| 4s | Hello, Heroes of Arkesia. |
|---|---|
| 6s | Back again with another episode |
| 8s | of Patch Notes with Henry. |
| 10s | Today, we're going to be covering |
| 11s | the November Update, which is |
| 13s | the Soul Harvest Update |
| 15s | has some cool stuff. |
| 16s | We have a new advanced class with |
| 17s | the Souleater. |
| 19s | We have a bunch of progression |
| 20s | events and other events to help |
| 22s | support players wanting to level |
| 24s | that up or another class. |
| 26s | And we have an absolute ton |
| 28s | of Quality of Life changes. |
| 31s | Today we're going to hit on some of |
| 32s | those highlights for the |
| 33s | Quality of Life changes. |
| 34s | But if you're ever interested in |
| 35s | reading through all the nitty gritty |
| 37s | details, feel free |
| 39s | to read below either on the website |
| 41s | or find the link to the release |
| 43s | notes in the YouTube video. |
| 45s | All right. One of the biggest pieces |
| 47s | of content in this update is, of |
| 48s | course, the Souleater Advanced |
| 50s | class. |
| 51s | It's an assassin subclass |
| 53s | wields a giant scythe to harvest |
| 56s | its enemies' souls |
| 58s | and has some very unique identity |
| 60s | meter skills, such as turning |
| 62s | into the very powerful Deathlord |
| 64s | mode. |
| 65s | There's no better way of showing |
| 67s | this off than just hopping in game |
| 68s | and trying it out. |
| 69s | So let's hop in, check out some of |
| 71s | the abilities, the class Engravings |
| 73s | and what makes this class so cool. |
| 76s | So we have the newest class in |
| 77s | Arkesia. |
| 78s | I'm going to show off some of the |
| 80s | skills, abilities, class Engravings |
| 83s | pretty quickly. |
| 84s | It's not going to be a comprehensive |
| 85s | guide, but just want to give people |
| 87s | an idea of what the class |
| 89s | is, how the two class |
| 91s | Engravings function and how it looks |
| 92s | in combat, because some of the moves |
| 94s | are pretty cool looking. |
| 96s | So let's check it out. |
| 99s | Before we dive into some |
| 101s | of these different identity |
| 103s | meters for the game, one thing |
| 105s | that I want to show off really quick |
| 107s | is the different types of |
| 108s | skills that the Souleater has. |
| 111s | They're grouped into three different |
| 113s | buckets. We have the |
| 115s | Ghast skills. Which are you using |
| 117s | your site for different attacks? |
| 119s | We have the Stygian skills |
| 121s | where you interact with |
| 123s | the dead, you know, as the |
| 125s | Souleater, bringing things back to |
| 127s | life, that |
| 128s | sort of thing. |
| 130s | And then the final category are |
| 132s | your really heavy hitting Deathlord |
| 134s | skills. |
| 136s | And the way that these interact |
| 138s | with your identity meters |
| 140s | at a high level is |
| 142s | when you use your Ghast and |
| 144s | Stygian skills, you're going to |
| 146s | charge up these three different |
| 148s | bars that are called Soul Stones. |
| 151s | And you can use |
| 152s | Soul Stones as a cost |
| 154s | to pay for those really |
| 156s | heavy hitting Deathlord skills. |
| 159s | So you can use Sythe |
| 161s | skills, call things back from the |
| 162s | dead, charge up, use a |
| 164s | big ability. |
| 165s | And that's how the class functions |
| 167s | at base level. |
| 169s | Now, layered on top of that, you |
| 171s | have the Possession Meter. |
| 173s | And this increases |
| 176s | as you use the |
| 178s | heavy hitting Deathlord skills |
| 179s | along with the Stygian skills. |
| 182s | And when you enter this mode, |
| 184s | you become much more powerful. |
| 186s | You have a 13 second |
| 188s | burst window where you're going to |
| 190s | be doing even more increased |
| 192s | damage to your enemies. |
| 194s | And both of the class Engravings |
| 196s | kind of tweak how these two |
| 198s | different class identities |
| 200s | work at a base level. |
| 202s | So let's cover both of those |
| 204s | playstyles quickly and I'll show |
| 206s | off, you know how they function. |
| 208s | All right. The first class engraving |
| 209s | that we're going to cover is Full |
| 211s | Moon Harvester. |
| 213s | And the goal of this engraving is to |
| 214s | make the Souleater feel a bit |
| 216s | more like a burst class |
| 218s | by really emphasizing |
| 220s | that special Deathlord |
