New Class - Shai

● As a villager from Florin, Shai has a good understanding of gathering and alchemy. Upon creation, Shai will be a 'professional' for both life skills right off the bat. 
- As a result, Shai will not be able to proceed with certain life skill quests from Florin village. 
- When transferring life skill experience from Shai to a different character, only the life skill experience gathered by the player can be transferred over. (Shai's base alchemy and gathering level of professional will stay intact.)
● Florin villagers are already familiar with Shai, so she'll be treated differently when compared to the other classes. Shai will be given different options during her quests in Florin village. 
● Shai can create a class-exclusive bonfire tool through alchemy.
- Bonfires last 10 minutes. Allies nearby a bonfire heal 50 HP every 10 seconds. Bonfires can also cure hypothermia. 
- Bonfire tool has a 30-minute cooldown. 
● Shai has always had a donkey companion, ever since she was young. She knows how to better handle donkeys, and she can travel fast while mounting one. 
- Shai who prefers donkeys isn't ready to try riding a horse yet. But surely, the curious Shai could easily handle a horse once she becomes interested in it.
● Shai has narrow shoulders... cats and birds won't be able to perch on them.

New Donkeys

● Derome, Cherose, and Vallet donkeys have been added. There are a number of mount skills that are exclusive to these donkeys.
● Every class will be able to mount these donkeys. However, only Shai will be able to access their mount skills.
● The three new donkeys will be able to learn the following skills.

※ Official English translations may be different upon release in NA/EU.

"To those who have experienced Aakman Temple will know - that certain rooms are superior to the others in terms of grind efficiency. We made this change so that every room will be equal in that regard. You'll now be able to stay put and grind in just one room."
