Patch extraction info was posted by haha for v.70 on his forums, soon afterwards his site went down. leaving only word from the few people who got to see the data.
CWKPQ goggles upgraded (might be gacha only) Item description: "Description: Strange eyewear that allows vision in multiple dimensions.
A short inscription states: "Who says the goggles do nothing?"
Hsalf's hat: (CWKPQ - might be gacha only) Cake boss is back (in some type of mini dungeon/event dungeon) there are 23 new quests large cash shop sale coming Quest UI changes (more info in game for quest help, possible tie to monster book) MW30 from HT (though may not be "released" in this patch, may mean were getting JMS update? mw20 = zakum, mw30 = ht/PB)
quest to get PQ boss cards info: "You can "buy" Special cards once a day with Maple Leaves. the first
boss is Mano, and it took (in KMS) 500 leaves. Then Stumpy was 1,000,
Deo was 1,500, etc. The amount needed for each boss went up by 500.
You
do this via the guy Tienk in Lith Harbor. You can get King Slime and
the other PQ boss cards in this way (Every special card except those
two event mobs I believe.) The only catch is that you must be at least
within 10 levels of the boss to buy it. So, to get King Slime you'd
have to be at least 30."
