Lost Ark: Rise of the Valkyrie - August Update
The Valkyrie is about to descend upon Arkesia
August 19 - Amazon Games has launched Lost Ark’s August update: “Rise of the Valkyrie”. This update debuts the highly-anticipated Valkyrie class, alongside the Rise of the Valkyrie event, Trust Point System, Twinkle Twinkle Exchange event, Hyper Awakening changes and much more!
- Valkyrie Class - The Valkyrie is a new support-type class that heals allies and leads the battlefield with the power of light. Players can protect their team with sacred auras and buffs, take the front line using her one-handed sword with skills of Holy Radiance and Justice and give nearby party members enhanced combat abilities with the Light Unleashing skill. Those ready to master Valkyrie can take on a Class Awakening Quest, which includes 10 new achievements, a new title, a new trophy and a Training Room Guide.
- Rise of the Valkyrie Event - From August 20 to November 19, players can select a single character between Item level 1640 and 1681 to receive rewards. It can be paired with the Mokoko Challenge Express or activated on another character. The event will also introduce a new Event Powerpass, which can be stacked with the M49 Powerpass.
- The Trust Point System - The Trust Point system lets players earn “trust” through gold-consuming growth activities, with the amount of trust held affecting transaction fees and the ability to trade with other players. Trust will be shown in mail and trade windows, and notifications for changes in trust will appear in the system message.
- Twinkle Twinkle Exchange Event - The Twinkle Twinkle Exchange event will add a limited-time Event Gold Shop from August 20 to September 17, allowing players to exchange Gold for valuable rewards, including honing materials, Relic and Legendary Engravings, Card Packs and more. Players can also purchase random chest packs that yield Golden Frog Tokens, which can be redeemed for additional items.
- Ebony Cube Revamp - Ebony Cube rewards will double starting from M50, with the cube ticket drop rate decreasing by 50% across the board. Ebony Cube tickets in players’ inventory will be exchanged at a 2:1 ratio to reflect the upcoming changes as well as the conversion of Cube Selection Chests to Fragments. At an exchange vendor, 2 Fragments can be exchanged for an Ebony Cube Ticket at the desired value. Players can also exchange excess or remaining Fragments for Silver.
- Hyper Awakening in T3 - Players will be able to learn Hyper Awakening skills in T3. The change will improve T3 player experience and add more fairness to Crucible ranking in Paradise. T3 players will be able to use the latest skill mechanism and challenge crucible ranking for more Hell Keys.
