■ New content in UNDECEMBER’s new season ‘Trials of Power’ update
1. ‘Arena’ where the power is proved
 


In the new season ‘Trials of Power,’ new solo content ‘Arena’ is introduced.
From playing the content, users can face the strong enemies, monsters and bosses, and obtain the newly added Growth-type Gear, ‘Soul Stone.’

Users are able to obtain ‘Spirits,’ tickets to enter the ‘Arena,’ from hunting in Chaos Dungeons, and use the ‘Spirits’ to strengthen monsters appearing in the ‘Arena’ and summon powerful bosses.
Treasure Chests are spawned based on the number of areas activated and bosses summoned by using ‘Spirits’ and the score. It is important to make use of the spirits as the number of reward item drops increases by far according to the grade of the Treasure Chests.

In the ‘Arena,’ a creature that is made to project the Ancient Being, ‘Ectasis,’ appears as the first boss. Ectasis features poison attacks using colorful pollen, and ranged attacks using its thorns and tentacles.

The final boss of ‘Arena’ of New Season, ‘Manticore,’ has an upper body of a gorilla and a lower body of the Ancient Being, resembling a chimera, and alternately uses fire and poison attacks with heavier strikes.
 
2. New Growth-type Gear ‘Soul Stone’
 


The newly added Growth-type Gear, ‘Soul Stone,’ can be obtained in the new solo content ‘Arena.’
The characters will have a new Gear slot open for equipping a Soul Stone, and be able to enhance the ‘Soul Stone’ by increasing its level and expanding the slots using the exclusive Essence obtained from Arena.
 
Option stats of the ‘Soul Stone’ are applied as values that increase per level. Therefore, enchanting the Soul Stone with exclusive Essences gradually enables the powerful growth of the Soul Stone.
The ‘Soul Stone’ has a trigger option to summon a monster minion by chance that casts a skill under certain conditions, allowing the users build the strategical skill sets.
 
3. Purify the Souls! “Help! Hunters!”



A stage event ‘Help! Hunters!’ is held in Chaos Dungeons from January 9 to February 6 to celebrate the ‘Trials of Power’ update.
 
Users can obtain ‘Ashes’ while playing the Chaos Dungeon, and convert the ‘Chaos Card’ in possession to ‘Ash-covered Chaos Card.’ By using the ‘Ash-covered Card’ to play the Chaos content, event currencies are dropped that can be used to exchange for various items such as ‘Essences’ and ‘Unique Chests.’
 
Meanwhile, the event stage features a group of ghosts envisioned to mirror the game’s developers such as ‘Overworked Planner’ and ‘Anxious Programmer,’ providing the users of UNDECEMBER with more exciting fun.
 
4. ‘Zodiac Specialization’ revamp to ensure the new fun in combats
With the new season update, effects and mechanisms of the ‘Zodiac Specialization’ traits are revamped.
To differentiate the Specialization from the normal Zodiac Traits, several new effects are added such as Weapon Range Increase through Enlargement, and other traits are improved to provide the users with the fun of making different builds. The Zodiac Specialization traits will go through more improvements on future updates.
 
5. Other content updates and convenience improvements

There are updates on the previously serviced content and improvements to increase the gameplay convenience alongside the addition of new content.
 
First, ‘Solo Descent Raid’ is improved, and a feature to display all nodes of Zodiac traits is added. In addition, a function to save the triggered event in the Chaos Dungeon is introduces, and price adjustments are made to items in Disassemble Shop.

Growth support for new users of the game is also provided. Users can enjoy the benefits of obtaining Unique Selection Chests at each milestone of ‘Growth Pass’ and ‘New Attendance’ rewards and settle down faster to playing UNDECEMBER.


■ UNDECEMBER New Season ‘Trials of Power’ benefits


To celebrate the update of ‘Trials of Power’ and the 3rd year anniversary of its game service, UNDECEMBER holds various beneficial events.
First, ‘Zodiac Sprinter’ item that provides various functions as Auto Disassemble and Inventory Expansion is given to users’ mailboxes. Other high-class items are also provided including ‘Gold’ of which amount symbolizes the 3rd anniversary of game service, and ‘Unique Selection Chests.’
 
Alongside this, the ‘3 Year Anniversary Challenges’ reward users with key items essential for character growth, and new Unique items with much more benefits than those provided in previous challenges.

Furthermore, 10 types of Hot Time Event are held throughout the season in the Season Mode that increases Rune Master EXP, Statue EXP and Gold Gain Chance, allowing the users grow their characters much faster and getting them to the final stages of the content progress.
