School is in session at Red Leaf High! This new premium dungeon allows you to earn Friendship points with four NPCs in order to earn the ability to purchase new equipable stat items: totems.

Requirement: Lv.10 or above, solo only
NPC Boss Kumi will be in most towns. Talk to her to be sent to her homeroom class.
The totems of Joe Joe, Hermoninny, Little Dragon, and Ika each provide different kinds of stats.
You can venture deeper into the school for free once per day. Subsequent entries each day will require the use of a Red Leaf High Entry Key, available for 400 NX in the Cash Shop. Each key will be consumed after one use.
You’ll be able to choose which of the Four Pillars of Heaven you want to apply earned Friendship Points toward.
There are tons of daily repeatable quests your new schoolmates have for you to earn Friendship Points.
As the applied Friendship Points accumulate, the ability to purchase totems for the corresponding Pillar in the Four Pillars of Heaven Shop in the homeroom.
Each totem is a unique equipped item, so you won’t be able to have two of the same totem equipped at the same time. For example, you can have a Mighty Joe Joe Totem equipped at the same time as a Golden Joe Joe Totem, but you can’t have two Mighty Joe Joe Totems equipped at the same time.
All of the totems are untradeable.
A totem UI has been added to your equipment inventory for you to view which you have equipped. Up to 3 can be equipped at once.

Totem Info:

Joe Joe: DEX
Hermoninny: INT
Little Dragon: STR
Ika: LUK
There is also a special type of Boss Kumi totem for each category.

Oh, Nexon actually fleshed out the details. I'm used to them being quick and simple about that stuff.

The School is insane EXP... I ran 3 times and did the quests and got 50-70% something at lvl 195-196.

That's how they get you to buy more keys~

SON OF A B-

So I HAVE to spend at least 10 mil for a tiny stat boost? This is one hell of a meso sink...

Meh.

Unexcited at prospect of spending more mesos and time than I have just to get good stats. Might be I'll check it out and get a small totem from Hermoninny, just because it's a hilarious name/reference... or maybe I'll sit this one out completely.