| 223s | mode. |
| 224s | So at level three, you |
| 226s | can see the benefits that you're |
| 227s | going to receive are plus 14% |
| 229s | critical rate. |
| 231s | When using Soul Stones, you |
| 233s | recover your Possession Meter |
| 235s | by 5%. |
| 237s | So, you know, filling up your meter |
| 238s | faster. |
| 239s | And when you enter the Deathlord |
| 242s | mode, the cooldown of your |
| 244s | Deathlord skills, those really |
| 246s | big heavy hitting skills reset |
| 248s | and the damage while |
| 250s | in Deathlord mode for those skills |
| 252s | is plus 15% and |
| 254s | their cooldowns -70%. |
| 257s | So you can see when you |
| 260s | activate that mode, you're going |
| 262s | to get those skills off |
| 264s | cooldown and always be ready to go |
| 266s | for for a big first window. |
| 270s | Let's show off, you know, what the |
| 272s | playstyle kind of looks like at a |
| 273s | base level. |
| 274s | All right. So I'm just going to go |
| 276s | through one cycle and show off, |
| 278s | you know, how this |
| 280s | class engraving functions. |
| 282s | At a basic level, you're |
| 284s | just trying to charge up the |
| 286s | Soul Stones to keep, |
| 288s | you know, your Possession Meter |
| 289s | high. Because when you use the |
| 291s | Possession Meter, you get those |
| 293s | Deathlord skills off of cooldown |
| 295s | again, ready to go. |
| 298s | So we can use some Stygian |
| 300s | skills here |
| 303s | along with some of the |
| 305s | Ghast skills to |
| 307s | charge up our Soul Stones. |
| 308s | Then once those are up, we |
| 310s | can use those Soul Stones |
| 312s | to activate the powerful |
| 314s | Deathlord skills. |
| 316s | You can see here the numbers aren't |
| 318s | huge, but that will change |
| 320s | once we enter our burst window. |
| 323s | So we're still just charging up, |
| 325s | charging up. |
| 327s | You can see we almost have it |
| 331s | full once we get off a few more |
| 332s | abilities. |
| 334s | Cool. |
| 335s | So once we activate, |
| 337s | we're going to go into the mode. |
| 338s | We're going to |
| 340s | be able to use three of these |
| 342s | skills so one of each |
| 344s | before the mode ends. |
| 347s | And yeah, let's see what the burst |
| 349s | looks like. |
| 350s | So we, here we go. |
| 354s | Not bad. |
| 355s | Used the Awakening while |
| 357s | we have that extra damage. |
| 360s | And there we go. |
| 363s | Pretty fun. |
| 364s | And then, you know, the goal is |
| 367s | to to pull that off again. |
| 369s | We can use our Soul Stones because |
| 371s | those pulled over from the last time |
| 373s | we actually used the burst |
| 376s | and just keep going and, |
| 378s | you know, work to get that burst |
| 380s | up again. |
| 382s | Let's talk about the |
| 384s | Night's Edge playstyle. |
| 386s | So this one is a bit more focused |
| 388s | on constant uptime |
| 390s | rather than a specific burst mode. |
| 393s | But that being said, it also |
| 395s | does have its own special little |
| 396s | burst mode. |
| 397s | So let's get into the details. |
| 400s | The way that Night's Edge works |
| 402s | is it turns the Possession Meter |
| 403s | into a different meter called the |
| 405s | Edge Meter, which disables |
| 408s | Deathlord mode. |
| 411s | And also rather |
| 413s | than Deathlords skills |
| 415s | using Soul Stones, they don't |
| 417s | consume them until |
| 420s | you've charged up three |
| 422s | Soul Stones and then they |
| 424s | enhance the Deathlord skills and |
| 426s | make them way more |
| 428s | powerful. |
| 431s | So this class is built around |
| 433s | using your |
| 435s | a few more Ghast skills than the |
| 437s | other build along with some Stygian |
| 439s | skills to charge |
| 441s | up your Soul Stones and unleash |
| 443s | the enhanced |
| 446s | Deathlords skills, and then |
| 447s | simultaneously working |
| 449s | to increase your Edge Meter. |
| 452s | And then when the Edge Meter is |
| 454s | full, it automatically activates |
| 456s | to give you the Soul Snatch |
| 458s | debuff. |
| 460s | And when that is given, you |
| 462s | can't use the Deathlord skills |
| 464s | anymore, but it actually does |
| 466s | enhance all of |
| 468s | your Ghast |
| 470s | skills. |
| 471s | So I will show |
| 473s | you off what some of the enhanced |
| 475s | skills look like and take a look |
| 477s | at how this class engraving plays |
