icon	Item name
	Blackstar shoes

• ‘Maximum HP +100’ effect has been added to 4 sets of blackstar gear.

 

• Blackstar shoes production quest has been added.
  • You can only proceed once per character to make Blackstar Shoes.
  • In order to start the blackstar shoe quest, you need the knowledge of ‘Remnants of the Rift” and the knowledge of “The Three Legendary Blacksmiths of Mediah”. “Specter’s Energy,” a special material you will need, which can be obtained at a low chance from all over the world and at a higher rate from Thornwood Forest Monster Zone.
  • Remnants of the Rift drops at a low chance from Dark Rift bosses.
  • The knowledge of “The Three Legendary Blacksmiths of Mediah” can be obtained by completing “The Three Blacksmiths” quest from Tulem. This is a quest that can be received after completing the reworked Mediah Main quests with a character of Lv. 56 or higher. For adventurers who have already completed the quest, the knowledge can be obtained by interacting with Tulem.
  • The quest splits in the middle. Experienced adventurers can choose to battle powerful bosses right away, and less experienced adventurers can complete quest by fighting weakened bosses.

 

• The improved formula of blackstar gear has been added.
  • Each piece of gear (helmet, armor, gloves, shoes) can be improved once to bring out the performance of Blackstar.
  • A very rare and special item called ‘Black Specter’s Energy’ is required to improve Blackstar gear.
  • Black Specter’s Energy can be obtained from the hunting grounds encroached by Hadum, and can be completed by adding several rare materials to it. Because it is a very special material, the manufacturing process is difficult, only you can create it and the Central Market does not accept it.
  • There is no failure to upgrade, and the upgrade can be done at any enhancement level. The modifications, engraved status, and durability that have already been applied are maintained.
  • Improved Blackstar Gear can still be enhanced at any time. The enhancement chance and the required number of Cron Stones are the same as those of regular Blackstar Gear, and you can also receive the set effect of Blackstar Gear.
  • Improved Blackstar Gear has a higher performance than normal Blackstar Gear.
  • ※ However, at PEN (V), it has the same effect as normal Blackstar Gear.
