The second Cygnus Knights reorganization, for the Wind Breaker class (Wind Archer in GMS) has been released! The skills look really good… but I can’t help but feel shafted as a Bowmaster when I look at all of them… hopefully we get an Adventurer update soon.

Wind Breakers have been reorganized in the same way as Strikers before them. They have received a Link Skill, they can reach level 250, and their job advancements are at the same level as everyone else now (10, 30, 60, 100).

They receive 4 SP when advancing (except for 4th where they get 3). Knights of Cygnus do not require mastery books for their fourth job skills. The Noble Mind skill which increased the level of Empress’ Blessing has been changed to be levelled up when you reach level 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, and 150.

Thanks to Fiel of Southperry for skill effects and animations!

The expansion to the Door to the Future has been revealed! “The village of warriors, Perion… I wish we could return to those peaceful days…” says Ayan (currently the NPCs have not had their images updated to be older). There were also monsters such as Transformed Stumps, Boars, Masks, Golems, and Stumpy in the data.

The Twilight of Perion will be added! Enter the Door to the Future and find Perion in the future, dominated by the Black Mage. A giant statue of the Black Mage is being built in the destroyed town of Perion, save the indigenous people who are being forced to work on it! This place is a level 190 to 195 area.

Three new pets, all based on the mascot of Veritas from the Xenon storyline, Luti, have been released~ I think their colours can also be changed using a dye coupon.

Oh yeah, remember to watch Community tonight!
