Gaming: Halo-halo in Ragnarok!
When I said that one of my goals in pRO is to make it more localized and more Pinoy, I wasn’t kidding. We’ve already seen the People Power and Ati-atihan events. Both events are very Filipno, and I’m pretty sure that most of you guys have heard of ‘em. However, it doesn’t stop there! Now you will something even more familar! You’ll see this plastered all over the country in Chowking’s billboards and commercials. It is with great pride and pleasure that I present to you the latest PINOY event of Ragnarok Online…

Hindi lang po CHOWKING ang may halo-halo pag summer! In the next few weeks, you will be able to make halo-halos in Midgard! WTF!? Hahahaha! The quest is pretty simple. Here is what you need to do!

Talk to Aling Razon (jawaii 182, 169) and tell her that you want to help her make a Halo-Halo. The she will ask you to bring 1 Kaong, 1 Gulaman, 1 Leche Flan, 1 Ube, 1 Jam, 1 Sago, 1 Langka, 1 Sweet Beans, 1 Sweet Banana, and 1 Macapuno. The ingredients will be dropped by pre-determined monsters. When the quest is activated in the main worlds, I’ll be more than happy to post which monster drops what. Once you complete the quest, she will give you 5 pcs. of Halo-halo.
Hope you guys enjoy this event. I’m not sure yet though when it will come out. Probably sometime in the middle of April. I’ll post one more new NPC event tomorrow (Tuesday). We still have the Pinoy Rok Star, Easter, and the April Fools events. By the way, just in case you missed it, you can find the guide for the Ragnarok Full Poring Alchemist Event Guide in my previous post. Cheers and Rok on people!

I forgot to say pala that this will be implemented on all servers. There ya’ go. :D
March 27th, 2007 at 12:44 am
^Aha, forgot to post that in RB… :P
That item reminds me of the heat, its soooo damn hot these past days :(
March 27th, 2007 at 1:39 am
wauks
as my suggestion in RB:
sana pde cya i-upgrade. adding ice cream on it, then making the lasting effect to be 15mins instead of 10mins.

Hahaha! Aling Razon! I wonder if the Razons of Pampanga will appreciate this or maybe charge you for using their name. Hehe. :P But they really make good halo-halo.

pde bang gawin yan paulit ulit?
March 27th, 2007 at 7:55 am
/heh sana my guide dinung mga ingredients :D
March 27th, 2007 at 8:57 am
Kuya Wauks, walang upsize diyan sa halo-halo?
at napansin ko din, bat hindi kailangan ng ice cubes diyan? eh dapat kailangan yun diba? para lumamig? =p
March 27th, 2007 at 11:16 am
Maybe the upsize can be a follow-up quest, hehe. Anyway, we more localized NPC events coming up soon. Hopefully you guys will enjoy them as much as we have enjoyed making ‘em! Also we’re currently finalizing the mechanics for the Headgear Making contest, so you’d better watch out for that one. :)

Chief, does it stack on stat enhancing foods (i.e. +8/+9/+10 foods) ?
Thanks!
March 27th, 2007 at 2:01 pm
bat wala ice cream sa toppings.. XD
March 27th, 2007 at 3:04 pm
@Grams
Yup it stacks with food items. So you can actually get up to +13 on one stat o_o;
March 27th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
Halo-halo with Ice Cream FTW!!! XD
I so miss the Philippines already… T_T
Except for the traffic and pollution of course XD
March 27th, 2007 at 4:04 pm

March 27th, 2007 at 6:25 pm

March 27th, 2007 at 10:06 pm
We’re still finalizing the mechanics. Probably it will be announced after Holy Week. :)
March 27th, 2007 at 11:40 pm
There’s no Holy Week event in pRO?
March 28th, 2007 at 8:19 am
Woot! +13 cool /heh
I love Razon lmao
March 28th, 2007 at 11:21 am
wow! That’s cool! I haven’t played RO lately but to have a “halo-halo” in-game??? wahahaa! *installs RO*
March 29th, 2007 at 1:37 am
Nice. Just a few questions. What monsters drop each item? And, after the event duration (ilang weeks nga ba?), will the halo-halo still work (add +3 to all stats) or madidisable na yung effect nung item?
March 29th, 2007 at 6:58 pm
hmm… is this going to be released in sakray or is it already in sakray?
damn… +13
halo halo with dragon cocktail. :hungry: >:3
April 4th, 2007 at 9:19 am
yummy +3 stats! Then may upsize pa? can’t wait!

This is a very frustrating quest. Ang baba ng drop rate ng mga needed items sa halo-halo. Feeling ko card ang hinahanap ko. Mauubos ang 8 hour load dito bago makumpleto mga items! To think di pa ito puwedeng ulitin. Sana normal drop lamang itong items for halo-halo. Mas madaling bumili at kumain na lang ng tunay na halo-halo! :)

I made 200pcs. But I got so disappointed after testing Halo-halo.
Stack with food? Lies. When you use a +10 to stat food then you use Halo-halo, vice versa, you don’t get +13 to stats. For example you use a STR +10 food item, then you use Halo-halo, you only get +10 to the stat. All stats are given +3 except STR. If you use the Halo-halo first, that’s +3 to all stats, then you use your STR +10 food item, all you get is +7 not +10. This sucks. >.

I love this quest. I made 30 but I didn’t use any of them. They’re in my ref -este- my Kafra storage along with my 6-pack of Coke and People Power Bandana and assorted Kalabasa.
