Raven 2 has stepped into a fresh new environment. Server merges have landed across both the Korean and global regions, with South Korea's Kerum and the global Eden linking up with other worlds. Naturally, this trimmed down the pool of tracked data, sending ripples through job shares and class distributions. On top of that, server transfer tickets are up for grabs from October 15 to 20, making this prime season for rankers to pack up or for guilds and alliances to reshuffle. Expect things to take a moment to settle down.

Shall we take a look at the top three jobs per server first? The biggest shake-up naturally hit Vita, the very world caught in this merger madness, leaving things somewhat chaotic. Every server except Dolor saw its popular job rankings shift. Broadly speaking, it is a fierce tug-of-war between Night Rangers and Divine Casters, with Divine Casters claiming the top spot in Fides and Mors, while Night Rangers rule the roost in Salus and Honor.

As for the rest, Berserkers, Deathbringers, and Elementalists are riding the wave of change to climb higher. Berserkers secured the third spot in Mors and Honor, while Deathbringers edged out Berserkers to take third in Fides. Over in Metus, the former third-place Elementalist clawed back four percentage points to leap two spots, tying with Divine Casters for first place. Meanwhile, Dolor remained stubbornly static in its rankings, though shares fluctuated wildly: the top-ranked Divine Caster shed four percentage points and the Night Ranger dropped two, while the third-place Berserker gained four. Still, with the gap between the top two classes being so massive, a ranking climb looks like a bit of a steep hill to conquer.

In worlds outside of Vita, the magic users are really flexing their presence. Across five servers in the Lux, Nox, and Solar worlds, the arcane trifecta of Divine Caster, Elementalist, and Deathbringer has locked down the top three spots. Elsewhere, Berserkers grabbed third in Lux and Metus, while Destroyers claimed the bronze in Mare and Mors.

Overall Job Share

Could this be the fallout from server merges and transfers? Raven 2 Meca Ranking has cooked up a rather rare sight. Divine Casters took a heavy hit to their share, allowing Night Rangers to surge past and share the crown in a joint first place. One has to wonder if Divine Casters can hold the throne, or if Night Rangers will reclaim the crown they lost. It has been a while since we last saw a proper throne-swapping opportunity.

In the mid-tier, Elementalists and Deathbringers flipped places. Elementalists crept up by 0.3 percentage points, whereas Deathbringers slipped by 0.6. The dip among Deathbringer rankers carries more weight here. With the gap between the two sitting at a razor-thin 0.3 percentage points, there is plenty of room for another upset. Next week's Meca Ranking tally cannot come soon enough.

Global Job Share

Unlike the Korean region, the global side of Raven 2 refuses to show any dramatic pulses post-merger. Assassins merely bled enough share to hand the seventh spot over to Destroyers. As for a royal shuffle between Divine Casters and Night Rangers? Good luck with that. The gap between those two in the global region is an absolute chasm. In fact, after Night Rangers took a 0.6 percentage point loss this time around, the deficit stretched out to a staggering 20.3 percentage points. Your real drama here is watching the 5th to 8th-place scramble.

Specialized World Job Share

Starting this week, the Raven 2 specialized world ranker job share chart joins the fray. We are breaking down the job distribution for the top 50 rankers across each server in the ZERO and ZERO2 worlds. Let's see how the numbers panned out, shall we? The biggest departure from the traditional Korean and global regions is the upper-tier hierarchy. While Divine Casters still sit comfortably at number one, Elementalists are proving more popular than Night Rangers. Seeing as Night Rangers have never dropped below second place in the Korean and global charts, this comes as quite the shock.

With Divine Casters, Elementalists, and Night Rangers locking down the top three, Berserkers claimed fourth, Gunslingers took fifth, and Deathbringers settled for sixth. Gunslingers edging out Deathbringers in popularity is another fascinating little quirk. With a mere one percentage point separating them, expect a bloody battle for supremacy between the two soon.

Guild Dungeon Rankings

The Raven 2 guild dungeon rankings saw the eligible guild count swell from 163 to 334. As the new season matures, more guilds are diving into the content. Particular standouts include RoyalDanTheGeol at first and Valentine at third. RoyalDanTheGeol clinched the top spot last week on stage five with a time of 5 minutes and 6 seconds, beating out second-place Rangmanv by an 18-second margin. In just one week, they shaved their time down to 4 minutes and 48 seconds, widening the gap even further. At present, they stand alone as the only guild to smash through the five-minute wall.

Valentine seemingly materialized out of nowhere from outside the top 20 to land in third place. Their stage five clear time of 6 minutes and 7 seconds nudged past last week's joint third-place holders, Veteran707 and RaonA, by a single second. While this shuffle pushed several guilds down the ladder, the former seventh-place Musin managed to hold their ground. Unlike other guilds stagnant in their times, Musin actually beat their previous personal best, slashing their clear time from 9 minutes and 13 seconds down to 8 minutes and 35 seconds on stage five.

Raven 2 Meca Ranking User Poll

It is time for the Raven 2 Meca Ranking user poll corner. Last week hosted an event centered around holy relics, prompting us to ask about your current relic management status. Interestingly enough, all three choices split the vote fairly evenly. "Still grinding for that noble holy relic" took first, followed by "Using relics, but not entirely satisfied yet" in second place, showing that plenty of players are still pouring resources in. Snagging enough votes for third was the sentiment that everyone had already hit a satisfying peak.

This week's poll shifts gears to server transfers. Raven 2 is running server transfers from October 15 until 23:59 on October 20. Are you planning to pack your bags and move servers? If so, which world are you eyeing? Let your voices be heard through the poll, and we will catch you with the results next time.
