Players of Mabinogi who are pushing their characters to new heights have a few things to be excited about, as the anime MMO’s Arcana: Dark Arts update has brought on a whole lot of new things to its arcana system. And before we get much further, let us remind you that arcana is effectively like an advanced class mechanic; try to bear that in mind because that word is going to be flung about a lot here.
The headline of this latest patch is the addition of two new arcana talents in the form of the Alchemical Sharpshooter and Dark Diviner. The Alchemical Sharpshooter combines alchemy and archery to create a potent elemental ranged attacker (as its name suggests), while the Dark Diviner wields magic and chain slash talents together into a mystical and oh-so-gothic caster combo.
In addition to these new talents, the overall arcana system has seen multiple updates, such as new arcana growth features, an expanded arcana total level effect, the ability to level arcana talents to 50, and updates to arcana link quests, among other things.
On top of all of this arcana-centric newness, the patch has launched several events, run over a long list of bugs, and made a few small text improvements. There’s a whole lot of arcana going on in this update, so those deep in their Mabinogi cups will likely want to dig into the granular details.