| 479s | well. So when you're attacking the |
| 481s | enemy, you can |
| 483s | use your Ghast |
| 485s | skills to start charging up the |
| 487s | Soul Stones. |
| 488s | And I'll show you off what kind of |
| 490s | the difference between having |
| 492s | three Soul Stones for an enhanced |
| 494s | attack look like versus a normal |
| 496s | one. |
| 497s | So let's use a Deathlord skill since |
| 499s | we have two charges of Vestige. |
| 501s | Let's use one here, |
| 503s | 24 mil versus |
| 505s | charging that all the way up and |
| 507s | using it again |
| 510s | or, you know, well over twice |
| 512s | the damage. |
| 514s | Let's keep going. |
| 516s | Charge up. |
| 517s | So now we have another enhanced |
| 518s | attack. |
| 520s | Do a ton of damage with that. |
| 523s | And as you can see, you actually |
| 524s | slowly lose the Edge Meter |
| 526s | so you can intentionally keep |
| 529s | yourself away from hitting that |
| 530s | threshold |
| 532s | or continue to |
| 534s | use all of your skills and enter |
| 536s | that mode intentionally to |
| 538s | enhance your guest skills. |
| 542s | And the enhanced |
| 544s | Deathlords skills actually give more |
| 546s | meter than the non enhanced one. |
| 548s | So you can see there |
| 550s | we gained quite a bit. |
| 553s | So now that we're getting close to |
| 554s | the Edge Meter being full. |
| 556s | We can go ahead and fill that up |
| 557s | with our last skill. |
| 559s | And then while we're in that mode, |
| 561s | use the enhanced Ghast skills |
| 564s | while it's running out, do |
| 566s | a bunch of damage with the |
| 568s | Ghast skills and stygian |
| 569s | skills and then |
| 571s | come out of the mode and we have |
| 574s | Soul Stones ready to go, pop |
| 576s | those off and |
| 578s | just continue, you know, |
| 580s | working to deal |
| 582s | damage as quick as we can. |
| 585s | This class usually uses a |
| 586s | combination of Crit and Swiftness |
| 588s | so that your abilities are coming |
| 590s | off of cooldown faster |
| 592s | and you can keep, you know, that |
| 594s | uptime as optimal |
| 596s | as possible. |
| 598s | Yep. So that is how Knights |
| 599s | Edge works. So now we've taken a |
| 601s | look at how both of the class |
| 602s | Engravings function a little |
| 604s | different, but both playing off of |
| 606s | the element of meter |
| 608s | gain along with balancing |
| 610s | your Soul Stones and how you want to |
| 612s | spend those in combat. |
| 613s | I think it's a really cool class. |
| 615s | Personally, I'm going to try the |
| 618s | specialization version first |
| 620s | with the full moon harvest, but |
| 622s | with engraving support from the |
| 623s | Super Mokoko Express. |
| 625s | I'm definitely going to try both out |
| 627s | in raids and see which one |
| 629s | I end up liking more. |
| 631s | Awesome. Now that we took a look at |
| 633s | the solider, let's hop in and |
| 635s | check out some of the progression |
| 636s | events that we have coming. |
| 638s | There's two major ones. |
| 639s | We're going to have a Super Mokoko |
| 641s | Express event similar |
| 643s | to what we released when the |
| 644s | Aeromancer came out. |
| 645s | And then on top of that, we have a |
| 647s | new progression event called |
| 649s | Path of The Souleater. |
| 650s | While it is named after the |
| 652s | Souleater, it doesn't actually have |
| 653s | to be used on that class. |
| 655s | You can use it on any class you |
| 657s | want. |
| 658s | Once again, I'd like to just show |
| 660s | off some of the rewards, show |
| 661s | you how the UI works so you can get |
| 663s | it easily enabled on your characters |
| 665s | when the update drops. |
| 666s | So let's hop in. |
| 668s | I'll show you the Super Mokoko |
| 669s | Express event first and then we'll |
| 671s | dive into the Path of The Souleater |
| 673s | event. So the November Soul |
| 675s | Harvest update comes with two |
| 676s | different progression events. |
| 678s | We have the Super Mokoko |
| 680s | Express along with |
| 682s | the Path of The Souleater event, |
| 685s | and both of these events can be used |
| 687s | on any character you want. |
| 689s | It doesn't have to be the Souleater, |
| 691s | but for the purposes of this video |
| 693s | and probably when it releases |
| 695s | very soon, I will be activating them |
| 697s | on my Souleater. |
| 699s | So the first one is obviously the |
