MAJOR UPDATES - AGRIS FEVER FOR GATHERING
You can now use Agris Fever Points for Gathering, so toggle on this function to gather more materials than before! However, just as Agris Fever only applied to common (gray) loot, its effects will now be only applied to basic resources (single processed such as tree and ore types) and not rare resources like Black Crystal Shards or special resources like Truffle Mushrooms.Originally Agris Fever was designed to help adventurers with barely an hour of time to play per day to reap the maximum amount of "fruit" from their in-game labors. While it was difficult to apply Agris Fever's effects to all Life Skills, we deemed Gathering, the basis to all Life Skills, worth benefiting from its effects. We hope this update will be a meaningful quality-of-life improvement to all of our Life-skilling adventurers out there.
◆ Applied effects of Agris Fever to Gathering with the following Life Skill tools.
◇ When gathering with Agris Fever toggled on, you will consume the following points per attempt.
| Life Skill Tool (Gatherable Resource) | Agris Fever Consumed | ||
| Pickaxe (Ores and Rough Metals) | 42 points | ||
| Fluid Collector (Bloods and Sap) | 34 points (blood) 30 points (sap) |
||
| Butcher Knife (Meats) | 34 points | ||
| Hoe (Herbs, Flowers, Mushrooms, etc.) | 22 points | ||
| Tanning Knife (Hides, Furs, and Feathers) | 22 points | ||
| Lumbering Axe (Timber) | 22 points |
eg. After completing up to the Book of Margahan Vol. 1 Chapter 5, you will benefit from an Item Drop Amount +150% boost when Agris Fever is toggled on. If you attempt to gather Lion Meat, the following effects can be applied.
1. Basic gathered amount: 2 to 4
2. With Agris Fever effects applied (Item Drop Amount +150%): 5 to 10
3. With at least 2,000 Gathering Mastery (Basic Resources Quantity +400%): 10 to 20
4. With at least 2,000 Gathering Mastery (Basic Resources Quantity +400%) and Agris Fever effects applied (Item Drop Amount +150%): 13 to 26
1. Basic gathered amount: 2 to 4

MAJOR UPDATES - Solare Hall of Fame
We've added a hall of fame to honor the greatest warriors ever to grace the Arena of Solare. You will find it right at the entrance to the Battle Arena, where you'll find the likenesses of 24 adventurers who ranked #1 in their respective classes during the past season of Solare. Adventurers who interact with these likenesses will be granted the "Blessing of a Great Knight" buff as well. We've prepared this hall of fame to celebrate those adventurers who displayed phenomenal talent and skill in the arena, and we hope this meaningful installment will have other adventurers take part in the reverie as well as feel motivated to challenge the next season of Arena of Solare themselves.In addition, this hall of fame will be managed by season, just like the Arena of Solare. The adventurers currently on display will remain until the end of the next season when new heroes have been decided. With many of our adventurers anticipating the next season, we want to announce that season 2 of Arena of Solare will be coming this winter, renewed and improved. Thank you.
◆ Installed the Solare Hall of Fame at the Battle Arena.
◇ The adventurers finishing in the top of their class in the Arena of Solare will now have their likenesses displayed as statues in the hall of flame.
◇ These "Solare Knight" statues will be displayed in the order the classes were released, and you can interact with them and exchange 20 Energy to gain the "Blessing of a Great Knight" buff.
◇ This boon will grant you Breathing EXP +10% for 10 hours.
※ Similar to the God of Fishing display, the Solare Knight statues will reflect the customizations of each adventurer. However, outfits and Family names will not be regularly updated.
