Maintenance
Date: May 25, 2023 (Thu)
Duration: 8:00 AM ~ 12:00 AM (4 hours)
Target: All Servers
We are preparing to announce the contents of the offline interview that was held on 5/23 as a notice. We are trying to organize it well, so it's taking longer than expected. Sorry for not publishing it sooner. We will keep you updated.
Hello, this is Lee Dong-Shin, the director of Elsword.
Regarding the matters that need to be additionally explained, we would like to introduce the [Developer Notice] section to our adventurers.
If some of the changes are still unclear, you are welcome to file us a ticket through the Customer Service. We will quickly review it and respond, providing additional information if necessary.
We will do our best to keep adventurers updated and improve the areas where communication is lacking.
Developer Notice
First of all, through this maintenance, the 4th path [Mod] skills have been updated. Thank you for the wait.
As promised, since the 4th path updates have been completed, we will proceed with a PvP-oriented balance patch that will be the next one.
You can share your possible ideas for it on the Balance Forum in the Community tab. We will use it as a reference when making changes.
We, as a team, will try to listen to adventurers more when it comes to balance.
Due to the server merge and friend list UI improvement, the function will temporarily be not available.
Last time, to alleviate the bug fix of Continuous Damage option, we decreased endgame Raid HP by 30%. Similarly, we decided to apply this to the Raid Challenge Mode. Please refer to the Fixes/Improvements section.
In addition, the Challenge Mode issues will be fixed. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by bugs. If the reproduction method is known, we will do our best to solve them.
