Last Updated: September 18, 2026
Latest Rappelz Patch Notes 2026 & Server Updates
This is the main Rappelz Patch Notes hub for Rappelz Tournament. It collects major server updates, Epic content releases, class balancing, dungeon changes, pet updates, ranked item improvements, PvP changes, seasonal events, bug fixes and quality-of-life fixes.
Older forum patch notes continue here alongside later Discord developer notes, client patches, news and announcements as one searchable development history. Major feature releases with dedicated modern guides can still link directly to those guides.
For current gameplay information, use the Rappelz Game Information Hub, 2026 class guide, pet system guide and current client download. For historical context about official Rappelz development, WEBZEN also preserves an official Rappelz expansion announcement.
Historical values can differ from the live Tournament server, so use the dated archive for change history and the linked 2026 guides for current systems.

3. Artemis Content Update! [9.6+ Pets] [Full Patch Notes]
Beginner Ergon Crator set: new characters received the Beginner Ergon Crator Armor Set and Belt, while existing characters could obtain it once through the Trial Guardian in Horizon. The source describes the set as an introduction to equipment-based skill bonuses.
New 9.6+ pets and taming areas: Death Gladiator was added around Horizon Arena / Abyss Challenge 2; Wind, Forest and Ethereal Pixies near Laksy's Blue Pixies; Crystal Golem, Slaughterer, Hector and Ice Spider in Remains of the Ancients; and Liquidlust in Dragon Nest.
Empty pet cards: the new cards were added to Abyss Challenge Floors 1–4. Additional documented taming sources included Tower of Time / GM boss spawns for several creatures and Green TP Mana Stone / Arena sources for the new Pixies.
Boss Cards: the release listed Yushiva, Ent, Cruel Tula, Lion, Barga, Kraken, Wooden Devil, Devil Slaughterer, Stone Gargoyle, Magma Golem, Crazy Hagen and Devil Reviac cards through Reborn rewards, T-Gold NPC, Golden Spins or boss drops.
Pet and dungeon changes: pet and monster animation issues were addressed, Abyss 3 spawn groups were adjusted, dungeon monster pull range was increased, extra ROA bosses were added, and multiple new pets received updated 9.6 passive/active skills and dual unity support.
Normal pet versions: the update removed the new pets' Soul-type taming result and used normal versions with increased stats; older Soul versions could be used as staging material while the Soul system was being reworked.
Rule note: this update explicitly states that using third-party tools to AFK level or farm could result in a permanent ban, corroborating the historical anti-bot / anti-macro server rules.
For current pet mechanics, use the Pet System Guide rather than treating every 2020 value here as current.
