'Arthdal Chronicles: Three Factions' has finally bridged the gap, merging the previously fragmented global servers into a unified content matching pool alongside Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau regions. With mysterious event field bosses now haunting the Aram Forest and the western Great Black Wall, let's dive into what's been shaking up the official community this past week. We'll cover it all in this week's Forum Highlight.

Event field bosses are on the prowl

Field bosses Botrav and Nahak have begun roaming the Aram Forest and the western Great Black Wall. They appear at random locations within these zones for a fleeting two-minute window daily at 12:30 and 20:30. These event field bosses are purely for participation, rewarding everyone present with one Shining Event Boss Chest. Do keep in mind, though: if you don't manage to slay the boss before it vanishes after three hours, you won't be able to receive the participation reward.

Experience boosts for the global region

To smooth out the power disparity, the Tagon, Saya, and Tanya servers are receiving an EXP boost. The event runs from the 4th to the 8th, and players will receive 10 Growth Charms of Leap as a daily login bonus. Popping one of these charms grants a 500% EXP increase for 30 minutes—a perfect shortcut for those looking to level up in a hurry.

Got questions? Q&A Special

Q. What should I do with my leftover Black Coins?
A. Craft them into Summon Selection Chests.

Purchasing items from the Black Friday promotion back on November 19th netted players Black Coins, which could be used to forge Legendary Summon Selection Chests or Radiant Skill Growth Chests. Many players found themselves with loose change, so the update on the 3rd added a 'Shining 11-Summon Selection Chest I' to the crafting menu to tidy up those leftovers. If you have coins to spare, this is the item to craft.

Q. What are these 'Hot Deal' items?
A. These are limited-time offers that trigger only when specific conditions are met.

The update on the 3rd introduced a wave of Hot Deals. These pop up for a limited time based on your gameplay: clearing party dungeons, completing the Dream Garden party dungeon, spending time in time-dungeons, performing alchemy, or completing faction missions. Once the offer's window closes, you won't see it again, even if you meet the trigger conditions later, so keep a sharp eye out.

A snapshot of the Arthdal scene

Global servers join the unified fray

After being sidelined due to growth disparities, the global servers—Tagon, Saya, and Tanya—are finally integrated into the unified matching system as of the 3rd. It's a breath of fresh air for the content, bringing new faces, fresh rivalries, and some truly spicy combat to the table.

Interestingly, recent server transfers have seen a migration of top-tier players to the Ha-je-san server (Taiwan/Hong Kong/Macau) and the Tagon server (Global). It seems they are consolidating their strength to challenge the Korean servers, which have been dominating the rankings and rewards. It’ll be fascinating to see how the meta shifts in the coming matches.
