Dev Blog #15
Hello, Pioneers!
This is the last blog about the update v. 2.1, and today we would like to tell you about the new Free-PvP location - Island of Fire!
Island of Fire
The entrance to Island of Fire is located in Outside Bahia. Any family, regardless of level, can enter there. But be careful:
There is a free-PvP mode on the Island of Fire. All families that do not belong to your squad will be hostile to you.
The location is divided into 4 zones. You can get exclusive drops in each of the zones:
- Zone 0 [Lv.66-76] (free):
Enchant Chip Lv. 68
Enchant Chip Lv. 72
- Zone 1 [Lv.78-88] (100.000 vis)
Enchant Chip Lv. 76
Enchant Chip Lv. 80
Enchant Chip Lv. 84
- Zone 2 [Lv.90-100] (500.000 vis)
Enchant Chip Lv. 80
Enchant Chip Lv. 84
- Zone 3 [Lv.100-108] (800.000 vis)
Enchant Chips Lv. 84 - 100
Random unique veteran gloves
Random unique veteran boots
To access zones 1-3, purchase a key from the Entry Guard at the end of zones 0-2.
You cannot save the warp to this location. When you exit to the barracks, this location is not available for return. You cannot go to the previous zones from the higher level zones.
Strange minerals
You can get Strange Mineral by hunting monsters on the Island of Fire.
After collecting 20 pieces, hand them over to the Mineral Exchanger in Bahia Port to get a random item from the list:

Treasure Hunt & Bellem Ruins
On the Island of Fire, you will have access to 2 new activities - treasure hunt and bellem ruins
We have written guides in our discord to make it easier for you to start participating. We advise you to pay attention to them (especially Bellem Ruins), as these activities will allow players to become stronger regardless of their level and playstyle!
Royal Rumble
As you know, Granado Espada has been adding more and more scheduled PvP events over time - in later patches, you could spend your entire game time participating in PvP. We will be adding such events according to the original updates. In update 2.1, we are introducing the first of these events - Royal Rumble!
Join the fierce One vs All battles four times a day and get more Enchant Chips as a winner!
Sekhmet
Yes, this is an unkillable boss (for this update). We did not change it in any way - we wanted to preserve the original game without resorting to custom changes. Let Sekhmet be the main challenge for many updates to come. We added an original passage to the arena and set the stats of the old Sekhmet. Only the strongest players will be able to defeat this boss and find out what treasures she guards.
But we will give a small sneak peak
And some minor changes
- Pendants added to all tools droplists (monsters, bosses, mission boxes)
- Raccoon Hat and Quipao Cotume added to the Cash Costume Shop
- Elite Le Blanc Costume (Basic characters) added to the Costume Shops
- Several minor bugs (e.g. Dagger of Queen issue) fixed
- Ferruccio forges drop chances changed - more rings, less potions!
We have dedicated a lot of time to this project because we are very passionate about Granado Espada. Yes, we have experienced several problems during these three months - but we always do our best to provide you with comfortable gameplay on the only classic GE server. I would like to thank everyone who writes kind words, invites friends to the server, sends donations, or just simply enjoys playing Granado Espada Classique. We have many plans for the future - the next update will not be long in coming.
Stay Tuned!
