If you've been grinding through the chaos of Onslaught Mode recently only to find your challenge counter stuck at zero, you weren't alone. A technical glitch was suppressing both the visual display of challenge progress and the distribution of rewards upon completion. For a game where character progression and gear acquisition are the lifeblood of the experience, having a primary gameplay loop fail to pay out is a major roadblock for anyone trying to strengthen their build for the Ingris continent's tougher threats.
The good news is that Nexon Games has opted for a server-side deployment. This means there is no bulky client update to download on Steam, Xbox, or PlayStation 5. To see the changes and ensure your rewards start tracking properly again, you simply need to restart the game and reconnect to the servers. It's a quick fix for a problem that could have seriously hampered the meta-progression for players focusing on high-tier challenges.
While this is a minor version jump, it's an essential one. In the world of The First Descendant, every successful mission should bring you closer to uncovering the secrets of your lineage. With the Onslaught rewards back online, you can get back to the grind without worrying about your efforts going unrecorded.
