Since the last update, many adventurers with higher stats have been visiting the Darkseekers' Retreat. Today's update brings additional improvements to make your subjugation experience even more enjoyable. Firstly, the weight of the Decayed Cloth junk loot has been decreased. This is intended to reduce the burden of weight, especially since the Darkseekers' Retreat often involves acquiring a large amount of junk loot in a short time due to the zone's mechanics. Additionally, there was some variation in loot acquisition depending on the occurrence of these mechanics. The amount of loot has been increased in typical situations where no mechanic occurs, while loot during mechanic occurrences has been adjusted to reduce variance. Lastly, some monsters have been repositioned to ensure you can acquire similar loot regardless of where you are in the various locations of Darkseekers' Retreat.

• Adjusted the weight of the Decayed Cloth junk item in the Darkseekers' Retreat.

Decayed Cloth

0.4LT → 0.3LT (Decayed Cloth x5,800 equal 1,740 LT)

  • Accordingly, the Agris Fever used when slaying monsters has been adjusted too.
