Greetings, Descendants.
(#3) Actions against abnormal gameplay (regarding this issue) have been completed, and we would like to share the results.
A total of 6,066 users were identified as having engaged in abnormal gameplay. Of these, game access restrictions were applied to 62 users after a comprehensive review of the scale and records of their abnormal activity.
Additionally, recovery measures for unfair gains obtained through abnormal gameplay were carried out as follows.
■ Recovery Details
- Transcendent Weapons and Base Quality EXP acquired through abnormal gameplay have been retrieved.
- In cases where acquired Transcendent Weapons were dismantled, the Transcendent Trait Elements obtained through dismantling have been retrieved. If the held quantity was insufficient, a negative value has been applied.
- In cases where Weapon Readjustment was performed on Transcendent Weapons subject to recovery, the material items used for readjustment have been sent via mail.
These measures were taken to retrieve gains obtained through abnormal methods and to maintain a fair gameplay environment. We will continue to monitor and take action against abnormal gameplay behavior.
We will do our best to provide a fairer gaming environment.
Thank you.
Greetings, Descendants.
(#2) We would like to provide an update on the current progress regarding actions against abnormal gameplay in Onslaught.
On 08.26(Wed), we applied game access restrictions to an initial group of users who exploited abnormal behavior. The affected users were selected through a comprehensive review, targeting those who obtained an excessive level of unfair gains compared to regular Descendants' play records, or those whose records showed repeated and continuous engagement in abnormal behavior.
In addition to those who received game access restrictions, we plan to proceed with recovery measures for unfair gains obtained through abnormal behavior.
We are currently preparing for accurate recovery processing, and aim to complete the recovery measures before the Karel's Mothership - Conquest Ranking Run event begins next week.
We will provide additional updates on the results and subsequent measures through this notice.
Thank you.

We are currently reviewing the activity logs related to this matter. During our investigation, we identified a number of users who severely abused the system and have consequently issued game bans.

As a result, there may be changes to the eligible participants for the ongoing Creator Challenge event. If any changes occur, we will provide an announcement through our official Discord.
Furthermore, we are preparing to retrieve the following items that were acquired through this abnormal gameplay:
- Base Quality - Transcendent Weapons - Transcendent Trait Elements
We will provide another update as soon as our investigation and the subsequent actions are concluded.
Thank you.
