Gaming: Ragnarok Update 4/4/07

I’ll probably be busy the whole day so I don’t think I can sneak in a good post or two during the afternoon or even the evening. The marketing team will be re-evaluating our annual operating plan and we even have a morning meeting with our CEO, Jane Walker. So… I’ll be proactive and post my regular pre-maintenance update several hours in advance. Lol. Read on if you want to find out what will happen for pRO in tomorrow’s maintenance.

HYPERMART UPDATE
We will be selling the Evolved Orc Hero Helm at an introductory price of 6000 Rok Points. We will also be selling the Evolved Pipe at an introductory price of 3000 Rok Points. After two weeks, both items will be sold for 1000 Rok Points more. Take note that both items will only be tradable during the first two weeks. There is a high possibility that they will be item locked after. This setting was implemented by Gravity and we are still trying to convince them to change their policy. For more information on both items, you can check my previous post on Ragnarok Online Premium Items.

GTB ACTIVATION
This is still in the works. I can’t give you guys a 100% guarantee that this will be implemented on April 4, 2007. However, I can give you assurance that the GTB will be activated by next week’s mainteanance at the very latest.

NEW SIEGE EVENT & IN-GAME EVENTS
We will be posting the newest siege event series and some other in-game events that you guys will definitely enjoy! We have a MVP challenge for guilds that think they’re the best boss hunters and we also have a PVP/siege event that has very nice prizes at stake.

HALO-HALO & EASTER EGG EVENT
Both of these events will be activated on Wednesday. You can check my previous post on the Halo-halo event guide for reference. I’ll probably work on the Easter Egg event guide early Wednesday or late Tuesday, depending on the work load.

That’s probably it for this Wednesday. If something else pops up, I’ll be sure to post again. Good luck to everyone and more power to all of you Rok Stars! Btw, if you didn’t notice, I’ve already posted the latest update on the Server Merge. Click HERE to read the article.

ROK ON!

    Is there anychance that the angeling hat would not be item locked? I want my other characters to wear it @_@ Kahit account lock nalang okay na >.> basta pwede ikafra. Sam goes to futrue headgears na baka ilock @_@


  4. Wauks … suggestion … snipers these days are currently fading … I hope that said event may be a place wherein I can showcase our snipers at least hehehe Perhaps an MVP sniper tourney?

    Rules: They’re snipers so anything goes equips, items, etc *not including charge attack but it doesn’t work on boss monsters anyways so no restrictions indeed*

    Edit … maybe 1 restriction … Emperor’s Crown hehehehe

    So snipers are best when someone’s tanking so I ask you … what do you prefer?

    Scenario 1 (Free for all snipers) : A GM tanks Amon or Amon is immobile … snipers DS til Amon dies … the MVP is considered the winner …

    BTW Why Amon? : Amon has above 1m hp with that it would be easy for that amount of hp to be shared by many and at the same time the lead of the winning sniper will be evident because as the dps(dps … it’s not only in the build its on the tips of your fingers my fellow snipers ) is higher his lead gets bigger unlike where in if moony were to be MVP

    Buffs of snipers will depend on their “diskarte” hypermart scrolls and all ^_^

    Scenario 2 (Partied with a priest) : Priest + Sniper vs not amon but preferably something easier? Timed event … best time wins

    Possible Candidates for Scenario 2 MVP : Bapho , Eddga , if others would agree … Drake , easiest and fastest … Moony, TGen , DSL , Incantation Samurai , Dracula,GTB,OH,Osi,OL

    Prize ? lol : All I can think of is a GM forged over up rudra’s bow or balista with the winners name on it + 10m? or possibly bloody branches

    Wauks I know this is something far from happening but look at it this way snipers are limited to status infliction during siege … in MVP ing they’re beaten by biochems esp ***s and sinX’s and in pvp if the sniper has no vit he’s killed by the sinX … if he has vit he’s killed by the creator.

    I know this suggestions seems to revolve around snipers too much but don’t we snipers deserve an event like this?

    Anyways I hope this gave you some ideas. Thanks for reading


  5. halatang sniper ang char mo ah so self fish


  6. @Sniper7
    That sounds like an excellent idea. Maybe we can have per-class tournaments? However we will have to put that off until the Server Merge. At least mas kakayanin ng GMs i-run yun kasi we will be dealing with less servers.


  7. @Wauks

    Still no update on the “Memory of Ragnarok” CDs?

    Been telling my mom to be always ready to go to LUG! office once the CDs are released XD


  8. Yeah I guess I’m selfish /e4

    @Code
    ^_^ hehehe I’m just really bummed about the sniper class these days. My sniper and I really have been through a lot but now /… i’d tell the whole story but this isn’t my blog :lol:

    @Wauks
    Yeah I can wait and yeah the per class tournies really seems like a big load for you guys so yeah let’s put that off for now and get focused on the server merge.(What’s with me and the word yeah today) Thanks for taking the time to read my post 0_0
    That indeed is the reason why you are favored by many …. you really take the time to read reply and make things happen. Thanks again.


