The King Legacy dungeon system has officially replaced the old Raid (Golden Arena) feature in the game’s latest update. This change marks a significant overhaul in how players farm gems, acquire rare items, and progress through different Seas. With a new multi-floor format, distinct dungeon mechanics per Sea, and exclusive rewards, understanding how dungeons work is crucial for both new and veteran players.
This guide covers everything you need to know about the new dungeon system in King Legacy—including dungeon locations in each Sea, how rewards scale, and what makes it different from the Raid system it replaced.
What Is the Dungeon System in King Legacy?
Dungeons are a new PvE challenge mode that allows up to six players to fight through five floors of enemies, culminating in boss battles and valuable drops. Unlike the older Raid system, which used a wave-based format and moved players to a separate server, dungeons now take place within your current server, streamlining the gameplay experience.
Each Sea in the game has its own dungeon, and each dungeon is tailored to specific level ranges and reward pools.
Dungeon Locations by Sea
Here’s where to find each dungeon depending on which Sea you’re in:
Sea 1 Dungeon (Level ≤ 2250)
-
Location: From the first island (Japan Island), move toward the 10 o’clock direction.
-
A small island with a central dungeon building marks the spot.
Sea 2 Dungeon (Level ≤ 4000)
-
Location: Near the main port.
-
From the harbor, face the sea and move toward 9–10 o’clock to reach the dungeon island.
Sea 3 Dungeon (Level 4000–4900)
-
Location: From the starting island The Unearthly, head to the right (around 3 o’clock).
-
Continue forward until you reach the dungeon island.
-
If you’re Level 4800+, you can use the Track Quest feature for automatic guidance.
Note: Max level players can still join any dungeon to help others, but will not receive gems in Sea 3.
How Dungeons Work – Floor Structure and Format
-
5 total floors per dungeon.
-
Early floors (1–4) feature mobs or mini-bosses.
-
Final floor (5) always includes a major boss encounter.
-
Up to 6 players per session.
-
Dungeons occur on the same server you’re playing on—no separate instance or teleportation.
This structure removes the waiting time and connection issues some players experienced with the older Raid system.
