Mingzhou Version 2.4 Major Update! New characters, new regions, new outfits, and a gaming extravaganza await you!

Shockwave! This update is incredibly powerful! Crescendo version 2.4 debuts with a bang, featuring new characters, new regions, and new outfits—it’s a feast for us gaming enthusiasts!
Dear wanderers, get ready for this gaming extravaganza! In this 2.4 version, we’ve finally awaited the long-anticipated new characters, Katharina and Rupa! These two new characters are like gifts from the game company, with Katharina appearing in the first half of the gacha pool and Rupa in the second half. The anticipation is almost unbearable!
First, let’s take a look at this update’s gacha pool! The character pool for the first half includes Katharina, Akashi, Baiji, and Ronghu, while the weapon pool features the newly released “Crown of Indomitable Fate,” a great companion for dual-wielded swords! The second half features Rupa, Sana, Taoqi, and Chixia, with the weapon pool being “Flame Mark,” an excellent choice for long swords. This gacha pool is a double treat for us, and whales are going to be thrilled!
Next, let’s dive into the two main highlights of this update—Katharina and Rupa! Katharina is a 5-star wind attribute resonantist who wields dual swords. In combat, she can switch between two forms: Katharina and Fleurdelis. As Katharina, her final segment of normal attacks, heavy attacks, resonance skills, and ultimate skills all summon different sword shadows. When these sword shadows are on the field, using a plunging attack recalls them, dealing additional damage based on the number and type of shadows recalled—a true artist in battle!
When Katharina’s resonance energy is full, using her ultimate skill transforms her into Fleurdelis. In this form, she gains additional effects based on the type of sword shadows recalled. Her attacks generate “Faith,” and when Faith reaches 120 points, she unleashes her ultimate skill: “Roaring Gale Blade,” delivering a powerful finishing move—truly a goddess in combat!
Now, let’s look at Rupa. Rupa is a 5-star pyro and claymore resonantist who excels as a support in pyro teams while also dealing significant damage. Her ultimate skill provides “Hunt” and “Glory” effects to the team: “Hunt” increases all allies’ damage by 6%, with an additional 6% boost when the active character uses a variation skill, stackable up to 18%. “Glory” allows all allies to ignore 3-9% of pyro resistance, depending on the number of pyro resonantists in the team. With three pyro characters, they ignore an additional 6% of pyro resistance. Rupa’s encore skill grants the next resonantist a +20% pyro damage and +25% base attack damage boost—truly the team’s manager!
Rupa’s personal output is also formidable. She generates “Wolf Flames” through her attacks. With at least 50 Wolf Flames, her heavy attacks and aerial attacks in phase 3 consume Wolf Flames to restore “Wolf Soul.” When Wolf Soul is full, she unlocks an enhanced resonance skill—truly a wolf woman in battle!
This update isn’t just about new characters; there’s a ton of new content! Logging in gives you 10 free pulls—talk about generous! The new region “Seven Hills” is now open for exploration, and two new stigmata outfits, “Wolf’s Blazing Flame” and “Journey of Wearing Glory,” are about to arrive. Plus, the new swimsuit skins for Changyi and Colete are heart-stopping, though their prices and acquisition methods have yet to be announced.
