Lost Ark to receive a new raid with cuffs as rewards

On October 21, the servers of the fantasy MMORPG Lost Ark by Astrum will receive the raid «Belgardin, Hand of Death». This will be the game's biggest update since the release of the «Master of Time» DLC, which introduced players to the Chronomancer class. Only this time, gamers will have to face a mighty enemy, put modified combat techniques to the test, and receive unique items as rewards, some of which can be upgraded. For example, the cuffs can be upgraded to level 25 and grant their owner increasingly powerful bonuses. Let's take a closer look at these and other changes in the game.

The developers promise not only to introduce an interesting boss, but also to endow him with a tragic fate, the details of which all active gamers will be able to learn. To fight the new supervillain, players will need to assemble a squad of eight companions using a special menu option, or act alone. A completed story quest «When the Bell Fell Silent» is also required — without it, no one will be allowed to face Belgardin. Finally, the gear level requirements for the different difficulty levels of this event are already known: «Expedition» and normal settings — 1750, «Heroic» — 1770, «Nightmare» — 1780. This applies to all participants of the upcoming battle.

As a reward for completing it, whether solo or in a group, everyone will receive rewards: Esdo Energy, cuffs, the Shadow of the Lord of Souls, and the Hand of Death. The last two trophies are materials that help enhance the cuffs as they are upgraded. It will also be possible to get a decent amount of silver, Core Energy, a token for changing bracelet effects, a personal certificate for resetting runite, and a Spark of Destiny. The developers specifically note that a revival system will be in effect in the upcoming battle (the number of revivals depends on the chosen difficulty), and an extended parry option will also appear — a technique that will come in handy in the fight against the main adversary.
