Ether Saga Onward
Old Pokari  Fully updated · mobs at 120+ · world bosses daily from 20 September 2026

Year One

Twelve months of server time, read back to you. Old Pokari reopens, the ceiling lifts, and every character who was here gets a recap.

Your Year, Read Back

Every character gets a breakdown: hours played, base and evolved class, hometown, birthday, who you married, which guild you were in, how full your bags were. Sixteen boards rank the year across the server, eight of them carrying prizes.

Fun stats, unranked

Logins, session lengths, deaths, trades, reinforce attempts, quests and lottery pulls all appear in your recap and in the server totals — but they carry no prizes, and the reason is on the record below.

The World Remembers Itself

Level cap 120 → 130

Old Pokari is not a new area. It is a zone from the original game, brought back from the decompiled client and now fully updated for players — every old location is there, with its mobs raised to levels 120+. Keep an eye out for unique and dungeon mobs, and bosses too. The ceiling lifts to 130 in the same maintenance so there is somewhere to spend it.

Eighty characters were already standing in Old Pokari when the Year One snapshot was taken. Some of you found it before we announced it.

Mobs at 120+

The old map, the old spots, the old mobs — all brought up to the new ceiling. Unique and dungeon mobs are back in their places.

Two world bosses

Defier of Cuteness and Bacon Eater spawn in the zone every day, and every kill pays a 120 Token. Spawn times →

Gear that already works

The bosses feed gear that has been in the game and in balance for months. The cycle is permanent — both bosses keep spawning after October.

Roaming shop & super imbue
Both move to a new NPC at every maintenance, and a server broadcast names the region — the search is part of it. Stock rotates with the location, 120 Tokens are spendable there, and each character gets 3 super imbues per rotation. Anniversary-only stock is marked as leaving.

In every participation claim

Anniversary Pet Pack

Two anniversary pets, each unlocked by its own kill-count quest — the same pattern as the butterfly twins. Something a player doing dailies clears inside a week. The quest-start items expire with the claim window on 18 October, so start them before then.
