DEVELOPER NOTE: SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER UPDATES Greetings, Workers! Developer L here. As the summer heat fades into autumn, we are gearing up to roll out several improvements designed to make your gameplay and progression smoother. We are constantly squashing core system bugs, and your reports have been invaluable apologies for any recent inconveniences caused by unforeseen issues. Here is a breakdown of what is coming soon and what we currently have in development. Scheduled Update: September 16 • Core Progression Adjustments We are easing the grind by increasing Desire Fragment drop rates and adding new sources for Amps (reroll tickets). Exact numbers will be detailed in the upcoming patch notes. • New Tera Brooch Crafting A brand-new crafting recipe will let you spend crafting materials and Zenny to acquire tradeable Tera Brooches. Specific materials will be announced soon. • Damage Meter Feature A combat meter is being introduced to track your damage dealt and overall contribution during and after battles. Use this as a helpful tool to evaluate your builds and progression paths. Currently in Development • New Maze While internal testing caused a few direction changes and slight delays from our initial dev note timeline, we chose to take our time rather than rush an unfinished experience. Final design choices are locked in, and we are aiming for a September release (subject to change based on production progress). • Ranking System Overhaul (Target: October Update) Weekly rankings are transitioning to a monthly format, launching first as a beta version for balancing. * Dynamic Bosses: The ranking boss will rotate monthly with unique rules, demanding fresh strategies and builds. * Brooch Restriction: Enlighten brooches will be disabled in ranked modes to promote broader build diversity. * New Rewards: Reward structures are being entirely reworked to heighten competition. • Chuseok Event Lineup * Drop & EXP Buff (Sep 24, 00:00 – Sep 27, 23:59): Enjoy +50% EXP and +50% drop rates (stacks with weekend boosting events). * Bingo Event: Clear missions to complete bingos for tiered rewards, plus extra community certification bonuses. * Soul Express: Fast-track support designed to help new and returning players catch up quickly. * SNS Event: A special Hanbok-themed community sharing event. Thank you for your continuous feedback as we work to make Cloudrealm a better place for everyone. See you in-game!
