    Haha, I suppose it’s to be expected when the drop rate is increased for the old Varnimyr raids. I guess it’s due to new raid obviously. And amethystine colour change, nice- time for you to CHANGE TO CRIMSON, OKAY? So you can do the new raid, obviously.

    And nice about mystic stones. Evolving the weapon seems intruging.

  • some guy says:

    pokemon weapon

  • Dan Yami says:

    And there it is friends! A half a million CP jump! (Which is actually 3 million CP in disguise)

    • Tewi says:

      How come only non kr players cry about CP jumps all the time, its almost as if they just jump to complain about things.

      Back then you would have been able to enter the dungeon and get your ass kicked, then cry to devs that its “too hard”

      The CP requirement is even way too low, mostly because its a bad measurement for damage.

      • GameSubscriptionOnlyWhen says:

        Pretty nice summer update so far, they’re forcing everyone through to the cp needed and making raid easier now if u didn’t get it rosso by now for some reason.

        Tewi: This is because KR overall cp level is much higher vs every other server and as a result the cp increases for new dungeons don’t represent the player base of other servers most the time.

        (I’m not saying there’s not plenty of people with 1.5 mill cp but be realistic, most ppl don’t have this much; however I’d agree it’s mainly your own fault if u played a year or more and still don’t have at least the 1 mill cp by now.)

        I think this is due to the fact Koreans seemingly love/adore grind and do much more of it than any other server, it’s also cause of the constant KR only events. I especially feel for servers like INT or EU where the economy is either inflated to all hell or the server population so small u cant do raid/rigo dungeons half the time.

        Also Tewi confirmed KR player lol, cp requirement too low… nice
        Also i agree with the last part of your last sentence.
        Like iMaGin iF hAvInG eNtRy cP AkTuAlLy mEaNs YoU cAn cLeAr ThE dUnGeOn iN a rEaSoNaBle tImE

        • Qij says:

          Maybe someone can go on believing that the idea that you can get to 1 mil cp in one year and still have a life outside of this game is in any way reasonable.

          But instead of doing something stupid and absurd like that, I’m going to say this instead:

          That’s full of crap, anyone who thinks that is full of it as well, and the game devs need to rethink how they handle later dungeon progress and streamline gear upgrading.

          • GameSubscriptionOnlyWhen says:

            Qij:
            it actually isn’t that hard especially if u play consistently. I mean something like 1-3 hrs a day max for 1 year. It will take u about a week MAX to get to lvl 99 and third job your first time with this time frame. By the time you’re done with epic quest up to elrianode you’ll have around 150-200 mill ed (lets say this takes u another week). You should also be doing Secret dungeon/dimension dailies after third job.

            That’s enough to buy a proper elrianode set with 9% attack top, 9% boss dmg leg, 39% ASD glove, 9% boss dmg shoe, 2% crit dmg for each piece, and basic 2.5%/3% critical/max armor sockets.
            I bought all the tears for blue/red tears for 1 set each for alts to use on the event elrianode yesterday for under 150mill ed so ik for a fact this is possible. Buy some blessed enhance stones (10 stacks or so, it’s about 5mill ed if u buy stones for 1.5k each) and enhance your elrianode to +8.

            With that gear and your +9 SD you can clear add dung in about 3-4 mins.
            Complete the 50 run quest for your +9 amulet to get +9 void (by the time u do 50 runs, good chance u already have the weapon. even if u didn’t you’ll most certainly get it by 100 runs.) Getting +9 void will take u a max 5 hrs (100 runs) or so, assuming u play 2 hrs a day that’s about 3 days.

            Not even 3 weeks in you already have somewhat decent elrianode, a +9 void, and around 150-180k cp (you can use the ashal calutator without costume or any accessories if u want to test this). You can prob do all this in 1-2 weeks depending how dedicated you are.
            At this point u can start henir and drabaki.
            I’d recommend most to prioritize getting their resonance to lvl 100 so u can start making alts faster with experience el resonance points.

            I’d go further but im lazy so if you’d like more info I’d recommend to watch up on meteorfalcon F2P playthrough (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2MWPO3sKkg&list=PLFlBB7NHXMtRfPt5plLRoSjPKr4ER564M)

      • ignorance is a blessing says:

        maybe because KR server economy isn’t a mess when comparing to other server and the fact that kr server even bribe user with free +11 amulet after the reboot controversy.

        back then even with low gear if you git gud and still be able to clear a dungeon within a reasonable time frame.

        and yes you can’t one shot the enemy with your skill and for today standard that’s considered as too weak.

      • Dan Yami says:

        well by the time it comes out for EUsword I’ll maybe have around 2.5 million or somethin… am at 1.5 million right now, so I still have time :vvvv I just find it funny how it went from 1 to 1.5 so quickly lmao

      • LPLuntic says:

        Before you could play Elsword no matter how you played, 30minutes a day or a few hours. For people who don’t have much time for this game it’s become impossible to play the new dungeons. I personally would have enough time to keep up with the game, but I’m not gonna waste my time on the grinding for it. You should be able to play a game without having to treat it like a fulltime job. I do love playing this game, but spending all my time on it just to make a bit more damage…

        • GameSubscriptionOnlyWhen says:

          You’d have it point if u actually did need to treat it like a full time job or if you were forced to play more than 30 mins a day before or now.
          Btw did you actually play “before”? You know even 10+ years ago when everything was simpler it still took 3+ hours just to finish unlocking 1 skill cause the quest drops would never drop… Unlike now where u can get to lvl 99 in a few hrs, it took days before.

