Preview for the update in February:
The first part of the main story in the time skip Act 1 will start. A dialog with Frall will explain that you and your party also have to get stronger for the fight against Raziel, not just the military. He'll help you with it, and give you access to a new dungeon area.
The new dungeon will be a raid dungeon with strong enemies. The final boss will give you emblems of certain elements/gods, which allow a class change for the connected party members. The class change requires level 99, the emblem, and a training event with a side character. The new class allows the character to go up to max level 200, increases stats, and gives new skills.
New skills have higher damage and higher MP costs than older skills.
The new raid boss will have multiple phases, with different elements and weaknesses, which might require the use of the swap skill to change your party mid battle.
There will be an area with enemies that can drop an item to give a character a level up, up to level 99, to make getting to that level cap less of a chore.
I also added a new armor type "Medium Armor" which can be used by Ryen, Tsubaki, Trey, Mirel, Sandra, Brad, Elly, Ryoko and Kayelinth after the class change. The armor type is, as the name suggests, something between light and heavy armor. It'll serve as the counter part to the "Magic Armor" for casters.

[The idea is that long term buffs and debuffs like Kayelinth's Jade Power can be used in boss battles, and then the character can still be swapped out to continue with a different party. This allows to combine the buffs/debuffs of more than just 4 party members.]
All feedback is appreciated.
