Lost Ark's May Update Launching on May 10th - Adds new Slayer Class

Lost Ark's May Update is set to launch on May 10th and includes the new Slayer class which is the fifth warrior advanced class and a female remix of the Berserker.

In addition to the new Slayer class, the May update includes the following:

• Punika Powerpass - Similar to the North Vern Powerpasses from the launch version of Lost Ark, this pass allows players to bring an alternate character into the game once completed the storyline through that continent. Additionally, players will receive Item Level 1340 gear.
• Hyper Express Event II - Players will be able to designate one character between item Level 1340 and 1460 on their roster to participate in this event where they’ll earn honing materials to quickly level up to Item Level 1460 and beyond.
• Engraving Support System - Lets players choose 4 engravings to be in effect at level 3 during the event.

Despite its steady decline in active users since launch, Lost Ark remains one of the most played games on Steam, averaging 71,000 concurrent players over the last 30 days.

Full patchnotes aren't available yet, but will launch alongside the update on May 10th. Expect some quality of life changes and enhancements to the new player experience as well.
