- Under the influence of the Void, MVP monsters with natural respawn points (all MVPs except Nidhoggr's Shadow, Ktullanux, Entweihen Crothen, Naght Sieger, Celine Kimi) become stronger.
- Every hour MVPs increase their strength - HP and ATK by 10%, and DEF and MDEF by 1 to 2 points per hour. At the moment of increasing MVP's strength, its HP is restored by 100%. MVP can increase its attributes no more than 5 times. When an MVP dies, its strength resets. During server maintenance when the server is shut down for maintenance work, the current strength of MVP is preserved.

Void MVP

If the MVP has an innate Ghost element (level 4), the level of the element remains unchanged. The movement speed of the MVP increases. Void MVPs are not affected by hourly strength increases.
- Void MVP can become any MVP monster with a natural respawn point (all MVPs except Nidhoggr's Shadow, Ktullanux, Entweihen Crothen, Naght Sieger, Celine Kimi). Void MVP also cannot become a monster located in a castle dungeon.

- When Void MVP appears, the world is notified.
