Look, let's be honest—Vampir has just dropped five class-agnostic 'common shapes' alongside a server shuffling protocol, just in case you thought the meta was settling down. Alongside this comes a generous helping of events, including the growth-boosting 'Golden Thief' and daily check-in bonuses.

Let's dive right into these new common shapes. They can be equipped freely by any class without restrictions, granting a dedicated skill usable across the board. The update introduces a total of five new additions: one myth-grade 'Astel's Despair', two legendary-grade options ('Cruel Horror Executioner' and 'Endless Predator Finisher'), and two heroic-grade choices ('Stigmatized Pursuer' and 'Gluttonous Executioner'). Meanwhile, the archive heroic battle achievement 'Blood Shape' is now live; acquire seven myth-grade completion effects to net ten 'Pure Bloodstone Bundle Boxes'.

Server shuffling has also arrived to reorganise the matchmaking landscape. Depending on the matched server group, Gehenna and conquest battles are linked into the same group, while elite dungeons lump six servers together (five for the global 2 region) into a single matchmaking pool, regardless of server groups.

Furthermore, in South Korea and the global 2 region until 7:00 on November 4, players can grab the event skill 'Special Skill: Blood Stigma' from the shop's special tab using gold for PvP skirmishes. This cheeky skill deals 200% damage to players and applies a mark stacking up to five times, reducing the target's PvP damage resistance, PvP evasion, and incoming healing.

You'll also want to keep an eye on the rewarding 'Golden Thief Appears!' event. Until 4:59 on October 21, hunting down the golden thieves spawning across major fields and Gehenna yields 'Special Golden Coins' and 'Special Golden Boxes' based on drop rates. The special golden coins can be consumed directly for a 10-minute buff boosting accuracy, attack power, and defense against ordinary monsters, or registered in the event collection for extra stat boosts. The accompanying special golden boxes offer a chance to bag up to 1,000 gold ingots, alongside shape, mount, or sephira 11-draw summon vouchers IV, ancient evolution stones, and trinity items.

In addition, the 'Golden Thief Subjugation Mission' running until 4:59 on October 28 doles out 'Familiar 11-draw summon vouchers III' and 'Sephira 11-draw summon selection boxes III' in stages based on your accumulated special golden coins, with a bonus 'Rare to Heroic Familiar Summon Voucher' for completing the lot.

Checking in daily brings its own spoils. The 'Growth Support 7-Day Attendance Book', active until 4:59 on October 28, hands out magical research catalysts, bloodline evolution reset tickets, and shape 11-draw summon vouchers III depending on the day, culminating in two 'Shape 11-draw summon vouchers IV' usable at level 55 or above on day seven. Plus, the 'Daily Connection Reward Event' running until midnight on October 21 delivers twenty 'Experience Recovery Tickets' straight to your mailbox across five days.

Meanwhile, the global 2 region welcomes a fresh area, 'Vezdan Region 2: Land of the Holy Spirit', featuring monsters up to level 130. To match, the developers have introduced the epic dungeon 'Monastery of Silence', a new world boss named 'Infernus', and the 10th bloodline 'Memories of the Land of the Holy Spirit', plus a class change event for characters level 60 and above running until 4:59 on October 21.
