Watcher Kalos

General Information

At the end of the Tower that Never Stops, Karotte, encounter the Watcher Kalos. Defeat the powerful Kalos and test your strength!

• Participants: Characters level 270 or higher who have completed the 5th job advancement and the ‘[Karotte] Watcher, Kalos’ quest.
• How to Participate: Karotte: Enter through the Skycraper’s Gate.

The Watcher Kalos has two phases. Phase 1 is level 275 with 330% defense and requires 250 Authentic Force. Phase 2 is level 280 with 380% defense and requires 300 Authentic Force.

There is currently one difficulty, Chaos Mode. Kalos can be entered 3 times per day and can be cleared 1 time per week.

Mechanics

Kalos has one main mechanic in both phase 1 and 2. It involves the special gauge, Kalos’ Will. Each player will have their own and it will fully charge up every 20 seconds. You can press NPC Chat to consume the gauge to aim and shoot a ball of energy.

On the minimap, you can see 3/4 different icons (the 4th one will only be visible when it activates). These represent the structures on the map. They will start off as blue but they will activate one-by-one (in a random order) and turn red when Kalos does a powerful attack. To deactivate them, you will need to hit them with the shots from from your gauge a certain number of times.

The first one is the Bombardment Drone at the top of the map. After it activates, it will begin move left and right, and every 15 seconds (25 seconds in phase 2), it will stop and fire a large purple laser. You will need to hit the drones on the top of the map [2x the number of party members] times to deactivate it.

The second is the Eye of Restraint on the left side of the map. After it activates, it will aim straight to the player and fire a laser every 15 seconds. If hit, you will be stunned for 3 seconds (5 seconds in phase 2). When phase 1’s HP drops below 50%, it will fire two lasers at once. You will need to hit the centre of the structure [3x the number of party members] times to deactivate it.

The third is the Eye of the Abyss on the right side of the map. After it activates, it will fire 3 arrows in a straight line to the player every 15 seconds. If hit, you will be inflicted with Darkness for 3 seconds (5 seconds in phase 2). When phase 1’s HP drops below 50%, it will fire 6  arrows at once. You will need to hit the centre of the structure [3x the number of party members] times to deactivate it.

The fourth is the Sphere of Odium on the bottom of the map. After it activates, it will bounce around the map, going from top to bottom in a zig-zag pattern. In phase 2, it will move faster. You will need to hit the bottom objects which will create a barrier for 2 seconds, and if the sphere touches the barrier, that will count as one hit. You must do so [2x the number of party members] times to deactivate it.

If all four structures are activated at the same time for one minute, you will instantly fail the boss and be kicked out.

Phase 1

Here are some of the phase 2 attacks.

Phase 2 also has segmented HP bars at 75%/50%/25%. At these segments, Kalos will be covered in a purple shield and if you break it successfully, pieces of his armor (shoulder wings, upper wings, armguards) will be removed and he will become groggy for a certain period of time. The removed wings will remain on the map and attack players.

Ethernel Equipment

The Ethernel equipment has been added. The items are level 250 and are untradeable upon being equipped (can be traded with the Platinum Karma Scissors).

The hat gives 80 main/sub stat, 10 attack/magic attack, and 15% defense ignore with 11 slots. The top/bottom give 50 main/sub stat, 6 attack/magic attack, and 5% defense ignore with 7 slots.

• Ethernel Knight Helm
• Ethernel Mage Hat
• Ethernel Archer Hat
• Ethernel Thief Bandana
• Ethernel Pirate Hat
• Ethernel Knight Armour
• Ethernel Mage Robe
• Ethernel Archer Hood
• Ethernel Thief Shirt
• Ethernel Pirate Coat
• Ethernel Knight Pants
• Ethernel Mage Pants
• Ethernel Archer Pants
• Ethernel Thief Pants
• Ethernel Pirate Pants

The Ethernel equipment can be obtained by defeating the Watcher Kalos, collecting 10 ‘Remains of Kalos’ Will’, and using them to choose one of the hat/top/bottom items.

The Ethernel set has the following set effects. In this update, the set consists of 4 pieces (weapon, hat, top, and bottom) and includes the Genesis Weapon.