  9. it may seem out of this world…is there a possibility that a character migration be implemented….^_~


  10. Bunny helm, anyone? Haha!

  11. waukeen,

    does LU also plan to put cards on the hypermarket? sana meron din nito…. what you think?


  12. ask ko lng kung magkakaroon din ng hypermart item na pwede mag stat reset… big help para sa mga sabog stats jan hehe…


  13. wauks! how bout Thor ? ung sa rok points po namin, sabi nyo last week na un eh, tapos wala nanamn, sana bukas marestore na ung rok points namin sa thor.


  14. Ey!!!

    They killed Tristan in kRO! Amp!

    http://gmtristan.blogspot.com/2007/04/tristan-is-dead-omg.html

    Check it out! Hahahaha! Enjoy!


  15. Magiging private server na tayo pag may cards na sa hypermart. >.


  16. Quick note lang, hindi niyo ina-announce kung ano ang duration ng siege. :P Para talagang taranta sila. *lol*


  17. He needs a Queen to make Tristarians


  18. Odin and Iris nalang magmerge.. pra equal ung mga servers.. msmdmi kc tao ng iris kaysa sa fenrir.. kwawa nmn kung iris sarah at lydia..

    ung rOk On -> \m/_


  19. @Wauks
    In regards to Class Tourney event, it would be fun if you put up a class vs. class guild war.. of course with rules that would be fair for all…


  20. Bad news, the pipe and the orc hero helm will NOT be tradable even for two weeks. *rants about koreans for the nth time* >.<; Hayz. Anyway, yung GTB din pala will be re-activated for 1 month, so to everyone who has, enjoy!


  21. Chief……………………. EXP mod naman summer na ! ! ! !


  22. Please Account Lock n lang para magamit ng ibang characters ko saka para di makadagdag s madaming bitbitin pag siege……. GO CHIEF KAYA MO YAN………..


  23. @Crystal

    at least if there are cards at hypermarket, it will profit the LU comapny x_x but then again, i think they should have but the uniqueness is, they should think of a “balanced” card attributes.

    @LU IT Team
    cards like GM (Vanguards name) cards? more of like a Final Fantasy 8 (PS1) cards… hehe (maybe for collection?) or when it is in inventory (not compounded), it will cast something or add sp when killed a certain monsters or add stats when hit just those kind of cards.


  24. sana dhil extended maintenance. malagay na rin ung mga prizes nung mga nanalo sa raffle nung mga BTA


  25. Uhhh, regarding GTB. Shouldn’t you disable it in Sakray since RPC is being held there already?


  26. tagal ah, 3 pm na wla pa RO, kala ko ba 2? o mxdo lng advance relo ko d2?


  27. Hi guys,

    I just checked with the GM Team and IT, they’re bringing it up in a few minutes. Nagkaproblema lang daw with the item mall so they had to fix it first. T.T


  28. Wauks,

    would GTB be activated sa Sakray? e RPC ngayon dun di ba?


  29. Walang reply ~_~


  30. Hi Variance,

    Wala naman ata GTB sa Sakray. XD

    I’ll have it checked na rin. Pero if ever there is, it would be activated since konti lang naman, unlike in the main servers wherein sobrang dami talaga meron.


  31. Not to be much of a whiner pero wouldn’t it be a humongous advantage for those “few” na meron?


  32. Hmm, mas maganda kung scrolls na lang parang ung elemental scrolls na pwede imbue sa weapon (*lol* Diablo II iniisip ko) temporary effects lang.

    Kung card siguro hmm.. lahat kasi iniisip ko for weapon or accessory para hindi msyado maging parang Marc card na talagang need. Yung tipong for perks lang. Uhm, gain a random amount of exp everytime you kill a poring? Parang ganun sa acce :D


  33. I think you can chalk it up to hunting and luck Variance. The only way to get a GTB in Sakray would be to hunt for the card. Even with the modified drop rate, that’s still a very low chance. So it would really take a lot of dedication, will, and luck to get a card.

    Lastly, I also believe that if it is just one person I’m sure there are a lot of ways to take him out? SinX? Biochemist? Monk? Kayang-kaya yan. :-) Having led my guild to 3 RPC campaigns, I can honestly say that tactics and not boss cards is the ultimate factor for success.


  34. uhm., ask lang po.. pwde po b manyari ung maglipat ng charcters from one server to other?? pls paki sagot naman toh…


  35. kc i have charcter in sarah and in fenrir.., e saktong d po nagmerge.., may nakapagsabi lang dn po kc sakin.. sna pwde..
