Stellar Union Arrives in Version 1.8.1
Veil of Memories introduces Stellar Union, a seasonal progression system built around Guild activities. Resources earned from participating in those activities are used to unlock seasonal buffs and stat increases.
Stellar Union progression belongs to each individual player. Moving to another Guild does not erase the progress already made, although the system resets when the season ends.
The combat bonuses are limited to Guild-related activities. They do not increase performance in AFK Stages, Dream Realm, Arena or other content outside the Guild systems.
- Stellar Union upgrades can reduce Stamina costs in applicable Guild content.
- Some upgrades can increase the number of raid attempts available in Clashfronts.
- The weekly Guild Medal cap is increased.
- Additional Guild Chests become available through the seasonal progression.
Bounty Contract Adds Cooperative Guild Hunts
Bounty Contract arrives in Version 1.8.1 as a cooperative Guild mode. One member can post a bounty and other Guild members can join it without everyone needing to remain online at the same time.
Players can participate in multiple bounties. Posting uses tickets that regenerate over time, while joining other members' bounties has a daily participation limit. Stellar Union progression can improve the ticket cap and regeneration rate.
Both the member posting a bounty and members joining it receive rewards. More difficult targets provide better rewards.
Union Campaign Adds Stage Progression
Union Campaign is another new Guild activity tied to Stellar Union. Guild members progress through stages containing increasingly difficult enemy waves.
Stages provide first-clear rewards and can later be swept each day. The mode is also a primary source of materials used to develop Stellar Union.
A daily Reinforcement option helps players who are behind the Guild's leading progress. It allows a player to borrow a hero from a Guild member who has already cleared the stage. Members who advance farther can also unlock combat bonuses that help other Guild members catch up.
AFK League Follows in Version 1.8.2
Version 1.8.2 adds AFK League, a competitive mode based on preset teams and automatic daily matches. Players are matched against opponents at a similar level and can review results, replays and formations afterward.
League rounds include battlefield conditions that alter how teams perform. Battle reports also provide information such as hero usage, win rates and successful formations. Rankings can drop by one tier between rounds.
Clashfronts is also returning, and the previous participant limit is being removed so more Guild members can take part.
Veil of Memories Expands the Season Story
The Veil of Memories story begins with a death and a search connected to Dura. The journey leads through Bantus and then to Novaris, a city associated with the Graveborn and the late opera star Senea.
During the new exploration content, the protagonist takes on a Graveborn form and loses access to most normal magic. The Ferryman's Lantern becomes an important exploration tool for interacting with death-energy remnants spread across the season's areas.
These remnants appear through fixed discoveries, timed interactions, monsters and other exploration activities. Collecting them contributes to Wandering Echoes, a long-term seasonal collection with milestone rewards and no time limit for completing the collection.
