Summoners War: Chronicles

Hello, this is Summoners War: Chronicles PD Sang-min Choi.

First, I would like to sincerely apologize for not being able to meet the previously promised update schedule.

In the last developer’s note, we mentioned that a comprehensive revamp of Raid content and the equipment system was scheduled for Jun. 26.

However, due to the interconnection of many related systems and content during development, this update is now expected to be delayed by approximately two weeks and will likely be applied around Jul. 10.

We will do our utmost to deliver a stable and high-quality update.

Alongside the Jun. 26 update, we’d like to share the upcoming content additions and system improvements planned throughout July.

[Summoner/Monster/Constellation Balance Adjustments]

The following Summoners, Monsters, and Runes will have balance adjustments applied:

- Summoner

  · Soleta

- Monster

  · Fire Nine-tailed Fox

  · Water Nine-tailed Fox, Undine

  · Wind Nine-tailed Fox, Jack-o'-lantern

  · Dark Harg

- Rune

  · Scorn Rune: A discrepancy between the displayed and actual values will be corrected, as previously announced.

[Feature/QoL Improvements]

Two Onmyouji-themed decorations (Lantern and Fox Kite) will be added to Mystic Island.

A new Monster Story will be added to Joshua's Bookshelf.

Guild Daily Request Rewards will be increased.

Summoner and Monster info will now be public by default to guild members and friends, regardless of settings.

[Upcoming Updates]

On July 3, the White Night Rate UP Summon for Light Dragon and Dark Nine-tailed Fox will be opened, along with a Dragon Exclusive Artifact Rate UP Summon.

On July 10, the update will introduce overhauls to the Raid content and equipment system.

Elite/Hero/Mythic Raids will be integrated into a single seasonal raid map format, and all raids will shift from 3-Summoner to 2-Summoner parties.

By clearing raids, you can acquire the newly added Mythic 6★ Awakening Lv. 6 season equipment and the new Ancient season equipment.

The newly added season equipment will apply the new Season Effect system, and items to enhance season effects can be obtained through raid clears.

The Season Effect system is bound to the season system and applies per equipment slot; effects are reset after the season ends.

There are approximately 14 types of Season Effect properties that apply to PvE combat, and Season Combat Power varies depending on effects.

- Season Effect Properties

  · DMG Dealt UP to Boss Monsters

  · DMG Taken DOWN from Boss Monsters

  · PvE Ultimate Gauge Acquisition UP

  · PvE ATK SPD UP

* Additional properties will be announced in future update notes.

Existing Mythic 6★ Awakening Lv. 0 equipment can be succeeded to the new Mythic 6★ Awakening Lv. 6 season equipment.

Shiny effects will be added to the new Ancient accessories.

Season Raid Coins will be obtainable through content outside of raids, making it easier to obtain season equipment.

Additionally, a feature to reroll sub property values while keeping their types will be added when reforging equipment.

To help reduce the growth gap between new and existing Summoners, and to improve understanding and adaptation to overall game content, a new feature called "Path of Challenge" will be added.

Through Path of Challenge, difficulties in Monster acquisition, growth materials, and item collection will be significantly improved, allowing players to enjoy the game more easily and quickly.

The Nine-tailed Fox Exclusive Artifact will be added on Jul. 17, along with a Nine-tailed Fox Rate UP Summon.

The Challenge Arena (World) Season starting on Jul. 21 will proceed as follows:

- Map: Flurence

- Applied Buffs

  · Water/Light Monsters' Monster DMG UP

  · Water/Light Monsters' Monster ACC UP

- Environment Effect: Show

  · Destroys the HP of all Monsters each sec in combat.

  · Grants the Endure effect once per battle when a Monster receives fatal damage.

The Guild Siege Battle starting on Jul. 24 will be changed to a map where defensive strategy becomes more important.

[Jul. App Update Preview]

As previously mentioned in the last developer's note, we will be addressing the balance gap in the Artifact acquisition/disassembly process and the issue where fully enhanced (+15) Artifacts have reduced utility.

Additionally, one new Constellation will be added per class, and some Arena Pass benefits will be adjusted.

Before we sign off, we would like to thank you for your valuable feedback and support.

We will continue to do our best to provide an enjoyable Chronicles experience.

Thank you.
