Dev Interview: Legend Cards
Greetings, Saviors! In a previous roadmap post, our devs talked about a new type of cards – called the Legend Boss Cards – that are being developed for the middle slot in the card equip system. We were curious to see how this feature was looking so far and what we could expect when it finally comes out in the game, so we took some time to test it out with the developer in charge. <Card equip window showing a Legend Card with +10 movement speed. Nice.> Staff: It looks like your plans for the Legend Card feature are coming along really well! Though, looking at how these new cards are being referred to, I noticed you’re not calling them “Legend Monster Cards” anymore, but only “Legend Cards”. Are you worried that players might confuse them for cards with legendary monsters in them, or…? Dev: Actually, we decided to call them that because there’s a chance we might want to make Legend Cards out of TOS characters that aren’t monsters. Staff: Gasp! Do you mean human NPCs? Maybe even… villains? Like this one? Dev: Well… I’m a big fan of Giltine myself, so I can’t say it hasn’t crossed my mind. Staff: Sweet. Moving on to another topic, last December during the Rank update we got new quest lines and a new Revelation thrown into the lore of TOS. It also seems like the quest to unlock the Legend Card slot is going to connect to the Revelations. I’m just wondering: where does it end? I see myself playing TOS for many years to come (☆ TOS 4EVER ☆) so I’m worried that we’ll never see the end of all these Revelations. Are you going to continue adding new Legend Card quests as well? Dev: The Legend Card unlock quest will only deal with Revelations introduced up to the point when the feature is first released. Staff: So that is the first and last time Legend Cards and Revelation quests will ever be related? Dev: I can’t really talk about what’s going to happen to the story in the future, so… Staff: Right, spoilers. Well, I had a look at the list of cards you’re planning to add and I saw a lot of familiar names. Apart from the “Powerful Kugheri Balzermancer” and the “Pantorex”, they were all Monster Cards we already have in the game. Does that mean these cards have a regular version and a Legend version? Dev: Yes. The regular cards are going to have the same stats they do now; the new ones are going to have more. The difference is that the regular cards will be available from Mercenary Post missions and Card Albums. Also, if you summon a monster from a Legend Card instead of a regular demon card, your summon will be bigger and the visual effects will be different. <Summoning with a Boss Card.> <Summoning with a Legend Card.> Staff: Cool. Looking at the stats of the new Legend Cards, it seems like there’s a big difference in what stats these cards have depending on where you get them. Is that meant to reflect the difficulty of the different game features from where the Legend Cards drop? Dev: Correct. Legend Cards obtained from more difficult game features will come with juicier stats. The Powerful Kugheri Balzermancer, for example, is a card you can get from the Unique raid dungeon. Unlike other places that drop Legend Cards, this dungeon has no competitive component and it has a lower degree of entrance restrictions. In this context, we’ll be increasing the competitive factor of field bosses and upping their difficulty level in order to boost the chances of acquiring Legend Cards. The Pantorex monster from guild quests is also going to see an increase in difficulty. Staff: So I was right. But there’s something I’m really curious about. How many cards do you need to get a Legend Card to Lv 10? Dev: Legend Cards are going to increase levels via card enhancement, a system different from traditional card synthesis. The reason we chose this was that, although combining cards is a safer mechanism, it requires large amounts of fodder to reach maximum level. Applying the exact same method to Legend Cards would make it way too tiring for players to boost up them up, so we added a shortcut process that lets you get to your target level faster with a bit of luck. Staff: When I was testing the card enhancement, I noticed that you can only use 4 other cards to enhance a Legend Card, though. And even with four Lv 10 Legend Cards as fodder, the chance of success from 3 to 4 stars still wasn’t 100%. Why is that? Is there no way to get 100% chance of enhancement with Legend Cards? Dev: That’s the shortcut process I was talking about. We realize that some players – like yourself – will still prefer the original card combination method, so we created another mechanism that lets you use high-grade, high-level cards to achieve 100% chances of enhancement. Under this mechanism, using other Legend Cards or enhancement cards designed specifically for Legends guarantees that your card gets another star. <Legend Card with 100% chance of enhancement.> Staff: I see, that’s a relief. I’d rather go the safe route, even if it takes a little longer. It looks like you can also increase the star level of Legend Enhancing Cards by combining them with other cards; is that right? How does that work? Dev: That’s right. You can feed regular cards to a Legend Enhancing Card via the normal card combination process to increase its star level. As you can probably guess, Legend Enhancing Cards are used to enhance Legend Cards only. The chances of success when using a Legend Enhancing Card as fodder are up to 5 times higher when compared to regular cards, so they’re something to keep in mind if you want to play safe. <You can increase the star level of a Legend Enhancing Card by combining it with other cards.> Staff: Alright! Those are all the questions I had for you today. Thank you very much for your time and for letting us play around with this new feature. I can’t wait for it to come out. Dev: No problem! I’m looking forward to what our players have to say about it too.

