What’s New in Season 12?
What is the Deep Dungeon introduced in Season 12?
The Deep Dungeon is a multi-floor dungeon map first introduced in Season 12 Part 2. It features progressively stronger monsters on each floor and provides high experience and valuable item drops for well-geared characters. The dungeon was significantly renewed in Season 21 Part 1-1 with restructured layouts, updated monster distribution, and improved drop tables to reflect the expanded endgame of Season 21.
What is the 4th Class Change Quest in Season 12?
The 4th Class Change Quest introduced in Season 12 Part 2 allows characters that have completed the 3rd Class Change to evolve into their most powerful form. Each class has a unique 4th-class designation with access to additional Master Skill Tree nodes and higher stat caps. The quest requires specific item materials and character level thresholds that scale with the season's level cap at the time of introduction.
What are Mastery Weapons and Armor in Season 12?
Mastery Weapons and Armor are high-tier equipment introduced in Season 12, with 2nd Mastery Weapons and 3rd Mastery Armor appearing in Part 1-1. Each subsequent season has added higher mastery tiers — by Season 21 the system includes up to 9th Mastery Earrings and equivalent weapon and armor tiers. Mastery equipment provides significantly stronger stats than standard ancient or socket items and requires advanced crafting materials.
