All Rift Beasts are immune to all harmful effects and they have different Attack Bars as well as skill patterns. The Boss will use the skill when its Attack Bar reaches the designated skill, and the Boss will also use an Ultimate Skill when its Attack Bar is full. The Ultimate Skill is a very powerful skill that can defeat all of the Monsters, so users need to defeat the Boss before the Ultimate Skill is activated.

The defeated Boss will be under the Groggy State and users will be able to inflict even more damage during this state. When the Groggy State is over, users will have to battle against the Boss that has become even stronger. The battle will continue until all of the Monsters are defeated unless you put the Boss under the Groggy State 3 times and completely defeat the Boss. Users will still be able to collect rewards according to the amount of damage inflicted on the Boss even if the user fails to defeat the Boss, and users will also be able to strategize the battles according to the attribute, skills, and the ultimate skill of the Boss.

New type of a Monster, Homunculus

Homunculus is a system where the players can select the skill of their choice and Craft a Monster. Users can customize their Monsters by using the materials acquired from the Rift Dungeon, which will allow the users to strengthen their decks by working on what they’re lacking.

Homunculus will have 3 Active Skills and 1 Passive Skill. The Skill Evolution consists of a total of 5 Stages, and each stage will allow the users to enhance the Active Skill of their choice. The players will have to carefully make their decisions because the Monster’s skill will vary greatly by the skill Evolved in each stage. In addition, the players will be able to not only name the Monster they Crafted but also choose the Monster’s attribute.

▲ The Monster Attribute can be modified at the 1st Stage of Skill Evolution, and different skills can be selected in each stage.

New Craft Building, Create your own Sky Island!
Users will be able to use the Craft System in the [Craft Building] to make various content using the materials they acquired during gameplay.
