Laterano is a theocratic country ruled by a Pope, with its feud between the Sankta and the Sarkaz having existed for thousands of years. The story takes place during the Summit of Nations in Laterano. At a sensitive time when leaders of many powers are gathering in the same place, a girl named Cecelia is found to be a unique Sankta born from a Sarkaz father. Due to her special identity, different forces fight for Cecelia and have a collision for their own ideas and positions. The “Guide Ahead” event lasts from Sep. 16th, 10:00 to Sep. 30th, 3:59 (UTC-7) and the second phase “Road to the Shrine” will open from Sep. 23rd, 16:00.
During the event, 5 Star Specialist Enforcer is available as an event reward. Doctors can collect Etched Bullet Casings by clearing event stages and completing Notarial Tasks to redeem rewards including Enforcer’s Token, Laterano Notarial Hall Lounge Furniture (Pieces), LMD, Furniture Parts, Battle Records, Headhunting Permits, Elite Materials, etc. in Lateranian Desserts.
Fiammetta, as an Artilleryman, possesses a wide Attack Range. The Burning Bullet she fires and the Burning Marks it leaves behind can explode to deal damage to enemies around the blast tiles. When her third skill is activated, she will continuously barrage enemies at her max Range. As the powerful damage capability comes at the cost of her life, Operators with continuous healing skills could support her well and maintain her Attack buff.
Kazemaru is a Dollkeeper. She swaps to a Substitute instead of retreating when receiving lethal damage. She can sacrifice her HP to sharply enhance her next attack or summon a Substitute on a surrounding melee tile.
Enforcer is a Push Stroker that is free to get and user-friendly. He can push the target towards the attack direction and stun it if the target collides with High Ground. His second skill allows him to immediately push back all enemies within a certain range and stun all of them, which enables him to gather the enemies together.
New outfits from the EPOQUE Series are now available at the store, including “Appreciate Fragrance” for Saileach, “Plant Crude Drug” for Mulberry and “Cultivate Vegetation” for Tuye. At the same time, 2 outfits from the Raythean Striker Series, “Striker-Skyline” for Schwarz and “Striker-Overload” for Liskarm will be on sale again. Don’t miss them!
