Duration: 6:30 AM ~ 11:00 AM KST (4h30)
Developer Notes
Atma'Ram is releasing in this update. Here is a brief introduction to familiarize yourself with the new region.
It is a volcanic island ruled by the Spirit King, located in Red Demon Spirit Sea. It is also known as Spirit Haven.
The story unfolds when the El Search Party, exhausted from their adventures, visits the Hot Springs to relax.
Atma'Ram consists of three dungeons, with two releasing in this patch. The third dungeon will be added on August 14th.
The first dungeon is intended for EXP farming, and has a higher difficulty than Plegas's Portrait, which is currently used for this purpose.
As for the second dungeon, it is designed with new Magic Stone farming in mind. Entry is limited to once per character daily.
New Magic Stones are divided into Common/Rare/Elite/Unique, and their rarity can be increased through the newly added Synthesis system.
Finally, the third dungeon is a Giant Boss that brings several new accessories for the following slots: Top Piece, Face (Middle), Face (Bottom), Arm and Necklace.
In the case of the Top Piece accessory, it gives +10% Damage when attacking an enemy with 100% HP or less, and can be crafted with the existing accessories - Code of Honor and Engine Cooling System. Also, these accessories' drop rate will increase in this patch to help adventurers gather them.
We hope you look forward to the new Artma'Ram region and dungeon update.

It seems that the stat change of 'Madame Corae's Garden' has not been applied to the site.
Apparently, it was unintentionally omitted. We will update it when Atma'Ram Giant Boss hits NA.
I haven't been thinking about this for a while, but I just looked up the Undead Dragon's Will weapon, and the Stat Change thing is still confusing me a bit. Specifically, I don't know what "The same type of stat option will only appear once per line" means exactly. Does it mean that I can only get one "Critical Damage" effect on the weapon's Stat Change overall, or does it mean something else?
It means that every stat can only appear once on the list. However, enhancement-based and fixed value options are considered to be different.
So I can have any combination of "Phys/Mag Atk x Weap Level", "Phys/Mag Atk Level x Weap Level" and "Phys/Mag Atk %", but I can't have two Crit Damages?
Also, I didn't notice this before, but it doesn't state how many effects we can have overall.
There are 4 slots. As for how it works, here's something I've stumbled across: https://ster17.github.io/Mortal-Weapon-Identify/
According to this tool, one can roll something like this:
The tool isn't that helpful since you can't actually choose the individual options, but I got my questions answered, so thanks. Kinda wish the actual wiki page for the weapon made that clear, though.
They could have made Synthesis just consume materials to upgrade but no, ofc we need a new RNG system. Mark my words: Soon they'll release an item mall only that increases the success rate.
craftable accessory using previous regions' accessories
cp gate that doesn't continue from the last raid
2 steps forward
no magic stones with baseline atk power increases
drop rate bonuses being disregarded
garbage socket tiers
any crafting success %s below 50
2 steps back and 2 unlearned lessons. fr devs?!
summer sets color coded to the character with unique hairstyles
YYee__e___eEEeE___E__Ee__ES___sSSsss_____s finally
faihu art
oh they're dudes
.... is this a thing with every major water boy
KoG really dangling 'We have Code of Cooling Knowledge at home" in their patch notes?
Biggest L I saw , kog literally just copied 1:1 how CoCk is crafted and made it with a 0.1% superior effect (cuz of how kog programming works, 100%< is better than 50% less or more) lmao, ppl need to understand how much they're grateful for rift existence, if there was no rift during these 2.5 years Elsword would never get such QoL in such due time
Will the changes in the raid be reflected soon?
Monster stats might take a little bit more to update, but don't worry, we already have the new damage reduction values. They will be updated later along with HP, but here you go:
[Cornerstone of Prophecy]
Type-E Echidna: 60 > 50
Barkat: 80 > 70
[Nightmare: Reset Room]
Bifron: 50 > 40
Scepter Swarm: 80 > 70
[Queen’s Throne Hall]
Taris (Phase 1): 60 > 50
Taris (Phase 2): 80 > 70
[Wilting Tower: Flight]
Undead Dragon Jabberwock: 50 > 40
Opinionated Barkat: 70 > 60
[Wilting Spire: Fall]
- Echoes of Doom: 99 > 89
[Serpentium Tower]
Security System Core: 60 > 50
Defense System: 99 - 3 (D1~3) / 2.5 (D4) per cube > 99 - 4 (D1,2) / 3.5 (D3) per cube
[Orchestra Hall]
Conductor: 80 (D4) / 70 (D1~3) > 70 (D3) / 60 (D1,2)
Maestro: 80 (D4) / 70 (D1~3) > 70 (D3) / 60 (D1,2)
Missed this: [Serpentium Tower] – Security System Core: 70 (D4) > 60 (D3)
99% DR????? no wonder that fight takes like 30+ minutes even for the highest power omegawhales on KR
It can be reduced up to 80% (70% after patch) with boss mechanics.
Monster stats have been updated.
thx!!!
Full damage to boss is still the best option in case everyone is wondering
Not true, though the difference is underwhelming and only beats Boss Damage if your other skill tier isn't used for damage. (eg. If all your DPS skills are Bravery, changing existing Boss Damage stones to the new Bravery stones of max value is net gain of less than 1%, and other options are just worse unless we consider that they help with damage on normal enemies)
Active, Tenacity, Strength, Bravery Skill Damage Increase
Is this all four stats at once? If so, I'd probably go for that instead of the "strength or bravery +5%" despite the latter being 1% higher.
Yes, all four at once, while the options with "or" are separated.
Back to see the incoming updates of new region. Somehow it was nothing new to expect another "tier" luck system, like if the difficulty and resource consumption wasnt enough. Now its RNG in effect %, RNG in tier droping (and hopefully there is a guaranted drop), and RNG in Synthesis system. Honestly the effects of the stones are really cool, but considering the actual gameplay everyone might focus only in the [strength/bravery +4% damage] and probably the exp thing, the other effects are just to make fun of you because the existing heroic stones give better percentages and even with extra stat.
RIP everybody that was using spirit challenger
why that?
