This update also delivers a Reboot World revamp, allowing players to create their own Zero character and explore the Mirror World alongside Alpha and Beta. Arcane River Droplet Stones and Stone Origin Droplets will also fall from monsters in the Tenebris area.
For all non-Reboot players, plenty of special fun awaits. The Star Force Enhancement Event sets players on a quest to hold on to the Sealed Star Energy for 60 minutes. Once unsealed, they’ll receive the Liberated Star Energy buff that grants a 30 percent discount to the Star Force Enhancement cost for a set amount of time.
Available on Jan. 6, 2021, Maplers can traverse the mysterious depths of the Esfera Sea with an all-new level 240 Arcane River Theme Dungeon: Sellas, Where the Stars Rest.
