Samurai/Eastern themed equips & Valk. Revamp

We have 2 different eastern/Samurai themed sets along with a lot of eastern themed costumes but no IM weapons to match them (Samurai swords, Samurai bows---usually a banded ornamental longbow, etc.). We also have fantastic looking Valk sets from the Ragnorak patch but the sets all have pretty useless bonuses, so no one plays that content (not worth it...sub-par rewards) or uses the gear. It would be nice to see a simple revamp of that content, which could be done just by improving the quality of the sets. This would open up the possibility of new builds in those level-ranges and add more reason to create characters for that BSQ tier (40s, 50s, and 60s). This was also brought up back in 2015 (https://forums.warpp...t-valkyrie-set/), with a positive response from Popcorn. Opinions?

These options are to die for. Even the Warlock set's ones are nice, which is somewhat exhilarating after one has looked at PoS options.

We are not able to change Ragnarok licensed content because it's Ragnarok licensed.

 

 

Well, this is terrible. Rest in pieces, Valkyrie warriors.

 

Still, what about holding a katana for example? Is it anything possible in the near future?

I know the content is under license, but that includes the item stats? o_O You can't adjust set bonuses or add default item stats? That's so weird, lol.

It's more so the entire update content. As Gravity Games, the old developers, also developed Ragnarok Online. Meaning all content in that World's Collide update (Monsters, Equipment, Mounts, Maps, etc.) Is technically under their property despite it being on a game they no longer have development rights too.

Though various RO IM sets still circulate under the Mixboards, I guess that any tweaks to anything from the World's Collide patch that's Ragnarok related would have to go through Gravity's jurisdiction. This includes reworking the sets, adding new variants of the sets, the accessories and items that are dungeon rewards, the unreleased 2nd part of World's Collide content that is rumored to be in game data, making edits or new difficulties of the Orc Hero and Glast Heim dungeons and anything involving the Ragnarok Newbie set you get for free.

It's kind of something out of Popcorn's control unless WarpPortal wished to recontact Gravity involving that update and pitch ideas to improve upon it and release new content from it.
