Nostalgia Instances Revision: August 6, 2026

Nostalgia Instances are a system in our game designed to encourage revisiting older instances, now revamped into "Awakened Mode" (AWK) for high-level, endgame players. These instances feature some changed bosses with new tactics and are rebalanced for stronger characters. Players must complete specific questlines to unlock access. Rewards include new titles, items, and an enriched storyline.
In each instance monsters drop materials which are needed to craft the items. Also there are special Daily Quests which will give you Material Packages.
