[Miscellaneous Improvements and Bug Fixes]

Improvements

• Character optimization display options have been subdivided. The settings for displaying Rank Icons on Nameplates and displaying Identical Player Appearance for other players can now be configured separately for the Field, Abyss, and Spacetime Rift Domination.
• You can configure this at [Settings] > [Graphics] > [Optimize] > [Character Info Display] > [Display as Rank Icon].
• You can configure this at [Settings] > [Graphics] > [Optimize] > [Character Info Display] > [Display as Identical Player Appearance for Other Players].
• The maximum amount of Arcana that can be owned and the extraction options have been changed. The maximum amount of Arcana that can be owned changes from 1,100 to 500. If you exceed the maximum amount, you must Extract the excess amount.
• A new Arcana extraction option, "Superior Training Arcana (Bound)," is added.
• "Mysterious Crystal (Bound)" can no longer be obtained through Arcana extraction. Existing accumulated progress will be removed, and "Mysterious Crystal (Bound)" will be granted later depending on whether you had progress.
• The Bulk Use amount for "Pet Chests (Bound)" is increased.

Fixes

• In Verteron's Dawn Legion Base and Zumion Village, Empyrean Trace items that were in inaccessible positions because of Halloween decorations have been moved to accessible positions.
• Fixed an issue where the Movement Controls category was displayed twice in [Settings] > [Key Settings].
• Fixed an issue where a Judgment Fire Temple Dungeon run was occasionally counted as a failure when the boss was defeated at the same time as the Dungeon expired.
• Fixed an issue where the screen was displayed abnormally when using Multi-Window on some Fold devices.
• During the exclusive idle animation for Halloween Weapon Skins, changing the Weapon Skin now interrupts the animation.
• The "Transfer Stone Fragment (Unique) (Bound)" and "Transfer Stone Fragment (Heroic) (Bound)" Items obtainable from the Season Shop, Expedition Trade Shop, Growth Support, and Achievements have been replaced with "Transfer Flame (Unique) (Bound)" and "Transfer Flame (Heroic) (Bound)" Items.

Item Retrieval and Restoration

• Following the addition of a Substance Morph recipe for the "Artwork Remnant" Item obtainable from Expedition and Transcendence on October 7, 2026, "Artwork Remnant" Items will be retroactively granted to each character's Cube based on pre-update gameplay records for items that were deleted, sold, or restored. If an Item was sold, "Silentium (Bound)" will be retrieved based on the sale amount.

We will continue working to provide better service.

Thank you.