| 701s | Super Mokoko Express. |
| 703s | This can be activated on a character |
| 705s | from item level 1415 to |
| 707s | 1540. |
| 709s | It's perfect to use once you've used |
| 710s | that South of Vern Power Pass |
| 712s | that gives you the relic gear |
| 715s | and drops you off right at item |
| 716s | level 1415. |
| 718s | So I'm going to activate it on my |
| 720s | Souleater and show you what |
| 722s | some of the different rewards you're |
| 724s | going to get from that are quickly. |
| 725s | And then we'll also do the same for |
| 727s | Path of The Souleater. |
| 728s | Just cover some of the rewards. |
| 730s | And check it out. |
| 731s | All right, here we go. |
| 732s | Let's activate |
| 734s | Souleater Super Mokoko. |
| 736s | It's active until February |
| 738s | 7th. So you have about three |
| 740s | months of all |
| 742s | of the engraving |
| 744s | support |
| 747s | and time to level up the pass. |
| 750s | So you can choose the basic settings |
| 752s | right when you start off. |
| 753s | This will help you get started with |
| 755s | a build very quickly. |
| 758s | I'm going to, |
| 760s | Let's go with Full Moon. |
| 762s | Try out the the burst. |
| 764s | So right, right off the bat it'll |
| 765s | give you some recommended |
| 766s | Engravings, gems support |
| 769s | and then gear that gives |
| 771s | you the stat that's, |
| 773s | you know, most valuable for that |
| 775s | build. So for this case |
| 777s | Spec and Crit and |
| 779s | then if you go Night's Edge, you can |
| 780s | see that switches over to a |
| 782s | swift build along |
| 784s | with different Engravings and you |
| 786s | can change the Engravings later |
| 788s | in the engraving support menu. |
| 790s | But this is just helping you get |
| 792s | right into the gameplay |
| 794s | immediately. |
| 795s | Cool. |
| 797s | I think for this one, I've already |
| 798s | done some build set up. |
| 800s | So this helps you |
| 802s | figure out your different skill |
| 803s | levels, all sorts of things. |
| 804s | If you've already set that up or |
| 805s | know what you want to do separately. |
| 808s | You can either click auto apply to |
| 810s | apply all of these settings to your |
| 811s | character or click the only receive |
| 813s | items and it'll give you |
| 815s | all that items and let you do some |
| 817s | of the setup on your own. |
| 819s | So let's receive our items |
| 822s | and then right off the bat, we have |
| 823s | access to the event. |
| 825s | We can start claiming our rewards. |
| 828s | We have done the Super Mococo |
| 829s | Express before. |
| 830s | So if you've been around Lost Ark |
| 832s | for a while, you probably are pretty |
| 833s | familiar with what you're going to |
| 834s | receive. |
| 835s | But if you're new and |
| 837s | want to check it out, you can see |
| 839s | at each level you're going to be |
| 840s | getting honor shards, silver |
| 843s | and honing material pouches. |
| 845s | And as you progress through |
| 847s | these item levels and kind of make |
| 849s | that leap once you hit 1490 |
| 851s | and need to receive the next |
| 853s | tier of honing materials, |
| 856s | you can see that those materials, |
| 859s | you know, mature alongside the pass. |
| 861s | So every time you level up, |
| 863s | you're getting valuable stuff. |
| 865s | You can see the honor shards |
| 866s | increase, the amount of silver |
| 868s | increases. |
| 869s | There's some gold sprinkled in |
| 871s | there. |
| 872s | And then when you reach the end, |
| 875s | you get a particularly valuable |
| 877s | reward, not only in terms |
| 879s | of the items |
| 882s | from here, |
| 884s | but also at the very end. |
| 886s | You get this special chest, which |
| 887s | has some more powerful |
| 889s | gems, some great honing |
| 891s | books, 150 |
| 894s | pheons really sets you up. |
| 896s | So I'm going to quickly hone through |
| 897s | this so I can get up |
| 899s | to the item level required to show |
| 900s | off Path of The Souleater. |
| 921s | Now. We missed a one tap. |
| 933s | Cool. So now that we've upgraded |
| 934s | through one level, |
| 937s | we can go in and |
| 939s | claim the next reward. |
| 940s | So that was 1430. |
| 943s | Then once we reached 1445, |
| 945s | next one, so on and so forth, |
| 947s | all the way through the pass. |
| 949s | Okay. So once you finish your pass, |
