■ Labyrinth

The drop method for Ancient Coins in the Labyrinth has changed.

– Before: In battle and in treasure chests, piles of Ancient Coins would appear according to a certain schedule.

There was a chance that ancient coins could be obtained by battle in addition to finding them in treasure chests and piles of stones.

– After: Now you can obtain ancient coins regardless of probability from battle, and the chances of getting normal equipment and Labyrinth equipment have increased dramatically (the increased rate is proportional to the previous drop rate of Ancient Coins).

The number of Ancient Coins dropped from treasure chests and piles of stones has been changed from 25 to 20.

With these changes players will get more consistent amounts of rewards and will receive more Labyrinth equipment and Ancient Coins by exploring the Labyrinth.

Players expressed frequent dissatisfaction regarding inconsistent amounts of rewards, especially Ancient Coins, thus we are making changes, as listed below.

Labyrinth Zone Amount of Ancient Coins per Zone
Tirel Castle in Chaos Zone 1 5
Zone 2 6
Zone 3 7
Zone 4 8
Zone 5 9
Great Farche Labyrinth Zone 1 9
Zone 2 10
Zone 3 11
Zone 4 12
Zone 5 13
Nixied’s Sanctum Zone 1 13
Zone 2 14
Zone 3 15

The amount of Ancient Coins that can be acquired has changed from 25 to 20. However, since players are guaranteed at least 5 rewards, the total amount received is greater.
