Ateneo De Manila University, one of the premiere colleges in the Philippines, is seriously considering offering a Game Development Course.

For all servers, we have two NPC-based events - the Halloween Quest Events and the Beer Festival Events. The Beer Festival is a bit [...]

Philippine Ragnarok Online added the Gunslinger and Ninja job classes in Episode XIV: Hugel. I honestly believe that both these classes are underrated and they can both be huge forces to reckon with in WoE, PVP, and PVM. I’m sure that Valkyrie players have encountered Ninjas and Orc Village already and you’ll agree with me [...]

Last September, Philippine Ragnarok Online patched Episode 11.1: Rachel. We’re currently preparing for the next major patch which is Episode 11.2: Veins (Beinz). I’ve been going through the developer notes for the next patch and it looks like that 11.2 will again change the meta game of Philippine Ragnarok Online. There are so many new [...]

Leveling is a drag especially if you rely heavily on SP-based skills. It’s really sad sitting down waiting for your SP to recover, hehe. I remember during the Beta days, Blacksmiths didn’t have enough SP to be constantly on Power Thrust and Adrenaline Rush. We’d have like three to five bursts and I’d have to [...]
