147s | character. |
| 148s | I'm personally super excited. |
| 150s | I think Valtan is still one of my |
| 151s | favorite Legion raids. |
| 153s | You know, just that feeling of |
| 155s | trying to stay alive as the arena |
| 157s | gets smaller and smaller and you're |
| 158s | trying not to get knocked off. |
| 160s | I'll never forget my Valtan prog |
| 162s | experience. I had so much fun with |
| 163s | it, so. |
| 164s | I'm excited to be able to play it a |
| 166s | few more |
| 166s | times, you know. |
| 167s | And earn some cool rewards |
| 168s | for the next couple weeks, and |
| 170s | kind of have that throwback in |
| 172s | nostalgia to the first Legion raid. |
| 173s | I think it's a fun time to bring it |
| 175s | in, since this month is all |
| 177s | about celebrating the community and |
| 178s | looking back on some of the cool |
| 180s | moments we've all had together since |
| 182s | we launched Lost Ark in the West. |
| 184s | So the big section for |
| 186s | this Patch. |
| 186s | Notes is going to be the events. |
| 188s | Like I said earlier |
| 190s | this month is all about celebrating |
| 191s | the community and giving some cool |
| 194s | rewards to players. |
| 195s | And one of the best ways of doing |
| 197s | that in Lost Ark is through some |
| 198s | special events. |
| 200s | So we're going to cover, |
| 201s | First off, a |
| 202s | few of the things that are ending |
| 203s | with this update and then launch |
| 204s | into all of the new stuff coming. |
| 206s | So here's a few notes. |
| 207s | The Freya Island event is going to |
| 209s | draw to a close with the February |
| 210s | update. |
| 211s | So a new |
| 212s | Daily Log |
| 213s | In reward track and new Fever Time |
| 215s | events have been added in that |
| 217s | include some special second |
| 218s | anniversary rewards. |
| 221s | Also |
| 221s | the daily playtime |
| 222s | rewards are going to continue until |
| 223s | February 28th, |
| 225s | and then we're going to talk about a |
| 227s | bunch of different special |
| 228s | anniversary events. |
| 229s | But before we dive in, I just want |
| 230s | to say there's a new event |
| 232s | shop that has a bunch of tabs |
| 234s | in it. So when the update drops |
| 237s | explore those different tabs |
| 239s | and kind of figure out where you can |
| 241s | get some of those rewards from. |
| 242s | We'll cover that below, but just |
| 244s | want to say there's going to be a |
| 246s | bunch of tabs in there. |
| 248s | One for tokens |
| 250s | that come from the Arkesia Festival, |
| 253s | and there's going to be two tabs for |
| 254s | that, one for the general rewards |
| 256s | of all the progression items, and |
| 258s | another tab that has the special |
| 260s | rewards. |
| 261s | And then on top of that, there's |
| 262s | going to be, a tab for the Twinkle |
| 265s | Twinkle |
| 265s | Shop, which is the Golden Frog. |
| 267s | So let's go over some of those |
| 269s | events now. |
| 271s | So the first big event is going to |
| 272s | be the Arkesia Festival. |
| 274s | Players are going to be able to take |
| 275s | art in celebrating lost art second |
| 277s | anniversary at the |
| 278s | Festival. |
| 279s | And every two weeks, there's |
| 280s | going to be new quests for players |
| 282s | to participate in, keeping things |
| 284s | fun and fresh as you earn tokens |
| 286s | to trade in for valuable rewards. |
| 288s | So the first two weeks |
| 289s | are going to be the What I'm Looking |
| 292s | For, which is where you find |
| 293s | items matching random buffs |
| 295s | appearing overhead. |
| 296s | In the event |
| 298s | three types of random |
| 299s | buffs are going to spawn at any one |
| 300s | time and players can find |
| 302s | the identical items to acquire |
| 304s | points. |
| 305s | So the next two weeks after that, |
| 306s | starting on February 21st, |
| 308s | are going to be the Run Pinata Run |
| 310s | event |
| 312s | where players |
| 313s | participating the event will turn |
| 314s | into a giant pinata and race |
| 316s | against each other. |
| 318s | It's going to start off with a brief |
| 320s | introduction about the controls. |
| 321s | And then from there |
| 323s | use the skills provided |
| 324s | in order to get first place |
| 326s | in the race. |
