Lost Ark ends March with a sneak peek at what’s coming to the fantasy MMORPG in this month’s update. The highlight of the April update is the opening of the Brelshaza Legion Raid’s hard mode where players will get the chance to obtain materials to craft Ancient gear.

To take on Legion Commander Brelshaza in Hard mode, you and your party members must have a minimum item level of 1540 to get past the first two gates, item level 1550 for the third and fourth gates, and item level 1560 the fifth and final gates.

Players will also need to have earned the “Phantom Shards Remnants” level 1 achievement to be able to craft Ancient Gear. The achievement can be earned by equipping a full six-piece Relic gear set earned from the Brelshaza raid.

“Tier 3 Upper Relic gear can be transferred to Ancient level gear,” explains Amazon. “The gear's quality and set levels are maintained when transferred, unless the new piece has a higher quality.” Ancient gear share the same set effects and options as Relic gear and can be honed up to level 25, with each honing level adding 5 item levels.

April’s update will also introduce a new Punika Powerpass along with new Ark Pass Season 3 free and premium reward tracks. The update will also kick off several in-game events, including the Hyper Express Plus and Engraving Support events, another round of the Story Express event, and the brand new Hanumatan Guardian raid.

Amazon promises to reveal more information about the new raid soon. In the meantime, you can check out the full April update preview on the Lost Ark official site.
