Philippine Ragnarok Online Weekly Update (6/18/08)

Hello everyone! Sorry for not being able to post much lately. I’ve been very busy at work preparing for RWC’08 and coordinating the fix for SMART BRO. Anyway, here’s the weekly Ragnarok update. As usual, feel free to leave your feedback, comments, and suggestions. I’ve already escalated last week’s concerns and as soon as I get the reply from the Ragnarok Team, I’ll post the results here. With that out of the way, let’s go on to business and discuss all the updates for this week! Medyo madami ‘to so this might be a long read.

3x Field Manual Sachet Type
We’re releasing single unit purchases of the 3x Field Manual. The introductory price is 5 PHP, and it will eventually go up to 6 PHP by next week. Take advantage of this offer and boost your characters in time for the on-going Agit Lords tournament! Here’s the official announcement on the Ragnarok website.

  1. no update yet for nameless entrance quest bug? 1 month na mula nung napatch nameless hanggang ngayon ala pa rin… T_T


  2. New Siege Bug found and abused … read on
    “More Nameless Headgear & Equipment” yet less nameless island quest fix.
    Siege Bug = Delay
    Smart Bro Connectivity Issues = Delay
    New Siege Bug = Delay
    Siege Bug: Bug Abusers suddenly pop up in the Emp Area of Woe 2 agits(not by leaping) that have Barricades and Guardians Stones still intact. The bug can be done anytime start or end of siege. How exactly? I have no idea.

    Nameless Island Quest Fix = When?