| 328s | The final two weeks |
| 329s | of the event |
| 330s | starting on March |
| 331s | 6th |
| 332s | are going to be the |
| 333s | Break the Gourd |
| 334s | and a Heart Full of Love event. |
| 337s | In the |
| 338s | Break the Gourd event, players can |
| 340s | use |
| 341s | naughty and nice pinata candy to |
| 342s | break the gourd. |
| 344s | As long as you do it in time to get |
| 346s | second anniversary tokens. |
| 348s | And then after that, you can gather |
| 349s | around to celebrate the second |
| 351s | anniversary of Lost Ark together |
| 353s | through some fun and special |
| 354s | interactions. |
| 355s | And all players who participate will |
| 357s | receive the tokens |
| 359s | as rewards. |
| 360s | So let's talk a little bit about the |
| 362s | rewards. |
| 363s | You're going to be earning event |
| 364s | tokens like in previous events |
| 366s | in Lost Ark, and you can earn |
| 368s | those by |
| 369s | clearing Chaos Dungeons or Guardian |
| 370s | Raids, from daily playtime rewards, |
| 373s | and also from participating |
| 375s | in the events. |
| 376s | There's going to be a ton of the |
| 378s | standard Lost Ark event rewards |
| 380s | like progression, honing materials, |
| 382s | card packs. |
| 384s | But we've. |
| 385s | also included some really special |
| 386s | things. You're actually going to |
| 388s | be able to get a set of the |
| 389s | Providence and Unity skins. |
| 392s | We'll have those showcased a little |
| 393s | bit later in the video |
| 394s | if you want to see the cosmetics |
| 396s | showcase. |
| 397s | But they're. |
| 398s | really |
| 398s | cool and I'm super excited to get my |
| 399s | hands on some of those skins. |
| 401s | So in |
| 402s | Addition to the Arkesian Festival |
| 404s | event, we |
| 405s | have a brand new event in the West, |
| 407s | which is going to be called the |
| 409s | Birthday Bash event. |
| 411s | So this is going to be a special one |
| 412s | that takes players on a trip down |
| 413s | memory lane from the last year |
| 415s | and leads them toward |
| 418s | earning some |
| 419s | cool rewards by |
| 421s | re-experiencing those iconic pieces |
| 422s | of lost art content that I've |
| 423s | released over the last year. |
| 425s | We really hope |
| 426s | that this event is going to help |
| 427s | players progress towards some, |
| 429s | upcoming content like Thaemine in |
| 431s | a few months |
| 432s | or help players that are still |
| 433s | working |
| 434s | to catch up to Voldis |
| 436s | and other existing content. |
| 439s | But we really wanted to give some |
| 440s | special rewards and celebrate the |
| 441s | community with this event. |
| 443s | In the Birthday Bash event, players |
| 445s | are going to complete missions in |
| 447s | Brelshaza Hard Mode, |
| 450s | Kayangel Hard Mode, |
| 452s | Akkan Normal and Hard Mode, and then |
| 452s | Ivory Tower of Chaos, Normal |
| 455s | and Hard Mode, and then also from |
| 456s | completing Chaos Dungeons and |
| 458s | Guardian Raids. |
| 459s | You're going to be able to earn |
| 459s | honing |
| 461s | materials, gold, cards, |
| 463s | card XP, accessories, ability |
| 465s | stones and amulets. |
| 467s | Similar to |
| 467s | previous events, the more gates you |
| 469s | clear during the course of the |
| 470s | event, |
| 471s | the more missions |
| 472s | you complete and |
| 473s | rewards you'll earn. |
| 474s | So should be a fun way of |
| 476s | celebrating some of the cool raids |
| 477s | that have released over the last year |
| 480s | while earning some beefy extra |
| 482s | rewards for doing so. |
| 483s | So one of the final events, which we |
| 484s | know players have been asking for, |
| 486s | is going to be the reintroduction of |
| 488s | the Golden Frog or in-game, |
| 490s | the Twinkle Twinkle Exchange |
| 493s | shop. |
| 494s | So it's going to be an event Gold |
| 495s | shop, where players can exchange |
| 497s | gold for valuable rewards such |
| 499s | as honing |
| 500s | materials, legendary engravings, |
| 502s | card packs, and a ton more. |
| 504s | Some of the |
| 505s | packages that you buy will include |
| 507s | a toad token, which can be redeemed |
| 509s | for additional special items. |
| 512s | The Twinkle Twinkle Shop will be |
| 513s | included |
