The Action-MMORPG Lost Ark has released the update "Awakening of Shadows." It introduces players to Zerk, the Witch of Pain, once a healer whose soul was consumed by darkness. Now she turns healing into an instrument of torture, creating deadly traps and testing her foes’ strength.

Players can fight Zerk in the Shade Raid, designed for a team of 4 players, which includes two phases and three difficulty levels: normal, heroic, and nightmare. The battle features a resurrection system – every three minutes of battle, one additional resurrection opportunity will be added. If all players die, the phase will restart automatically.

Completing the raid at high difficulty levels opens the opportunity to earn the "Spike of Suffering" as a reward, which is used to craft new gear. Additionally, for defeating it in nightmare mode during the first week of the update's release, players will receive a unique achievement and title. However, even after the week ends, players can still earn unique tracks, transport, and other achievements.

In celebration of the update, new PvE activities are available in the game: the dungeons "Hal's Hour" and "Chaos Rift," as well as a new raid mode on the Keepers. Along with this, gaming events with rewards have started to help players quickly master the new content and prepare for the raid.

The update is now available on the VK Play platform.