          The problem occurs when people without much time to play still expect or are mad when someone else that plays 3+ hrs a day progresses much faster than their self or is much stronger as a result. This is a korean mmorpg; people seemingly expect/wish for the non-commitment style game play from casual single match type games like fortnight and team fortress 2 on elsword where the game design is based oround the assumption you must grind a lot.

          Imagine u went to the gym everyday for 30 mins while someone else did 2 hrs everyday; you cant blame the gym or the other person for your lack of results resulting from your lack of dedication or grind.
          Don’t have time? Fine. It’ll just take u longer to see the same results and that is OK there is no rush.
          At the same time don’t be mad when takes you longer to be eligible to enter in the new dead lift contest cause you’re too weak while the other guy immediately can.

          Make sense?

  • Dede Dede Random says:

    this update better than synergy and el collection

    • Soren says:

      Eh? I don’t think so… El Collection and Synergy allow for account wide stat boosts which will increase the CP of the characters, so i think both are equally good on paper. In reality, despite the high ED costs I prefer the Collection/Synergy suff over a new dungeon that I can’t enter lol

      • Earlygame says:

        El Collection is very underwhelming though. Synergy is slightly better, but overall the costs of both of them are awful.

        Say whatever but NA didn’t have the KR ED issue so we shouldn’t get such weak rewards for something that costs a lot in comparison

  • kog sucks says:

    CP has killed this game

  • azurlane says:

    DEMON DEBUFF 80% WKWKWKWKWKWM

  • Jenova says:

    Lol new weapon. Im guessing most serious players are at about 5m CP so this shouldn’t be a problem.

    Elsword has become stale. Its all about endgame and seeing how far they can push said notion until it becomes unreachable. All the while reaping money from players constantly pumping it into the game to keep up.

    Sad, really. Oh well. Not my game. Not anymore.

  • Katja Eclair says:

    1.5 mil CP just to play like you’re at 300k

    KOG’s gone full retard with this region

  • He Lan says:

    Even if one day I’ll completely be dissapointed and stop playing it every day, I’ll at least do Henir once a week with my favorite characters just to have some fun

  • SadPepe says:

    1.5mil CP…. W H A T, what in god dam tarnation

  • azurlane says:

    1.5m cp, more player play like 300k-500k cp 🤣 sdg/heroic more popular dg🤣

  • Flare Kyn says:

    Huh, not seeing anything about the new weapon giving any kind of element resist/activation, let alone any specific elements.

  • BillyBob says:

    Kog went full retard mode on this region lol, 1.5m cp just to enter the dungeon yet is still gonna feel like you have like 300k cp lol As A player who has over 2m cp this was A stupid move, and give it A few months it’s gonna get nerf just like rosso did. Overall game became A heavy pve cash grab focused wise.

  • Qij says:

    Not 2 million cp? That’s a lot less deranged than what I was expecting.

    Still, I’ll wait for when they start doing 99% debuffs.

  • mastery says:

    it’s mean we can get a weap through evol quests or the weap has it’s own evol quests to make it much more powerful

  • MagicSpice says:

    Every time someone defends the CP requirements, KoG seems to spike the requirements and demon debuff like a retard.

    Don’t drink and drive.

    • MagicSpice says:

      But seriously, I’m just finding this more hilarious than anything else. It’s like people are fine with having to get so many +11’s and such to get exponentially higher CP requirements… then rinse and repeat when something new hits cause you just know you’ll need it within the next 1-3 regions.

      No joke, that’s just being a damn masochist.

      And before someone goes with the whole “you quit so why do you care?” message…. I gotta hit you with the “you’re playing so why don’t you care enough” question. Anyone with a brain can tell this level of progression is starting to head into “whales only” territory. But eh… more proof as to why you don’t blindly accept everything.

  • D says:

    Have yet to see anyone clear this raid.

  • Bry says:

    at this point, Varn is just whale territory…unless you got the time, patience and know-how, it’s near impossible to make any sort of progress after Elrianode as a casual (and even Elrianode, as well as Atlas Station and Elysion, can be a bit of a pain as well). KOG is getting money-grubbing yet at the same time desperate to win their players over, it’s pretty pathetic. you either dedicate yourself to the playerbase and make a fun experience, or you look out for yourselves and your wallet, you cant do both! maybe the Korean players dont have any problems w/ this, because they have the skills and potentially money to keep up, but theres also other servers w/ other non-Koreans that cannot keep up and for some ungodly reason NA and other servers (correct me if i’m wrong, but i know for a fact NA doesnt alter anything for the sake of NA players) follows KR’s patches to the letter and doesnt bother to listen to the playerbase! at this point, as much as it pains me to say it, they should just let this game fucking die. outside of KR, the other server playerbases are jumping ship faster than ppl jumped off the Titanic (i apologize for the morbid and somewhat inconsiderate/mean comparison, but at this point Elsword IS in fact the Titanic w/ its iceberg being KOG’s stupidity and greed)

    • Hatsushi says:

      If Elysion, Elrianode and Varnimyr in it’s current, nerfed-to-the-ground state is ‘whale territory’ for you then you’re either doing something wrong or the game’s just not for you.

      • MagicSpice says:

        Can’t say varn or even rigomor is whale territory… but this new area seems like it’ll be drifting that way.

        You have to do some insane grinding with nothing short of the varn raid weapon, rigomor set, and master class to hit the 1.5mil CP mark… and most players aren’t reaching that w/o +10 equipment….

        the game is heading to whale territory, but not before the rigomor portion. cause honestly, the demon realm debuff is sapping 4/5ths of your power unless you got a lot of adapt in your stats.and you likely need to feel like you have 3 mil CP to even have a reasonable shot at this new boss, meaning you’ll need a good 4 or 5 mil before adapt is factored in.

        i don’t get how some people are defending this, the power creep is going quite out of hand. it’s clear as day on that one.