| 514s | in the Event Shop category, |
| 515s | alongside the second Anniversary |
| 517s | Event Shop, and the |
| 519s | Golden Frog or Twinkle Twinkle |
| 521s | Shop is going to stay in-game |
| 523s | until March 6th. |
| 526s | Another fun thing that you're going |
| 527s | to see added into the game |
| 529s | are the winning selections |
| 531s | from the second Anniversary Loading |
| 533s | Screen Art competition. |
| 535s | We selected three winners who |
| 537s | created some really cool community |
| 538s | art. |
| 539s | So keep an eye out for it after the |
| 541s | update. |
| 542s | Let's, take a look |
| 543s | at the three winners right here. |
| 560s | There were a ton more awesome |
| 561s | submissions and picking the winners, |
| 563s | I know it was super hard for the |
| 564s | team. |
| 565s | So if you're curious to see some |
| 567s | more |
| 568s | of the awesome art that was created, |
| 570s | go take a look in the official Lost |
| 571s | Ark discord because there's some |
| 573s | really cool community stuff in |
| 574s | there. |
| 575s | All right, let's dive into the store |
| 577s | updates. |
| 578s | So we're gonna have the Providence |
| 579s | and Unity skins, which were the |
| 580s | recent |
| 582s | cosmetics designed by the community |
| 583s | in |
| 583s | Korea. |
| 584s | They're going to arrive packaged, |
| 586s | as I said, as the Providence and |
| 587s | Unity skins that are also |
| 589s | going to include the Jalopy Mount |
| 592s | the Moon Fox pets, and |
| 594s | the |
| 594s | Wallpaper |
| 595s | Night of Glittering Memories. |
| 598s | So you'll be able to celebrate |
| 599s | the anniversary in style by |
| 601s | picking some of those up from the |
| 603s | event with the event tokens, |
| 605s | and then also filling out your |
| 607s | collection with any more that you'd |
| 608s | want to purchase from the store as |
| 609s | well. |
| 610s | So let's take a look at all of those |
| 612s | cosmetics. |
| 694s | Awesome! I'm super excited for |
| 696s | these skins. Personally, I think a |
| 698s | ton of them are awesome. |
| 700s | I really like a lot of the weapons |
| 701s | in particular, so I'm excited to |
| 703s | get the ones from the event store |
| 705s | and then also pick up a few on the |
| 706s | side. |
| 708s | But those |
| 708s | aren't the only |
| 709s | cosmetics that are going to be coming |
| 710s | this month. |
| 712s | In |
| 713s | celebration, |
| 713s | we know |
| 714s | that some players |
| 715s | missed out on some top skins from |
| 717s | the last year |
| 718s | or two, so we're super excited. |
| 719s | to bring in some vault skins |
| 721s | that we know, players have been |
| 724s | wanting or, you know, looking |
| 726s | forward to trying to pick up |
| 728s | at some point, but may not even |
| 730s | have been found on the auction |
| 731s | house. |
| 732s | So for the first four weeks, we're |
| 733s | going to be |
| 734s | rereleasing some fan favorite skins. |
| 736s | You can hurry up and get your |
| 737s | hands on them. They're only going to |
| 738s | be available for that one week |
| 740s | before |
| 741s | they |
| 741s | disappear back into the vault. |
| 743s | Week one is going to be the |
| 745s | Midsummer Nights series, |
| 746s | which were the 2022 Swimsuit |
| 748s | Skins. |
| 750s | Week two is going to be the Festival |
| 751s | and Ball series, which |
| 753s | were the 2022 holiday skins, |
| 755s | and week |
| 756s | three is |
| 757s | going to be the Neon Wingsuit |
| 759s | Series. |
| 760s | And then we're capping it off with |
| 762s | Week four. |
| 763s | Is going to have the Wave, Sand, |
| 765s | Wind and Beach |
| 767s | swimsuit series, which |
| 769s | were the 2023 swimsuits, |
| 771s | and then the Midnight Summer |
| 773s | time series, which was the special |
| 776s | Korean 2023 swimsuits |
| 778s | that we brought over simultaneously. |
| 782s | All right. And a few final |
| 784s | general changes. |
| 785s | We've also made improvements to |
| 786s | decrease the |
| 787s | short client freeze that could occur |
| 789s | during login, server connection |
| 791s | and environment load. |
| 793s | I'm personally excited for that |
| 794s | change and fix. |
| 796s | And then another change |
| 798s | is going to be |
| 799s | EAC related server |
