New Continent - Shaduwar
Shaduwar was recently discovered by an explorer from Madrigal. Since it's discovery, virtually every adventurer in Madrigal has been visiting this wondrous new continent to uncover it's mysteries. Should you wish to explore this vast new continent, you can do so by flying from Northern Darkon 1 (Near the Gouthan Mountains) straight north. You will see a new path is available just over the mountain range there.
Instanced Dungeons
With the new continent of Shaduwar comes all new instanced Dungeons! There are 2 dungeons located in Shaduwar. Non-master players should visit the Aminus Dungeon located in the northern area of Shaduwar while master and higher level players should venture towards the Cursed Aminus Dungeon which is located near the lake in the center of Shaduwar. Make sure you're in a party!
Safe Upgrading System
FlyFF has introduced a new way to upgrade your items. Visit BoboChan in Flaris to try out the new Safe Upgrading System. You can now 'Auto-upgrade' your items by placing all upgrade materials in the menu and setting the desired upgrade level. In addition to this, if you decide to use the 'Old fashioned way' of upgrading your items, a warning message will appear should you neglect to use a Protect Scroll.

Pro tip: Hold SHIFT and double click an item to fill up an entire row.
New Masquerpets!
Several new masquerpets have been seen, roaming about both in the new dungeons and on the continent of Shaduwar itself. The new Monsters are all level 105+ and are, of course, equipped with bad attitudes. As a result of these new masquerpets, the levels of masquerpets in Darkon 3 and the office quests related to them have been adjusted.
New Weapons
2 new sets of weapons for all second job classes have been added to the game; Vampire Weapons and Ancient Weapons. These weapons can be found by venturing deep into the Aminus Dungeons.
Wings!
New flying transports have arrived! Who needs a board, bike or broom when you have WINGS?!
