Here is my current worksheet for what we are working on.

  • VIP dungeon Overlook Water Dungeon will be set to VIP only
  • Overlook Water dungeon will get 5 quests put in place, each giving exp and a special reward. Finishing all 5 will give an additional reward that we think players will like! Inside the dungeon when you get your exp reward you will get your item reward too.
  • Valk 4th God seal will be updated to actually work correctly on all servers.
  • Seal quests will have their quest journal informations.
  • HD Refiner will have a "count down" that tells you how many attempts he sees you have remaining, this should help players keep track to avoid being at a too low upgrade and run out.
  • There will be some Kafra shop updates with new items!
  • You may want to hold onto any slotting advertisements you may have.. hint hint.
  • Kafra Gals and Kafra Refine NPCs will all be found on Floor 2 of Eden Group and Payon. (All prontera/Juno Kafras except Dye shop will removed)
  • Yggdrasil will get the 50/100 seal status like Valkyrie.
  • 10x Boxes of HD Elunium added for 100 pt You can trade the boxes
  • 10x Boxes of HD Oridecon added for 100pt you can trade the boxes
  • 10x Box of Gym Pass added for 500pt you can trade the boxes
  • Town adventure box contains 10 of all the dungeon and town scrolls for 200 pts
  • May Lucky Box added
  • Lucky Crate sold in Kafra shop, contains 5 May Lucky Packs sold for 1200 pts.
  • Randgris Mob will now be more proactive
  • Water Dungeon monsters will hit a bit more often than before, and some will not be cast interrupted in some situations.
There are other things we are working on at the same time but I do not know if it will be complete in time for thursday, so I don't want to mention it and have it be late.

Will check on the Kafra warps in the Veins / Rachel area to be sure there is a valid warp path back.

As for the Overlook dungeon We are going to raise the monsters "hit" but not their damage done, I know for players that have twinked gear from years of playing this won't make these monsters a big challenge, but that particular dungeon is more for getting players up to the lvl 70 or so. It would be very easy to oops and make them too hard at that particular level range. From the outside there will be a warp to the floors you have conquered already (based on which floors quests you have finished).

Looked at the Magestic Goat making quest (sealed shrine Bapho) and I from the 2 characters I looked at it appears the error is they spoke to the priest to go in the dungeon again, instead of going to make the Huge Horns. Everytime you make a new dungeon to go into your variables stating you "did it" get erased, and thuse your eligibility to make the horns. Advice is to kill the bapho, and immediately take your dolls and horns and go make your big horns and starting Pimpin around Prontera.

We will begin opening more WoE maps on Yggdrasil. We plan to more fully open WoE on Yggdrasil in June.

This is random, but the kafra stacker won't stack Dungeon Teleport Scrolls. Thought you guys could fix that real quick ;p

I noticed the Fantastic Wig from the Kafra Shop was replaced by the Side Cap headgear... was that intentional? I want to buy a Fantastic Wig. ;) Speaking of Kafra Shop, will the Kafra Shop NPCs come back to Juno and Prontera?

You can still buy fantastic wig from kafra shop inside the dye hair building in prontera. This is for Ymir though.

Are there any plans to change the dungeon? The monsters were still unchallenging...

BTW Heim, if you want to make the Water Dungeon more challenging, consider giving phen effect to swordfish, deviace, and strouf. I made a 75 Minstrel in a couple days from a non-trans archer and solo'd through the water dungeon twice with no troubles. I would have at least been forced to fly wing from danger if I couldn't stop their waterballs.

Also, double all the monster's HP, quintuple their attack, triple the base EXP, and quadrupile their Job EXP. Way too easy. I hope the quests are worthwhile.

Also, consider giving Orc Village warp back to non-vips. That warp from pront and geffen has always been there. Oh and please consider putting back the save option at the orc village kafra for VIPs. While I'm on a Orc kick, I'd love you long time if you made a VIP only map out of the now removed West Orc map. Super HOs for players in their 100s-120s would be awesome!

Is there a place that provides a VIP warp to Glast Heim? If not, might be an opportune time to add it into the list. Perhaps add it into the Geffen Kafra's teleport list.

A VIP teleport option from Rachel's Kafra to Ice Dungeon would be nice too.

Is the Overlook Water Dungeon still going to be only 30-75? And will there be Eden warps to the different levels? Because it's annoying to have to go outside every time you need to re-endow.

1. If additional feedback or grand opening type advertisement is desired, perhaps the VIP only restriction on Overlook Dungeon should be delayed?

4. Great!

5. Some type of HD-upgrading insurance consumable might be a popular item.

GH definitely. And a way to get from Rachel that does not consist of the Airship maybe (when the Harpy event was up I'd take the Harpy VIP teleporter to get to Juno ;)).

I don't have a lot of Slotting Ads, but interested to see what comes out of this though.

Im not sure if this is the place to put this...
but VIP accounts should be able to warp back to prontera from Racheal and Veins. This is more of an annoyance of having to take the airship as a VIP.

Getting back West High Orcs would be a major deal for me when it comes to playing more.

I'd go there just like in the old days =w=



But liking the updates !


Seems like you're getting a lot done Heim, finding your will of fire for iRO is important. Keep it up !




At the same time though.. I can't help but feel slightly worried over these "new kafra items".

I really like these early maintenance notes. This is good stuff! As for slotting ads, I can only guess... maybe we will get slotted Fairy, Angel Wing Ears, or even Pinions?

a non slotted armor would be perfect