February 2018 Limited Edition Golden Pup
Greetings Saviors, It’s no secret that our Developers have been working on a new doggy companion, but what you may not have known is that we will be releasing not only Goro, but also a new limited edition Golden Pup that will be available from the Goddess' Blessed Cube in February. This Golden Pup was created to celebrate the fact that this year is the Year of the Dog. Or, more precisely, the Year of the “Golden” Dog. For those of our players who are already familiar with the Lunar Calendar and the Chinese Zodiac, this will not come as a surprise. But for everyone else, this year, starting on February 16th is the Year of the Golden Dog. How was this decided? Well, to number the years, one system used in conjunction with the Lunar Calendar is the Stem-and-Branches system. The Stem-and-Branches system is a cycle of sixty terms used for telling time in traditional East Asian culture. These terms consist of two Chinese characters paired up according to their yin and yang. So the term for this year can be translated into Golden Dog. This then means that we can call 2018 the Year of the Golden Dog, a designation that comes around only once every sixty years. To celebrate this special event we will be offering a limited edition companion named, Golden Pup to help ring-in the year. Who wouldn't want to start the year of the royal doggo with a royal doggo of their own? Don't forget that this 2018 limited edition Golden Pup will be available from the Goddess' Blessed Cube in February! We hope you will look forward to his arrival as we all move to celebrate the Lunar New Year!

[EDITED] Intense Balancing: Wizard and Swordsman Trees
Greetings, Saviors! This time around in our Intense Balancing series, we’re covering a whole roster of Wizard and Swordsman classes and the plans we’re making to adjust their skills. But first, we’d like to talk about some damage calculation changes we’re also working on. Damage Increase/Decrease Calculation Changes So far, damage increasing and decreasing options in TOS have always been calculated by summing and subtracting the corresponding factors. Now, we have plans to change damage reduction options into multiplication formulas which affect the amount of damage the attacked target receives. Attacker Damage increase 25% (A) Target Damage taken decrease 25% (B) Before = (100% (base) + 25% (A)) - 25% (B) = 0% (100% damage received) After = (100% (base) + 25% (A)) x 0.75 (B) = 0.93 (93% damage received) As you can see, a 25% damage reduction can be rather useful (75% damage received), but when the attacker’s damage increase option is powerful, the effects don’t quite live up to the expectations. With the new calculation formula, however, that option reduces the damage received by 25% in a more intuitive way. On the other hand, in cases when your opponent has no damage increasing options and you have several damage reducing factors, your damage reducing effects can become less noticeable than what they currently are. See the example below. Attacker : No damage increases Target : Damage taken decrease 25% (A) : Damage taken decrease 15% (B) Before = 100% (base) -25% (A) - 15% (B) = 60% (60% damage received) After = (100% (base)) x 0.75 (A) x 0.8 (B) = 0.64 (64% damage received) Also, unlike damage reductions, damage increases will continue to be calculated by sum. Attacker : Damage increase 25% (A) : Damage increase 15% (B) Target : Damage taken decrease 25% (C) : Damage taken decrease 15% (D) Before = 100% (base) + 25% (A) + 15% (B) -25% (C) -15% (E) =100% (100% damage) After = (100% (base) + 25% (A) + 15% (B)) x 0.75 (C) x 0.85 (D) = 0.89 (89% damage) Damage effects from property relations are calculated first and added to the final multiplication. This process applies after the target’s damage reductions are calculated. Attacker (50% increase from Ice-Fire relation) : Damage increase 25% (A) : Damage increase 15% (B) Target (Fire property) : Damage taken decrease 25% (C) : Damage taken decrease 15% (D) Before = 100% (base) + 25% (A) + 15% (B) + 50% (property) -25% (C) -15% (E) = 150% (150% damage) After = (100% (base) + 25% (A) + 15% (B)) x 0.75 (C) x 0.85 (D) x 1.5 (property) = 1.34 (134% damage) We hope the change of damage reduction and property relation calculations to multiplication formulas will help players understand them more intuitively. Having all increase and decrease formulas sum up means that it can be hard for players to figure out how they work, especially not knowing an opponent’s damage increasing stats. With these changes, if your damage reduction factor is 30%, you get 30% less damage; if you have a 50% bonus based on property, you can expect 1.5 times the damage, and so on. Increased Property Attack Damage on Status Ailments We will be applying a damage increase effect to some property attacks which influence enemies under certain status ailments. Lightning attacks +50% damage dealt to frozen enemies Fire attacks +50% damage dealt to petrified enemies Dark attacks +50% damage dealt to cursed enemies Alright, let’s get on with the class balancing plans.

