Advice of Valks (+100)

- Fixed the issue where the Absolute version of the skill didn't activate on skill hits.
- Fixed the issue where the skill was applying debuffs in PvP as well.
- Improved the skill to combo more smoothly into other skills on hits during cooldown.
- Fixed the issue where rapidly pressing the S key in Awakening combat stance would cause your character to stand still.
- Fixed the issue where Accuracy was abnormally low for Dosa at level 60.
- Improved auto-navigation to stop close enough to an NPC to interact with them if the destination is the NPC.
- Changed the cooldown: 8/8/7 sec → 7/7/5 sec
-
- Changed the Skill Add-on from tier 2 to tier 1.
- Changed so you can now perform the skill during cooldown.
-
- Invincibility while moving, Knockback on hits, and the Critical Hit Rate Increase effects are nullified during cooldown.
- Improved to combo more smoothly into other skills
- Changed to activate Cloudveil from attack 2 when comboed from the skill forwards or backwards.
- Fixed the issue where the last movement did could not combo into Flow: Virga Shaft.
-
- Added to the description of Flow: Virga Shaft to indicate it can be comboed by using RMB during Cloud Step.

Spirit's Altar
While targeting the Commander during the War of the Roses is a given, you can obtain Advantageous buffs during overall combat at the Spirit's Altar. During the Pre-Season, depending on the region, there were situations where the Spirit's Altar was occupied from the beginning, leading to an early advantage.In the regular season, the Spirit's Altar has been changed to activate after a certain period, allowing for a more natural progression of combat from occupying each Sanctum in the early stages to fighting for the Spirit's Altar once the frontlines are established.
- Changed the activation time of the Spirit's Altar at the start of the War of the Roses as follows.
Before | After | ||
Spirit's Altar activates at the start of the War of the Roses | Spirit's Altar activates 10 minutes after the War of the Roses starts |
Resurrection Method Change
Before, when dying during the War of the Roses, you were able to resurrect at the frontlines of the opponent's territory, often leading to continued attacks before a counter-strategy could be prepared. Now, you cannot resurrect at the frontlines of the occupied Sanctum, allowing for more strategic responses to threats against allied Sanctums.
- Changed the resurrection method during the War of the Roses as follows.
Before | After | ||
Resurrect at a chosen occupied Sanctum | Cannot resurrect at occupied Sanctums on the frontlines (Can resurrect at the previous stage Sanctum) |
Sanctum Guardian
After a succeeding with a comeback strategy, Sanctum Guardian will receive an invincibility buff for a certain period to maximize the effect of the comeback to the frontlines.
- Changed the Sanctum Guardians to receive a 3 min invincibility buff when successfully occupying an enemy-held Sanctum during the War of the Roses.
Captain Skills
A New Captain skill Strategic Revival has been be added. With this skill, you can choose to resurrect at a designated Sanctum regardless of its occupation status (even if it is the opponent's Sanctum). This allows for different strategies, such as cutting off the opponent's connected Sanctums. It can be used after Rally Forces to continue an attack, or in conjunction with Obscure Vision to create chaos on the battlefield.
- Added 1 new skill to the 6 exclusive Captain skills in the War of the Roses.
Skill | Description | ||
[NEW] Strategic Revival |
Select one sanctum to use Strategic Revival on. When an ally (including leading guilds and the third legion) resurrects, they can choose the selected sanctum to revive at for 5 min, regardless of its occupation status. Cooldown: 20 min |
||
Enhance Vision |
Reveals an obscured field of vision for 10 sec. Cooldown: 5 min |
||
Rally Forces |

||
Immobilize Guardians |
Freezes the sanctum's guardians and restores 20% of their HP, making them impossible to target for approximately 30 sec. Cooldown: 10 min |
War of the Roses Rewards
Appropriate loot will be rewarded for the regular season of the War of the Roses. The Leading Guild, which takes the lead in the War of the Roses and drives it to victory, will obtain more rewards than the Third Legion. Of course, as the Third Legion also participates in the War of the Roses with the same objectives, they will receive rewards as well. The more missions assigned by the Leading Guild that the Third Legion successfully completes, the more personal rewards they will obtain. The Third Legion must diligently carry out the missions from the Leading Guild to seize both victory and loot.
