Three New Tiers of Blessing Slab Added

It has been about five months since the last update in May, and we finally have new slabs. The additions include Stage I – Tree of Life, Stage II – Soul Keeper, and Stage III – Firm Will. By lighting these up and connecting your path, you can significantly increase your Combat Power. Many players who have been hoarding materials are already reaping the rewards. If you haven't finished yours yet, get to it.

Check the event page, cast your vote for the gourd you think will be smashed, and the one with the most votes wins. Everyone who participates gets a reward, so don't miss out on grabbing those growth materials by visiting this link and casting your vote.

Q&A: Addressing Your Issues

Q. I got a new weapon appearance, but my collection stats didn't budge.
A. The Heroic weapon appearance collection only applies up to 20 items.

Collecting new spirits, mounts, and weapon appearances typically boosts your collection stats. However, for Heroic weapon appearances, even though there are 80 in total, the bonus is capped at 20. Once you hit 21, your stats stay exactly the same. It is smarter to focus on collecting 20 unique ones and then use duplicates for Legendary synthesis attempts. Keep in mind that this cap also applies to Common (36), Rare (32), Legendary (16), and Mythic (2) tiers as well.

Q. My auto-combat keeps turning off.
A. Check your [Settings] - [Combat] - [End Auto-Combat on Movement Input] option.

Auto-combat is supposed to keep you fighting monsters and players continuously. If it keeps cancelling whenever you make a manual move, it is likely because the [End Auto-Combat on Movement Input] setting is enabled. This feature is designed to stop auto-combat after a set time if you intervene manually. If you don't want that, just toggle it to 'Off'.

Denser Monster Spawns in Black Night Archipelago

Remember how the monster density in Stone Wall Fire was improved recently? The community was quite happy with how clustered the mobs were, making for much more efficient grinding. This design philosophy has now been applied to the integrated field of Black Night Archipelago, giving your hunting efficiency a real boost. Just note that this change only applies to the 3rd and 4th Archipelagos, while the 1st and 2nd remain unchanged.