The duration of Fireball is changed to 10 sec, and the ball remains after hitting the enemies (will not attack enemies that were already hit, nor be pushed by Psychic Pressure). New C2 attribute Fireball: Residual Heat increases the duration of Fireball. Fire Pillar [C2 Skill] Fire Pillar is no longer nullified by status ailment resistance. The radius of the skill is enlarged and its cooldown is decreased dramatically. Hell Breath [C3 Skill] Casting Hell Breath consumes 1 Pyrite (purchasable from the Pyromancer Master for 80 Silver). Hell Breath is uninterruptible while being cast. The skill’s hit rate is increased, its area growing more than 3 times in length, and about 1.5 times in width.

Spirit Shock [C2 Skill] New Spirit Shock is a new attack skill that links to the enemy’s spirit and inflicts spiritual damage. Spirit Shock works on a single enemy. Casting Soul Link disconnects the link with the previous target, although it can also be disconnected with Unbind. Enemies under Spirit Shock take Psychokinesis type damage while the skill is active (3 to 8 sec), and the link disconnects when it reaches a certain distance from the caster. Adding new attributes Spirit Shock: Enhance (C2), Spirit Shock: Confusion (C2), and Spirit Shock: Mental Pressure (C3). Spirit Shock: Mental Pressure decreases a linked enemy’s physical defense dramatically and inflicts additional damage in proportion to the caster’s SPR. Lifeline [C3 Skill] Duration per skill level is increased. Thaumaturge [Wizard: Rank 4] Swell Left Arm [C1 Skill] Swell Left Arm no longer increases the attack of subweapons, and it consumes 1 Magic Powder when cast (Magic Powder is purchasable from the Thaumaturge Master; its price changed to 100 Silver). New attribute Swell Left Arm: Summons (C1) increases physical/magic damage of the caster’s summons per attribute level. Swell Right Arm [C2 Skill] Swell Right Arm no longer increases the attack of weapons, and it consumes 1 Magic Powder when cast. New attribute Swell Right Arm: Summons (C1) increases physical/magic defense of the caster’s summons per attribute level. Swell Brain [C3 Skill] Casting the skill consumes 2 Magic Powder. New attribute Swell Brain: Fast Operation applies the same level of Quick Cast as Swell Brain per attribute level. Quick Cast is applied only to the caster, and does not require Quick Cast (Wizard C3 skill). Elementalist [Wizard: Rank 4] Electrocute [C1 Skill] The damage of Electrocute no longer decreases when transferred to next target, the overheat is increased to 4 times, and the area for the first target is widened. Attribute Electrocute: Freezing Magic Damage is removed. Stone Curse [C1 Skill] Enemies under the influence of Stone Curse take additional Psychokinesis type damage.

Storm Dust can be cast in a way similar to Frost Cloud. It has a larger effect area and inflicts half of its damage to flying enemies as well. Attributes Storm Dust: Enhance (C2), Storm Dust: Slow (C2) and Storm Dust: Humpback (C3) are added, while attributes for Frost Cloud are removed.

