Smilegate Megaport has just announced a new hero for its mobile RPG Epic Seven. This time around, we are getting a certain Melissa, who will be accompanied with a new side story entitled “Hatred Blooms Red”.
A 5 star Fire elemental Mage and Vampire, Melissa crossed the ocean in pursuit of revenge after being betrayed by her lover. Her skills utilize the newly added debuff “Curse,” which deals a portion of damage dealt as additional damage to all enemies inflicted with this debuff any time an ally uses a Single Attack. Her third skill, “Blood Bloom,” allows her to deal huge damage by cursing the enemy and ignoring elemental disadvantage. Additionally, the new Artifact that has been released alongside Melissa, “Bloody Rose,” will be useful for Mages who require high Effectiveness. Melissa’s Side Story, “Hatred Blooms Red,” tells a tale of love and revenge and consists of 16 stages and 10 quests, which provide players with additional rewards upon clearing. The side story is available for players to read through until 21 November 2019.
On a side note, to celeberate the first anniversary of the Global and Asia Epic Seven servers, a special buff event will take place for four days. Players will receive different buffs every day, including a 30% increase to experience gains, increased Gold drops, double Rune drops, and a 50% increase to Hunt Crafting Material drops.
Smilegate Megaport’s Business Department Manager Sanghoon Lee had the following to say on the new character:
Melissa is a charming Hero with an intriguing background story and useful skills, and therefore we hope players will be excited to use her in a variety of different game modes. Since Melissa is a brand new Hero, we look forward to seeing our players experience what she has to offer.
It would appear that the developer has put a lot of thought into this new character, so be sure to have her in your party. For more details on the game, be sure to head over to the official website.
And thus began the 7th World... Diche, the Goddess of Life, summoned all of her waning power and once again gave shape to the Guardians and the Heir of the Covenant.
"My children, I entrust this world to you."
