Lost Ark fans hungry for the promised revamp to the Chaos Gate system are in for a feast today as Amazon has officially patched it in as of this morning.
“The new Chaos Gate is a combination of Chaos Gates, Ghost Ships, and Treasure Map content,” the studio explains. “Chaos Gates will now consist of countless demons in consecutive waves, and 3 bosses. Defeating each boss will grant players with combat buffs that increases attack speed and decreases cooldowns. There’s also a chance that a special hidden boss will appear after defeating the last boss! No player stat adjustments will be applied, and the difficulty will depend on Item Level and the number of participants.”
The gates will spawn either the darkness, phantom, plague, or mayhem legion for players to take on; victory ensures players will come away with an assortment of honor shards, honing support mats, legendary engraving recipes, XP cards, random card packs, gems, gold, and silver. Players are still able to enter the gate from every continent, but matchmaking is set up regionally for 4-16 toons.
