▍Aether Gazer v1.05 – Red & Green Main Story
The v1.05 update expands on the main story by uncovering the mystery behind Osiris. The story explores Osiris’s internal struggle with her alter ego, Ausar. The role of Ausar, either as a friend or foe and the purpose of its existence remains a puzzle. With the revelation of this secret, every character in Aether Gazer is working tirelessly to support Lil’ Osi.

The update also features a special limited-time event that offers a wide range of rewards. Players have the chance to earn Imago Fragments to get Intel of Archaic Oath – Verthandi, Shifted Stars, and Sigil Module T3, among other prizes. By completing various challenges, players can further gain extra Shifted Stars and the Limited Sticker Two Souls.
The event introduces “Dream Link”, a unique exploration mode, named as Causality Survey. Within this mode, Admins are given the opportunity to explore the map and in return, secure a multitude of rewards such as Shifted Stars, Sigil Shards, and Ain Soph Coins, among others.
The event also presents the “Imago Challenge”. This feature transforms the negative emotions accumulated by the Modifiers into tangible demons that the player is required to conquer. This challenge manifests in three different difficulty levels – Normal, Hard, and Extreme, with each successful completion rewarding the players with Shifted Stars, Ain Soph Coins, and other valuable materials.
Also, in the “Gen-zone Simulation” players are invited to successfully navigate through five Gen-zone trial levels. Based on the points accrued, enticing rewards can be obtained. Admins have the option to choose affixes, which in turn, increases the difficulty of the challenge. The higher the difficulty, the greater the challenge points the Admin stands to gain.
The “Imago Gift” feature of the event allows Admins to collect a host of Archaic Oath – Verthandi Intel fragments, limited sticker “Two Souls Tied”, Shifted Stars, and other materials by successfully completing event tasks.
