If you see something, please contact us via the Help menu, thank you for your support!

– New Application icon, this type starring an Archer 🙂

– Each account can now hold up to 4 characters, however the VIP level, Rubies, Items, etc are note shared between characters (possible Ruby/Items exploits otherwise)

– Character deletion requires to enter the keyword “DELETE”

– Deleted characters can be restored by players within 12h

– Winter is coming… but Winterfall is not opened yet (it will disappear from the World Map during the next maintenance) 🙂

– The Archer is the 4th class in Arcane Online and can be selected in the character creation screen.

– The Archer is using a bow and inflicts ranged physical damage.

– The Archer defense is low and his damage his not that high, but the Archer evasion is the highest and his skills include lots of debuffs.

– Note: it is NOT possible to “convert” an existing character to the Archer class, only way is to start a new character 🙂

– Dominion Wars are new guild vs guild instanced battles (20vs20) that are held once a week on Wednesdays from 8PM to 9PM server time.

– The goal is to fight to conquer one of the 6 territories.

– The 6 territories are split into two elements, Fire and Frost, and 3 level brackets: 40 to 49, 50 to 59, and 60+

– Each guild can bid Siege Points to apply to the Dominion Wars battles for one territory per element

– Up to 10 guilds can apply and compete for each territory.

– The battle opposes 2 teams of up to 20 players each for 10mn, in a “MOBA-like” battle!

– The winning guild for each element will gain access to the exclusive Dominion Hall, from where a Boss can be summoned once a day.

– The Boss will drop a chest (like the World Boss), which can contain various items including, if lucky, a Fairy Crest which is a new Legacy item.

– The Dominion Wars can be accessed from the Guild and Event menus.

– Please see the detailed FAQ and in-game guide [?] for more details. 🙂

– Buddies are new pets that you can collect, level up, gear up, and summon!

– You will get a Rooster Buddy at level 2, then you can obtain up to 5 Buddy Chests of common quality in the shop per day (1 per hour). You can also purchase chests containing buddies of Rare quality, and if lucky Epic or even Heroic!

– There are 28 buddies in total, of different rarity levels: 8 common, 8 rare, 6 epic and 6 heroic.

– Each of the 28 buddy has his own skill, active or passive.

– You can equip 1 active skill, and up to 3 passive skills. The active skill will be displayed in the main UI and can be activated manually or in auto hunt (check your Settings).

– The skills equipped are independent of the buddies you summon (once collected, you may even fuse a buddy and not own it anymore, you won’t lose the skills).

– You can level up your buddies up to max level 30 by using other buddy cards. The higher the rarity of the buddy, the more experience points it will give.

– Buddies of the same rarity can be fused to obtain a buddy of higher rarity (up to Heroic); as long as they are max level.

– 2 Epic Buddies and 2 Heroic Buddies can only be obtained by fusion (“Transcended” Buddies).

– Buddies can also equip defensive gear (not weapons), from Epic to Relic quality. The higher the rarity of the buddy, the more piece of gear it can equip; the higher its level the higher the bonus stats percentage obtained.

– You will need Buddy Coins to purchase Buddy MP potions, upgrade your buddy skills or gear slots, or rename your buddies.

– You can obtain Buddy Coins by selling materials or by cultivating the trees in the Farm.

– Please see the detailed FAQ (work in progress) and in-game guide [?] for more details. 🙂

– You can now add Ornaments to each Avatar.

– You can access the Ornaments menu when you open an Avatar detailed page and tap the “Next” button.

– You can obtain ornaments against the corresponding Raid Boss and in the Shop.

– Once you get 50 Ornaments for a given avatar, you can bind them to the Avatar to receive the corresponding stats bonus.

– This can be done up to 5 times for each avatar, the number of ornaments needed increasing at every upgrade.

– You can also craft one ornament by using 5 ornaments of the same area (not recommended at first!)

– Ornaments can be sold in the Auction House.

– 7 New Special Avatars can also be obtained from the Shop!

– You can now receive EXP Potions from Dailies, quests, dungeons and other rewards.

– EXP Potions exist in 5 Grades and gives 1,500 to 12,900 EXP.

– 3 EXP Potions of the same grade can be fused in an EXP Potion of higher grade

– You can use the EXP Potions from the character menu.

– Skills cooldown now resets when entering Duels, Battlegrounds, Siege War and Dominion Wars.

– The total rewards per day can now reach 300 Rubies, 150 Sapphires and 100,000 Gold!

– It may be difficult to get the 300 Rubies, but most players can probably reach 130 to 200 Rubies, 100,000 Gold and 150 Sapphires.

– Stars giving random blessings can now be re-activated for 100 Rubies.

– Such stars will appear in blue in each constellation, just tap on it to display the re-activation screen.
