Added
The Debt system, which collects mesos from accounts caught in real money trading

This update was applied during an unscheduled maintenance on 22 October 2026, the day after the Grand Launch. The servers were down from 1:00 PM PDT to about 2:14 PM PDT, and Cash Shop items in every inventory were extended by 2 hours. The game client was updated, so the launcher had to be restarted before logging in.

General

  • More players arrived after the Grand Launch than Nexon expected, so the maintenance added server optimizations and preventive measures for stability.
  • The Debt system was added. An account found buying or selling mesos or items for real money, or trading illegitimately obtained mesos or items, is given a debt in mesos; until it is repaid, the account cannot trade, use a Store Permit or Hired Merchant, gift from the Cash Shop or drop items. Nexon explained it in a separate post.
