Smilegate announced on the 24th that it has launched a massive update to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of its 'ALL CLASS' MMORPG, LORDNINE (developed by NX3 Games), which includes the addition of a new Mastery and a new region.

The most notable change in this 2nd-anniversary update is the addition of the 'War Drum,' a new instrument-themed Mastery. The War Drum acts as a Supporter, assisting allies in PvE content like Raids and in PvP environments for large-scale battles. It also features a unique system where players earn 'Rhythm'—a unique resource—by using Skills, which can then be spent to trigger more powerful abilities.

To celebrate the War Drum update, Smilegate is providing a 'Truth Weapon Selection Chest' as a Day 1 reward for all users in the attendance event. Players can obtain a +7 Epic grade War Drum from this chest and use it immediately.

Smilegate has also added a new region, 'Moneta,' to the El Cera continent. The Moneta region can be unlocked by completing related sub-quests and consists of two Fields: Moneta Village, Dragon's Nest, and Silent Grounds. Players can hunt in the Dragon's Nest and Silent Grounds—where 'Anti-Magic' stats are applied—to earn 'End-Time Refining Stones' and 'Ruin Refining Stones,' which can be used to refine Legend and Mythic grade Equipment as tiered rewards.

To mark the 2nd anniversary, Smilegate is hosting various events where players can receive items, including up to 3k summon cards. First, a 2nd-anniversary attendance event will run until August 31. During this period, players can log in to earn various summon cards for Avatars, Artifacts, and Runes, as well as a guaranteed Legend Avatar summon card and Master promotion scrolls. Notably, players who log in after the maintenance on the 24th can receive approximately 1k summon cards through various events starting from the first day.

Additionally, a 2nd-anniversary event pass and mission event will run until the 22nd of next month. By completing in-game missions, players can earn various rewards, including 'Fate' Avatar and Artifact summon cards. During the same period, the 2nd-anniversary 'Tabula' attendance event will provide various materials needed for Character growth.

Furthermore, Smilegate is holding a 2nd-anniversary special push event until the 3rd of next month. Players who log in daily during the event period will receive various summon cards, Buff items, and 100 '2nd Anniversary Gratitude Fireworks.

Finally, Smilegate has upgraded the attendance event rewards for new and returning users. New users can obtain various growth-related rewards through the 2nd-anniversary new user attendance event, while returning users will also receive enhanced rewards through the 2nd-anniversary returning user attendance event. Additionally, a new 'Rockstar Edition' Avatar Skin, 'Noise, the Rebel on Stage,' has been added.