| 951s | make sure you claim this |
| 953s | reward, because this is the big one |
| 956s | up here at the end. |
| 956s | It's going to be after you claim, |
| 959s | you know, all the other ones |
| 961s | get those valuable items as well. |
| 963s | And then we get the claim, the big |
| 965s | one, Level seven gems, bunch |
| 967s | of cards. |
| 969s | Legendary selector pack |
| 971s | and Pheons. |
| 973s | So much more. |
| 975s | But yeah, once you've once |
| 978s | you've maxed that out, |
| 980s | it's a good time to decide what |
| 982s | character you want to use |
| 984s | your Path of The Souleater event |
| 986s | on. |
| 987s | It can be used on any character |
| 988s | between 1490 |
| 990s | and below 1610. |
| 992s | So maybe you have a main that you've |
| 994s | pushed up. You're missing some |
| 995s | shards, missing some other items, |
| 997s | and you want to continue that push. |
| 999s | Feel free to do that. |
| 1000s | It's called Path of The Souleater, |
| 1002s | since it's releasing with the |
| 1003s | Souleater, but you certainly don't |
| 1005s | have to use it on that character. |
| 1007s | I also think it's really cool that |
| 1008s | you can mix and match the |
| 1010s | Super Mokoko Express and the |
| 1013s | Path of The Souleater. You don't |
| 1014s | have to use them on the same |
| 1015s | character. |
| 1016s | You can use one to get |
| 1018s | a character up, get those rewards, |
| 1020s | and this on another character you're |
| 1022s | interested in pushing even further, |
| 1024s | or use them on the same character |
| 1025s | and just work to get that character |
| 1028s | right into the end game as well. |
| 1031s | So we can go ahead and activate it |
| 1032s | on our Souleater. |
| 1033s | We got it up to 1555 |
| 1035s | with all that honing and |
| 1037s | can start taking advantage |
| 1039s | of the really cool |
| 1041s | rewards in here. |
| 1044s | So just to give you an overview of |
| 1046s | how this event works, |
| 1048s | it's somewhat similar to the |
| 1050s | Super Mokoko, where you're working |
| 1052s | your way through a track |
| 1053s | as you level up and earn different |
| 1056s | rewards. |
| 1057s | You can see that down here |
| 1059s | 15, 40, 50, 60, |
| 1062s | 70, 80. |
| 1063s | And then once again, |
| 1065s | a special final reward |
| 1067s | with some pretty |
| 1069s | juicy rewards in there, too. |
| 1073s | So you can go through claim |
| 1075s | these as you hit those levels. |
| 1077s | They're going to have not only |
| 1079s | useful hunting materials, |
| 1081s | but other things. |
| 1082s | You can see the light spears in |
| 1084s | there, for example, to start |
| 1085s | upgrading your ability stone. |
| 1086s | And |
| 1089s | as you progress through these, |
| 1091s | you know, lots of silver, lots of |
| 1093s | honor shards, you should be able to |
| 1095s | get your character level |
| 1097s | up really quickly. |
| 1099s | The other cool thing is, if this is |
| 1101s | on a new character that you haven't |
| 1104s | advanced through and gotten all the |
| 1106s | gear from yet, when you |
| 1108s | are clearing some of these in-game |
| 1109s | raids, you're actually going to be |
| 1111s | getting way more of the materials |
| 1113s | from those raids to quickly level |
| 1116s | up your gear as well |
| 1118s | for crafting the new gear. |
| 1119s | You can see here |
| 1121s | clearing Gates of |
| 1123s | Brelshaza give you way more phantom |
| 1125s | intentions 40 for |
| 1126s | each of these missions. |
| 1127s | As you break through those gates, |
| 1129s | you can tap over here |
| 1131s | and get the Empyrean of |
| 1133s | Contemplations from |
| 1135s | Kayangel to upgrade to that level |
| 1136s | three set bonus. |
| 1138s | And remember, with the change |
| 1140s | from, I think one or two months |
| 1142s | ago, you don't have to level |
| 1144s | up to level two set |
| 1146s | effect before hitting level |
| 1148s | three now. |
| 1149s | So with these, you can jump straight |
| 1150s | to level three and just |
| 1152s | get your character really geared up |
| 1154s | for that endgame. |
| 1156s | And this actually goes all the way |
| 1158s | to Akkan |
| 1160s | with being able to clear up |
| 1161s | to 12 Akkan gates and earning |
| 1164s | a ton more Eye of Decays |
| 1166s | to get that, you know, that |
| 1168s | top tier ancient gear |
| 1170s | as soon as possible. |
