Operation Report

Q&A Session

Could you increase the rarity of the Battle Triggers?
I often don't notice that they have dropped.

As players suggested, in a future update we plan to change the rarity of Battle Triggers to ★4 so they display a rare drop effect when dropped. With that, we are also discussing adding a function to filter the rare drop effect by item category so you can easily tell if it's a weapon or armor.

We want more perks for joining a party.

We plan to implement a party bonus feature with boosts that increase the amount of EXP and meseta you gain, as well as the rare drop rate.

Battle Triggers are rare and Battledia are difficult to complete,
so I don't want Battledia included in Limited-time Tasks.

We are discussing how to make it easier to get into Battledia when we include Battledia Quests as a requirement for limited-time tasks in the future, such as by sending out the amount of B-Triggers you need to play once.

According to the info released before the NGS launch, Summoner was to be released following Spring 2022, but there were no plans included in the roadmap from early December. What happened?

Before the NGS launch, the goal was to release Summoner around Spring 2022. However, we've had to lower the priority of its development to focus on improving content and expanding adventuring elements based on the feedback we've received post-launch. Thus, we estimate that the release of Summoner will be in late 2022.

Players' Survey

October 27th Content

Many survey respondents stated they were dissatisfied and very dissatisfied with the game.

The development team humbly acknowledges that various bugs have caused trouble for the players, and the current quality and volume of content is unsatisfactory. They will make further efforts to improve for the future.

They will take appropriate measures against the issues to prevent them from reoccurring.

As for the content they released the Retem region in December but feel they have a long way to go to meet everyone's expectations.

Based on the comments and suggestions from the roadmap, they plan to improve and release more content in addition to those revealed in the roadmap.

The most pressing reason why players were dissatisfied was because they have run out of things to do in the game. They also felt the new events were boring.
