They have also introduced new 'Invasion' content and a constellation growth system that has caught quite a few eyes. Curious about the buzz in the official community this past week?

New Field PvE Content: Invasion Added

Monsters are swarming into Arthdal Chronicles in the new 'Invasion' event. This is a fresh field activity where you slay waves of mobs to farm growth materials. It triggers every Monday through Saturday at 12:30 PM and 8:30 PM in one of five designated regions. Once it kicks off, you get a 5-minute prep period followed by 10 minutes of combat. There are five stages to clear, and your rewards—'Starlight Fragments' used to observe constellations—depend on the highest stage you conquer within the time limit.

New Growth System: Constellations Added

The new constellation progression system is now live. You can find it under [Menu]-[Constellation] once your character hits level 20. It’s split into three nebulae—Red, Blue, and Yellow—each housing five constellations. You’ll need those Starlight Fragments from the Invasions to perform observations. Each attempt grants 1-3 points based on RNG, and stacking these points unlocks bonus stats. Keep in mind, there’s a weekly cap of 4,000 fragments per color.

Got Questions? Issues & Answers

Q. Where can I get Growth Summon Tickets?
A. You can nab them by hunting or taking down World Bosses.

The new Growth Summon Tickets are here for your Spirit and Mount needs. You can farm these in the general field, the Black Night Archipelago, or Time Dungeons. You might even pull a tradable version if the RNG gods are smiling. Just be aware that there’s a daily limit on how many you can farm from standard hunting, and the counter resets every day at 6:00 AM. Check your progress in the item acquisition menu.

Q. Where did the Forgotten Altar hunting ground go?
A. Other hunting grounds outside the general fields have been removed.

Arthdal Chronicles used to have a variety of special spots, like the Forgotten Altar, Altar of Memories, and hidden hunting grounds. Many players frequented the Screaming Desert for Blessings or the Forgotten Elemental Altar for essences. However, with the latest rebalancing of Time Dungeons and party dungeons, these areas have been removed. Now, you’ll have to head to the Serpent Scale Canyon Time Dungeon for Blessings and tackle party dungeons for your elemental essences.
