Greetings, Adventurers!

Season 8 is approaching, bringing a new stage of progression and challenges across Shiltz.

From a Server Merge & New Server that brings Adventurers together to a new Rift,

expanded equipment progression, and new challenges beyond the current Tower of Sage,

Season 8 will continue to open new paths for strengthening your character.

Take a first look at what Season 8 will bring.
 

  Server Merge and New Server

Season 8 will begin with a server merge during maintenance on October 1st,
bringing Adventurers from the affected servers together.

For these communities, familiar adventures will become opportunities to meet new companions and rivals.

We hope the connections formed along the way will make your time in Shiltz even more enjoyable.

Alongside the server merge, a new server will also open,

offering Adventurers a fresh place to begin their journey.

Various events will be prepared to support Adventurers

starting out on the new server, so stay tuned for more details.

Please refer to Server Merge Detailed Announcement for the affected servers, maintenance schedule,

and important information to review before the merge.

  Level Cap Expansion

Season 8 raises the maximum character level to Lv. 170, opening the door to a new stage of progression.

With the level cap increased, new opportunities for character growth become available,

providing another milestone to pursue throughout Season 8.

  Season 8 Major Update Preview

The server merge is only the beginning.

New high-level challenges and additional progression systems will continue to arrive throughout Season 8,

giving you new goals to pursue beyond the progression introduced in previous seasons.

✦ New Rift : Swamp of Vengeance

A new Lv.160 Rift, Swamp of Vengeance, will open in Season 8.

Beyond the existing Rift challenges lies a new battlefield filled with

stronger enemies and new materials for the next stage of equipment progression.

New items such as Zikael's Soul Fragment and Forgotten King's Thought

will also be introduced as part of the new Rift progression.

Venture deeper into the Rift, face the threats waiting within the swamp,

and prepare for the next stage of Mythic equipment.

✦ New Mythic Equipment

Alongside Swamp of Vengeance, new Mythic Weapons and Accessories will be introduced.

The new equipment will open another stage of progression

for Adventurers ready to take on the challenges awaiting in the new Rift.

More details will be provided through the Season 8 Update Notes.

✦ Equipment Enhancement Level Cap Expansion

As new Mythic equipment arrives, the maximum enhancement level

of existing high-level equipment will also be expanded.

The expansion will apply to Weapons and Armor with an equip level of Lv.100 or above.

This expansion will provide additional room to strengthen equipment beyond

the current limit and prepare for the challenges arriving in Season 8.

※ When dismantling equipment crafted using an Ancient Design enhanced to +15 or higher,

all Ancient Designs used in crafting will be returned.

Detailed enhancement rates and related requirements will be provided through the Season 8 Update Notes.

✦ Tower of Sage Expansion

The journey through the Tower of Sage will continue beyond Floor 20.

With Season 8, Floors 21–25 will be added, offering new stages

for Adventurers who have already conquered the existing tower.

As you climb the newly added floors, you'll face stronger challenges while gaining additional opportunities to

obtain valuable progression materials, including Exquisite Arcane Stones and Ancient Design Fragments.

Continue your ascent and put the strength you've built throughout previous seasons to the test.

✦ Legendary Costume Synthesis

A new way to make use of Legendary Costumes is also coming in Season 8.

After this update, attempting Legendary Costume Synthesis will have a chance to grant a Mythic Costume.

Further details will be provided in the Patch Notes.

✦ New Grade Pets Arriving

Season 8 brings a brand-new tier of Pets for Adventurers to discover.

Take on even greater threats with your new companions by your side.

※ The order above does not reflect the actual update schedule.

Season 8 expands the journey beyond the progression built throughout previous seasons.

We look forward to seeing how far you'll push your progression throughout Season 8.

Thank you.
