Philippine Ragnarok Online Weekly Update (3/5/08) [UPDATED]

Here’s the usual weekly update for Philippine Ragnarok Online. To sum everything up, we will be patching the compensation package for Baldur and we’re applying a monster-specific EXP modifier across all servers. There’s also a new MVP card in the Armory of the Gods as well as some new box set items. I also have an update on the technical problems we’ve been encountering lately for Valkyrie & Baldur. Let’s get down to business.

RAGNAROK FLORA BONANZA
This is pretty straightforward. We’re applying a 2x EXP modifier on all PLANT RACE monsters. This will last all the way up to April 2, 2008! That’s almost 1 whole month. If you combine this with the Field Manual and the local EXP then that’s a lot. To help people from Valkyrie and Valhalla, we’re also releasing the Caesar’s Sword which is the nightmare of environmentalists. This is also a good time to get the Scorpion and Gajomart Cards which will boost EXP as well.

Caesar’s Sword (New Armory of the Gods item)
- A one-handed sword that looks like a pair of scissors. Pierce the defense of plant monsters when used.
- 25% additional damage on plant monsters.
- Attack Strength: 140
- 4000 Rok Pts

Scorpion Card
- Add 20% more damage on Plant Monsters.
- Slot: Weaponry

Gajomart Card
- Receive 10% more experience points from Plant monsters.
- Slot: Shoes

DOPPELGANGER & NEW BOXED ITEMS
Doppelganger is the official new MVP Boss Card for sale at the Armory of the Gods. It’s actually very affordable at just 350 pesos. Other than the new boss card, we’re also throwing in new box sets of the holy and shadow scrolls. Here are the detailed item descriptions:

Doppelganger Card
- Enable to fast-attack anytime
- Compound on: Weapon
- 7000 Rok Points

Medium Life Potion 10 Box
- A small bottle containing the sap of the Yggdrasil Tree. It is effective in healing wounds.
- Heals 7% of Maximum HP in every 4 seconds for 10 minutes
- 360 Rok Pts. (18 Php)

Shadow Armor Scroll 30 Box
- Box containing 30 Shadow Armor Scrolls
- Gives shadow property to a character for 30 minutes.
- 2500 Rok Pts (125 Php)

Holy Armor Scroll 30 Box
- Box containing 30 Holy Armor Scrolls
- Gives holy property to a character for 30 minutes.
- 2700 Rok Pts. (135 Php)

BALDUR EXP MODIFIER
Baldur will be on 3x EXP/2x DROP until the technical problems with the siege are resolved. This will go hand-in-hand with the item mall sale and the monster summoning events during siege time. We will also be running the monster summoning on Valkyrie starting next week since they’re technically in the same boat.

COMMUNITY CONCERNS
I’ll be posting two community concerns. One for today which will focus on Valkyrie/Baldur and another one tomorrow which will address most of the issues raised in previous weekly updates. Gravity will be sending another team of developers next week so expect a few maintenances every now and then. They will be here to focus on the guild/party bugs as well as the zone disconnections. Hopefully we can fix everything within the next two weeks.

You can verify all of the information posted here at the Ragnarok Website.

UPDATE: RAGNAROK WOE: SECOND EDITION ON SAKRAY
Testing for Ragnarok WoE: Second Edition starts today when the servers go up. Sakray will also be on a whooping 50x EXP to give you guys an easier time in leveling your characters so you can easily get in the action in just a few days of leveling. I’ll be making a WoE SE post later in the afternoon so watch out for that one.

  11. Masyado naman kayo nag fofocus sa baldur and valkyrie. madami din affected ng bugs sa ibang servers! makinig naman kayo sa mga players.


  12. Nice marketing strategy .. 2x EXP MOD for Plant Races tapos yung pinalabas na mga cards are for plants so for sure meron na naman ma-uto! dito .. Anyway, nabawasan na naman ang thrill sa MVP hunt kasi imagine DOPPLE card for 350php nalang. Bibili nalang ako compare sa magpakahirap ka ilang months + the pagod whole day. Naku sayang nga pala yung mga icepick[1] at infil[1] /gg


  13. @Aile: Gumamit ka ng Stats Calculator tpos ilagay mo ung dopel card para malaman mo kung ilan talaga, ako nakita ko na 4aspd lng dagdag ng dopel pero may pakinabang na rin kaya nila sell yan ng 350php dahil d namn gaano kagandahan yang card na yan e. Madaming tao nasasabik dyan pero d namn nila alam exact na magagawa ng card na yan.


  14. atlast.. wauks… 1 more thingy sa baldur problem; kahapon 2 maps nasira.. ang masama duon ehh save point ng guilds ang nasira… i hope maayos na to as soon as posible. and may napapansin ako, try nyo mag online before mag start ang siege…. biglang umuulan ng announcement ng nabasag na castle ganun din pag matatapos na.. mahirap i explain.. try nyo nalang tignan.

    Thanks nga rin pala dun sa mga tumulong para malabas yung 4th seal sa Valkyrie… nakakuha rin me Icepick isa nga lang. eheh sa uuliitin


  20. Bakit baldur lang meron exp mode compensation?

    I think the LU is fully aware na eversince walang matinng seige and valkyrie. Even now ganon pa rin.

    Dapat sana the valkyrie wll same compensaton sa baldur.

    By the way meron daw summer sale. Yon lang ba ang ma offer ng LU na summer sale?
