Lock and load, folks! This week packs unprecedented features for ‘The First Descendant’ – the competitive video game that’s stolen hearts and weekends since its launch about an anniversary of a fortnight ago. The brainchild behind this virtual realm, Nexon, keeps its players on an adrenaline high with regular releases of new updates. This week unfolds another minimal patch of the game – version 1.0.4 – alongside a glimpse of the content in the upcoming Week 5 upgrade. Hold your joysticks just a bit tighter because an action-packed ride is ahead!

Remembering the Small Things with Version 1.0.4

Now, you wouldn’t buy a new set of tires for a car with a flat engine, but even small updates can make a big difference. Nexon’s latest patch is no different, boosting gameplay flux with subtle tweaks and raising the module storage limit by 500. Talk about padded pockets!

Looking forward at Week 5, the gaming wizards at Nexon promise more substantial amendments, mainly revolving around Valby. Players – brace yourselves for the debut of Luna, the newest descendant, packing a punch with an ultimate weapon and module.

Find the full briefing of the new update at the bottom of the article, including a sneak peek into what’s held for Week 5.

Delving Into Update 1.0.4’s Satchel

Fine Tuning the Gameplay

The module storage limit has seen an increase from 1000 to a whopping 1500. The cool-down period has been shrunk from five to one minute for ‘Vulgus Strategic Outpost’. Monster respawn time now takes longer and rewards are tweaked at the same outpost.

Fancy some extra void fragments? Now you can collect them after defeating monsters in Special Operation. The item, ‘Mark for Arrest,’ obtained similarly, converts to ten times the usual amount of gold.

Week 5 Update Sneak Peek

First off the list – Sea of Emerald, the ultimate Valby. Completing this project was akin to fulfilling a die-hard fan’s request for an autograph. It’s a nano suit that mirrors Valby’s primary texture and color, making her feel a long-lost part of herself again.

Luna, The New Descendant

After a long hiatus from Albion, Luna – the Mad Artist – is back in the spotlight, armed with a synthesizer gun. Sync your shots to the rhythm, boost your allies’ skills based on your performance, and dance away to upbeat or relaxing music, according to the needs of the moment.

Gluttony and The Peace Mediator

This mutated Devourer-type Gluttony behemoth thrives on Void Energy. Players must exploit its greedy temperament to collect new ultimate weapons and external components. Speaking of peace, tackle the chaos in Ingris with the new ultimate weapon, the Peace Mediator.

More Than Just a Game

The 5th-week update announces balance adjustments for specific Descendants and Ultimate weapons. The AOE-wielding Valby, Blair, and Freyna are set for a power upgrade, promoting more extensive AOE zones and a relaxed vantage point to witness the enemy downfall. Plus, a tweak in single-shot weapons – take your pick between single-shot and rapid-fire modes according to the occasion.

‘The First Descendant’, folks, packs a mighty punch, and it’s only getting started. So plug in your consoles or fire up your PCs – it’s game on!
