Draconis Peaks

Draconis Peaks is a dragon training ground, located deep within the heart of the Lunar mountains where only the fearless dare to refine their skills as legendary warriors.

The area is inhabited by powerful dragons who relentlessly attempt to claim dominion over the territory through the expansion of their brood. To aid in this expansion, teams of brave Visitors assist the dragons in stealing eggs from other broods.

Gather your team mates together and steal some eggs, slay some dragons and prove you have to what it takes to be the best in the frozen tundra of Luna.

Teams: 7~10 Players (consisting of 1~2 Support Roles, 6~8 Fighter Roles)
Other Requirement(s): Premium Account (for a limited time only, as part of the “early access” benefit offered for Premium Accounts)
Level Brackets

100-140
141-180

Additional daily quest assignments are available from Battlemasters, located in each planet’s major city.

More details for Draconis Peaks can be found on the wiki, http://rosena-wiki.o.../Draconis_Peaks

A 'cool down' timer has been added to the Game Arena system.

PvP modes now have a 1 hour timer that will begin upon finishing or leaving a match, before you are able to queue for a new one.

PvM modes now have a 1 hour timer that will begin upon finishing or leaving a dungeon, before you are able to queue for a new one.

These timers are unique to PvP and PvM modes, so you may queue one after the other as long as they are not the same type (PvP/PvM).

Bug Fixes
  • Corrected issue that caused client to crash randomly when opening inventory.
  • Corrected issue which prevented Arua Interrogator and Hebarn Saboteur from respawning for Vizier's Key quest line.
  • Disabled use of Power of Love and Cherry Berry items in Game Arena PvP zones.
  • The following skills will no longer be removed by skill resets:
    • Wayfinder Skill
    • Vizier's Key
    • Arua's Fate
    • Hebarn's Fate
  • Party Share calculation has been fixed.*
*Party Share Experience Bug Fix

I am giving an additional explanation regarding this bug fix, because it is going to have a large impact on party play.


I brought this issue up to the community a while back and the response was, in short, "the sooner you do it, the quicker we can move on with our lives." So here the fix is.


Previously party share was giving out a pure bonus to experience yields to all party members, instead of applying the bonus and dividing it amongst the party. The idea is, is when you party with others, you are already gaining experience faster because of each additional person, it is expected that you defeat monsters faster and thus, experience gained over time is increased.


The mechanics we wanted to help encourage this was to make it so each party member would increase the base experience a monster would yield through a small bonus and then again with our the party level system, which would also increase the base experience of the monster as well. And once defeated, this total experience would be divided to the party members.


However through the joys of human error, it was not dividing and was essentially being given to each player instead. This missed division, has been corrected.


But while we did this, we also increased the amount of experience each party level modifies the monster's base experience to 2.5% per party level, instead of the previous 1% to help offset and continue to encourage party play.

Well, this isn't exactly what I was hoping for. But it is better for us non premium pvmers, than what we had. I still think Naughty's idea, of making dungeons a zulie sink, and letting them be unlimited, as long as we were willing to pay, was better. However, I will settle for this, and say thank you, for improving the rose experience for us dungeon lovers

Rose is getting worst .. All you do is tryin to get more and more money from players, but you don't think about our gameplay.

On the contrary, we very much think about the game play. The game play is what we think of first. However, we are forced to think after the fact about how revenue can be generated so ROSE can continue to be supported by the development team's efforts. It is a necessary "evil" if we want to see ROSE continue in to the future.

I still think Naughty's idea, of making dungeons a zulie sink, and letting them be unlimited, as long as we were willing to pay, was better. However, I will settle for this, and say thank you, for improving the rose experience for us dungeon lovers

It was considered. In fact the process of how this all came about was inspired by that very suggestion, because we recognized the dungeons weren't as used as they could be and frankly, having to wait 24 before you're allowed to do a dungeon again? Sad panda. :(

Zulie wasn't opted to be used as a means of entry for a few reasons. And with the recent efforts to give our premium account service more value, it evolved to this.

Servers are still down, right? Because after patching I clicked start and received a few Material File Errors.

Here they are just in case you need them:

"Material File [3Ddata/NPC/NPC/PRIEST/head01.dds] not found ..."
"Material File [3Ddata/NPC/NPC/PRIEST/body01.dds] not found ..."
"Material File [3Ddata\NPC\npc\Lunar_hunter/OrloHunter_Head.dds] not found ..."

Sow as i understand, because the the players who like doin dungeon complained about the ammount of times they could do a dungeon per day u guys made this so called 'fix' which end up to be a pain for the players who like to do the crystal defenders.
Are u guys capable of satisfying both aspects on the game for every single player or is it either this or that?

There's already been an amount of feedback and the only answer we get is that we can still play only less then now. For the info this gonna be a lot less then u guys can imagine.

Basicly, the stuff where the pvm'ers where complaining about is gonna be the same stuff the pvp'ers gonna complain about now.
Plus the prices of honor gears gonna inflate so freeking much right now.

I actually like the patch. I also understand that Rose does need continued support (aka money) in order to survive. I think the premium account benefits may have finally captured my attention. Hoping for no bugs with the new adds.

Leo, you could have a win-win situation by adding the timer for the PvM games and leaving the PvP game as it was.

I doubt the missing revenue (i'm assuming you're actually going to have revenues after this, which I doubt, at least on the pvp side) from that would have sent Gravity to bankrupt.

You guys make enough money without this...I don't even want to imagine how much you have made with the valentine IM boxes and the enchanted boxes.

The missing materials have been fixed (v459)

You could have avoid the fist....

If I avoided everything that could make someone upset, we would never make changes, ever. Any change runs the risk of someone not liking it, no matter the reason. Decisions are made in the best interest of weighing out the pros and cons in respect to the goals aimed to be achieve by the change.

It doesn't make me happy to upset players in our community, because I value each and every one of you. You make, what ROSE is, special.

I'm not in a position to speak about the finances of the company. But I know my job. It has many facets and responsibilities. One of which is to ensure ROSE does well by generating enough revenue month to month, year to year. But you shouldn't assume to think we're making money hand over fist either. Valentines is over, the items are off the Item Mall (not the Box of Enchanted Stones yet, that's next week) but that isn't going to last a full year. :P
