Renewal FAQ Friday

6/7/2019

Please don't give up on Costume Valhalla Idol    . Expecting another attempt fix next maintenance. Thank you

Campitor: We just had a break through on this today. Were testing the fixes but we are now able to add the drawn images to these headgear and manipulate their draw locations and draw layer. A final fix for this headgear should be available next week.
 

Are autumn headband effects still disabled in woe? If so, why?

Campitor: All the community class headgears as a set are blocked in WoE.
 
 

Hey guys, I think you missed mine from the last thread! 
 
Can we get a response in regards to the Improving Ragnarok Online thread? a lot of people have had great suggestions and we wanted to know if they would be addressed individually or if we would have an overall response to everything? I think it would be a great idea to receive player feedback and allow us to be part of the decision making towards improving iRO.

You guys have a lot of great additions such as EMB, Bounty Boards, Eve Natalia, Eat Gear, the mini VIP and much more. We wanna know what else we can add to appeal to more players. Thank you.
Also NinJedi had  a really good question:
 
Q> Can you implement an optional quest that allows monster tokens to drop just like Prontera Prison quest items or Cotton (from that Snow Flower Festival) where players can get an additional token drop directly into their inventory from partymates' kills?

Campitor: The improve ragnarok thread will be sent to the team that requested it. In addition we will internally review it for additional tasks that we can accomplish. However currently our (internal team) plate is pretty full with finishing out pvp changes, emb rebalance, bounty boards, upcoming merges, and the 3rd/4th quarter new player experience redo.

We have no plans to change the structure of the Monster Token event. The method of distribution we chose is so that all users have the chance of receiving the item without any outside intervention. We don't plan to implement changes to the event that would give users extra drop chances or change the method of participating.
 

Hello Campitor! What do you think of the idea of implementing a Homunculus Map on Turn In? Preferably a map where only Alchemists and evolutions can enter.

Campitor:  Although its an idea to consider much of the same ill mannered activity related to maps such as orc dungeon, ant hell, moscovia, and lower TI would follow.
 

any chance that Bowling Bash will be buff? e.g. decreasing cooldown to 100ms perhaps or even 200ms like Dragon Breath

Campitor: We haven't started on that project yet due to other commitments but it is on the to do list and will be reviewed with all other skills.

Does Campitor like Poring Man

Astra: He doesn't have a choice.
Campitor: He lives in my nightmares. 

Q> Have you ever considered adding an extension for VIP Summoner to include non-mvp monsters?

To make it summon large numbers of Duneyrr, Hardrock Mammoth, Tendrilrion, Powerful Archer Skeletons, Dark Shadows, Frozen Wolves, and the like.
Or maybe make it summon a larger wave of other more common monsters like Hunterflies, Hodremlins, Obeaunes, Penomena etc.

yeah you missed that one. Maybe because I sent it in a bit late lol sorry
Anyways, I just wanna make token farming doable while in a party without having to have all the tokens funneled into that one guy with the hbp, and so it'll be easier for priests and brewers to participate this time around.

 

Campitor: Eventually were looking at switching VIP summoner into a monthly challenge dungeon with tougher encounters. Currently we have submitted the art request for the dungeon rewards and are awaiting delivery before we can move forward.

I understand the of support classes but we have no plans to change the structure of the Monster Token event. The method of distribution we chose is so that all users have the chance of receiving the item without any outside intervention. We don't plan to implement changes to the event that would give users extra drop chances or change the method of participating. Party loot settings allow parties to set the loot to distribute randomly no matter who picks items up so that distribution is more fair.

Is there any plan for Ragnarok zero?

Campitor: Unfortunately we cannot comment regarding kRO's Zero server.

Any chance to fix doram's grooming skill. The grooming skill should cure things like Frozen
but i cannot unfroze myself using grooming skill. thanks

Campitor: Is this Frozen status or Deep Frozen status? We can check on bug reports regarding this skill.
 

Can we make the Maid in "Today I Feel" take only 15 Sea Stones(Royal Banquet Daily Quest)? Currently he gets all of the ones in the Inventory. It would be helpful if we can have the excess sea stones for the next turn in.

