Raven 2 has hit a major turning point. The Battle World has drawn to a close, and the server transfer period is officially underway. It is a time of transition for both the server infrastructure and content availability. To mark the occasion, a grand festival event has kicked off, accompanied by a slew of new activities. The in-game shop has also been refreshed with new booths and items. With eyes firmly set on the May 27th update, let’s take a look at the details before we head to the starting line.

Battle World Concluded, Time to Return to Regular Servers

Following the May 6th update, the Raven 2 Battle World has officially ended. It is now time for the guilds that gathered in the event world to return to their home servers. The first wave of 'homecoming buses' has moved players to specific servers within each region. For the Korean region, Lux and Fides have been designated as the transit hubs. From there, you must use the server transfer feature to move to your desired destination. The transfer window remains open until May 12th, and please note that you get two free transfers for both your account and guild.

Item Collection Updates and Improvements: Check Out the New Entries

This week's Raven 2 update places a heavy focus on the item collection. We are looking at a patch that covers the renewal of timed collections, improvements to collection stats, and the addition of Rare Heavystone collections. First, the timed collection section has refreshed the 'Ash Guardian Stone Fragment' entries. These timed collections will be active until 4:59 AM on August 12th, and there are a total of six items to track down.

The improved collection is the 'Moment of Death' entry, which saw its Max HP bonus buffed from 10 to 50. Additionally, seven new Rare Heavystone collections have been added, providing bonuses to 'Melee/Ranged/Critical Resistance, PVP Attack Offset, Critical Damage Resistance, and Defense' upon completion.

Questions & Tips: Let's Share

Q. Where is the fastest place to level up from 59 to 60?
A. Three distinct answers have emerged.

A question regarding character progression popped up on the Raven 2 user board. The poster, who appears to be under level 60, asked, 'Where is the fastest place to grind from 59 to 60?' In response, three pieces of advice were shared. Two users offered similar insights: reach level 57 through main and sub-quests, then grind daily Special Task Force missions until level 59. It is crucial to find a hunting ground that matches your 'Big 3' combat power stats. Use the hunting log feature to measure efficiency, which generally follows the order of 'Abyss > Dungeon > Field'.

Another user suggested looking into Akehon Hollow if your gear is just average for your level. They also recommended joining an active guild to ask for help directly. This user also echoed the sentiment that the best way to bypass the grind is through diligent completion of Special Task Force missions.

Spotlight: Trending Events

Let's wait for the upcoming grand festival with these events

Raven 2 has signaled the start of its grand festival eve. According to the official announcement, the 'Grand Festival of Victory' that will light up the darkness is coming soon. This is likely a reference to the 2nd-anniversary event, given that the event period runs until the morning of May 27th, the date highlighted on the official community page.

The pre-festival events consist of three parts. Let’s break them down. First, the '14-Day Blessing Attendance' rewards players over two weeks with items like the Grand Festival Invitation, 11-draw Superior Costume/Familiars, and Faded Pouches. The invitation is a currency used in the pre-festival shop, while the Faded Pouch is a crafting material. By May 27th at 4:59 AM, at least 200 invitations and 125 pouches will be distributed through these events.

The standout item is the 7th-day reward, the 'Raven 2 Special Coupon: Equipment Exchange Ticket', which currently cannot be used. The developers promise to reveal the crafting recipes and specific details after the May 27th maintenance, noting that it will likely allow for the restoration of existing equipment.

The other two events are mission-based, differing only in their 'all-clear' rewards. The 'Blessing of Subjugation' requires completing 8 missions to earn Grand Festival Invitations and Faded Pouches. The tasks involve killing 10,000 monsters in the Abyss and completing 50 Special Task Force missions. The all-clear reward is 5 Abyss Time Charge Stones.The 'Blessing After the Decisive Battle' is quite similar, though it lacks a final all-clear reward. You simply need to kill 50,000 monsters and complete 50 Special Task Force missions to earn more Faded Pouches and Grand Festival Invitations.

Additionally, until the maintenance on May 13th, a 2x reward event for field boss contributions is running. During this time, you will receive 2 boss subjugation chests for participating in field boss kills. Since these are based on contribution, you can join in without any pressure. Be sure to check the new tab in the Raven 2 in-game shop, as new items have been stocked.
