Game Updates

The acquisition rate of Living Steel has been adjusted

• Living Steel Chest in World Tier 3: Increased from 1 to 2.
  • There is an additional chance for 1-2 extra Living Steels to drop.
• Living Steel Chest in World Tier 4: Increased from 3 to 5.
  • There is an additional chance for 5 extra Living Steels to drop.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where Living Steel Chests could not properly spawn.
  Developer’s Note: Part of this fix was to remove Living Steel Chest Guardian monsters. This improves the functionality of the chest for the time being, however we would like to bring the guardian back once we can ensure the interaction does not cause this issue.

• Fixed an issue where some players could be prevented from logging in to the game with an error code stating the Season is over.
• Fixed various issues where players could not properly complete Season Journey Objectives.
