The Homunculus is a special monster that can only be obtained through crafting at the Craft Building. Like regular monsters, it possesses various types (Attack and Support), as well as various battle skills and passive abilities. It can also be evolved and awakened. Unique to the Homunculus is the ability for players to choose its elemental attribute, its name, as well as its skills.
Summoning the Homunculus requires various crystals which can be obtained only from the elemental rift dungeons in the Rift of Worlds. Players can have both the Support and the Attack Homunculus, but only 1 of each.
To summon the Homunculus, players are required to gather the following:
Once enough materials are gathered, players can summon the Homunculus at the Craft Building and then give its name (consists of 15 letters and signs but no spaces).
Currently, only one Homunculus of each type may be summoned at once by any player. This means a player cannot possess two attack type or two support type Homunculus at once. As only the attack and support type exist, that means only two Homunculus may be possessed.
Additionally, there are restrictions to what areas a Homunculus may be used. Currently, they cannot be used in Arena or Guild Wars defensive teams, nor can they be used in real-time arena.
Once players have the required materials and have summoned the Homunculus, players will be required to immediately to choose a name for it. Once summoned, the Homunculus will automatically default to being a Fire monster (Attack type) or Light monster (Support type). To change its element, players need only to evolve its first skill to the elemental equivalent desired. Should players ever wish to change the name of the Homunculus, players can purchase a Homunculus Name Change Ticket in the Shop for 150 Crystals.
Unlike regular monsters, players can evolve the Homunculus' skills to a more powerful version.
The Homunculus will start with the following skills:
