February 2023 Update Notes

30 Jan 2023

Hello.

This is BraveNine Story team.

 

It feels like we celebrated the New Year a few days ago, but a month has already passed.

Waiting for the spring to come, we are very pleased to announce the Update scheduled for the 3rd week of February.

 

 

1. New Captains’ 7-Day Mission

- Limited-time missions will be added in which all new captains can participate for 7 days after creating the account.

- You can check the mission from the banner on the left side of the main lobby.

- Existing captains can participate in the event and earn rewards, just like new captains.

- The mission tab is unlocked every day over 7 days, and clear missions and claim individual rewards.

- Collect mission points by clearing missions to claim interim rewards.

- You can receive [Angelica Soul Stone x100] as the final reward and recruit the mercenary right away.

- You cannot check or claim rewards after 7 days from the start of the mission, as the mission automatically ends after 7 days.


2. Valentine's Check-in Reward (Reward per log-in time)

In celebration of Valentine's Day, a chocolate box will be added in the lobby. You can obtain gifts every day after a certain amount of time passes based on the first check-in time.

- Rewards are renewed every day at 00:00 (KST), and you can claim rewards at certain times every day. The event will continue until the next maintenance.


  • Rewards per log-in time


3. Valentine’s Costume Update

"Hmm, I can't tell you who I'll be meeting."


3) Valentine’s Glacia

“Didn’t you know that? Only cats can melt my heart!”



4. Costume Package

- You can now choose to purchase costumes as a package or as a single item.

- The Costume Package includes items such as Diamonds and Soul Stones.

- Once you purchase the single item, you cannot purchase the package products because you already have the costume, so please be aware of this before buying the product. (Costumes you already own cannot be purchased as a package product.)


5. Valentine's Check-in Event

In celebration of Valentine's Day, the Check-in Event where you can acquire Costumes and Soul Stones will be held.

If you log in every day during the event period, you can obtain the ‘Valentine’s Bathory’ Costume and [Bathory] Soul Stone.


6. New Sweeping Rewards

Slime and gifts that can be obtained only through sweeping will be added so that you can earn mercenary EXP and Sincerity EXP when you sweep stages.

- You can only get the sweep-only rewards through sweeping stages, and you cannot sell those rewards.

- In the case of sweep-only Slime rewards, gold is not consumed for use.


7. Added Soul Stone Acquisition Route (Adventure Book > Very Hard)

- Some mercenary Soul Stones can be acquired from Very Hard mode in the Adventure Book. (Excluding Captain, and Six Devils)

- Soul Stone drop area (Adventure Book > Very Hard)

- Tap on the Mercenary’s Soul Stone to move directly to the drop area.


8. Renewal and permanent opening of Substory ‘That Time I Got Reassigned as a Slime Slayer’

- The 30-day event Substory after creating the account has been changed to a permanent Substory and this allows you to continue farming slime.

- All modes will be opened even after 30 days of the event.

- The slime drop rate has been raised to enhance the permanent farming function of the Substory.


9. Permanent Crafting Cost Discounts

- To alleviate the burden of crafting gears for captains, we have decided to offer permanent discounts on crafting costs. The currently applied crafting cost will be maintained even after the update.
