What Changed: Overview

This update touches almost every system:

• New Dungeon Keys — Create dungeons on demand
• Hunter Quests — New purple quest tier
• UI Overhaul — Completely redesigned inventory
• Movement System — New movement mechanics
• Rarity System — Shadows and items now use rarities instead of ranks
• Equipment Levels — Gear and shadows now have levels

Expanded Tutorial System

The tutorial got a major upgrade. Now it actually guides you properly:

1. Open your Achievements menu
2. Press Track on any achievement
3. An arrow appears guiding you to the objective

Dungeon Difficulty Selection

You can now choose dungeon difficulty:

Difficulty	Level Requirement	Rewards
Easy	Low	Basic
Normal	Medium	Standard
Hard	High	Best drops

Tip: Higher difficulty = better rewards. Classic risk-reward system. Push the hardest difficulty you can clear efficiently.

New Movement System

The movement mechanics have been completely reworked. It feels different—some players love it, some need time to adjust.

Weapon Upgrade System: Stars

The old upgrade system is gone. Weapons now use a star-based system:

• Each weapon has star levels
• Merging increases stars
• Weapons received a significant buff across the board

Redesigned UI

The inventory UI got a complete makeover:

• Better organization — Items are easier to find
• Cleaner presentation — Less clutter
• New key section — Dungeon keys have their own tab

Dungeon Keys: Game Changer

This is the biggest quality-of-life improvement. Dungeon Keys let you create dungeons instantly—no more waiting for spawns.

How to get keys:

• Guild Shop — Located in the Guild Hall
• Quest Rewards — Complete quests for key drops

Important: Guild Shop items rotate frequently. If you see keys in stock, buy them immediately—they might not return for a while.

Hunter Quests: Purple Tier

New purple quests have been added to the game:

• Much higher EXP rewards than other quest types
• Harder to find — They’re rare spawns
• Worth hunting down for the massive experience boost

Rarity System Replaces Ranks

Shadows and items no longer use the old rank system. Everything now uses rarities:

• Clearer progression path
• Easier to understand power tiers
• More intuitive for new players

Equipment Levels

Both equipment and shadows now have levels:

• Adds deeper progression
• Long-term scaling potential
• More investment into your gear pays off
