July 15, 2026 Update — Vakron Sky Island, Summer Festival & Class Balance

Broad class balance pass in KR/TW: a Common 'Shock Release' rework plus a flat 30% PvP-damage cut for every class and per-class tuning. Also: new 10-stack cooking recipes, Daevanion-crystal material conversion, the new Castle of the Fallen Deva conquest reward, battleground stat tweaks, returning 'Encore' skin/pet/wing collection and a large bug-fix batch.

  • Common stigma 'Shock Release' reworked — re-check your PvP stigmas
  • Flat -30% PvP damage for all classes (fundamentally changed PvP gearing priorities)
  • Daevanion crystals are now convertible materials — grind value rebalance
  • 10-stack cooking recipes cost Kinah up front but pay off in weekly quest runs
