Patch 4.4 - Landfall, Welcome Steam players!

New adventurers step off the boat at KiRoni Port — and Crystaria Online steps onto Steam. Landfall is everything that greets them, and plenty for those of us already ashore.★ Crystaria on Steam. The Steam client signs you in with one press — new players choose their name, race and gender and never touch a password. Already play here? Log in normally inside the Steam client once, choose ◆ Game → ◆ Link Steam, and the Steam button takes you straight to your real account forever after — characters, gear, guild, everything. A full 100 achievements mirror to Steam retroactively, your friends see your level and whereabouts via Rich Presence, and Shift+Tab works. Full guide in the wiki: Playing on Steam.🏆 The Hall of Legends. The Top Lists are rebuilt — five boards, each on a podium with the champion crowned in gold: Combined Level (every class summed, your best class named beside it), Richest (carried and banked together), The Labyrinth, Top Guilds (by Guild Level, so a small driven guild can top the realm) and the new Achievement Points. Three of these run on Steam too — Highest Level, Arena Rating and Labyrinth Depth — and they count your deeds wherever you play.⌛ The Long Watch. Step away, and your character holds a vigil — return and claim up to 12 hours of banked experience per absence, at a quarter of your fighting pace. Coming back always feels like coming back to something.✦ A kinder first hour. New adventurers land hardier (the tutorial Rat is now a fair first fight — and finally looks like a rat), the earliest levels come fast, and menus unlock as you grow instead of arriving all 46 at once — each new door announces itself right on the menu bar the moment it opens, and that system’s tutorial greets you on your first visit. Attunements stays open from level 1: spending stat points is too fundamental to hide. A Next Step rail names the single next thing worth doing — press Show me and a golden ring spotlights the exact button. Existing low-level characters were raised to the new footing and fully healed. And to settle it in writing: gear never wears out — no durability, no repairs. The old tutorial line claiming otherwise was wrong and is gone.☠ Loot, handled your way. The bag’s auto-collect Loot Filter learned a second trick: tick Auto-salvage and anything below your threshold breaks straight down into Ascension Dust the moment it drops — no ground clutter, no bag space, prestige pieces never touched. And Mass Sell is rebuilt to work identically on the web, on Steam and on your phone, pre-filled with your current level.⚔ Community & safety. Realm chat now carries a language filter and a Report option on every message, with reports going to a staff queue. Chat also polls smarter when idle — kinder to your battery and the server alike.▲ Goals that fit the realm. The weekly Realm Goal and guild objectives now scale to the active population — ambitious when the realm is full, honest when it is quiet.⚔ The Reckoning — every class rebalanced. We took all eighteen classes to level 20,000, stood them in front of a raid boss and did the arithmetic. The strongest killed it in 4 swings; the weakest needed 258; one ability could delete a raid boss three times over. That gap is now under 2×. Along the way we found kits that never worked at all: Mimic and Runesmith had no weapon artes, the Runesmith’s entire rune collection was decorative, and Tamer and Minstrel each had both ultimate abilities silently doing nothing. All fixed. Every class also gains five new abilities between levels 400 and 5,000 — that stretch used to be completely silent — the spellbook now runs to level 20,000, and every weapon gains a Tier V arte.The honest part: Skypirate’s Powder Keg is substantially reduced — it was dealing more damage than a raid boss had health, every twenty seconds. Tamers, Minstrels, Paladins, Mimics and Runesmiths gain the most; Skypirates give back the most.◆ One visual language. Violet at rest, gold when it matters — every frame from the title screen to the battle arena, desktop and mobile.

The gates are open. Tell your friends — the dock is waiting.
