Overview

  • The latest weekly patch transforms the base Sentient Pest fight into an Everdark Sovereign encounter featuring a three-phase battle.
  • In the new third phase Animus, Ascendant Light bursts forth to revive the moth and scorpion with enhanced movesets and repeated resurrection mechanics.
  • Community feedback is split as some players applaud the added spectacle while others find the fight still manageable thanks to evolved skills and meta builds.
  • Defeating the Everdark Sovereign Sentient Pest unlocks a Relic that boosts maximum FP, restores FP on successive attacks and grants permanent FP increases with Sorcerer’s Rise.
  • An in-game UI enhancement now clearly displays weapon types when examining items to improve gear management and reduce confusion.
