An Instance (also known as Memorial Dungeon) is a type of dungeon in which a specific copy ("instance") is created for each individual party attempting to enter. As such, the server requires a small time period to create the instance, and it can only be used until a certain time limit before it is destroyed. Therefore, each party has the instance to themselves.

Characteristics

  • They involve one-way (no going backwards) progressions in an NPC-narrated quest.
  • They require players to be in a Party, and are "created" uniquely for each party. One party (its members) cannot enter the instance of another party.
  • They have time limits in which the quest progression must be completed. If the quest is not completed, the instance will be destroyed, and players sent back to their Save Points.
  • They (may) have cooldown periods, where a player must wait after the time period ends before creating/entering a new instance.
  • They do not allow the skill Teleport (or Fly Wings). In a solo party, the player will be sent back to their Save Point when logged out more than 5 minutes inside an instance.
  • They may restrict certain other skills depending on the instance.
  • They are restricted to characters of certain Base Levels.
  • Some instances have an access quest that must be done before the players can start entering it.
  • Instance cooldown only applies to members that enter the instance.
  • Bringing Token Of Siegfried is highly suggested.
  • Players cannot re-enter the instance if the players happen to:
    • Exit the instance before the instance is done.
    • Died and then respawned.
    • Everyone inside the instance has disconnected for more than 5 minutes.
