Notes[edit]
- Available to all players since the June 7th, 2022.
- The instance is affected by Day and night. Most importantly, Sigil of the Night and some food will change their effects live while players are in the instance.
- If a member of the squad leaves the instance, other players will not be kicked from the instance and those left inside will remain within the squad.
- If the squad leader disbands the squad while inside the instance, a new squad will automatically be formed on those still within the instance. The squad leader is kicked from the instance and immediately removed from the squad.
- Players in the instance will gain the special action skill Mushroom King's Blessing, which allows them to refresh skills on a 5-second cooldown.
- Every 20% of golem HP, player DPS will be shown in the combat chat tab; this is the only area of the game that displays such information.
- In order to have multiple people in the same instance of the Training Area, the players must be in a party together and must enter the instance at the same time.
- When playing as a Thief, it is possible to spawn a soldier to practice reviving when stealing from the golem that carries the Unstable Artifact
