- You can now retry while the dungeon is in progress — except while in combat.
- Sync Stone Fragment (Heroic) (Bound) (Heroic) (Bound) obtained from the Odyle Energy Cube increased from 1 → 2.
Inheritance Crafting
- Inheritance Crafting now only accepts equipment Bound to the crafting character as inheritance material.
Titles
- Designed titles (with visual styling) added.
- Designed titles can be previewed in the Equipment Status and Title Info tabs.
- When equipped, the design shows on your nameplate and in the HUD system menu character info.
- You can see designed titles equipped by other characters in their info window.
- Toggle nameplate title-design effects under Settings → Graphics → Camera/Effects → Other Effects.
Customizing
- Color lighting added to customizing light types, and light position can be moved — letting you check your character under varied lighting.
Item Recovery
- New recovery targets added:
- Items extracted by mistake.
- Items consumed in Soul Binding by mistake (Sync Stone Fragment (Heroic) (Bound)s included).
- Extracted items and Soul-Binding-consumed items can each be recovered once per year.
- Extraction recovery is limited to Unique grade or higher — items below Unique do not appear in the recovery list.
- When recovering an extracted item, enhancement stones and Abyss Points gained from the extraction are reclaimed; Kina spent on extraction is returned as Kina (Bound).
- Appearances obtained from extraction are not reclaimed, and appearance collection effects are kept.
- Recovering an item consumed as Soul Binding material does not change the stats already applied to the tuned item.
Material Conversion
- New design added: Daevanion Crystal: Yustiel (Bound) → Daevanion Crystal: Marchutan (Bound).
