The spoiling starts with increased rates for 10 whole days!

From Saturday October 10th to Monday October 19th.

5/5/3 -> 7/7/4 (Base/Job/Drop rate)


Quests

• The Cake Quests
  Requirement: Level 65+
  See the Pandora NPC in Prontera to start the quest that will make you bake a cake and visit all the former Admins of the server.

Events

Of course we have events planned, some spontaneous that can happen any time during the week, as well planned ones (see below). From the Fairy Auction, to PVP tournaments, and some roleplay events! Some of the events don't have a date yet, we'll fill the schedule as soon as possible.

You don't have to worry about stones, fragments or the usual tower requirements, I will take care of those.
  Prize will depend on the number of map resurrection required (map resurrection will only occur if everyone on the map is dead, otherwise normal resurrection is still left to Priests and Yggdrasil leaf users).

Giving Back

It's heRO's birthday after all, so why not make a gift to the server?

• Ratemyserver Review
  RMS is our main source of new players, leaving a review for the server greatly helps. A few months ago heRO happened to be the #1 Low Rate, but we sunk down to #2 and recently down to #3, show your heRO pride and we'll be back to being #1 in no time!
  
  Short guide to making a RMS review:
  • Go to http://ratemyserver.net/index.php?page=w...sname=heRO
    
  • It will mention you must register, click on Register Here
    
  • Complete the registration form with a valid email
    
  • Check your email for the registration code
    
  • Login with your registration code
    
  • Go to http://ratemyserver.net/index.php?page=w...sname=heRO again
    
  • Enter the score you deem appropriate in each category and leave a message to explain said score
    
  • Submit your review and you're done, thanks!
    
  
  If you have made a review before but it is over 6 months old it has expired and no longer counts toward our total, a renewal would be much appreciated, just login, delete and remake your heRO review ^_^
  
  Note: Make sure you comply with RMS Terms of Service, goes without saying but no vulgarity or spam and such.
  
  
• Invite Friends
  What better time to invite your friends, with the increased rates they can get started with ease and all the events will provide for fun entertainment to both old timers and newcomers alike.
  
  
• Help Newcomers
  You can do this all year long of course, but on this special occasion why not help someone start up their heRO life? Show them why we boast about having one of the friendliest and most welcoming community!
  
  
• Behave
  Make GMs and Mods life easier by giving them a week-long break XD avoid main drama, quarreling with other players and/or forum flames, of course this only applies to people who don't do this already.
  

Happy Birthday heRO! ^_^

7/7/4? Insanity! If only I had enough vacation time stored for a week-long break from work ">.>

Nice spread of events, Pandora. This is going to be quite fun

[Shikari]

Poring Smash and Thanatos ;D
Fairy Auction too, and quests too oh my.

Sounds like a crazy fun week coming up. Mayhaps a good time for me to help BF reach into his 90's on his rogue. Myself, I'll be leveling some alts I want to reach some higher levels too.

[Cirno]

Uhh... Most horrible timing ever... The one week of the year I have no time whatsoever (however... the weekend seems to become a 48 hr RO marathon to keep up with the quests)

[Motenai_Ronin]