| 1172s | So yeah, really awesome |
| 1175s | event that I'm glad we were able to |
| 1176s | bring in. I think this will be great |
| 1178s | for both players |
| 1179s | pushing into Endgame |
| 1182s | or those that just want, |
| 1183s | you know, a boost of rewards as |
| 1185s | they start looking towards December |
| 1188s | and Voldis arriving next month as |
| 1189s | well. So a lot to look |
| 1191s | forward to here |
| 1193s | for new Souleater mains and veteran |
| 1195s | players alike. |
| 1197s | Just one final thing to note that's |
| 1199s | important. |
| 1200s | This event also goes until |
| 1203s | February 7th, 2024. |
| 1206s | So just make sure you're progressing |
| 1208s | and claim all of these awesome |
| 1210s | rewards before then. |
| 1212s | So one thing we know players |
| 1214s | have been really interested to hear |
| 1215s | about is our plan for reconnecting |
| 1218s | Jumpstart servers back into the |
| 1219s | server set that they're from, and |
| 1221s | we're actually going to be conducting |
| 1223s | that merge with the November |
| 1225s | update. |
| 1226s | So how that works is the |
| 1228s | server isn't going to be merged into |
| 1230s | another server. |
| 1231s | Rather, the server is just going to |
| 1232s | be reconnected in the region |
| 1234s | that it's already in. |
| 1235s | So for each region, |
| 1237s | the server will just come online |
| 1239s | like any other server would in that |
| 1241s | region, meaning that it's |
| 1242s | reconnected to the auction house, |
| 1244s | party finder and all the other |
| 1246s | systems that were previously |
| 1248s | isolated. |
| 1249s | So now you'll be able to play with |
| 1250s | people in the whole region, have |
| 1251s | access to all the items listed on |
| 1253s | the marketplace and auction house |
| 1255s | and otherwise be able to play |
| 1257s | with everyone in the region. |
| 1259s | We're excited to see how far players |
| 1261s | have progressed in Jumpstart and we |
| 1263s | feel that it's the right time to, |
| 1265s | you know, release them into the wild |
| 1267s | as they've grown up and are ready |
| 1268s | to enter. Some end game raids, |
| 1271s | have access to all of the different |
| 1273s | items that they might not |
| 1275s | have had on their auction house and |
| 1276s | otherwise continue in their |
| 1278s | Lost Ark journey. |
| 1279s | Another important piece of content |
| 1281s | arriving in this update are the |
| 1283s | Prologue quests for Voldis, |
| 1285s | definitely something you'll want to |
| 1286s | complete before that drops in |
| 1288s | December next month. |
| 1290s | The quest you'll want to pick up is |
| 1291s | called MadNick's Call. |
| 1293s | You can find it from the Shushire |
| 1295s | Mercenary NPC in |
| 1297s | most major cities. |
| 1298s | Or if you're In Elgacia, you |
| 1300s | can pick it up from the Transparent |
| 1302s | Mirror. |
| 1304s | There are also a few prerequisite |
| 1306s | quests you'll need to complete |
| 1307s | before doing the Voldis Prologue, |
| 1310s | which are the Twilight Hill |
| 1312s | world quest in Pleccia |
| 1314s | and the Elpon World Quest in |
| 1316s | Shushire. So once you've completed |
| 1317s | those, you can check out this new |
| 1318s | quest and you're good to go. |
| 1320s | So for events this month |
| 1323s | before we go into some of the |
| 1323s | changes to the existing ones and |
| 1325s | some of the new events, just wanted |
| 1327s | to give a quick reminder that we |
| 1328s | have three progression events |
| 1330s | drawing to an end since we have |
| 1332s | those new progression events we |
| 1333s | covered earlier coming into the game |
| 1335s | in this update. |
| 1336s | So last call for any rewards. |
| 1338s | You want to make sure you claim |
| 1339s | those before downtime for the new |
| 1340s | update for either the |
| 1343s | South of Vern Power Pass |
| 1345s | from when the Aeromancer launched, |
| 1347s | the Super Mokoko Express |
| 1349s | event and |
| 1351s | the Story Express event |
| 1353s | all from that prior update. |
| 1355s | All of those are coming to a close, |
| 1356s | but we have those new ones coming |
| 1357s | in. |
| 1358s | On top of that, the Event Guardian |
| 1360s | raid will continue |
| 1363s | throughout this month. |
| 1364s | There's one small adjustment coming |
| 1366s | in for that. |
| 1367s | We're actually going to be adding in |
