What’s New in AFK Journey 1.3.3 Patch Update
Here’s a breakdown of the fresh content players can expect from the AFK Journey 1.3.3 patch update:
1) Introduction of New Hero
The AFK Journey 1.3.3 update features the debut of a new hero: Athalia, Harbinger of Justice. As a member of the Rogue class in the Celestial Faction, Athalia excels in dealing physical damage with a one-tile attack range.
Athalia is a damage-per-second (DPS) character whose Ultimate skill passive allows her to transform into a Lance upon defeat, albeit with 35% diminished attack capabilities compared to her living form. Players can deploy her effectively in various modes, including Story, AFK Stages, Dream Realm, and PvP, taking advantage of her robust damage output.
This Celestial hero can be retrieved exclusively from the Stargaze Station, and she’ll also be available for trade at the Guild Store.
2) Additional New Content
In addition to Athalia, the update brings a variety of other content, including:
- Level 2 enhancement for the Force skills of Satrana and Salazer.
