Episode 3 - Soul & Sienna Altar of Siena B1F (New Dungeon)
Deep inside the ruins in the heart of the Mutant Forest a dark power is stirring, slowly spreading its evil influence. You must enter into the twisting maze of a ruined temple to combat monsters with powers unlike any you have encountered before, in order to stop this ancient evil from spreading out into Nevareth. This dungeon will challenge even the strongest of warriors, but the rewards, including the new Sig-Metal armour set, will be worth it.
Entry Requirement -- Character Level 135 or above, Battle Style Level of 11 or above
Entry Item -- Siena’s Crest B1F -- Drops in the Lake Side and higher level maps
Dungeon Location -- Mutant Forest (X: 123, Y: 97) -- The Warp Point will be available to the winning side of the Mission War.
Intro Quest to “Altar of Siena B1F” -- Quest from the Strange Merchant in Mutant Forest -- Quest Reward: Siena's Crest B1F
On Succesful Completion -- Gained Item: Core Cube -- Currently there is no title available for complete the Altar of Siena B1F Soul Ability System
Your character can now become even stronger by harnessing the power of your soul. Gather soul experience while hunting, and use this to equip up to 13 different Essence Runes that offer benefits from increased Alz drop to increased experience solo or in party, increasing character attributes to increasing attack or magic power. You will have to equip your Essence Runes wisely, as equipping them will consume varying amounts of Soul Ability Points, and some of the stronger Runes will be hard to come by. The Soul Ability system will be available to characters that have attained level 120 or greater.
Soul Ability System is? -- Ability EXP known as AXP can be earned along with EXPs. AXPs is converted to AP, and these points can be used to learn passive skills. -- AXP is a sort of EXP that will support the game play to be more exciting as character levels up. Earning AXPs is same as earning of EXPs. If 10K EXPs were earned from the mobs then AXP can be gained around 10K. However, different from EXP, AXP has a different conversion rate by levels.
AXP is ? -- New Ability EXP that can be gained just as the EXP. -- Not that AXPs can be gained instead of EXPs, it is an additional point system that is gained separately with EXP or Skill EXP. However, there is a minimum level requirement for it.
Minimum AXP Earning Requirement --Level 120 --From the maps, dungeons, and Mission Wars.
AXP from maps and dungeons -- Based by the calculation of EXP earning when attacking the mobs, AXP earnings are calculated. -- AXP Bonus is also valid with Premium Services. (AXP Bonus 25%) -- Earning AXP(EXP to AXP) conversion rate is different by levels.
AXP by Mission Wars --It is calculated by personal scores. (Destroying Structures, Guardians, Building Force Towers are not calculated separately to AXP for they are applied to the personal scores) --1 Personal Score equals to 100,000 AXP (If personal score is 100, then you are earned with 10,000,000 AXPs or 1 AP. --It is calculated at the end of the Mission War. If character is not there at the time of the calculation, AXPs are not applied. --WExp cannot be used to earn AXPs nor it cannot be earned with the WExp to EXP conversion.
AXP Limitation --AXP cannot be earned if character AP exceeds 500.
Note that EXP is something that is gained from attacking mobs and which is used to calculate the level up point. The higher levels the characters get, the total amount of EXP to level up increases which makes harder for characters to level up. AXP is something that is earned as same amount as EXP but its total amount of AXP for AP conversion stays the same, but the conversion rate from EXP to AXP or the rate that characters earn from attacking mobs changes as the levels gets higher.
AP is? -- The point that is converted from AXP when a certain amount AXP accumulates. It is a unit that is required for Soul Ability System.
AP Conversion Details -10,000,000 AXP equals to 1 AP. AXP returns back to 0 when converted to AP.
AP Limitation -- Up to 500 AP can be accumulated. (Expansion of its limit is planned in the future) -- AP already consumed to learn skills cannot be returned.
Essence Rune is? -- Items used to learn passive skills or upgrade skills using AP and upgrade items such as cores. -- There are total of 26 Runes available. You can only equip or learn maximum of 13 Essence Runes or skills. -- Essence Runes are tradable items and already equipped or learned Runes can be removed.(Once the Rune is removed, it has to be learned again from LV. 1) --List of Essence Runes and AP needed to equip them per level.

It has come to our attention that there is a strong possibility that players using custom skins for the Cabal user interface will encounter a major bug if they update their clients while they have a skin installed. As such we recommend that all players using skins revert back to the default UI before the installation of the Episode 3 update.
If you no longer have the default User Interface files please download them from this link:

Copy these files into your Cabal/Data/UI directory, to revert to the default UI.
