Lost Ark – Darkness Unleashed

  • Thaemine Legion Raid: Thaemine the Legion Commander of Darkness has finally appeared under the red sky. Despite the efforts of adventurers to fend off demons in Luterra, the allied forces failed to stop Thaemine from summoning his fortress, the Dark Baratron. Track Thaemine to Dark Baratron and face him as the war between Light and Darkness wages in an 8-player Legion Raid. The entry item level for the Thaemine Legion Raid is item level 1610 or higher for Normal and item level 1630 or higher for Hard.

  • Thaemine The First: Beginning on April 20 at 10am PT, players can participate in Thaemine The First, a special race to clear the original— and hardest— difficulty of the Thaemine Legion Raid. Clearing will be a challenge, even for the most experienced adventurers, but will result in a variety of prestigious rewards.

  • Transcendence: Gear Transcendence is a new system in which players can reinforce and improve their gear's basic effects by using ancient power sealed within ruins. This will manifest through increased damage and defense, with some special abilities for both DPS and Support playstyles.

  • Veskal Guardian Raid: Veskal is a new 1630 Guardian Raid that will be released alongside Thaemine. Veskal is a Chaos Guardian who hunts enemies by using sound waves. He needs to be stopped before his angry screech overwhelms Arkesia. Players will be able to clear the raid once a day for increased rewards, a chance to receive higher-level Fate Embers and a chance to earn the Purification Level 1 Legendary Galewind Rune.
