In the MMORPG ASTA the first content patch is already available, even though the game is still officially in beta.
New Difficulty Level for Raids in ASTA
Technically, the “Korean World of Warcraft,” ASTA, is not yet out of its beta phase, but that seems to be just a formality. The game received its first content update on April 18, which mainly brought new difficulty modes and a fresh PvP arena map.
The biggest change is the introduction of a “very hard” mode for the existing raid instances, which can be completed once a day. In general, the bosses have become stronger and use better abilities, and they use them more frequently.
In addition, there is a new arena, the “Ora Fortress Underground Arena,” where players can engage in classic 5vs5 combat. Furthermore, players can now also participate in intra-faction battlegrounds, allowing them to fight with their own faction.
Aside from that, there were also some nerfs to the Mage. The Mage was too strong with certain spells, or could heal himself too effectively. You can find a complete list of the patch notes in our sources.
In the coming weeks, the team aims to focus on fine-tuning the existing systems, even though everything looks quite solid overall.
