As your World Level increases, enemies become more challenging. The loot from chests, bosses, and domains also becomes more valuable.

According to the developers, reaching the new World Level boosts the levels of normal enemies, elite foes, and bosses by about 10 levels.

In exchange, the rewards are significantly enhanced, with bosses at this level guaranteed to drop at least three character level-up materials.

To upgrade to the new World Level, Travelers must reach Adventure Rank 58.
