Gracia Part 2 will be hitting live servers on Tuesday, Oct. 28, but until that time it needs to be tested. Hop on to the Public Test Server and try out the update with some added perks, such as x4 experience and x6 drop rates, but don't forget to reporter any bugs you find.

The full patch notes for Gracia Part 2 can be found in this thread on the PTS forum or below.

The Halloween Haunt event will kick off on Oct. 28 to celebrate the launch of Gracia Part 2, but you can begin preparing for it now. Full information can be found here.

During the next couple of weeks, Omega will be setting up shop in Giran on the PTS. He won’t be there all the time, so you’ll have to catch him when you can. You’ll find him in a buy shop, looking for random items that he will be using to create his special trick or treat goodies.