| 1368s | ancient gold coins, which |
| 1370s | can be redeemed for silver for any |
| 1372s | players that have an excess of those |
| 1374s | event coins that they've stocked up. |
| 1376s | Just so you have an outlet for those |
| 1377s | and can have a little extra |
| 1379s | silver maybe as you hone up your new |
| 1382s | Souleater advanced class. |
| 1383s | So in addition to the events ending |
| 1385s | and the tweaks to the current |
| 1387s | event, we actually have the daily |
| 1389s | playtime event coming back for |
| 1391s | this update. |
| 1392s | Great way for players to earn |
| 1395s | honing materials, silver and card |
| 1397s | packs just for playing Lost Ark |
| 1398s | every day. |
| 1399s | We know it was a fan favorite from |
| 1401s | when we had it in the game a few |
| 1402s | months ago, so we're excited to be |
| 1404s | bringing that back. |
| 1405s | For players looking to progress |
| 1406s | their Souleater or just earn rewards |
| 1408s | as they play Lost Ark. |
| 1409s | Along with that, we've also |
| 1411s | refreshed the standard daily log |
| 1413s | in reward track and hot time |
| 1414s | events for the month as well. |
| 1417s | For store updates this month, we |
| 1419s | have two new cosmetic collections |
| 1420s | coming into the game, along with |
| 1422s | some special cosmetics just for the |
| 1424s | Souleater. |
| 1425s | We have some cosmetic |
| 1427s | showcases prepared to show off |
| 1429s | all of those videos, so let's go |
| 1431s | through all of the different ones |
| 1432s | coming in. |
| 1434s | So the first cosmetic collection we |
| 1435s | have are the Gothic skins. |
| 1437s | These include |
| 1439s | a nocturnal cat pet and |
| 1441s | a Rose Thorn mount as |
| 1443s | well. Let's check them out. |
| 1475s | The next collection that's coming |
| 1477s | alongside the Gothic skins |
| 1479s | are actually the Fourth Anniversary |
| 1482s | skins from Korea. |
| 1483s | In our version, they'll be called |
| 1485s | the Song of Adventure Skins, |
| 1487s | and they're really cool ones |
| 1489s | designed by the community. |
| 1491s | We know players have been really |
| 1492s | looking forward to these and we're |
| 1493s | super excited to be able to bring |
| 1495s | them in. |
| 1496s | Just one quick note before we play |
| 1498s | the showcase video. |
| 1499s | There's also a special skin for the |
| 1501s | Slayer that's been developed since |
| 1503s | when they launched in Korea, the |
| 1505s | Slayer wasn't available. |
| 1507s | Let's check those out as well. |
| 1538s | And for all those excited to make |
| 1540s | their Souleater, we have some |
| 1541s | special cosmetics for that as well. |
| 1543s | We have the launch skins |
| 1545s | for the Souleater, which |
| 1548s | include a package with a special |
| 1550s | title. |
| 1551s | And then on top of that, we're also |
| 1553s | bringing the Season Two |
| 1556s | Yoz's Jar Leap Skins for the |
| 1558s | Souleater. For players that are |
| 1559s | looking to get either an epic |
| 1561s | or legendary skin from that set. |
| 1563s | In the showcase video, we're only |
| 1565s | going to be showing the legendary |
| 1566s | ones because there's a ton of epic |
| 1567s | ones available, but you'll be able |
| 1569s | to see those along with the launch |
| 1571s | skins. So let's see that. |
| 1604s | All right. So a big chunk of the |
| 1606s | changes arriving in this update are |
| 1608s | Quality of Life adjustments. |
| 1609s | There's an absolute ton of them. |
| 1611s | We're going to cover a few that we |
| 1613s | know players have been looking |
| 1614s | forward to. |
| 1616s | And then after that, I'm going to |
| 1618s | start going through some of the |
| 1619s | categories of changes, but not |
| 1621s | dive into every nitty gritty detail |
| 1624s | and change. |
| 1624s | We'll save that for players that |
| 1626s | want to go read through those |
| 1627s | changes in the full release notes. |
| 1630s | But for here, we'll just do a |
| 1631s | highlight reel. |
| 1632s | The first thing that we know players |
| 1633s | have really been looking forward to |
| 1635s | and are excited to bring in are the |
| 1637s | adjustments to the Ocean Liner, |
| 1639s | which lets players travel |
| 1642s | from the |
| 1644s | world map directly. |
| 1645s | Great, great update for |
| 1647s | traversing through Arkesia. |
| 1649s | I'm going to show you how it works |
