Huzzah! ★ Summer Night! – July 1
Starting tomorrow, a new limited-time quest, “Huzzah! ★ Summer Night!” will be available. This quest supports up to 8 players and takes place near Sagan Mountain Road, which has been decorated for the festival. In this quest, the “new” character Miss Huzzah will guide players; as you progress through the quests, more decorations will be added, and the festival preparations will steadily come together! Vendor stalls and festival towers will be set up, and fireworks will light up the sky, completing the preparations for the festival. Once completed, take some screenshots and enjoy the summer night!
The 14-star Rarity armor, “Evalto Armor,” will be upgradable to a new 15-star Rarity armor using Evaltovance by participating in “Huzzah! ★ Summer Night”. Savalto Armor, which boosts HP and PP, and Savalto Armor: Lize, which significantly increases HP at the cost of reducing PP are available tomorrow. Both armor come with added Damage Resistance, providing greater protection against enemy attacks.
Major Target Suppression Mission: Sign of the Planetbreaker Rank – July 7
Major Target Suppression Mission: Sign of the Planetbreaker Rank 3 will begin on July 7th. Instead of Dark Falz Solus, Sols Krypt will show up to wreak havoc in this quest. The field has plenty of tricky elements, including illusory attacks that are ready to mess with players in never-before-seen ways! This is classified as an Ultra High-difficulty quest. As in previous Major Target Suppression Missions, up to four players can participate, and will fail the quest after a set number of incapacitations. Players can accept the quest from the Teleporter southwest of Central Retem as many times as they like, so be prepared before tackling this challenge! Along with this new quest, new Title Tasks will be added and Weekly Tasks will be updated. Complete the Tasks to get rewards like Titles and N-Master Cubes!
New 15-star Rarity Kinz weapons series are coming July 7. Kinz weapons come equipped with a Potential that grants Damage Resistance under certain conditions. Fulfill all three conditions and receive boosts to Critical Hit Potency and Critical Rate! A new Augment: C/Peta Triyal will also be available. It can be made at the Item Lab using Augment Capsule Exchange Enhancement Materials. Players will need to gather up the new Augment C/Refas Triya as well as C/Tera Triyal. These items can be obtained from the Major Target Suppression Mission: Sign of the Planetbreaker Rank 3 as well as other future content.
Limited-time Quest: “Drill: Purge the Ancient Ruins” – July 15
From July 15th, the Limited-time Quest: “Drill: Purge the Ancient Ruins” will begin. In this quest, up to 8 ARKS Defenders can party up to venture into the depths of the newly- discovered Ruins area.
