If you’ve tried running Dekaron these past few days, you’ll notice that there are a couple of major changes: a) the server being displayed is now named “Hellion,” and that b) you can’t log in the game. That’s because the Dekaron SEA closed beta test is over. That’s right; all the 3x experience bonuses, the sweet stillness in town areas, and the absence of steal kills are over.
