Adjustment to the Guild Boss progress and new Rage Rewards

Players can form a team of only six hunters per challenge, as opposed to the previous nine hunters. They can’t use the hunter already included for the existing challenge to the next. These restrictions don’t apply to the practice mode.

Netmarble has also reduced the Guild Boss weakness to three in the Solo Leveling Arise April 10 update. The developers will adjust the boss’s weak attributes in every update. They’ve also increased the rewards obtainable based on the Guild Boss Rage counts.

Gamers can access the next difficulty upon clearing Proof of the Strong content for each game mode, starting from tier 22. Whenever one defeats a boss with a specific difficulty, other bosses’ difficulties within the same content will unlock.

Players can obtain Reforge Stones (required to Reforge Artifacts) and new Artifacts by clearing stages higher than tier 21. Clearing stages after tier 21 will no longer drop Crimson Knight, Dragon Knight, High-ranking Demon, Holy, Skeleton, Behemoth, Red Eye, and Aquamarine Artifacts.