• 2-Set: 2500 HP/MP, 40 attack/magic attack, 10% boss damage
• 3-Set: 50 all stats, 40 attack/magic attack, 600 defense, 10% boss damage
• 4-Set: 15% maximum HP/MP, 40 attack/magic attack, 10% boss damage

Developer Notes:

As mentioned in the DESTINY Live Talk, we have added the Ethernel equipment’s hat, top, and bottom which can be acquired from Kalos. In addition, to make the provision of the equipment faster than the cycle we talked about before, Kalos will drop the ‘Remains of Kalos’ Will’ at a 100% rate as individual rewards, and after you collect 10 of them, you can trade them in for one of the Ethernel hat/top/bottom items.

The set effects for the parts that can be acquired in this update have been added up to 4, and the set effects for 5 and more parts will be added when new pieces of the set are added.

Also, considering that when changing from the Root Abyss set to the Ethernel set, players could no longer receive the ‘10% maximum HP/MP’ from the 3-set effect of the Root Abyss set, we have moved the ‘15% maximum HP/MP’ stat from the previous 6-set effect of Ethernel to the 4-set effect.

Improvements

Skills

Developer Notes:

As mentioned in the previous Adventurer Remaster update, we have made additional numerical adjustments and structural/error fixes for most jobs based on the data we looked at after the update.

Certain remastered Adventurers’ skills became much more effective than we intended and we inevitably had to slightly nerf them. Since the range of changes was so big, we will continue to adjust the Adventurer jobs more quickly than other jobs for a while. We ask for your understanding.

For the remaining jobs, we made additional combat performance buffs and structural adjustments. The numerical changes were set to a maximum of around 10%.

As mentioned in previous Developer Notes, combat performance adjustment work will be carried out steadily and continuously with the adjustment range being set as conservatively as possible to prevent sudden changes.

We hope that these skill improvements will give players a more enjoyable combat experience than before, we will do our best to show a more complete look.

Hero

•  Weapon Acceleration: The STR boost has been increased from 10 to 20.

Paladin

•  Blessing Armor: The skill will no longer be affected by skill effect transparency.

Dark Knight

•  Reincarnation: The skill will no longer be affected by skill effect transparency while Reincarnation is active.
•  Beholder’s Revenge: The damage has been increased from 182% to 255%.
•  Dark Resonance: The boss damage boost has been increased from 10% to 15%.
•  Beholder Impact: The damage has been increased from 125% to 235% (at level 25).

Adventurer Magicians

•  Infinity: The skill will no longer be affected by skill effect transparency while Infinity is active.
•  Unstable Memorize: The cooldown has been decreased from 360 seconds to 355 seconds (at level 25). The rates and percentages of the cooldown reduction have been changed. When you use Unstable Memorize but fail to use the activated skill, Unstable Memorize’s cooldown will now be reset.
  • 1% chance of 20% reduction
  • 5% chance of 25% reduction -> 6% chance of 23% reduction
  • 10% chance of 30% reduction -> 6% chance of 24% reduction
  • 35% chance of 35% reduction -> 6% chance of 25% reduction
  • 15% chance of 40% reduction -> 10% chance of 27% reduction
  • 10% chance of 45% reduction -> 11% chance of 30% reduction
  • 5% chance of 50% reduction -> 12% chance of 33% reduction
  • 5% chance of 55% reduction -> 12% chance of 35% reduction
  • 5% chance of 60% reduction -> 12% chance of 38% reduction
  • 5% chance of 70% reduction -> 8% chance of 40% reduction
  • 3% chance of 75% reduction -> 6% chance of 45% reduction
  • 1% chance of 80% reduction -> 5% chance of 50% reduction
  • 2% chance of 55% reduction
  • 2% chance of 60% reduction
  • 1% chance of 65% reduction
•  Memory Choice: When Memory Choice is activated and you use the number keys to select a skill, continuous input of the number keys will now be ignored for a short period of time.

Developer Notes:

In the previous Adventurer Remaster update, Unstable Memorize was changed to activate a fixed skill and have its cooldown decreased based on a certain rate. This was done to remove the negative experiences when an unwanted skill was selected, and to improve the structural problem where you had to input the skill frequently even in complex combat situations.

We achieved our goals above through the structural changes. However, in this process, the difficulty of maintaining Infinity became much lower than before, and as a result, Adventurer magicians’ overall combat performance became excessively higher than we intended.

Therefore, in this update, we have slightly lowered Unstable Memorize’s performance. We ask for your understanding.

Separately, since Unstable Memorize’s cooldown became longer and the risk of skill failure increased, we have added a feature to Unstable Memorize that resets its cooldown if it is failed to be used due to things like attacks from boss monsters, to improve the experience of using the skill.

