Fall has already arrived on Lost Ark with the Arktoberfest event, and there is more to come. The latest update, introduced on Sept. 28 following four-hour maintenance, will add a new Advanced class: the Machinist, “ready to blast, burn, and neutralize any threat with surgical precision.” It’s fittingly called “Rage with the Machinist.”

The update also brings a new Legion raid, more progression events to farm honing materials, general updates, and bug fixes. In addition, the server merge is taking place at the same time but will take more time (approximated at 16 hours). Another one will be introduced in a few weeks.
Here is the update’s full list of patch notes.
New advanced class: Machinist
The Machinist is the new Gunner Advanced Class to join the roster in Lost Ark. It uses high-tech tools to fight and a Hypersync ability they charge up to land more powerful attacks on the opponents. Here is a blog post where the developer details the class’ skills, mechanics, engravings, and more.
New Legion raid: Kakul-Saydon
The third Legion raid is entering the game, called Kakul-Saydon. It’s the scariest clown you’ll see ahead of Halloween because the fight will be challenging. Revives won’t be possible in the middle of the fight, which means teammates won’t have the slightest margin for mistakes.
The fight will be available for players with gear of an average item level of 1,475 in Normal mode. But this time, players will be able to enter a rehearsal level to train and will only need an item level of 1,385. The Rehearsal mode, as well as the Normal one, will have a weekly lockout (one per character). Special training is also being added to apprehend the game’s main mechanics.
The players can trade their rewards in the form of Mayhem Marks and Mayhem Trumpets. Those tokens can be traded by speaking to the Legion raid Exchange NPC, but they’ll have a weekly and roster limit. A new Set Gear Management NPC is also being added in all of Lost Ark‘s major cities.
New events
