– Rewards will be delivered to your in-game mailbox.
– Please note that this compensation delivery may take some time due to the amount of data that needs to be checked. We will inform our Heirs about this in a separate notice.
■ Pet UI Improvements
– We believe that displaying Pet related UI prior to Account Rank 20 can cause confusion to our Heirs, therefore, Pet related content will not be displayed prior to unlocking Pets.
* Pet related UI in the lobby will not be displayed.
* Pet related UI will not be displayed in the Team Formation area.
* Pet related items will not be displayed.
* The Pet Journal will not be displayed
* The Pet tab in the Shop will not be displayed.
■ Handmade Snack Acquisition Change
– Players will no longer receive Handmade Snacks in Hunt.
* From the 10/31 update, the probability of receiving Energy in Hunt was reduced by half, with the remaining half being allocated to the probability of receiving Handmade Snacks. However, receiving Handmade Snacks from Hunt did not meet the expectations of our Heirs for rewards received in this content, so Handmade Snacks will no longer be a droppable item.
– In the Shop, there will be a new Pet category added in which Handmade Snacks will be sold.
100 Friendship Points will be able to purchase 1 Handmade Snack (Limit: 10 Per Week)
– Handmade Snack Drop Changes: Players will not receive Handmade Snacks during Adventure, in the Side Story and in Treasure Chests prior to unlocking Pets.
■ Bug Fixes
– An issue that caused the Equipment Enhance and Gold Consumed Decrease effect granted by Lobby type Pets to not be applied will be fixed.
– An issue where, where the number of Repeat Battles would be set to the maximum instead of the number inputted will be fixed.
– An issue where the amount of Catalysts gifts given was different from the Skill Tooltip for Lobby type Pets will be fixed.
– An issue where an additional Lesser Hunt Charms skill effect from Battle type Pets was not being applied will be fixed.
■ Rune Item Recollection
– On 11/1 (Fri), an issue that caused players to obtain Runes when they clear a battle using a Pet that has a catalyst drop buff effect was fixed. The runes obtained cannot be used and will be recollected.
– Rare Catalyst Chests equal to the number of runes recollected will be distributed to your mailbox. (Storage period: 7 days)
* 11/7 (Thu) after the update ~ 11/13(Wed) 14:59 UTC (Storage period: 7 days)

– Some camping lines for Leo, Nemunas, and Lidica will be adjusted.