Since the range of changes in the previous Remaster update wa very big, we will continue to monitor for a while and continuously make changes to ensure proper combat performance.

Archmage (F/P)

•  Megiddo Flame: The skill has been changed so that the monster with the highest maximum HP is prioritized only when it is a boss monster. Monsters that are invincible or cannot be hit will no longer be tracked.
•  DoT Punisher: Monsters that are invincible or cannot be hit will no longer be tracked.

Archmage (I/L)

•  Chain Lightning: When Chain Lightning hits an enemy, the delay for the damage skin being outputted has been changed to be faster.
•  Ice Aura: The sound effect while Ice Aura is active has been removed.

Bishop

•  Holy Fountain: This skill will no longer be affected by your own and other characters’ skill effect transparency. The duration will now be displayed as a buff icon.
•  Fountain for Angels: The duration will now be displayed as a buff icon.
•  Angel Ray: Fixed an issue where Angel Ray could hit certain monsters that could not be hit by attacking skills.
•  Big Bang: This skill now deals 50% increased damage on regular monsters.
•  Holy Blood: The skill description has been changed to be more accurate. After this skill is used, it can no longer be cancelled for 1 second even if the skill is re-used.

Bowmaster

• The 2nd job skills’ UI display order has been changed.

Marksman

• The skill descriptions have beenc hanged to be more accurate overall.
•  Sniping: The damage has been increased from 465% to 480%.
•  Enhanced Sniping: The damage has been increased from 510% to 535%. The damage of the additional hit activated when Sniping hits a marked enemy has been increased from 250% to 320%. The additional hit will now be affected by Additional Bolt and Sniping – Bonus Attack.
•  Repeating Crossbow Cartridge: Full Burst Shot will now prioritize hitting the boss monster with the highest maximum HP if there is a boss monster within range. Full Burst Shot’s firing location has been slightly changed. Full Burst Shot’s damage has been increased from 600% to 750% (at level 25).

Pathfinder

•  Ancient Bow Booster has been changed to Ancient Bow Acceleration. The DEX boost has been increased from 10 to 20.

Night Lord

•  Shadow Leap: The distance moved when used on the ground has been decreased.
•  Triple Throw/Quadruple Throw: The skill descriptions have been changed to be more accurate.

Developer Notes:

In the previous Adventurer Remaster, we added the up-jump skill Shadow Leap to Night Lords.

For Night Lords, they had Shadow Web for upwards mobility and it could be linked with Flash Jump after it was used. To keep this experience, we made it so that Shadow Leap could also be linked with Flash Jump.

However, in the process of adding Shadow Leap, the upwards movement distance was significantly higher than before, and with the addition of being able to link it with Flash Jump, their mobility increased excessively when compared to before the Remaster.

Therefore, we would like to adjust their mobility by slightly decreasing the upwards movement distance while maintaining the characteristic of being able to link it with Flash Jump.

Shadower

•  Cruel Stab: The lower range has been increased by about 27%.
•  Meso Explosion – Enhance: The skill description has been changed to be more accurate.

Dual Blade

• The 2nd job skills’ UI display order has been changed.

•  Howling Fist: The punch’s number of hits has been increased from 10 to 14.

Captain

• The 2nd job skills’ UI display order has been changed.
•  Assemble Crew: The skill description has been changed to be more accurate.
•  Headshot: The damage has been decreased from 1185% to 980%.
•  Pirate Style: The stance boost has been changed to a passive effect. The reduced evasion rate will now be displayed more accurately.
•  Bullet Party: The damage has been increased from 455% to 500% (at level 25).

Developer Notes:

In the previous Adventurer Remaster, we tried to increase Captain’s combat stability in more recent dynamic boss battles by reducing the dependency and uncertainty of summons and increasing the damage of their own skills. Various changes were made in line with this goal, and among them, Headshot’s damage was significantly increased.

As a result, using Headshot unintentionally became more effective than using 5th job skills and Captain’s combat performance also increased excessively higher than we intended.

Therefore, in this update, we have made some adjustments to Headshot and Bullet Party’s damage. We apologize for not taking a closer look at the changes in combat performance beforehand.

Cannon Shooter

• The 2nd job skills’ UI display order has been changed.
•  Mini Cannonball: The damage has been increased from 180% to 360%.

Luminous

•  Morning Starfall: This skill now passively increases damage to boss monsters by 15%.
•  Magic Mastery: The critical damage boost has been increased from 15% to 18%.

