Hello, nice to meet you!
My name is Gori and I am newly appointed as a staff member, along with comp.

I will be working on the Japanese localization of the official documentation and handling announcements in Japanese.
I would also be happy to answer any other questions or requests from Japanese players, so please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

Of course, I'd also like to be a bridge between Japanese and other language speakers, so please feel free to contact me when you see me in-game:wacko:
I'm sure there are many things I haven't done right, but I'd like to thank you for your patience.

Seasons Shop is open again! (along with some fixes)

Hi all,

I'd like to announce that the Seasons Shop is open again!

Shortly after the Seasons Shop was opened after our first Seasons Event, we had to close it due to some errors with some items.

We've finally combed through the items we made, fixed various ones and removed some others due to incompatibilities. Find below the list of changes that have been made:

Hearts

There are 6 Heart items, all of them skin a particular set of weapons into the named Heart. They are:

  • Heart of Daisy Chain
  • Heart of Crazy Tune - Temporarily removed, see below.
  • Heart of Rianov 303SNR
  • Heart of Yasminkov 9000M
  • Heart of Rabbit Wand
  • Heart of Sorcerer's Cane - Temporarily removed, see below.

[spoiler=Combination List]Heart of Daisy Chain

  • Chain Sawd - This combination has been permanently removed from Heart of Daisy Chain.
  • Red Sword
  • Zanba
  • Flowen's Sword (3084)
  • Dark Flow
  • Tsumikiri J-Sword

Heart of Rianov 303SNR

  • Frozen Shooter
  • Bringer's Rifle
  • Spread Needle

Heart of Yasminkov 9000M

  • M&A60 Vise
  • Guld Milla - This combination has been permanently removed from Heart of Yasminkov 9000M.
  • Dual Bird - This combination has been permanently removed from Heart of Yasminkov 9000M.
  • Mille Marteaux

Heart of Rabbit Wand

  • Glide Divine
  • Psycho Wand - This combination has been permanently removed from Heart of Rabbit Wand.
  • Striker of Chao - This combination has been permanently removed from Heart of Rabbit Wand.

[/spoiler]

Mag Cells

The 4 kits now have full functionality as intended! They are:

  • Mag Kit
  • Varuna Kit
  • Kalki Kit
  • Vritra Kit

They will turn any non-rare 50+ into the named mag, with triple invincibility triggers at 50% rate, no sync boosts.

Regarding Heart of Crazy Tune

Heart of Crazy Tune works fine with its combinations, however the combination with Dark Flow has significant issues.

However, there were players looking to get this, so we are holding a poll here to ask you if Dark Flow* as Crazy Tune should come back. Regardless of the outcome, this Heart will come back, but perhaps not with Dark Flow as an option.

Regarding Heart of Sorcerer's Cane

Heart of Sorcerer's Cane also works fine with its combinations, however it will never work as intended and outstretch properly.

Therefore, we are asking you once again if you'd like to see it return here.

Please note that these items will be coming back in future events, stay tuned for more...

That's all for now, please report any issues.

We hope you enjoy playing on Ephinea!

Unplanned server downtime, 28 July 2021

Ephinea went down for about an hour from 11:45 PM GMT to 12:45 AM GMT. We're looking into the cause and we'll update here when we know more.

Apologies for the inconvenience!
