In our last update to Imperial Delivery, we had added the Heavy Duty Packaging Cord item, which you could use to mass package imperial cooking/alchemy boxes. For this update, we made changes so that you can deliver imperial cooking/alchemy boxes regardless of the limit set for each territory and server. We recognized that the limits set on the number of boxes that you can deliver for each territory and server was unnecessarily tiring for our Adventurers. With this change, you will no longer have to compete with other Adventurers to deliver your beautifully packaged boxes to a nearby Imperial Delivery Manager NPC.

* The aforementioned quests are only available after you have completed the "Old Moon's Resplendent Gear" quests and chose the respective boss gear reward. (Removed)

● Changed the quest name of "[PEN (V) Boss Gear]: The Old Moon Guild's Best Deal" to "[PEN (V) Boss Gear]: The Best Deal."

● Added the Kamasylvia Node Wars.

- Changed Season 5 server to Kamasylvia 1 server.

- You can now engage in Node Wars in Kamasylvia, the land blessed by nature. All new terrains await you and your fellow guild members, who will embark on and battle over vast plains, forests, ancient ruins, and the like.
- Kamasylvia's nodes consists of tiers 2 to 4.

● Added the new outfit "Sun's Resolve," exclusive to guild members who participated in Conquest Wars.

- Sun's Resolve can be purchased once per day and will expire in 6 hr.
- Any guild member can purchase the Sun's Resolve, however, they must meet the following requirements to equip it:

We added a Conquest War exclusive outfit. This outfit with its shiny plate armor and fluttering cape will enhance the feeling of you becoming a part of a group together with your guild members during Conquest War. Additionally, it helps to differentiate your members from other guilds. The color of the cape will be assigned automatically depending on the number of guilds that participate in Conquest War. Now, you will be able to present a more united front with your fellow guild members with this guild outfit.
Additionally, we've added effects that you had with other outfits into the Sun's Resolve to maintain those same buff effects. You will be able to keep the effects: Jump Height +0.5 m, Gear Durability Consumption -10%, and Movement Speed +2 with the new Conquest War exclusive guild outfit.
We will continue to strive hard to form Conquest War into a heated battlefield where you and your fellow guild members can make amazing memories together.

● Optimized the movement of characters during Node/Conquest War.
● Fixed the issue where the Oct 20 (Wed) update to "reduce issues where the incorrect AP/DP Limit would be applied" wasn't being applied to certain territories and areas.

- Tier 1 Easy & Medium Node Wars
- Mediah Conquest Wars
- Valencia Conquest Wars
* All stat limits are based on your character's Total Stats available in the View My Stats window.

We discovered that the Oct 20 (Wed) update to "reduce issues where the incorrect AP/DP Limit would be applied" wasn't being applied to certain territories and areas. Thus we ended up fixing this issue with this patch.
In addition, for the sake of fostering an environment that allows for a greater number of Adventurers to participate, we lowered the AP limits for Tier 1 Easy & Medium Node Wars and Mediah & Valencia Conquest Wars. With this latest update, we hope to provide a more exciting combat experience for all of our Adventurers. We will continue to tweak and make improvements. We'd like to thank all of our Adventurers who took the time to send us such wonderful feedback.
