Global updates and elites

Elite monsters

Every time you kill a monster, you have a small chance of summoning an elite. Each elite gives you dust which can be exchanged in the capital for boxes.
For each box, you can randomly collect objects from the following list:

• 20~30 Blue potion
• 10~15 Bottle pomegranate
• 10~15 Acid bottle
• 2~5 Poison bottles
• 2~5 Speed ​​Potion
• 1 rare item

The rare item is defined according to the color of the box which is selectable:

• Black box: Robo Eye Costume
• Pink Box: Chewing Gum Costume
• White box: Costume Spare Card

Please note, these costumes are temporary and are not present in the loot boxes present on the cashshop.
