Patch Notes: January 29, 2013

Photobucket

Patchnotes are up very early and has been constantly updated! We have a very huge update.

New Loki and Valhalla servers will be merging today and will be named New Loki. All important details have been posted by the GMs on the official site, forums and even on FB page so read them carefully especially those who are affected. After this big update we will have a Modified Experience and Drop for all servers.

A big update will also happen to our User Interface. The mini hypermart will have a bigger window. The map through Alt + ` will now show kafra destinations. Our player inventory will now have a locked button to prevent dropping of items. And from what I saw the personalized 4th tab for your chacater inventory is also implemented. You can place any item here.

On the hypermart side, I would like to point out that +15 foods DOES NOT STACK with +10 foods. But +15 foods STACK with +20 foods. I'm not sure if this is working as intended. Personally, +10 foods are far more practical to buy in bulk. The added price to get the additional +5 stats from +15 foods is way too expensive.

Lotti Girl is now featuring new cards. Kranken and Sropho card making its way on the top prizes. And it's the first time that Lotti is now giving away 4 MVP cards. Wow!

I don't have a ranger but I heard a lot of players are pissed on making Elven Arrow a hypermart only item. I guess rangers will still be underdogs on F2P servers. lol.

Read the rest of the patchnotes after the break.

nice updates but im just wondering why they wont fix the minor bugs first before bringing up new and bigger updates. quest bugs, unavailable items, bugged maps for pets and homunculus. :/

my main is a sorcerer and i see that there’s not much for me in the latest updates but i want to try those new cards. finally, status cards for casters. wiw!

I think the problems that you stated are more of kRO problems. I have look into weekly kRO updates and there are tons of minor bug fixes being addressed. There are also minor bug fixes that does not appear on patchnotes because they are just superficial and not gamebreaking.

As I understand, pRO is only patching fixes as they come. When there are game breaking issues that needs fixing they still need kRO to give fixes for them.

Lawfer said...

hmm... the noticeable bug that i encountered is the map bugs wherein the homunculus and pets are missing, trying to summon the homunculus will result to intimacy loss while summoning the pets on the bugged maps will result to permanent loss of the pet.

another thing, catching pets. some maps are bugged that the window said that catching is successful, it even shows the egg was created, yet the monster is still attacking me and the egg is not in my inventory.

some items are also missing. i remember hunting sleepers and getting lots of hypnotist's staff in valkyrie last year. but now that i created a super novice in new iris, i've hunted hypnotist's staves on the same map, bubble gum's up with premium, been hunting a week and yet, not a single staff.

i've reported these months ago, these are just small bugs but still, these are bugs that needs not to be ignored.

but despite the bugs i encountered, i still love pRO and i appreciate the hard work of the GMs to make the game more interesting as the years go by

btw, i love what they did today. ang linis ng prontera, sarap sa mata lol

(cyanix) ^_^ tama.. di lang prontera, halos lahat ng map na dati e puno ng bot at dual loggers.. pakiramdam ko bumalik yung dating pRO nung panahon na wala pang bot.

Herbert said...

I think its better to file a ticket to CS so that the GMs are aware of these bugs. But eventually they will still call for kRO to get these bugs fixed.