Campitor: We can check on this. Some of the quests regardless of how many items you have in inventory make you hunt more before its regarded as complete. So changing this structure may not help.
 

I tried enchanting these costumes at Malangdo but still to no avial. When will these costumes be fixed so we can enchant them?
 
Costume Elder Devil Horn
Costume Red Gemini Eyes
Costume Low Pony Tail

Campitor: Xealot will add them for the 6/13 Maintenance.
 

After closing the classic are you guys gonna start a jumping Jane event on renewal for classic players?

Campitor: There will be a leveling event for users but most likely not a Janeway event.
 

Can you make Vicious Weapons exchangable to EMBs like GFSS? and two of the bio5 costumes can be exchanged to enchanted stones, why the rest cannot?

Campitor: We can look into recycling opens for Vicious Weapons but we need to finish the EMB rebalance first.

 

Can we make the Maid in "Today I Feel" take only 15 Sea Stones(Royal Banquet Daily Quest)? Currently he gets all of the ones in the Inventory. It would be helpful if we can have the excess sea stones for the next turn in.

On that note, I want to get the Terra Gloria NPC's reworked to adjust how they claim stuff too, mainly Gun Master (Tracking Down Missing Guns for Master) and Rebellion Guard Leader Lacris (Preparing for the Party Quests).
Doing those quests usually leaves you with more items than needed and are just a bother to clear out of your inventory every day. It won't help stockpiling any extra items since you're forced to hunt monsters each time anyways, which will only give you more quest items : P


> Or can we have those items made to be droppable? I know they are sellable to npc, but that doesn't really help when I'm trying to make room in my inventory while inside instances.

 

Campitor: We will need to check the script. Most likely we can have the NPC check and take away all the items when you turn in the quest.
 

We have cards that exist in the server that gives 15% atk to boss, small, medium, and large monsters.
 
What about cards that gives 15% matk? 
 
Lastly, any update on this?

Campitor:  All new cards are designed by kRO. If such a card exists we will most likely get it in a future update.
1. Still bugging the studio about it.
2. It will be done on 6/13
3. No feedback yet.
 

Hiya Mods: Will the changes to monster tokens that people asked for months ago be implemented this time around? For example less than 50 per turn in. Account bound instead of character bound. The ability to store tokens. Higher drop rate, even slightly ( I recall posting that out of 1000+ monsters, I found a one or two dozen only). And being able to turn in tokens for the upgrade attempt more frequently than once a day ( even just twice a day, or roughly every 10 hours would be fantastic). THANKS! ^~^

Campitor: We have no plans to change the structure of the Monster Token event. The method of distribution we chose is so that all users have the chance of receiving the item without any outside intervention. We don't plan to implement changes to the event that would give users extra drop chances or change the method of participating.
 

When will you actually start communicating in the "Improving Ragnarok Online" topic?

Campitor: The improve ragnarok thread will be sent to the team that requested it. In addition we will internally review it for additional tasks that we can accomplish. However currently our (internal team) plate is pretty full with finishing out pvp changes, emb rebalance, bounty boards, upcoming merges, and the 3rd/4th quarter new player experience redo.
 

Will you marry me CMAstra?

Astra: No
Campitor:

Bring back old costume into one box please? Or when will firesale costume come?

Campitor:  Costume Firesale will most likely return in July.
 

I've asked this before and been answered by Camp that it will come on the first quarter of 2019.
 
1. When is the change in Investments that give less fillers and more usable Alchemist brewing ingredients such as Poison Spore and the likes?
 
2. HD Carnium/Bradium/Elunium/Oridecon 100 boxes in cash shop are sold at a discount during Mad Bunny Event, what is the logic for Enriched Ores 100 boxes being sold at a premium price? 
 
