New class — Blood Rose

The Blood Rose is a new hybrid class for Dark Elves. This deadly enchantress fights with daggers
as well as magic. The Blood Rose specializes in controlling enemies and applying debuffs on them;
she reduces her opponents’ magic defense, max health, and received healing.

New guardian — Glassia

The RoseVain update introduces another guardian, Glassia. This ice witch will become your faithful battle companion
along with the mighty Raven and valiant Vulcan. Glassia is unpredictable: her attacks are based on distance to her
enemies and their health. Check out the new guardian that turns enemies’ blood to ice.

Massacre

Deals physical damage to a single target. The attack type automatically changes based on the distance to the enemy.

The attack type changes based on the distance to the target. Deals magic damage and absorbs HP. In melee, it becomes an AoE attack.

For the guardian: When Avalanche is used, a wave of cold hits the enemy, increasing critical damage or damage from magic skills. For the master: Increases resistance to controlling debuffs (Stun, Hold, etc.), boosts MP recovery, and reflects a part of received damage back to the attacker.

What else is in the update?

Dominator and Doomcryer: renewal

Get ready to sow fiery chaos with renewed vigor, as Dominators and Doomcryers will get a massive boost to their powers. Their current skills will be reworked, and new ones added. For example, the Vortex of Fire skill will let you attack enemies with fire, while Crimson Flame will enhance your magic and spread the Vortex effect to nearby targets.

New PvE competition

The update will bring a new cross-server dungeon, the Source of Evil. Gather a team of five people, fight your way to the boss and defeat it. The team that deals more damage wins. As a reward, you will get masks, circlets, talismans, and armor.

New party dungeons

— Fafurion’s Nest: Each Sunday, players of the main Essence servers will be able to conquer the dragon’s lair. 50 people will get inside automatically to try to defeat Fafurion himself. All participants will receive rewards, and if you emerge victorious, you’ll get golden chests and boss’ runes!
— Ifrit’s Temple: Players from the special servers will get access to Ifrit’s Temple. Gather a party of five, slay monsters, and defeat the final boss. You’ll be rewarded with agathions, jewels, augmenting stones, and spellbooks!

New hunting zones

Aden’s Royal Cemetery: This zone has three difficulty levels. Watch out for Memorial Braziers in the center and inner area. To light them, you’ll have to kill a special boss, which will summon tons of Fire monsters.
Whispering Woods: A safe haven for PvE lovers. Two hours of daily farming will give you a huge amount of XP without any stress and threat from other players.

Which server do I choose?

Mint

Sienna

Classic

Main Essence servers. They are based on the earlier Chronicles. Their focus is on leveling, grinding, open PvP, and raid bosses.

Eva

Special

A server with a specialized economy. Farm adena by killing monsters and spend it on equipment in the game store. Also, here you won’t find some of the most complex game mechanics.
