Our multi-part shout out to the great character actors whose birthdays happen to coincide with our maintenance days continues with a spotlight on: Fred Willard! This guy is in just about everything, from Christopher Guest's mockumentaries to Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgandy to countless TV appearances on TV shows like SNL, Everybody loves Raymond and Fernwood 2 Night. Born on September 18th, 1939, he served as a soldier before beginning a career in acting.  

 

Like Leslie Nielsen, he is adept at contrasting his unassuming everyman appearance with the strangest dialogue imaginable. He's unafraid to appear in strange and small projects, following the noble Character Actor Creed of not turning down work.

Oh wow.. My suggestion for high TI is actually considered?! Nais! Thanks!  

[CharAznable]

i thought you briefly mentioned about compensation for server problem with 3x exp event? would that be this week?

[ilovemilk]

Can you add the Murica hat to Boxter list as well please.

We just received an update to the character server that should address the problem with crashing, so it'd be another week before we could make the call. 

[Aesthetisch]

Happy with the Low TI and the boxter addition, thanks!

Hi, I'm glad this skill is still blocked in maps like East Comodo just because an MVP spawns there even though you guys fixed it unknowingly with the navigation patch to no longer work on boss type monsters.

PLEASE REENABLE IT ON MVP MAPS / INSTANCES. IT DOESN'T WORK ON BOSSES, TY.

What an obnoxious monster set.

Lighthalzen Spotlight Quest: The Feathers of Fate

 

Is this quest required for the spot light event?

 

I still cannot turn in the current spot light quests which requires 4 completed quests.  The Biolabs Entrance Quest does not show up as completed.

Is there any way that you guys could minimize the lagging problem from the turn in map at least(before the fix i meant)? it seems like server can't really hold much people nor spawn lately.

What an obnoxious monster set.

 

It is kinda unfortunate, I'm not sure which monster it was, but when I did ET the cruiser & firelock floor was knocking me all over. And noxious being ghost 3 doesn't help at all. I kinda have to wonder when we'll catch a break. Last week's theme was every status effect known to man, this week seems to be make everything un-hittable. Definitely wishing it was Leib Olmais and Tengu or something...

[michaeleeli]

Is the VIP bonus staying until the EXP boost is added?

[Tkwan]

That's the firelocks, they have a knockback.

 

The noxious also suicide bomb, so we'll see many more explosions and large damage spikes.

 

On the note of this bomb:

Suicide bombing [Lv 1]

attack - HP lower than 50 percent

chase - HP lower than 50 percent

 

So they have a 5% chance that they will explode whenever they go below 50% hp, or when they begin chasing while below 50% hp.

 

I'm going to attempt using charge attack and a pneuma clip if they keep this monster set, but I honestly don't expect much out of that. It didn't work too well with the peach tree's a few weeks back, and will probably be the same with the firelocks.

Another week without TI for my lowbies </3.

[WarlockFier]

But, but.. Noxious and Firelock cards.... o.o I guess it's a give and take.

 

(there goes the price for Noxious and Firelock cards!)

[Ambur]

Medicine Bowls to mail list, please. Also, Holy Water + Scell.

[todamnhigh]

Can you have something different with the low and mid ti. the mid has a passive monster in it and it makes it hellish to do a ti. and the firelocks dont move a whole lot. if yo could swap them out as well. thanks

[meli]

VIP bonus is over this maint, right?

[Oda]

That is correct.

[Ambur]

Are TI maps gonna change finally?

[Toxn]

All TIs should be in Labyrinth Forest (Prontera Maze) 1 or 3 just for the hell of it.
