ELGACIA EPILOGUE
You’ve completed the Elgacia quest, but there’s more to experience, such as new quests and new rapport NPCs in Elgacia. Find your friends and help them discover their new futures while you share celebrated memories from your travels.
To experience the epilogue, you must first complete the following two quests - Truth, Lies, and Choices, and [Awakening] The Sunset. The epilogue can then be received from ‘Soldier Alexia’ in Ereonnor’s Military District. Finishing it will reward you with the Journey’s End Jukebox Song, plus a new Vairgrys Questline trigger item (Beautifully Folded Letter).
KAKUL-SAYDON INFERNO LEGION RAID
The most difficult version of Legion Raids, the Inferno difficulty is all about proving you’re among the best of the best in Arkesia, and earning the accompanying prestige. Rather than chasing the normal rewards of gear, materials, and everything else you’d receive in a Legion Raid, Inferno rewards instead showcase your victory with titles, achievements, Stronghold structures, and more! The Inferno difficulty of Kakul-Saydon will require Item Level 1475, and a full build set-up in the Book of Coordination.
Checkout last week’s July Update Announcement for tips and tricks from Lost Ark legend Saintone on preparing for the raid and adapting to some of the new challenges that the Inferno difficulty weaves into the encounter. Along with the tips, Saintone welcomes all interested raiders to the Hell Academy Discord, a place for Inferno mode enthusiasts to learn more about the fights, builds for classes, and find other raiders.
MUSIC BOX OF MEMORIES
The Music Box of Memories is the vestige of ancient civilization long gone, manifesting as a gadget that can be played with 'Memory Orbs', a new collectible. Experience new stories of the inhabitants of Arkesia who have not received the spotlight with the Music Box of Memories. Gain hints from various continents and progress quests to collect Memory Orbs and earn rewards. Acquired hints can be checked via mouse hovering the orb in the collectible UI (hotkey – Alt +L).
