Introducing the Dark Knight Brotherhood Vice Leader Elva! As a Dark Fighter she packs defense comparable to attack-oriented Heavy Armors and attack of defense-oriented Valkyries into solid 2-block body with 10 MR to boot. Upon Awakening into a Paladin, she loses her awesome design gains more defense the less health she has, (same deal as avenger's attack). And she herself is our "attack-oriented" variant, who wields a saw-sword and speeds up (and increases) her own attack on skill, gaining assassination chance passive on Awakening. ...Dat cost tho...

Comments about the event

->Open Spoiler<-

Holy silver EVERYTHING farm fest! As we still don't know how future event schedule would look like, be sure to farm up a good scores of every silver you can. There's also the debut of our lovely futa Silver Angel as a farmable unit - be sure to stock up on her, as all angels (but event Miruno) share her skill, so you would be able to raise them up with her copies.

For maps themselves, be on lookout for Dark Knight-Commander's fearsome debuff aura and prepare to face the newest Superboss, Greater Demon Pig with his OVER 5 THOUSAND XD attack, on his home field of Underworld, where we can fight only at half strength... So, good luck! ;D

On the good side, you will have a chance to see both Black DRK's at their respective G maps: Premium one, Cornelia, on Treasonous Knight, and the esteemed Danchou Knight-Commander Grand Master of Unchivalrous Order of Dark Knights in Hell. Even if they will be in their unawakened forms, and so only at fraction of their true power, that's still something)

Kind of. That seems to be maps for Aamon's Majin Advent - a super hard event for veterans and whales to challenge their AW99 full-black teams with
