QHP Note: Geraint's hawtness rose up to 300% 3D hawtness!! ♥♥♥

All characters are playable - one at a time. You can change between your characters/heroes in the game menu.

There is no character customization in this game. Only weapons, armors, & headgear equipped by characters/heroes change their look. There might be costumes sold in-game shop soon.



■■ It's still a dungeon raiding action rpg with similar combat controls like dodging and defending. The difference is the chain skill combo system that needs to be executed on time to activate perfect combo which deals more damage.

You control the character's movement using virtual pad, and of course you can let the AI play for you using Auto Battle (uber useful when you want to play but is busy with other stuff XD).

You can still control the character even on Auto Battle, virtual pad and skill buttons are still responsive.

QHP Note: We highly recommend helping the AI's Auto Battle on tough dungeons or when doing dungeon Challenges, because AI is not perfect** ^^);


The dungeon has a ranking system, similar to Dragon Nest Online's previous dungeon ranking system. The score is based on how fast you finish the dungeon, you can have a highest rank of "SSS".

QHP Note: We think rewards are based on the rank you get. // We miss this feature on Dragon Nest Online T^T.



■■ Acquiring skill is also different. Instead of acquiring them when you reach a certain level, you get Skill Fragments that can be used to learn new skills or promote old ones. Those fragments are rewards for clearing certain dungeons in "Chronicles".

■■ Process of leveling up gears is different from Dragon Nest Online. In this game you level up gear by using items of the same type/category.

■■ Similar features on Dragon Nest Online are still available in this game like Abyss dungeons, Nests, Raids, PVP-Arena, Guilds.



QHP Commentary:
The chara leveling is quite fast from lv1-30 (we've yet to lv higher than that XDD).
Gear leveling is quite fine as well you'll be able to get Magic to Rare gears from dungeons as loots or rewards, but make sure the dungeon rank you get is high. You also have a high change of getting Epic gear when you buy the Pandora's Gear Box in Shop using Rubies.
Gold and Rubies can be acquired as rewards from daily quests, achievements, dungeon runs, doing dungeon challenges, etc.
The character's battle movement is quite irritating though, because the character auto-targets uber much to monsters closer to it so if you want to attack farther monsters you'll have a hard time dashing towards them. Auto Battle's AI is not perfect XD;**
