Update Notes:

I. Season 5 [Season of Awakening] Officially Begins

● The new season begins—Season Phase, Season Missions, and the Season Shop will fully reset.

● Season Treasury, Patron Bundle, and Season Engrams will update simultaneously.

● The Emanare System resets and introduces all-new Season Emanare Abilities: "Battlefield Sprint," "Skybound Leap," and "Firmly Planted."
 

1. Awakening: Wolf

"When you gaze into the Solar, the Solar will also scorch your soul."

The deeper stage of Light energy dormant within "Wolf" is stirring. To fully master this overwhelming power, he must return to the most perilous zones and temper his will through combat. This is the trial of "Wolf," as well as a shared challenge for all the Lightbearers who have journeyed alongside him.

Participate in the "Awakening: Wolf" event. Complete Wolf's Trial and challenge missions to collect "Wolf's Awakening Insight." Gather 40 "Wolf's Awakening Insight" to complete Wolf's Awakening.

Once Awakening is complete, Wolf will be promoted to a Mythic Character and unlock an all-new ability—[Shadowless Wolf Strike]: Deal Solar damage to multiple enemies within an area centered on the crosshair and apply the [Wolf's Ignition] effect, then return to your current position.

Once Awakening is complete, Wolf's Ascend feature will unlock simultaneously. Through Ascension, you can further enhance Wolf's damage output and fully unleash his combat potential.
 

2. "Exotic Resonance" System Launches

The Exotic Resonance System adds three new Resonance slots to every Exotic weapon: "Harmonic Resonance," "Mastery Resonance," and "Protocol Resonance." Unlock and upgrade them by consuming the corresponding materials to progressively enhance weapon performance.

Each Resonance slot contains a Main Attribute and random attributes. Activating a Resonance slot for the first time unlocks the Main Attribute and 1 random attribute. The Main Attribute of "Protocol Resonance" is a weapon-exclusive effect that can significantly boost combat potential.

Use a "Harmonic Rune" to re-roll the random attributes. During re-rolling, there is a chance to gain additional attributes—up to 4 random attributes total.

If you roll a desirable attribute, use an "Anchor Rune" to lock it in place. Locked attributes will only have their values re-rolled during re-rolling, not their attribute type.

Note: In this update, only "Royal Contravene" has "Protocol Resonance" available. Protocol Resonance for other Exotic weapons will be unlocked gradually.
 

3. "Pack: Ultimate Trial" Launches

Pack Hunt adds "Ultimate Trial," "Investment," and "Fishing" nodes. Action Points can be used to explore these new nodes.

Ultimate Trial Details:

1. The Ultimate Trial is settled weekly, with priority sorting by damage output; in the case of a tie, sorting is done by time.

2. The Pack leaderboard takes the best result within the Pack, and rewards are distributed to all Pack Members. (Enter the Pack Homepage during the settlement period to claim automatically.)

3. Attacking different Large Strongholds grants different buff effects to enhance your Ultimate Trial Power.

4. Completing the Ultimate Trial increases the Pack's overall Ultimate Trial Progress to unlock Bundles. Each person can contribute up to 3 Progress points per week.

5. Once the Ultimate Trial Pack Bundle is purchased by one person, all Pack Members can claim the Pack portion of the rewards.
 

4. Seasonal Activity "Bulwark Ops" Launches

Activity Overview: Saladin has discovered numerous Warmind bunkers near the town of Viridiana, but the bunkers are under enemy attack, putting the Golden Age technological legacy at risk!

Activity Modes:

● [Solo Mode] Clear 9 individual stages to unlock Solo Endless Mode and Trio Endless Mode.

● [Trio Mode] Standard co-op mode—work with your teammates to defend the bunker against 5 waves of enemies to win.

● [Endless Mode (Solo/Trio)] Enemy difficulty is fully upgraded. Hold out as long as you can and challenge higher waves!
 

5. "Carry on the Flame" Begins

Once the Season of Awakening begins, players can claim refund rewards for materials invested in Emanare and Bulwark Ops via "Activities" - "Carry on the Flame."

Emanare Refund Rules:

100% full refund of all materials actually consumed in the Season of Wishes Emanare System.

Bulwark Ops Refund Rules:

Points and corresponding rewards are calculated based on Defense Tower tiers and star ratings obtained in the Bulwark Ops activity during the Season of Providence.
