Classes' Mystic Artes - I believe it is time that the classes start having their MAs after testing out mine and Jade's Mystic Artes as prototype builds along a boss's this month. It is stable enough to work on classes' personal mystic artes. It will take some while for classes to have their unique mystic artes, one by one, starting with Swordsman, Mage, Fighter and Archer in this order. Make sure to check at the game's wiki page if any updates concerning if their MA is now available with the skill: Special.
Storyline continues - After all the new artes, fixes, new systems and etc. It is time for the story to continues, starting off from Sanora. New areas will be coming soon with new monsters.