| 801s | code has been updated to change |
| 803s | the game |
| 804s | access flow between character |
| 806s | selection |
| 807s | to game world entrance. |
| 808s | Before, if EAC |
| 810s | authentication |
| 811s | had not been done during the |
| 813s | character selection, the game client |
| 815s | would shut down. |
| 816s | Now, |
| 817s | if the |
| 818s | authentication has not been done during |
| 819s | character selection, players are |
| 820s | just going to be returned to the |
| 821s | server selection |
| 823s | screen. |
| 823s | So you don't have to go through that |
| 825s | boot up sequence. |
| 826s | And the last change is going to be |
| 828s | the purchase limit for the level |
| 830s | complete pack. |
| 831s | The level 50 ones has |
| 833s | been changed from roster bound to |
| 834s | account bound. |
| 836s | And that wraps it up for the changes |
| 839s | arriving in the 2 Extreme |
| 841s | update. |
| 843s | Well, that wraps up the details |
| 845s | in the 2 Extreme update. |
| 848s | And it, it |
| 849s | has been a crazy two |
| 851s | years already. It's flown by for me |
| 853s | personally. |
| 855s | We have a lot of passion on our |
| 857s | side. I personally have a ton of |
| 859s | passion for the game, you know, |
| 860s | working on it and also feeling like |
| 862s | a member of the community and |
| 864s | getting really excited for these |
| 865s | updates coming into the West. |
| 867s | We really want this to feel like a |
| 869s | celebration and sharing some of that |
| 871s | passion back with the community. |
| 873s | We've had, you know, some ups and |
| 874s | downs over the last year, in the |
| 876s | last two years. |
| 878s | But it's been a lot of fun and |
| 880s | a really fun journey. |
| 882s | And we're super excited to, |
| 884s | you know, make |
| 884s | that feel, make |
| 885s | this month feel like a community |
| 887s | celebration. We don't want it to |
| 888s | feel like we're just throwing |
| 889s | ourselves a birthday party. |
| 890s | We want to, you know, share in this |
| 892s | with the community. |
| 893s | And, you know, a lot of us are like |
| 894s | myself, members of that community as |
| 896s | well, who are, you know, avid |
| 898s | players and fans. |
| 899s | So it should be a lot of fun. |
| 901s | And we're super excited to celebrate |
| 903s | with you. |
| 904s | And we'd also just, you know, love |
| 906s | to thank the community for |
| 907s | everything, for the passion, |
| 909s | the support, the carrying |
| 912s | our team members through raids |
| 913s | without knowing it, all of that. |
| 915s | It's been a lot of fun, and we're |
| 917s | very appreciative of the feedback, |
| 919s | the passion and |
| 922s | everything that the players do |
| 924s | for the game. |
| 926s | It's been a lot of fun, and we're |
| 927s | excited to see even |
| 929s | more coming forward. |
| 931s | So for the Community |
| 932s | Question this month, which |
| 934s | character are you going |
| 937s | to redeem your free |
| 939s | Unity and Providence skins on? |
| 940s | There's so many cool ones. |
| 942s | It's going to be a tough decision, |
| 943s | but we want to know which ones you |
| 945s | think are the coolest or which ones |
| 946s | you know you're planning to |
| 948s | to redeem. |
| 949s | For me personally, it's a tough |
| 950s | choice. |
| 951s | I think I'm going to go with my |
| 952s | Glavier. |
| 953s | I main swapped to it a couple |
| 955s | months ago and need to build |
| 957s | up my skin collection, so I think |
| 959s | that's where I'm going. But I'd love |
| 960s | to hear from you what you're |
| 962s | planning on using it on? |
| 964s | As |
| 965s | always, if you could like and |
| 967s | subscribe to the video, |
| 968s | it's super helpful. |

| 970s | the right direction with this type |
| 972s | of community content and that you |
| 973s | enjoyed it, and we should keep doing |
| 974s | it. |
| 977s | And as always, if you want |
| 979s | the |
| 980s | full patch notes |

| 989s | there in a day or two for a special |
| 991s | anniversary article that might |
| 993s | have the details for a |
| 995s | special surprise for all the players |
| 998s | coming. |
| 998s | So I'll leave you with that little |
| 1000s | teaser. |

| 1003s | see you in Arkesia. |
