Hope you’re ready for Lost Ark’s November update because it’s dropping early tomorrow morning just ahead of the holiday. It’s even called Holiday Awakening. How convenient is that?
At the core of this update is the brand-new island, called Buzzling Island, and if you’re thinking that the theme might be apis-related, then you’ve guessed correctly.
“Buzzling Island is located left of Tortoyk in the Gienah Sea, and the recommended Item Level is 1520 or above,” Amazon says. “Players can start the quest after interacting with Colorful Honeybees near the island entrance. All Buzzling Island Quests can be done once per roster. When transformed into a bee, players can interact with their characters by using arrow keys. Players can challenge the Trial of Honor to join the honorable Royal Guards by competing with others in a race event.” Do note that you’ll have to complete the Source of the Sweet Smell to get to the Trial of Honor itself.
The pet ability system also joins the game’s content roster tomorrow.
“Pets can learn abilities through Ability Training at the Stronghold Ranch, with abilities available in three grades: Rare, Epic, and Legendary, offering increasingly powerful effects. Abilities are specific to Security Division placements, with the Ranch providing battle-related effects, the Farm focusing on farm-related effects, and the Dock supporting stronghold activities like Dispatch and Craft. These abilities only activate when the pet is placed in the appropriate Security Division area that matches its ability type. You can check your pet’s abilities in the Pet Inventory or the Security Division.”
Downtime is expected beginning at 3 a.m. EST on Wednesday, November 27th; servers ought to be back up around 10 a.m. EST.
