Patch Notes: December 14, 2011

Ragnaholidays Everyone ~
Patchnotes are up after lunch break. Christmas season is starting in pRO servers as the Simbang Gabi Event is launched. Be one of the first players to get the first costume headgear in-game.

A lot of bug fixes are being applied. The most notable fix is the unlimited mATK bug caused by the Orlean's Necklace effect. I'm happy that they are doing this and hoped it is really fixed this maintenance. It caused so much trouble on our regular WOE SE siege last monday. Every guild is basically abusing the bug and unleasing one hit kill magics! Our siege last monday is just sick! A whole guild can be wiped with one hit Frosty Misty or Jack Frost. Any hiding players can be one shot by Ruwach! Its just like guilds who excessively abuse the bug will have a sure agit. This issue really caused a lot of inconvenience.

Hypermart doesn't say its on sale on the patch anymore but maybe most of the items are on sale. Let's just check when the servers are up. More headgears are being introduced in the hypermart. The New Feather Beret can be a good alternative to RWC cap. Buy this if you just want to have a different look from what is common without losing the 10% reduction to demi-human and the card slot. Blue Bunny Band is still at the hypermart for this week so more chances of getting ingredients for your trade.

Another controversial promo has been launched. Tao Gunka MVP Card released on Lotti Girl! Now on it's 5th season. Previously TGK card is sold at the hypermart for 5,000php. If you haven't heard of this news read my Tao Gunka in Hypermart post. Now Tao Gunka can be in your hands of luck by giving out a gamble with Lotti Girl. In my opinion, Lotti Girl is the ROK version of the previously released Donita and Ligaya. Somehow it is also a varation of the Lucky Scrolls to get rare items. Always remember this promo is gamble so be prepared for the worst and not just focus on the top prize.

Yeah I had a lot of rants on this post so lets move forward and read the rest of the patchnotes after the break.
