Combat balance

Monster stat rebalances — 19 monsters

The most dramatic part of the update. World bosses were nerfed by up to ‑87% HP, while several early-zone enemies received eye-watering buffs in the +800% range to give them real combat presence at the new world levels.

World bosses — heavy nerfs

  • Red Demon — HP 757,552 → 95,747 (‑87%). ATK 10,027 → 1,547. DEF 3,270 → 555.

Element coverage

Elemental weakness changes — 16 monsters

Sixteen monsters had their weakness profile reworked. Several lost their weakness entirely (Removed), while others gained or swapped elements. If your team was built around hitting a specific weakness, double-check before re-running content.

Weakness removed entirely

  • 「Corrupted」 Laruka — Thunder → Removed.
  • Draco Shaman — Earth, Holy → Removed.
  • Female Monster of the 「Abyss」 — Holy → Removed.
  • Male Monster of the 「Abyss」 — Holy → Removed.
  • Young Giant Bird — Thunder → Removed.

  • 「Corrupted」 Warden Orgot — Earth, Dark → Earth.
  • Howling Servant of the 「Abyss」 — Holy → Dark, Holy.
  • Walker Chief Waralga — Thunder → Thunder, Earth.
  • Predatory Wild Screamer — Fire, Dark → Wind, Dark.
  • Wild Screamer — Fire, Dark → Wind, Dark.
Gathering

12 animals now drop items

Twelve passive animals that previously had no loot now yield Poultry, Small Meat or Large Meat on kill. Cooking and food-buff farming routes get a real boost.

Poultry sources

  • Seagull / Crow / Pigeon / Chicken — Now drop Poultry — basic ingredient for cooking recipes.

Small Meat sources

  • Chipmunk / Red Fox / Weasel / Desert Fox / Meerkat / Squirrel / Turtle — Now drop Small Meat — primary cooking ingredient and breakthrough material.

Large Meat source

  • Horse — Now drops Large Meat — first farmable overworld source for this material outside of dedicated boss runs.
Loot rework

Drop table overhaul — 95 monsters

95 monsters had their drop tables modified. The majority of changes are removals: most overworld mobs went from 80-row drop tables down to 56 rows, mostly losing the redundant Destruction / Fighting Spirit / Magic Fragment entries that bloated their loot pools.

Pattern — fragment cleanup

  • Most affected — 「Corrupted」 Gorra (Fighter / Overseer / Spotter / Thrower), 「Corrupted」 Walker (Shaman / Warrior), Worker Spiders (Agile / Brown / Colorful), Liones Soldiers, Boom Flower, Brave Pirate, Big-horn Bat, Cursed Fairy, Dark Bat, Dawnfall Bison, Dead Forest Golem, etc.
  • Typical change — Drop count 80 → 56. Removed: Destruction Fragment, Fighting Spirit Fragment, Magic Fragment + 5 more redundant fragment entries per monster.
  • Larger pools — Brown Worker Spider 320 → 224, Ailing Fairy 124 → 100, Corrupted Forest Guardian 124 → 100, Dawnfall Bison 103 → 79.
Loot economy

Gear & weapon drop rate changes

The patch made surgical drop-rate edits across 95 gear pieces and 120 weapons sourced from overworld monsters.

  • Gear (95 items) — 664 sources buffed, only 49 nerfed. Most common gear drops increased by ~19% (e.g. 8.1% → 9.7%, 30.4% → 36.2%).
  • Weapons (120 items) — 444 sources buffed and 444 nerfed — a major redistribution. Some sub-drops jumped from 1.6% to 58%, others fell from 6.1% to 2.2%. Net result: weapon farming routes need to be re-evaluated, especially if you targeted a specific drop.
Mastery economy

Boss & dungeon Mastery EXP nerfs

Mastery EXP rewards from world bosses and most dungeons were cut to 60–75% of their previous value. The change pushes Mastery progression away from the easiest content and aligns it with the new Abyss difficulty's reward floor.

World bosses

  • WL 1–3 (Premium Mastery EXP) — 100% → 60%.
  • WL 4 (Supreme Mastery EXP) — 100% → 75%.

Dungeons (Premium / Supreme / Special EXP)

  • Corrupted Guardian Golem (Easy / Normal–Hard) — 100% → 60%.
  • Albion Mutant (Easy / Normal–Hard) — 100% → 60%.
  • Draco King Drake (Normal–Hard) — 100% → 60%.
  • Corrupted Warden Orgot (Hard / Nightmare–Hell) — 100% → 60% (Hard) and 60–75% (Nightmare–Hell).
  • The Capital of the Dead (Hard / Nightmare–Hell) — 100% → 60% (Hard) and 60–75% (Nightmare–Hell).
  • Deep Spider Nest (Hard–Hell) — 100% → 60–75%.
  • Corrupted Ancient Dragon (Hard–Hell) — 100% → 60–75%.
  • Ferzen Mines (Normal–Hard) — 100% → 60%.
Endgame

Dungeon changes — Abyss tier + reward bumps

Two dungeons received the brand-new Abyss difficulty, and most existing dungeons got a small bump in their reward drop count to compensate for the Mastery EXP nerf.

New Abyss difficulty (BP 61,652, 1–5 players)

  • Corrupted Warden Orgot — New Abyss tier.
  • The Capital of the Dead — New Abyss tier.

Reward drop bumps

  • Corrupted Guardian Golem — 54 → 60 (+6).
  • Albion Mutant — 54 → 60 (+6).
  • Corrupted Ancient Dragon — 81 → 87 (+6).
  • Deep Spider Nest — 81 → 87 (+6).
  • Ferzen Mines — 45 → 49 (+4).
