This Week in Ragnarok June 27, 2022

Good Morning Midgardians!

I hope everyone had a good weekend and enjoyed the free VIP weekend event. As a reminder you have until the end of the month to participate in the Spend Points event announced here. 

Now what is going on in iRO this week!

Currently the team is working on the following

• Fixing the missing descriptions for the new Shadow Cube items
• Testing Costume Stone Box 14
• Testing Client Stability Fix
• Preparing for the VIP distribution. (Target Date 6/30)
• Preparing for the costume box distribution (Target Date 7/7)
• Getting your questions to the studio head answered.
• Planning an untitled event to be released at the beginning of Fall.

In addition we have other issues under investigation/fixing but they aren't on the schedule just yet.

The current status of the next major iRO update: Undergoing Translation

Since we have a holiday coming up we thought it would be nice to run a drop bonus event from 6/30-7/7 of +50%.

As always thank you for playing Ragnarok Online and I will be seeing you in Midgard.

 

• Getting your questions to the studio head answered.

Hey Camp, will this be Episode 17.2?

• Testing Client Stability Fix

Interested in this.  Any more detail? Will this attempt to fix the client disappearing (default) or the error-pop up / .dmp files generated?

Also having more frequent color-inversions or floor-going-white events.  All these shiny DX 12 ultimate cards not pushing out flawless DX 8.1. *grumble* 

Thanks @Camp for the update, I think CMGarnet said fixing focus arrow strike is your next priority and I didn't see it here, maybe could you please tell us a more clear progress on this issue since many of us are concerned about this?

Please Camp instead of the 50% drop event a 0.02%-0.03%% Card drop event

• Testing Client Stability Fix: I hope this fix the annoying "random closing" of client without error message as well as some sprite/gravity errors

cross over again and again.

i've been waiting for two years 

Glad seeing you around, It is so poetic that you use Chaos(?) Dreadnought as your avatar, always helping us like the space marine who serve in Dreadnought for eternity, I salute you.

Anyways, I would like you to reconsider adding some features back to the nerfed “Themis Helm” as I mention in the previous post.

[Hesperus lit] When learning Lv5, when using [Pressure] additionally, there is a certain probability that the enemy will be auto-centered. Spell [Ray of Genesis] is activated at Mastery Lv

I understand that the imported JRO gear needed to be adjusted before implement .It is quite reasonable to nerf the delay reduction from 25% to 10% but eliminating the autocast Genesis Ray is a bit too harsh. But without the ability that allow the user to cast Genesis Ray via Gloria Domini(Pressure) , Themis Helm would be unusable  .

I would really appreciate if you reconsider adding the auto cast effect or just passing my proposition to the dev team.

Thankyou so much

I don't know you get report about this or not.
Now we got new issue in Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake (Especially Laptop)

Problem is new Generation of Intel UHD Graphic got conflict with many old generation game. 

RO are the one of problem, We got issue game client freeze after open 1 -2 minutes.

For who are use PC vesion is no issue , because they can select Dedicate Graphic in setup.exe

But for Laptop , even your laptop have dedicate graphic card , but Setup.exe cannot see it so game will forced to run on Intel UHD Graphic card and that become problem.

So how to solve this , I know compare with Gravity and Intel , we cannot ask Intel to change this for us.
But one thing that we can do is change code in client to run on DX11 or 12 instead of DX 8.1

After you change to update DX , setup.exe will can see dedicate graphic card and we can selected it.
then we can skip using intel UHD graphic and use dedicate graphic instead.

then problem will be solved.

this problem not only iRO but other server also got same issue.

Please bring this topic to studio , then after they got many report from any server. They will do something on DirectX.

Hope they fix it, they fixed the Windows 11 BSoD problem i was having by patching the .exe so fingers crossed.

It gives +20 guided attack (perfect hit) instead of 20% size damage.

So this is translation error.

If you want it to be 20% size, the 20 perfect hit should be dropped.

But I think 99.9% ranger players will prefer to choose  20 perfect hit instead of 20% size. 

No need to complain.

There is actually a reason to complain, the effect advertised its clearly different to the one put in place, meaning they lure people into buying an OCP to obtain an item giving a totally different effect than intended.

Well it is just mis-translate. 

Since no ranger wants to trade 20% perfect hit to 20% size.

Let it be the current status is best.

I guess you misunderstand +30 dex result  to perfect hit. 
Please try attacking high level mvps like Eremes MVP.

Ranger never need perfect hit to mvping .
Critical and FAS always hit them regardless of their flee.  And Rangers can easily obtain 100 perfect hit with other equipments.

+1 to this..

I really don't see why there's a need to "nerf" magic RGs. It's not like Ray of Genesis is dealing OP damage lol

Anyway, if Themis Helm gets auto cast Genesis via Gloria Domini, I think it would become something to consider.

I also don't think it would render the Divine Guard useless, as Themis Helm wouldn't have auto High Heal (unlike Divine Guard's Tuna Belly proc) -- unlesssss..you add it too? XD

Just my two cents. 

I'm hoping this matter gets addressed. Cheers!

 

• Preparing for the VIP distribution. (Target Date 6/30)

My VIP duration was not extended despite having it active before Friday last week.

The duration of the buff wasn't changed but instead there should be items at Code The Redeemer as compensation to give the 3 addition days of VIP.
