Can somebody explain the element grinding part?

Weapon of the same category and rarity can now be used to element grind with a value of 1

Same weapon with different element (no element included) when used to element grind will have a value of 10 now

Same weapon with matching element when used to element grind will add the current value of material weapon's element to target weapon's elemental

Increased amount of synthesizer required to element grind to...um...idk :c

Is what they said...also you can pump a 30% ice jinrai to 50% jinrai with only 1 20% jinrai for example, idk

[Wisol]

That's awesome. I just hope we don't need a ridiculous amount of synthesizers to do a grind like that.

MAG Ownership Cap Increased

Spoiler!

MAGs can be used to effectively boost the stats of your character. Due to growing demand for more stat combinations, the number of MAGs you can have per character has been doubled from 10 to 20.

Note: To get a new MAG, you will have to purchase one with AC through the AC Shop. To do so, press Esc while in-game to bring up the Main Menu > Go to Arks Cash > AC Shop > AC Shop (Inventory/Storage). Please know that if a MAG Ticket is used it registers that particular MAG to the character, not the account. MAGs cannot be stored or switched between characters.
