🛠️Maintenance Notice
As part of this week’s maintenance, we’ll be performing additional server upkeep and updates. To apply these changes, all servers will be taken offline on Dec 17 at 9:00 AM PT (5:00 PM UTC). Estimated downtime is approximately 1 hour.

Following this maintenance, the weekly Umbral Crystal limit will be increased to 10,000. Please note: the Inventory UI will continue to display a maximum of 5,000 Umbral Crystals, but players will be able to earn and hold up to 10,000 as expected.
