77 Stages

99 At launch the dungeon ran on a ladder of ten stages; patch notes from November and December 2025 adjust monsters on stages 7 to 10 and fix a resurrection problem on stage 7 and above. On April 8, 2026, at the start of Season 3, the Korean service cut both launch Transcendence dungeons to four stages. From January 21, 2026 the two launch Transcendence dungeons carried a weekly final boss kill count of 28, which the Chapter 1 update removed on July 1, 2026.

1010

1111 Strategy write-ups describe the run as a points race: regular monsters and bosses add to a counter, and the final boss only appears once enough points are collected. Monsters that die buff their neighbours, and a debuff shared by all three bosses explodes on the player after three stacks.

1313 Boss Mechanics

1414

1515 Community strategy guides on the Korean service describe the route the same way: a wind path leads in, the left branch at the first fork holds Guard Captain Gelcos and the right branch Research Director Nazmun, and the party then drops into a large arena where it fills the point quota before Atiel appears.

1717 Guard Captain Gelcos

1818

1919 Opens with whip lashes, which is the best moment to spend stagger skills.Charges at the farthest player and leaves an electric field, then follows with a jump slam; when the gauge greys out (stagger-immune) the charge sequence is coming.A darkening area attack has to be left or survived with an invulnerability skill; its real radius is smaller than the visual.Jumps to the centre for a large central blast followed by an outer ring.

2222

2323 Fires a forward laser wave three times; melee players in front can be caught by two hits.Sweeps a rotating ground laser that the party jumps, so pulling him to a corner makes the floor easier to read.Pulling him onto the stone floor at the glide-off point resets the fight.Places time bombs, three since January 14, 2026 so that a gap is left, and puts a high-voltage zone on a random player.

2525 Atiel

2626

2727 Atiel links two players with a chain that hurts until they separate, marks and binds one player for a falling strike that others must share, and twice per run knocks everyone back from the centre while the outer floor collapses. Late in the fight Atiel starts a slice-shaped attack with a constant push that wipes the party unless Atiel is staggered in time. Full detail is on the Atiel page.

2929 Stage Traits

3030

3131 During the ten-stage era players reported Fury (분노) on stages 4 to 6, which strengthened monsters below half health, and Judgement (심판) on stages 7 to 10, which stacks with each boss hit and drops a ground attack under the player at three stacks. Stages 4 to 6 also added the Soul Binder (영혼 매듭기) monsters, whose slow and damage spread to nearby allies. How the traits map onto the current four stages has not been published.

3232

3333 Between February 25 and April 8, 2026 the ten-stage ladder asked for item level 1,600 on stages 4 to 6 and 2,200 on stages 7 to 10. Each stage carries trait effects shown in the dungeon's effect panel; on stage 7 and above the Judgement (심판) trait could kill a player without allowing an immediate resurrection until a December 24, 2025 fix.
