Lost Ark’s August Update is here! The “Calm Before the Storm” update is built to make everyday life in Arkesia better with new content, events, skins, and other changes.
Indigo Island
Indigo Island is located off the coast of the Kurzan Continent in the Sea of Gienah and opens up for players at item level 1600 to explore. The island includes a quest to access the Sea Cave dungeon. You can begin the Indigo Island quest and dungeon after interacting with the "Someone's Voice" quest near the island entrance. The "Luminous Coral Stone" award awaits and can be exchanged for progression materials. The dungeon’s one of three paths can be completed once a day per roster.
Bound Gold
Bound Gold has been added as a way to grant Gold for use exclusively in progression systems. Two current systems will be updated to provide Bound Gold instead of ‘Tradeable’ Gold found in the gold reward chests from Una’s Tokens, along with Solo Mode Raid Gold.
Chaos Dungeons
Chaos Dungeons receive a Weekly Purification System. When playing through Chaos Dungeons with Aura of Resonance active, you can earn weekly Purification Points. These points accumulate into reward chests. Silver and Honor Shards received from Chaos Dungeons will be removed and replaced with set reward chests containing them in the Purification system.
A Chaos Dungeon Purification Event will accompany the launch of the Chaos Dungeon Purification System. The event will run from August 14 to September 25, and is built to give additional rewards as players head toward the launch of Tier 4.
Other August Updates
Other August Updates include a New Monthly Fever Time Event, an updated Daily Log-in reward track, and continuation of The Maharaka Festival with the ‘Set Sail, Mokokos! Pirate!’ mini-game.
In addition, new cosmetic collections such as Neria’s Wardrobe and Runner Skins have been added.
