Summary
Update 4.12.0 is a massive expansion to the endgame progression of Throne and Liberty. The core of the update is the Item Level Expansion, raising the cap from 80 to 90 (and 93 for specific Archboss weapons) while significantly easing the growth process for mid-tier gear. Players can now challenge two new Field Bosses, Grimturg and Exodus, in the Nix region to obtain materials for three powerful new equipment sets: Verdigris Covenant, Ancient Resolve, and Azure Sanctuary.
Beyond content, the patch introduces sweeping Weapon Skill Balance changes, particularly for the Staff and Spear, and implements a major PvP Stat Gap Reduction to normalize Hit Chance and Evasion in competitive modes. Quality-of-life improvements include a consolidated Auto Sort menu and a Recommended Growth Setup system to assist players with build optimization.
