Major Updates
- The Crown of Ashes season will officially launch after the update for servers that have been active for at least 21 days. To unlock the season, you must reach Level 240 with your Hands of Resonance and complete New Journey. Once these conditions are met, simply complete the tutorial quests to begin the new season's storyline: King's Sword.
- Adding a new Peaks of Time chapter, Tower of Memory, which will be available on June 5 at 00:00 UTC. If you missed the Tower of Memory season, you'll be able to access it in this mode after completing The Last Leg quest, allowing you to collect plenty of map resources as you play through the season storyline. If you have participated in Tower of Memory, your progress will carry over to Peaks of Time, so you can pick up right where you left off.
- Heroes' Exclusive Equipment can now be refined using the new item, Slumber Essence. Details are as follows:
- The refinement feature unlocks when a hero reaches Paragon 1 and their Exclusive Equipment reaches +25. The maximum number of refinements increases with the hero's Paragon tier, up to a maximum of Refine 4.
- Each refinement slightly increases the hero's stats. Reaching Refine 2 and Refine 4 unlocks special effects for Rivalry Mode. These effects are based on the hero's class, meaning all heroes of the same class will share the same effects.
- Slumber Essence can be obtained for free through regular gameplay. It can be redeemed via Arena Store, Dream Store, Spirit Store, and Recruitment Store, or earned by participating in Growth Trials, Supreme League, Titan Reaver, Ravaged Realm, and other seasonal events.
- After the new season begins, all players will receive the following items via in-game mail: Tidal Essence|x=120, Temporal Essence|x=120, Twilight Essence|x=120, Slumber Essence|x=120, and EX Equipment Reset (+15)|x=3.
- Version 1.7.1 introduces major updates to Ally Servers and the Guild system. Details are as follows:

Hotfix Notes
Jun 2nd - Guild Chest Compensation
After the Guild Merge feature went live on May 29, some players who participated in merge received fewer Guild Chest rewards than they normally would had. A compensation was sent for the inconvenience this has caused.
To help everyone better understand what happened, here's some additional clarity:
- Q1: Why was the number of Guild Chests limited to 50 for invited members the week after a merge? This was an initial limit put in place for merges. However, to improve the Guild Merge experience, this limit has now been removed.
- Q2: Why ar only the hot Guild's weekly chest rewards retained after a merge? This rule was designed to keep rewards fair for all Guilds. If both Guilds' chest rewards carried over, the new Guild would gain a very large amount of rewards very quickly. To prevent this imbalance, the invited Guild's chest rewards did not carry over after a merge.
