- Chests now also drop from MVPs summoned through the skill "Abracadabra."
Void MVP
- After the death of Void MVP, teleporting to the MVP's death map will be unavailable for 5 minutes using the Teleportation Stone.
- Items dropped on the ground in the presence and death locations of Void MVP have a 5-minute lifetime.
- The skill "Greed" does not work at Void MVP map and for some time after the MVP's death.
Memory Bonfire
- Added a collection of "Secrets of Ancient Ruins" cards. Bonus: +0.1% Chance to trigger the "Class Change" skill when using the "Abracadabra" skill.
Quest Board
- MVP Hunting and Elite MVP Hunting quests now operate under standard mechanics, with an MVP kill counter appearing in the top right corner of the screen. Kills will be credited to all players within the radius for quest progress. The MVP Hunt quest has a shared MVP kill counter.
- If a player is in a group and is undertaking an MVP hunting quest, and their target is an MVP, then the radius in which group members will receive credit for killing the monster is tripled (three screens).
- The mechanics for taking/turning in Endless Tower quests have been updated and optimized.
- Rewards for completing Elite MVP Hunting and Endless Tower quests have been recalculated.
- Quests assigned to the account are also displayed on other characters on the account if they have not been completed.

Daily Tower
- MVPs now appear in the Daily Tower according to their MVP ranks (see table on the wiki page).
- On the easy difficulty level, MVP monsters do not receive enhancements, while on the medium difficulty level, MVPs are enhanced by 50%.
- Rewards for the Daily Tower have been recalculated. Increased Newstyle Coin rewards are given to each player. Upon completing the Daily Tower, players can now receive Special Boxes containing seasonal boxes. Special Boxes are distributed to the group, and their distribution occurs at the start of the Daily Tower. If it's not possible to evenly divide the group reward among each member, any remaining rewards are randomly distributed among group members, with priority given to the group leader. This distribution occurs at the start of the daily tower, and each player must complete the tower to receive their share of the distributed reward. If a group member leaves the Daily Tower, their reward cannot be claimed by another group member and will be lost. Special Boxes are placed in a temporary backpack upon receipt (@backpack).
- Additionally, after completing the Daily Tower, characters receive a certain amount of experience that is shared with the homunculus and can only be increased by having premium status and account rate settings.
- The wiki article has been updated accordingly (read wiki).

At levels 9 and 10, the chance increases by 0.1%. Additionally, the Sage Rating influences the chance of summoning an MVP.