Blaster

•  Revolving Cannon Upgrade III: Release Pile Bunker’s damage boost has been increased from 120%p to 160%p.

Quests

The ‘Stone Colossus Rescue Operation 4’ quest’s guided location has been changed to be more accurate.

It has been improved so that you must input the “I want to buy” message in the ‘[Ramuramu] Dawn’s Guardian Angel Ring’ quest to buy the Guardian Angel RIng Set Conversion Scroll.

Items

You can now drop the Adventurer’s Book.

Text has been added to the Tenebris Expedition Ring and Awake Ring that state only special scrolls can be used on them.

You can no longer craft, combine, or disassemble items while trade restricted.

Fixed an issue where the Highness Warrior Helm item looked awkward from behind the character.

It has been improved so that when you have a two-handed weapon and certain other game weapons equipped, you can now choose to change your Cash weapon’s motions to the one-handed weapon motions. The option is at the bottom left of the equipment window > Cash tab. You can also preview Cash weapons’ one-handed weapon motions in the Cash Shop’s preview window.

• Affected Game Weapons: Two-handed sword, two-handed axe, two-handed blunt weapon, spear, polearm, crossbow, gun.
• Affected Cash Weapons: Cash weapons that can be equipped over all weapons, Cash weapons that can also be equipped over one-handed swords (e.g. Singing Violin).
• Actions that Apply One-Handed Weapon Motions: Standing, walking, jumping, taking a breath.

Developer Notes:

Since Cash weapons can already be equipped over various game weapons, it is possible to provide the option to view one-handed weapon motions for them.

Cash weapons include all sold Cash weapons as well as those given through events such as the Fairy Wonky’s Glowing Leaf. You can choose the one-handed weapon view option if you have a two-handed sword, two-handed axe, two-handed blunt weapon, spear, polearm, crossbow, or gun equipped with a Cash weapon that can be equipped over all weapons or on one-handed swords.

We tried to implement the requests from players who wanted their weapons to not cover their characters as much as possible, but we ask for your understanding that it would be difficult to apply a full conversion to one-handed weapon motions as the game weapons are currently only able to operate with set motions.

Zero

• Fixed an error where Zero’s Critical Bind’s bind effect duration did not apply correctly in certain situations. The skill description has been changed to be more accurate.

Developer Notes:

In the January 27 update, we changed it so that if Critical Bind was used on an enemy that was already bound, Critical Bind’s bind effect would be added to the existing bind effect and be applied.

However, in the last update notice, there wasn’t enough detail for our improvement work so it was confusing to understand if the maximum time would be guaranteed when using Critical Bind.

First of all, there is a condition that Critical Bind’s bind effect is applied only when the remaining duration of the regular bind is less than 2 seconds (half of Critical Bind’s bind duration). Critical Bind is usually used after mainitaining other bind effects for as long as possible to maximize its effectiveness, so this condition did not have a significant effect.

In the January 27 update, while maintaining the above condition, we changed it so that if the remaining bind effect was shorter than 2 seconds, then Critical Bind would be applied with a duration of 4 seconds no matter when it was used.

For example, if a normal bind effect with a duration of 10 seconds was applied and Critical Bind was used after 9 seconds passed, previously the original effect was 9 seconds plus Critical Bind’s effect of 4 seconds for a total bind of only 13 seconds. After the change, after the full 10 second duration, Critical Bind’s effect of 4 seconds would be added for a total bind of 14 seconds.

However, during this change, we discovered an additional error and fixed it where if Critical Bind was used when the remaining bind duration was exactly 2 seconds, it would not add those 2 extra seconds.

We sincerely apologize for not being able to fully explain these details, and we have also changed the skill description to be more accurate.

KMS ver. 1.2.361 (2)

Error Fixes

Bowmaster’s Arrow Blow will now only count as 1 hit when used for the number of attacks required to activate Flash Mirage.

Developer Notes:

In this update, after fixing the error where Flash Mirage did not pierce through enemies, a situation arose where it was more effective to use the 1st job skill Arrow Blow to activate Flash Mirage more frequently. Since this was not an intended change in the play pattern, Arrow Blow has been changed to only count as 1 hit per use for the number of attacks required to activate Flash Mirage.

We sincerely apologize for this unintentional change in the skill usage experience and we will take a closer look at any changes that may occur due to error fixes in the future.

Fixed an error in the Giant Root map where you could not use the Boss Move, Maple Union UI, or teleport related features.

Developer Notes:
