Elvia Realm Improvements
We've changed the entry method for the Elvia Realm first introduced with the improvements made to the structure of Elvia servers. You can enter the Elvia Realm via the relevant UI from any server you're on instead of having to log in to specific Elvia servers. We hope this will alleviate several issues, including that of overcrowded monster zones in the Elvia Realm since you can now be on almost any server to enter the realm.
You can enter the Elvia Realm from almost any location and not just specific monster zones, including safe zones (towns, etc.), without the screen loading. Also, Adventurers in the Elvia Realm can see, meet, and interact (party, combat, etc.) with one another like in the normal field. We didn't set a cooldown for entering and leaving the realm, but we've added a loading animation that lasts around 10 seconds, due to the possibility of using this improvement to repeatedly enter and leave.

- However, you cannot move to the Elvia Realm if you have trade items in your inventory or mount inventory.

"Today is the day," you may have thought! 'Her heart shall be mine!' And yet, within a minute's span, you end up sighing at Garmoth's untimely demise.

Content restrictions on apprentice guild members were applied to prevent deliberate consumption of guild funds, but there were also aspects that made the gameplay of new adventurers or those who moved guilds extremely frustrating. Adventurers have given us a lot of feedback, and after a careful analysis of your recent play, we have come to a conclusion that it’s fine to improve the terms of the position to some extent. We hope that through this, the beginner guild members can enjoy a more pleasant guild life.

When we first introduced Courser Training, it was actually a difficult ordeal to collect all the necessary materials. The sparkly animations displayed when using each material was originally designed to give off a sense of reward to Adventurers who had spent much time and effort gathering enough materials. Now, it's become a bit easier to collect these materials, and it is true that these animations may come off as a bit lengthy. Thus, we decided to add the Skip Animation function to speed up this process, and also made it available for the Alchemy Stone UI as well. We will continue to look over other UI that are in need of such improvements.
