5/17 Union χ JP Update: Version 2.6.0 arriving 5/23

Sign · May 16, 2018

-2.6.0 Update Report! vol. 3-
Version 2.6.0 goes live on 5/23!

Thank you for supporting KINGDOM HEARTS Union X[Cross]. Here we will introduce new functions that will be implemented in Ver 2.6.0.

After the 2.6.0 update, the cap on a medal's rarity will be increased and medals can evolve to ★7.
*Experience medals, evolution medals, munny medals, and trait medals cannot evolve to ★7

By evolving to a ★7 medal, the medal's parameters and abilities are greatly improved.

When evolving a ★6 to ★7, the following conditions must be met:

Level and Guilt Bonus percentage must be MAX
Evolution material medals are required (available via PVP)

After the 2.6.0. update, "subslots" are added to each Keyblade.

By setting a medal in the subslot, the slot multiplier of the Keyblade will increase.

You will only be able to set ★7 medals in the subslots, so try to evolve as many medals to ★7 as you can!

Added Skip function to advance the main story smoothly!

After clearing the main quest, you are able to automatically skip to the quest where the next story is set.

If you have not progressed in the main quests, please try this out!

Skipping quests will not clear their objectives
Some quests cannot be skipped
Skipping is not possible in Proud Mode

Re: 5/17 Union ? JP Update: Version 2.6.0 arriving 5/23

...And again we get next to no info on the 7* Medals. Okay, maybe that's putting it harshly but dammit we needed more than this.

*Experience medals, evolution medals, munny medals, and trait medals cannot evolve to ?7

Kinda figured. Does means you want to use all Trait Medals before evolving the medal, even if it's already guilted.

By evolving to a ?7 medal, the medal's parameters and abilities are greatly improved.

Okay, we've been told this. How about giving us an example? This secrecy is unnecessary, it cannot be that big a deal that they can't even use a farmable Tier 1 to make the comparison with. Ridiculous.

When evolving a ?6 to ?7, the following conditions must be met:
Level and Guilt Bonus percentage must be MAX
Evolution material medals are required (available via PVP)

Okay, there's one bit of new info in that the medal must be fully guilted on top of everything else. Hope this means they plan on making FMBs easier to get due to the next point...

By setting a medal in the subslot, the slot multiplier of the Keyblade will increase.

You will only be able to set ?7 medals in the subslots, so try to evolve as many medals to ?7 as you can!

Okay, what the sam hill!? There was no mention of this feature being restricted to 7* medals when the news first came out. It sounded like a great idea at the time that, like the Pet Slot, every player could take advantage of. Now it's limited to a brand new medal type that very few can take advantage of off the bat. That's not cool SE...not cool.

And to top it off, we gave to wait another week for the update. So it looks like 2.6 won't help me with Lexaeus or the Raid Event. Kinda sucks, but oh well. I guess this is what they mean by "lower expectations." Was expecting a nice big chunk of new info and got more rehashing with about 3 smaller new bits of info. Sigh...

Shame that my biggest question about 7* has been answered -- no new art/poses for when a medal reaches 7.

Re: 5/17 Union ? JP Update: Version 2.6.0 arriving 5/23

As expected you need new material to evolve medals to 7â˜… but the only source being pvp sounds a bit harsh to me, because together with the ability to increase your Keyblade stats further this means pvp is the new endgame.

So there will probably be ranking prices and boards like for the coliseum.
