The MMORPG Lost Ark has unveiled the Colors of Summer update, introducing a fresh hero class called the artist. A concise video preview lays out all the key features of this release for players eager to dive in.
The artist joins the Creator archetype as a versatile support figure. Wielding a colossal brush, her abilities lean into painting and calligraphy, enabling effective team support. She can heal allies while boosting their damage output, making her a valuable addition to coordinated parties and raid groups.
Coinciding with the update, the Akrasia Express event returns, offering a streamlined path to gear up a new character to item level 1445. This event runs through September 21, giving players a practical route to rapid progression and gear optimization before the season progresses.
In addition, a fresh season of the ROCKERovka Battle Pass has kicked off, set to run until September 21. Players can earn a range of rewards, including upgrade materials, collectible card decks, and gems, by completing missions and participating in seasonal challenges within the pass framework.
