Ya.
We need El Decastes (13.3) and then this (14.1) is supposed to follow.

It includes:
-obviously the Bifrost bridge maps north of Splendide with small town called Moramora and a labyrinth instance (forest of fog)
-useful new 3rd cls equips (particularly for Rangers, Warlocks and ABs)
-Super Novice expansion (just the most awful 2nd cls skills and 50 job lvls)
-Cash mounts for everyone (just for style and movement speed, cant attack while using)
-Byalan 6th floor with eels, squids and whatnot
-Biolabs 4th floor (champs, stalkers, bios...)
-Malangdo Island (home to cat Hand :3)
-Card removal, some fishy instances on Malangdo(one is lv140 o_O), moar Eden turn in quests (70-110), some really neat equipment enchants, and vendor search I think, also pictures for schwarzwald kafras lolwut...

(Ninjas are probably in 14.2, they're just showing the sprites they got so far)

They look kinda bad...but hopefully their full sprite animations and skills won't disappoint.

Did they say something along the lines of a split for male and female ninjas?

[Chucklet]

Super Novie expansion!

And card removals? O dear...

[Shiina]

While the sprites/designs aren't the best Gravity has done, I think they're better than a majority of the 3rd class sprites: a step in the right direction. I'm actually quite fond of the female one (well, except for the heels XD). I imagine the sprites will probably go through some revisions before it's finalized?

Maybe theyre showing them already so we get used to them and don go QQ FUUU like on the RK sprites xD

They look ok to me

Any one know is the 150 SN's get all the skills to begin with? or if they just unlock all the new ones when they get 99 or 100?

Edit: Those 2nd ninja look damn good. I am looking forward to all this new content eventually. We need to get on the fast track to updating.

[Charon]

When you do a quest that enables you to go above 99 and makes your job lvl to 1, you can skill those skills. It's a job change, just no sprite change.

[Heimdallr]

There are tons of mini-updates that are on the burner. 13.3 is our next, but I'll tell you now that 14.1 is NOT our next planned update after 13.3.

Male ninja is called Kagerou, lit. "shadow wolf/wolf of shadow".
Female ninja is called Oboro, meaning "hazy".

The report also mentioned gunslinger 2nd job and how they're "chuunibyou*" job and skill name-wise, but no other information on it.

*Note: "Chuuni" translates to 8th grade, not 11th.

I'm cool with that, as long as there is something, especially if it makes sense

[CeruleanGamer]

Oh hell no.... Please add the update but remove that card removal crap. It's gonna get abused so much to the point economies of all servers would collapse.

[Alca]

The way gravity programmed it, the card remover isn't all that abusable.


Also OP skipped on Themed Town:Dewata & Interlude: Malangdo Island, which are considered 2 whole separate updates.

I would say "Misty" would be more accord with the ninja class rather than "Hazy"... dunno... I think it's better for her ninja name...

Hmmm... Misty... Kazumi... for some reason Pokemon's images came to my mind... /sigh

I imagine they are just gona keep the name simple, so it will prolly just be something like shinobi. Even know that means ninja already.

That may not work though if they're gonna split skills to be gender-specific like bard/dancer, though it could just be a case of TK Boy/Girl. I personally would like to see them keep the Kagerou/Oboro class names. ._.

If you look at all the other names they are simplified so i doubt they will break the chain with those ones. Even if those do make it to the other servers, the localization will prolly change the name. I mean even star gladiator was a little to risque for IRO.

Personally i like Kagerou but Oboro doesn't sound that great.

[Alorien]

Ooo wow, I love the way the second class female ninja looks! White and red clothing... so pretty!
The male reminds me a lot of Ramza from Final Fantasy Tactics with those gloves.

Now I just hope we'll see the Gunslinger second class and maybe some of their new skills soon~!

[weaseI]

I'm expecting Bleach+Naruto skill tree

[Akin]

I just wish they'd let ninja's use more ninja type weapons besides daggers and Huuma.

Ninja should be able to use certain bows, claw class weapons, certain 1 handed swords(Tsurugi, Sashimi, Ice Flachion, and Fireblend), and certain 2 handed swords (katana, muramasa, masamune, and maybe the bloody eater and death guidance).

It's a shame the RO client doesn't support the amount of different attack animations those different weapons require =[

So what is really going on, will we get these sprites we have been asking about for so long?

I mean, it's been more than six months now. From a mmorpg perspective, that's a pretty long time.

[Charon]

You should know by now that it takes ages to get anything from kRO, even if it's less than a MB of data.

[Haldor]

byaland island maps are my favorite, I might come back sometime to check them out when/if they come

[iCare]

Why iRO delaying updates anyways?
