Ellr and Golden Thief Bug hotfixes

Hotfix7 November 2026

Today's update had a few problems. We fixed them during the day, and all fixes are live now. Thank you for your patience.

Create Character crash

  • Picking the Ellr on Create Character crashed the game on every platform.
  • The new Ellr armour could not be loaded.
  • First, we took the Ellr armour out for a short time. During that time, the Ellr wore their normal outfit.
  • The Ellr armour is back now and it works. Picking the Ellr no longer crashes the game.

Golden Thief Bug loot

  • After the update, the Golden Thief Bug did not drop its 4 gold weapons at all.
  • Now each weapon drops at 2% per kill, as our last news post said.
  • The weapons are the Gilded Cutlus, Zeny Knife, Gilded Survivor's Rod and Gilded Ballista.
  • This fix is on the server. You do not need a new client for it.

Ellr size and looks

  • After a warp or any map change, an Ellr could stretch to Norman height. You saw long, thin legs when the weapon was drawn, when jumping and when turning.
  • The first map after login was always fine.
  • Now the Ellr keep their own size on every map.
  • The Ellr camera also stays right after a warp. Before, it changed to the Norman camera.
  • When you go back to character select, the Ellr is now shown the right way.
  • An Ellr with no armour shows the Ellr's own outfit again. Before, empty slots showed Norman clothes on the Ellr body.
  • Ellr armour no longer looks dark in strong light.

New Ellr characters

  • New Ellr now start in the Adventurer Training Ground, the same as Normans. They get the same opening.
  • This is for now. The Alfheim Training Center will get some work first.
  • Ellr who already exist stay where they are.
  • The Alfheim Training Center is still there. The Kafra Migo Alfred in Alfheim town takes you there for free.
  • The guard Eglon there still gives Ellr the four starter quests.

Still known

  • Some hats (the Pukui hats) and capes can look squashed on an Ellr.

How to get the update

  • There is a new client for Windows, Mac and Android.
  • Close the launcher and open it again to get the new client.
  • Mac: the new version downloads through the launcher.