| 1650s | really quickly in-game, and then we |
| 1652s | can do a rapid fire through the rest |
| 1654s | of the Quality of Life changes. |
| 1656s | The one thing we know players have |
| 1658s | really been looking forward to are |
| 1660s | the changes to the Ocean Liner. |
| 1662s | So I'm just going to show it off |
| 1663s | quickly so you know where to find it |
| 1664s | in the UI when the update |
| 1666s | drops. |
| 1668s | Now you can use it from anywhere |
| 1669s | in the map. |
| 1671s | You can just open up your |
| 1672s | map by pressing M |
| 1674s | and click board Ocean Liner. |
| 1677s | You can choose where to board it |
| 1679s | from. |
| 1680s | We can click here |
| 1682s | and see that now we |
| 1683s | can go anywhere in Arkesia |
| 1686s | from North Vern |
| 1688s | directly and board the |
| 1690s | Ocean Liner from |
| 1692s | wherever. |
| 1693s | You don't have to talk to the guy in |
| 1695s | the ports anymore. |
| 1696s | So hopefully this will be a good |
| 1698s | Quality of Life change as people are |
| 1700s | venturing around, you know, |
| 1701s | gathering |
| 1704s | different pieces of horizontal |
| 1705s | content. |
| 1706s | And the other key part |
| 1708s | is you don't have to board that |
| 1710s | Ocean Liner anymore, as you can see |
| 1711s | there. |
| 1712s | I just directly hopped |
| 1714s | on the Ocean Liner and |
| 1717s | fast traveled over. |
| 1719s | No more animation of waiting |
| 1721s | on the boat. |
| 1722s | You can just go ahead and |
| 1725s | take the Ocean Liner directly. |
| 1727s | So speeds up that process as well. |
| 1730s | Now that we saw the Ocean Liner |
| 1731s | change, I'm going to go through the |
| 1733s | different categories of |
| 1734s | Quality of Life changes. |
| 1736s | There might be a few favorites or |
| 1737s | ones that we think players will be |
| 1739s | excited for that I'll point out |
| 1740s | quickly in here. |
| 1741s | But if you want to dive into all the |
| 1742s | details once again, check out the |
| 1744s | full release notes. |
| 1746s | So to start off, we have party |
| 1748s | assembly and operations |
| 1749s | improvements. |
| 1750s | This includes some great party |
| 1752s | changes such as party numbers are |
| 1753s | not mixed anymore when the party |
| 1755s | leader changes and in notification |
| 1757s | is displayed mid screen when |
| 1759s | changing Party Leader. |
| 1762s | Some more rapid fire categories. |
| 1764s | We have potion item |
| 1765s | registration options, guild |
| 1768s | updates, skins |
| 1770s | and skin crafting updates, |
| 1772s | music UI improvements, |
| 1774s | stronghold and life skill updates, |
| 1777s | UI updates. |
| 1779s | A personal favorite there is being |
| 1781s | able to use the interaction wheel |
| 1782s | while in observer mode. |
| 1784s | We also have tooltip updates |
| 1786s | and item use updates. |
| 1788s | That was well over 1000 words of |
| 1790s | release notes summed up very |
| 1791s | quickly. |
| 1792s | If any of those categories interest |
| 1794s | you, go check out the full |
| 1796s | notes. |
| 1797s | We're going to do rapid fire through |
| 1799s | the general settings as well. |
| 1801s | There's a ton of small general |
| 1802s | updates. |
| 1803s | Some highlights include unlocking |
| 1805s | the Pelccia Knowledge Transfer, |
| 1806s | which you'll need to complete before |
| 1808s | you venture out to Voldis. |
| 1809s | We've extended character slots |
| 1811s | from 24 to 30 |
| 1814s | and there are also some content |
| 1815s | balance changes for the Argos Abyss |
| 1818s | raid level one to four Guardian |
| 1820s | raids and Tier two abyssal |
| 1822s | dungeons. |
| 1823s | Alongside that counter difficulty |
| 1824s | has also been decreased in earlier |
| 1826s | Guardian raids and abyssal dungeons. |
| 1829s | So yeah, those are some of the |
| 1830s | highlights from the general updates. |
| 1831s | There's a few more in there, some |
| 1833s | small class changes, class UI |
| 1835s | changes, things |
| 1837s | like not being able to PVP |
| 1839s | in the Rowen field boss area |
| 1842s | anymore. |
| 1843s | If you're interested in the nitty |
| 1844s | gritty, once again, feel |
| 1846s | free to check it out in the full |
| 1847s | release notes. |
| 1848s | All right, Well, that wraps up |
| 1850s | today's episode of Patch Notes with |
| 1851s | Henry. |
