October has been a big month full of change for Lost Ark. Tier 4 arrived, along with new progression and upgrade systems, new skills, and more in last week’s Arkesia Ignited patch. There will be a second update this month, and Amazon is previewing the arrival of Aegir, the second Kazeros Raid.
There are two gates to contend with in the new Aegir raid, giving you a chance to master the first part of the challenge before actually facing Aegir. Yet, that first part of the challenge isn’t a forgiving one – Akkan will return and be the first big boss. That first gate, Chapter 1: Earth Shattering Hellfire (a subtle name if we’ve seen one), requires item level 1660 if you want to take it on in Normal mode and if you dare go for Hard mode you'll need item level 1680. In the raid, you'll have access to the new Hyper Awakenings, and Hyper Awakening skills, to help you and your eight-person party out and have a shot at victory. That is, if you can figure out the solution and mechanics.
After making it through Akkan’s return, then you’ll finally get to confront Aegir.
There's more to come in the October 23rd update, but the brand new raid is one of the biggest features on the way. With the October 23rd update, a transfer window will open to allow for players to reinforce the fight against the Demon Legions, and there will be new cosmetics If you want to look good doing it. more content in that update will be revealed, but if you have been working your way through the new Tier 4 systems to get ready for the raid, it is going to be here soon.
