Cabal's latest update, Soul and Siena, made its way to the local gaming scene yesterday, July 14. With the latest patch came a new dungeon, Altar of Siena which is one for high level characters to explore.
Altar of Siena is located right smack in the middle of Mutant Forest and entry to the dungeon is limited to high level characters, specifically level 135 and above. Veteran Cabal players already know how difficult the level 125 dungeons are, namely Forbidden Temple B2F and Forbidden Island. Even level 140 characters have a hard time finishing those two aforementioned dungeons, so you guys probably have an idea just how tough the Altar of Siena might be.
For those who have already braved the new dungeon and successfully finished it, it must have been quite a fulfillment to do so. The dungeon boasts of its exclusivity as the only location where the Sig Metal Armors can be looted, pretty much like the Forbidden Island wherein Sig Metal Weapons are dropped.
For those who have attempted to enter the Altar of Siena yet failed to complete it, here is an idea of how fighting the Final Boss feels like.
Cabal Episode 3 Soul and Siena has already graced Korea and Europe last week, June 16. The Cabal players of each country have been more than enthusiastic in exploring the new game additions, especially the new dungeon, Altar of Siena B1F.

As of this moment, there is still no complete dungeon guide for Altar of Siena. Cabalists are still trying out the dungeon (it has only been a week, folks) and testing every possible way to make it easier to finish. Perhaps a few more tips and tricks and eventually someone from Korea or Europe can finally come up with a decent step by step guide to help other players finish this new dungeon.
For now, let us settle for these cool Altar of Siena Video Guides:
The title received for finishing Altar of Siena is "God/Goddess Of Unholy Force Cores".
It is also noteworthy that in the dungeon, players may receive an attack boost (+1000ATK) from a boss. A boss can give you buffs or debuffs - means he can lower or increase your attack,defense,and other attributes, as seen in the image below.
Also included herein are a few of the drops players have so far looted from the dungeon.
Altar of Siena Drop List (so far):
Force Core Highest Upgrade Core High Upgrade Core Highest Extortion Bracelet+4 Red Osmium weapons and armors Vampiric Earring +6.
This looks good. Looted from dungeon mobs
SIGmetal Visor(WA) no slot Epaulet of V +4 (I have no idea what this is, sorry. It was abbreviated as EOV+4. Please leave a comment if you do) Mithril Crystal no slot Bracelet of Sage +4 bos+4 lvl 99 stuff 1 slot clean SigMetal Greaves WA 1 slot clean Earring of Guard +6 Earring of Guard +5 Force Regeneration Earring +6 Bracelet of Fighter +6 Mana Absorb Ring +3
So in a nutshell, the good ones players are supposed to loot from the dungeon are the following:
EOX+8 (X=any value) SIGMetal armors and epaulettes +5 jewelries/accessories
Unfortunately, there are certain issues regarding the new patch, especially those that deal with the inventory sub-password. The system recognizes the sub-password as invalid when one checks on his safety inventory in towns regardless of whether punched in the correct sub-password. This has led to several accounts being blocked. Game developers and local country distributors are already trying to fix the bug.
Let's hope the full dungeon guide, as well as the bug-free patch, will be available before it hits the Philippines.
