New Cards for Nightmare Clock Tower

Card system is a classic feature of Ragnarok Online where it is still being updated every now and then. Cards are specifically dropped by the monster it represents. For example a Poring Card is exclusively being dropped by Poring monsters. But of course at present day there are other means of getting this cards aside from looting it from the monster itself. kRO had been generous in updating the card system to include various cards for Nightmare Clock Tower.

Patch Notes: July 30, 2014

Patchnotes are posted and the servers are up.

There is a shocking news today which is the nerf on the godly item Megingjard. The bonus strength was removed making the item less powerful. I'm not sure what are the GMs thinking because as far as I remember there is no such change on other servers. The nerf on the god item will make it possible less powerful than other items such as perfectly enchanted RWC pendants with Gold Scaraba Card or the Bakonawa Tattoo. I hope the GMs will re-consider their decision.

Aside from that most of the events on the patchnotes are regular events. Read the rest of the patchnotes after the break.

Sudden MVP Killing - Orc Lord

One day I was bored and decided to go to the Orc Dungeon to kill some woot farmers. Orc Dungeon in pRO Valkyrie is home of the PK oriented guilds and players. I'm not a fan of the PVP feature so I won't be warping directly to that field. I am expecting aggressive players in the are once I spawn into the field.

C Full Moon Siege

I have another crazy War of Emperium idea for our guild of using the same costume headgear during the start of Ragnarok Online Agit Lords Phase 1. It is not as daring as the Smiley Mask Siege because Siege Points are at stake. We have to be competitive and looks united at the same time so I have come up with the idea of using C Full Moon as our costume.

Player Feedback

It's been a while since I wrote a player feedback. And this is my first for this year. Before I'm writing this post to give you updates and plans for the site because I don't have any idea on your reactions. But I think this post is no longer necessary because most of the time I'm getting first hand feedbacks via my facebook fan page. If you haven't liked my page here is the link.

I'm thanking everyone visiting the page because it shows your support to my effort to provide you with guides, infos and adventures. I'm also happy on my blog stats because it shows that you are visiting my site mostly for guides and new episodes. I do hope that you'll also find my adventure posts worth reading. You may pick up some good party set-up on my adventures though not all runs that I post are successful.

As usual, I'm still a casual pRO Valkyrie adventurer and I don't spend too much time in-game. When I'm playing Ragnarok Online either I'm doing an adventure or participating in the War of Emperium. I'm not into market and PK maps so I don't spend long hours in the game. But when I do play the game I interact with friends and with some fans.

Read after the break all the compiled feedback that I got from fans. Maybe you can see your name there. This is my small way of showing you that I do read your feedbacks. Also you can always approach me on my facebook account, facebook fanpage and on this site. I always accomodate everyone as much as I can. I do hope you won't get mad or get disappointed when I can't give timely reply but I always see to it that I respond to you.

I don't have any wild plans for the site aside from continuing my regular posts. I have few War of Emperium posts now because I feel that it is more exciting participating on the WOE itself than reading it on the blog. But you can tell me if you want one though it will focus more on our guild since I can't represent the opinions of the opposing guilds. I also stand on not posting any class guides because I'm not an expert on each class and every patch tends to obsolete strategies and equipments. It will be hard to create a guide then you have to change it again after a patch. I also don't post leveling guides aside from leeching because I'm lazy on leveling up. Lastly I don't create market related post aside from hypermart because the prices of items vary from one server to another. However continue to expect a lot of Instance Dungeon posts because I really do love these end-game feature together with War of Emperium. I'll also continue on providing the latest kRO episodes as long as I have my sources intact and create helpful guides to newbies.

Apparently we have a zeny drain NPC similar to donita and ligaya and is now called Zeny Gurl.
I'm not that sure if this is another effort from the GMs to reduce the zeny as we are approaching the Vasiloz Voucher ultimatum on October.
Currently our markets were somewhat paralyzed because sellers are afraid of being flooded with vouchers that they can't exchange in zeny in the future.
I think that's all for today read the rest of the patchnotes after the break.
