The official FAQ explains Raid rankings and the Arena Ether Shop, while the September 17 announcement lists a new Arena refresh control and a daily limit of 10 entries each for Raid and World Boss. It still does not give universal unlock requirements. If a mode is unavailable, record whether it is locked, missing or failing after selection.
CAUTION / The page does not invent an unlock level that the current sources do not prove.
CAUTION / A server event can look like a progression lock; preserve the time and exact message.
Do this in order
- Identify the exact mode and whether its entry is visible, locked, missing or loading.
- Record the displayed prerequisite or error word for word.
- Compare your current progression with a recent recorded player example without assuming it is the rule.
- Restart only after preserving the state; check official notices and current discussion reports.
- Escalate a persistent account-specific mismatch with screenshots and progression details.
Begin with what the official page proves
New Normal Soft lists Alliance Raid, World Boss and Arena on the Steam store. Its FAQ says Raid Alliance rankings sum the damage of each Alliance's top 100 members. The same FAQ places the Ether Shop under Battlefield > Arena, says Machina can come from Raid ranking rewards or that shop and remain usable for seven days, and says new World Boss or Raid seasons provide another chance to earn ranking rewards such as Pets or Wings. The September 17 announcement adds an Arena opponent refresh button and caps daily Raid and World Boss entries at 10 each. Check the current client for those controls; none of these notices establishes a universal unlock level.
A player video title shows World Boss unlocked on one account, which can help locate the interface and compare visible progression. It cannot prove that the same step unlocks the mode for every class, region or patch. This guide keeps that distinction instead of converting a video moment into a rule table.
Classify the access state
A visible locked tile with a prerequisite is a progression state. A visible entry that fails after selection is a runtime or service state. A missing entry can be navigation, account, region or version. A loading spinner or disconnected screen can be a server or network symptom. These categories produce different next actions, so record the one you actually see.
If the interface displays a level, quest, alliance or schedule, preserve the exact wording. Do not translate it into a stronger rule. If it shows no reason, capture the surrounding screen and current progression. The absence of a label is itself useful evidence for a support report.
- Locked with prerequisite
- Visible but disabled
- Opens then errors
- Missing entirely
- Loading or disconnected
Rule out a temporary service event
Check official announcements and the current Steam discussion list for multiple reports at the same time. Several same-day reports can indicate a wider issue, but they still need an official notice or recovery observation before the site labels a service state. Avoid resetting progression, leaving an alliance or spending currency to troubleshoot a possible outage.
A simple restart can be reasonable after the state is recorded. Reinstalling is a much larger step and should not be the first reaction to a server-side mode. If other game areas work, include that contrast in the ticket.
What to send support
Name the mode, date and local time, region if visible, progression state, alliance state where relevant, exact message and the last action before failure. Add a screenshot that includes the whole mode panel rather than a cropped error alone. Never include passwords or payment details.
This page will add an unlock rule only when it can be traced to official text or reproduced across current evidence. Until then, its job is to stop a locked feature, account mismatch and server event from being treated as the same problem.
Quick answers
When does World Boss unlock?
The current launch sources checked here do not establish a reliable universal unlock requirement. Use the visible prerequisite in your client and record it for verification.
How are Raid Alliance rankings calculated?
The official FAQ says the top 100 members' damage is combined for each Alliance, then Alliances are ranked by total damage.
Where is the Ether Shop?
The official FAQ places it under Battlefield > Arena, in the Ether Shop tab at the top.
How many Raid or World Boss entries can I use daily?
The September 17 update announcement says Raid and World Boss are each capped at 10 daily entries. Confirm the remaining-entry display in your current client before planning a run.
Do I need an Alliance for Alliance Raid?
The official description ties the activity to alliance members, but exact participation requirements should be confirmed in the current interface.
Is Arena unavailable a server problem?
Possibly, but first distinguish a visible progression lock from an entry that errors or loads indefinitely.
