■There is an issue in the main quest “???” where controls may become unresponsive if the NPC “Ryne” located in The Flounders' Floor is spoken to repeatedly, so we have taken temporary measures to address the issue.

*Because it will require some time to fix this issue completely, as a temporary measure, we have made it so that if no inputs are made for 20 seconds after speaking with the NPC “Ryne”, the conversation with the NPC will be forcefully canceled.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but if users find themselves affected by this issue, the game will return to its normal state by waiting for 20 seconds.

■A temporary measure has been implemented for the the description and effect issue of Bozjan earring.

The effect "Increases EXP earned by 10% when level 80 and below" is now activated, so characters will be able to obtain increased EXP with Bozjan earring equipped.

However, the description will remain as "Increases EXP earned by 30% when level 80 and below" as this correction would require a client update. We will provide more details on a future date.

・The effect "Attributes and item level vary according to class/job and current level when equipped" on Bozjan earring did not activate.
・The description for Bozjan earring was "Increases EXP earned by 30% when level 80 and below."
* The correct description should be "Increases EXP earned by 10% when level 80 and below." The effect "Increases EXP earned by 10% when level 80 and below" was fixed in a HotFix performed on Oct. 15, 2020.

■In Bozjan Southern Front, countermeasures have been implemented for the issue where the monster Feathered Rainbow in Skirmish "Waste the Rainbow" moves out of the battle area, causing the skirmish unable to proceed.
