On this update, we have improved the convenience and player experience of the Chip system feature in Closers.

 

There are three main reasons that we considered as an obstacle in the previous chip system.

1. Lack of farming content that allows you to get the final chip
2. The old chip system was complicated due to having a lot of chip types also with the system’s user interface
3. There are many chips with non-preferred stats that are not used

 

To make things better, the Chip system will have an overall major update.

 

After a lot of preparation and a long period of development, we will present to you the changes that have been made in the updated Chip System.

Chip System Changes

1. Chip slot can only be created to level 83 or higher gears
    (Gears under level 83 that already have a chip slot will remain installed and overclocked even after the update)
2. Chip overclock system has been added
3. The user interface of the chip/slot control has been integrated, there’s no need to visit the NPC
4. Chip inventory is now account sharing
5. You cannot trade a gear when a chip is installed
6. Chip class reorganization, reclassification/dual chip, and chance type chip has been removed
7. An item called [Origin chip] will be provided when using an existing chip box
    (Existing chip box items will be renewed)
8. Chip stats will be the same regardless of the gear type.
9. Color driver integration
10. When the chip system is updated, all the chips that are installed in your existing gears will be uninstalled.

 

Chip System Update Details

1. [Chip Content] Increase of Available Level

• The chip system will be opened at the reformed Dimensional Ops Center – Ancient Dragon Historic Site. This site will be available at level 85.
• Only the chip slot of a level 83 or higher gear can be opened.
• You will not be able to change the slot color or open additional slots if the chip slot was created before the update.
  However, chip equip, removal, and overclocking is possible.

2. [Chip Overclock] System
 

• [Overclock] is performed when the material chips are melted into the installed chips.
  •  We highly recommend using chips that you don’t need as materials.
• Whenever a certain level of overclocking experience is collected, it is overclocked by +1.
  •  As the overclock value increases, the required overclock experience value increases.
• Whenever the overclock value increases, the chip’s stat increases.
  •  The maximum overclocking value is the same as the reinforced value of the current gear.
    Example: The +15 chip installed on the Gluttony Infinity Sword can only be overclocked up to +15.
• When the overclocked chip is removed, the overclock value and experience value are reset.
  • You can change the chip type while maintaining the overclocking experience by [Chip Inheritance].
  • You can move the chip to the chip slot of other gear while maintaining the overclock experience value with [Chip Transfer].
    (However, a certain amount of experience will be lost.)
• When removing the chip, [Chip Protector] is no longer needed.

3. [Chip inheritance/Chip transfer] System

1) Chip Inheritance System

This is a system that replaces the chip installed in the gear with another chip.

When you acquire a better chip than the one that is currently installed, you can replace the chip without losing the accumulated experience.

2) Chip Transfer System

This is a system that transfers the installed chip into another gear.

When acquiring better gear, chips can be transplanted to the new gear but can lose a certain amount of experience.

A certain amount of chip protector is required when transferring chips.

4. Chip UI Improvement

You can now add slots or install chips to a gear without going to the Dimensional Ops Center anymore.

The UI for creating/transforming, installing/removing, and creating separate chip is now located in one place.
 

5. Chip Moving Specification Change

One chip inventory is shared by all characters in the account, and chips can be installed, removed, and overclocked.

Gear equipped with chips will not be able to register for the black market or personal transactions.

When the chip is removed, the gear is restored to the original transaction specifications.
 

6. Chip Grade and Color System Change

1) Chip rank is reorganized in tier (T) units.

The color chip grade has been changed from < Broken~Latest > to < T1, T2, T3 >.

• Based on overclocking +10, the T1 chip has the stat of new chip and the T2 chip has the stat of the latest chip.
• T3 color chip is a new high class chip, and can be upgraded to T3 chip by collecting T2 chip and materials

2) Platinum chips are given a tier level

All platinum chips, including single, dual, and Chance types, will be reorganized into 9 [T1 Platinum Chips].

The new platinum chip is a combination of [Physical][Magic][Hybrid]x[Air Strike][Back Attack][Chase]
Example) T1 platinum chip physical & Air Strike
Example) T1 Platinum Chip Psi & Chase

In this update, a new high class chip [T2 Platinum Chip] will be added.

You can collect lower tier platinum chips and upgrade them to higher tier platinum chips.

Upgrade materials for color chips can be obtained from the reorganization tier mat-Wyrm Ruins dungeon.

3) Chips held before the update will be converted into [Origin Chips]

The amount of [Origin Chips] reflecting the grade, quantity, and black market price of the chips you have will be rewarded.

With [Origin Chip], you can create T1&T2 color chips, T1 platinum chips, early platinum chips, and Tiamet attack speed chips.
Early platinum chips can be obtained at a low cost. (It can be crafted at low cost, but overclocking is not possible.)

4) Dual chip is deleted

Removed for a simpler and more efficient content structure.

5) The existing dark chip is changed to [White Chip]

Only black chips can be installed in the black chip slot, and [White Chip Slot] is newly added.

6) Apart from the tier, there are specialized chips such as’Legion Commander: Fly king Chip’.

7. Fixed Type of Chip Stats for each Gear Type & Opening New Slots

Previously, the type of chip’s stats were different depending on the type of gear to be installed. After the update,  the chip’s stats will be fixed and only the number will be changed regardless of the gear to be installed.

A new chip slot will be opened.

• [Amplifier] 3 new chip slots open
  [Shield] 1 additional chip slot open (total 2)
• A total of 9 new slots will be added to all gear.

8. Color Driver Integration

Driver for each color is integrated into one type of [Color Driver].

• Each of the existing color drivers will be exchanged 1:1 with a new integrated color driver.
• Slot color can now be selected in the new UI.

Platinum Driver & Real Platinum Driver will remain.

9. Platinum Chip Stat: This is the standard stat based on overclock 0, and it can improved according to the overclock value.

 

10. Origin Chip Conversion Guide

After undergoing the above major update, the existing chips will no longer be usable.

(Legion Commander: Fly King Chip is still available, but as the stat has been slightly lowered, an additional origin chip will be provided to be used as an overclock material.)

So, at the same time as the reorganization update, all the existing chips will be recollected from the system and

A certain amount of [Origin Chips] will be paid according to the grade and quantity of the recollected chips.

[Origin Chip] is a material that can be converted to a new color chip or Platinum Chip after reorganization.

The higher the rank of the existing chips stored in the gear or chip inventory, the higher the quantity, the more [Origin Chips] can be received.

If you convert [Origin Chip] and installed a new chip then proceed to overclock,

the stats will be still be the same or a higher level of gear will be possible.
 

There will be no case of stat getting lowered after the update compared to the stat before.

[Go to Chip Exchange Ratio]

We hope that you will be able to experience this update much easier and enjoyable.

We understand that this is a massive change from what you have earned during the previous version. But, please know that we have prepared carefully and we don’t want to lose any of your stats after the update.

In addition to this major update, we will hold various events to ensure the smooth supply of new chips.