Non-Event Price / Event Price:
HD Carnium/Bradium 5/box = 75KP, 100pcs = 1,500KP; / 100pcs + 12MB Scrolls = 1,200KP; discount of 300KP
HD Elunium/Oridecon 10/box = 100KP, 100pcs = 1,000KP; / 100pcs + 8MB Scrolls = 800KP; discount of 200KP
on the other hand,
Enriched Ores 10/box =  210KP, 100pcs = 2,100KP; / 100pcs + 24MB Scrolls = 2,400KP; overcharge of 300KP
Enriched Ores 50/box =  950KP, 100pcs = 1,900KP; / 100pcs + 24MB Scrolls = 2,400KP; overcharge of 500KP

Spoiler

I understand that if 100KP = 1MB Scroll, it equates to that. But may I suggest that if the goal is to give a discount on ores that caters to the Mad Bunny Event, you should've priced the ores 1,600KP and bundled it with only 16 MB Scrolls.

Campitor: 
1. We will examine investments in the future.
2. Mad bunny boxes are a discount based on the base ore price. They contain additional items that may interest users. There are other boxes that offer better kafra per ore rates but not bonus items. Users are free to purchase any of the ore boxes that cater to their goals.
 

Any news about the Nightmare OGH and sloted temporal boots with enchants? :x

Campitor:  Were trying to see if we can 
 

Plan of giving us slotted abyss/N/icefall dress?
JRO has other powerful slotted armors and with card such as gloom card, the combination is much much better than just abyss dress.
But we don't have those armor in IRO, so basically those armor mvp cards are totally replaced by corresponding OCP dresses; which I don't think is an good idea, OCP gives new player an faster way to catch up but old players' accumulation should also be respected（and this is why JRO has those powerful slotted armors)
You can nerf slotted abyss dress to its 50% ability, from 40% bonus dmg to 20%, as a balance.
 
Or maybe you can bring some non-ragcan items from JRO to solve the issue?

Campitor: jRO items are always a big maybe on if we can get them. Many items are related to events that we cannot run as they are related to intellectual properties that jRO was running promotions with. Specific ones we can explore requesting but there is no guarantee we can get it.
 

Did we will get a skill update soon? like RG that can use genesis ray with out another requirement because we have Devine guard hat that useless be cause we can't trigger genesis ray. We need 2RG to use it.

Campitor: We are still pushing to get balance changes done.

When are we going to have an official iRO/WP discord? 

Astra: Not any time soon, we're still discussing this and looking into it. 
 

Is there an ETA on excellion set(from EP 15.1)?

Campitor:  Later this month according to my calendar. 
 

when will you response this thread?

What is your stance on item sprite related scamming? Seems that BSB sprite will get a fix, but there are still ppls exploiting the same/similar sprites scam and buyers have fallen into victims. Is there no way to punish the scammers? Or at the very least, maybe you can offer trade reversal if such things happen in future?

Campitor: It is ill mannered behavior that should be punished. Usually if its done on accident the user is just warned. If it is intentional trade backs and suspension can occur.
 

Update Alora Npc please
 
add> community headgears
         Mvp drop headgears
         Zodiac headgears

Campitor: There are plans to update Alora as part of our revisited MVP summoner system. But we currently don't have costume versions of many of those headgears that can be used for alora.
 

"Campitor: We will have a Calendar for June as we get closer. Were still waiting for a schedule on some critical things."

Closer July? 

 Campitor: The major events still coming for June are additional episode 15 rewards and the anniversary event.

EMB rebalance? details please?

 Campitor: We don't have anything to share at this time.

VIP token for zeny? 1k WPE is 1b right now.

Campitor:  Unfortunately we don't have this vip system yet. So this is not something we can explore.
 

change awaken ktullanux cd down to 1 hour please.

Campitor: Currently were checking all the illusion dungeon MVP spawn mechanics and plan to address them as a group. 1 hour sounds a little too often but 22 hours feels like an excessively long time as it means there are times where users will never see the MVP even if they play every day.

can we get an update to Designer Heidam in Malangdo? I hope we could trade the recent costumes into random enchantment stones.

Eden Dungeon Teleport Added for the following Dungeons

• Amatsu Dungeon
• Beach Dungeon
• Bifrost Tower
• Scaraba

I often save my characters at the Kafra NPC in northern Prontera to help with doing Episode 16.1's Royal Banquet daily quests but that Kafra doesn't offer the ability to warp to other towns. Could the town warp option be added to this Kafra?

Very long discussed and also very long requested.

Given the closing of restart and classic, what are the odds that a 'Ragnarok Zero' style server will open in iRO?
