**2. Fiend Hunter update**

- One season of Fiend Hunter consists of two periods as shown below and lasts for a total of 4 weeks.
■ Fiend Hunter Season 1 Hunting Preparation Period: After September 20th maintenance – October 11th 2:59 pm (UTC)
■ Fiend Hunter Season 1 Hunting Period: After October 11th maintenance – October 18th 2:59 pm (UTC)
※ Season settlement takes place for a total of 5 hours from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm on the day the hunting period ends.
A. Fiend Hunter Battle
In each pack in which the Fiend Hunter progresses, a boss-level monster called a ‘Giant Fiend’ appears.
- In Character Pack 1, during the first season, a ‘Giant Fiend’ named, ‘Darkness Devourer’ born from the students' worries, despair, and dark hearts will appear.
- If a giant fiend appears in the character pack, you can proceed with the Fiend Hunter content after clearing the main quest.
- If a giant fiend appears in the story pack, you can proceed without any conditions.
B. Fiend Hunter Menu
When the Fiend Hunter is in progress, you can access the Fiend Hunter menu through a separate icon under the mini-map.
- During the hunting preparation period, you can check information on the giant fiend.
- When the hunting period begins, you can enter the battle right away by tapping 'Go Hunting' in the Fiend Hunter menu.
※ If you tap 'Go Hunting' in a pack where a giant fiend did not appear, you will automatically be moved to the pack where a giant fiend has appeared.
※ The Fiend Hunter UI button is not activated in the Welcome Pack.
C. How the Fiend Hunter content progresses
- During the hunting period, you can continue to challenge giant fiend without any restrictions.
- If you succeed in defeating a giant fiend, you can immediately challenge the next level giant fiend.
- Even if you fail to defeat the giant fiend, the record of the maximum damage inflicted that day is saved.
- Starting at 5 a.m. (Korean Server Time), you can continue the battle with a monster whose HP has been depleted based on the maximum damage inflicted the previous day.
- The ranking is determined by the highest level and HP remaining of the giant fiend reached during the one-week hunting period.
D. Fiend Hunter Ranking Calculation Method
- The rankings are calculated in order of the level of the giant fiend defeated.
If they are at the same level, the ranking is determined by the remaining HP of the giant fiend.
- If the remaining HP is the same, the ranking is determined by the highest amount of damage recorded in the first turn.
E. Fiend Hunter Reward
- Rewards for each level can be received cumulatively.
Ex.) If you clear up to level 5, you can obtain a total of 25 Draw Tickets.
[Clear rewards for each level]
[Ranking settlement reward]
※ You will only be counted in the ranking if you have a record of challenging more than once during the hunting period.
F. Attacking Fiend’s weaknesses and combat methods
[Weakness]
- Attacking the weak part of a giant fiend can cause greater damage than attacking other parts.
[Part]
- A giant fiend has several parts. Using range skills, you can attack multiple areas at once.
[Debuff]
- You can apply debuffs to each part of the giant fiend.
- By inflicting ‘ATK weakness’ debuff to the part where the fiend’s skill is used, you can reduce the damage your allies receive when a giant fiend attacks with that part.
[Fiend’s behavior]
- The giant fiend uses one set skill per turn, and on the last turn, it delivers a powerful attack that annihilates allies.
- All attacks from giant fiend cannot be avoided.
[Fixed range attack]
- Certain skills of giant fiend attack a fixed range. This skill ignores Taunt effect.

- The enemies’ HP decreased and their formation in the previous battle will be maintained.
- Continuing consumes more gold than retrying, and as the number of continuing in one battle increases, gold consumption also increases.