Reincarnate [C1 Skill] Casting Reincarnate consumes 5 Time Crystal Fragments. Quicken [C1 Skill] The attack speed increase is reduced to a base of 50%, with the remaining 50% determined according to the caster’s SPR and the recipients’ level. For example, after these changes are applied, Quicken will increase attack speed by 175 at level 15 (originally 330). Considering a caster with 200 SPR and a recipient with a level of 250, then 200/250 = 80%, meaning +80% (+140) is added to the base value of 175, which results in a final attack speed increase of 315. This increase according to SPR and level will not exceed 100% of the initial base value. Duration is changed to 120 sec at skill level 15, consuming 1 Time Crystal Fragment. Haste [C2 Skill] Similarly to Quicken, the attack speed increase is reduced to a base of 50%, with the remaining 50% determined according to the caster’s SPR and the recipients’ level. If you and your party members can maintain a decent amount of SPR (including items), your Quicken and Haste will perform very closely to how they do now. You’ll have to consider the effect this change will have with other builds, however, like full INT dealers or high STR PvP-oriented builds. The skill consumes 1 Time Crystal Fragment, and its duration at Lv 10 changes from 80 to 120 sec. Backmasking [C3 Skill] Casting Backmasking consumes 2 Time Crystal Fragments (Time Crystal is the new name of the Dimensional Essence item sold by the Chronomancer Master; its price is also changed to 2,000 Silver). Pass [C3 Skill] Passed skills cannot be passed again until after the skill is used. Pass also consumes 1 Time Crystal. This means that you will not be able to bring a skill’s cooldown back to 0 by using Pass multiple times when there are 50 sec left, for example. The passed skill can be affected by Pass again once that skill is cast. Rune Caster [Wizard: Rank 6] Rune Caster: Skilled Casting [C1 Attribute] Removed the penalty that reduces skill duration if Quick Cast hasn’t been learned. Regardless of whether Quick Cast was learned, a basic duration of 5 min is applied. Meanwhile, Quick Cast’s casting time reduction effects are applied in the same way as currently (Lv 1 effects are applied if Quick Cast was not learned). Rune of Protection [C1 Skill] Removed status ailment resistance, and added immunity to knockback and knockdown. This effect applies only to the caster, but can be connected to party members via link. Casting time is changed to 2 sec, duration up to 150 sec, and skill cooldown to 180 sec (casting time for all Rune Caster skills is changed to 2 sec). Attribute Rune of Protection: Critical Resistance is changed to Rune of Protection: Maintain Casting, which makes casting uninterruptible when Rune of Protection is on. However, Rune of Protection: Maintain Casting decreases the duration of Rune of Protection. Rune of Destruction [C1 Skill] Damage factor and effect area of Rune of Destruction are increased, and casting time is decreased to 2 sec, with cooldown at 40 sec. New Attribute Rune of Destruction: Magic Defense Destruction decreases magic defense of enemies hit by Rune of Destruction in proportion to attribute level.

Rune of Giants [C1 Skill] Rune of Giants is changed to allow using buff skills in giant mode, with damage applied once on every landing. Casting time is changed to 2 sec. Rune of Justice [C1 Skill] The character can move while casting Rune of Justice. The damage factor is increased, inflicting double the damage to Demon type enemies. Casting time is also changed to 2 sec and duration to 30 sec. Warlock [Wizard: Rank 7] Dark Theurge [C1 Skill] Dark Theurge’s damage factor is increased by 4.5 times, attacking 5 times. Skill cooldown is changed to 30 sec. Mastema [C1 Skill] Effect area becomes 1.5 times larger. Sabath [C2 Skill] The additional damage function is removed, and changed to increase the damage of following evil spirits in proportion to skill level. Skill cooldown is changed to 30 sec, and maximum duration to 10 sec. Drain [C2 Skill] Drain is changed to increase dark Property damage in proportion to the number of evil spirits absorbed. Duration of Drain is 30 sec, with cooldown set to 40 sec. Enchanter [Wizard: Rank 8] Enchant Lightning [C1 Skill] Casting Enchant Lightning consumes 1 Enchant Round (can be crafted with attribute Craft Enchant Round, and requires Magic Powder to craft. The price of Magic Powder is changed to 100 Silver. 10 Magic Powder are needed to craft one Enchant Round). New attribute Enchant Lightning: Psychic changes the property of Psychic Pressure and Gravity Pole to Lightning property. Enchant Earth [C1 Skill] Enchant Earth consumes 1 Enchant Round when cast. Sage [Wizard: Rank 8] Dimension Compression [C2 Skill] Overheat of Dimension Compression is increased to 2. Shadowmancer [Wizard: Rank 8] Shadow Pool [C1 Skill] The caster becomes invincible during the casting of Shadow Pool. Next up, Swordsman changes. Swordsman Subweapon Basic Attack Skill Changes In Swordsman tree class attack skills that use a shield or dagger, we are providing additional attack to the skills’ corresponding equipment items. First, for shield skills, the equipped shield will receive additional physical attack corresponding to part of its base physical defense value. For instance, if your physical attack is 1,000 and your shield’s physical defense is 500, with a skill that applies 30% of your shield’s defense, you get 30% of 500, i.e. 150, added to your attack, meaning a base physical attack value of 1,150. With two-handed attack skills used in conjunction with a dagger, currently only your physical attack counts to 100%.
