Game Update: Manual Apocalypse Blade and Total Battle Power Rebalance

Sep 9, 2026 | Update

Grand Chase Classic Maintenance Update

Total Battle Power Calculation Updates

The game will adjust how specific stats affect your Total Battle Power.

  • Stat Priority Order: Critical Chance, Critical Damage, Attack, Special Attack, Back Attack Damage, and MP/AP Recovery Rate.
  • Increased Weight: Critical Damage, MP/AP Recovery Rate, and Back Attack Damage.
  • Decreased Weight: Attack, Special Attack, and Hell Spear Damage.

Critical Chance Changes

Your current Critical Chance percentage determines its exact impact on your Total Battle Power.

  • 100% or below: Receives base weighting.
  • Over 100% to 120%: Receives reduced weighting.
  • Over 120%: Does not add to your Total Battle Power.

Increasing both your Critical Chance and Critical Damage will gradually increase the Total Battle Power you gain.

Recovery Rate and Scaling Fixes

The MP/AP Recovery Rate stat now increases Total Battle Power more significantly for AP characters. The system also fixes an error where gaining power from a specific stat could decrease as your overall Total Battle Power grew.

Ereb Mechanics and Skill Adjustments

Ereb receives a new skill called “[Special Command] Ruin Blade Extension”. This separates the automatic and manual use of Apocalypse Blade. The game will reset Ereb’s skills due to this addition and the adjustments made to skill requirements.

Ereb Skill Tree Update

Using Manual Apocalypse Blade

Equip the new manual skill in your tree. Activating Ruin Blade will display a new UI element above your gauge bar. This indicator shows your accumulated Apocalypse Blade charges.

Apocalypse Blade UI

  • Press X when your dedicated gauge is available to activate the attack.
  • You can store up to 2 charges at a time.
  • Your accumulated charges reset entirely when the transformation ends.

Cataclysm Stat Scaling

All attacks executed during Cataclysm now benefit from Rune and Core effects that increase 4 MP Special Skill damage. The game treats all Command attacks used in this state as Special Skill damage. These specific attacks now benefit from both Attack and Special Skill Attack stats, resulting in higher overall damage output.
