Exclusion of the Imprint Circuit System from PvP Content Notice [55]
Hello, Heirs. This is Epic Seven. First, regarding the Imprint Circuit system introduced in the last NEW ERA update on 4/2 (Thu), we sincerely apologize for the concerns and burden this has caused to many of our Heirs. The Imprint Circuit system was designed to complement limitations in the existing growth structure and provide a continuous sense of progression through gameplay. However, we have confirmed that in the actual game environment, it has impacted PvP competitive content to a degree beyond what we intended, resulting in an undue burden on our players. Our Development Team has taken the concerns shared through the community seriously and conducted a comprehensive review of the Imprint Circuit system. As a result, we have decided to implement the following change: stats enhanced through Imprint Circuit will no longer be applied to PvP content. ■ Exclusion of the Imprint Circuit System from PvP Content - Schedule: 4/9 (Thu) Patch (TBD) - Exclusion: World Arena, Arena, Guild War

We are especially taking the concerns shared by many Heirs regarding the changes to the competitive environment following the introduction of the "Imprint Circuit" system very seriously. We want to be fully transparent about Epic Seven's future direction of measures regarding the points our Heirs are concerned about. 1. Adjustments to the Application Scope and Stat Impact of the Imprint Circuit The Imprint Circuit system was introduced to alleviate the issue where the feeling of growth and progression slows down after a certain level within the structure that maintains the existing growth cap, with the goal of allowing our Heirs to feel continuous growth through gameplay. Accordingly, the Imprint Circuit was designed by considering both the application

Raid Labyrinth Removal & Launch of Trial of the Constellations [116]
Hello, Heirs. This is the Epic Seven Development Team. Today, I'd like to address two major topics that many Heirs have brought up recently: the removal of the "Raid Labyrinth, Azmakalis of Cycle," and the launch of regular season of our new content, "Trial of the Constellations".
