The trials of heroes event is today (march 24th), good luck to all aspiring heroes! ^_^

The auction event is tomorrow (march 25th) after the WoE.

I reopened the 4th level of Geffen Dongeon, you can find all sorts of monsters there such as Violy, Fake Angel, Baphomet, Alice, Bloody Knight, etc.

Enjoy!

Guild Administrator: She will allow you to change leadership of a guild if a few conditions are met.
-The new guild leader has to be in guild.
-The new guild leader has to be online.
-You must spell the name of the new leader correctly.
-Woe must not be going on at the moment of the change.
-You must pay a fee of 200k for the change.

Tonight I'll be adding new hairstyles to the Styla Dyess NPC, 3 male and 5 female. I'll also correct some minor bugs.

I've also made some slight modifications to some of the monster drops.

Some fishy friends are visiting for April Fool, they'll be gone soon, so enjoy them while they're here!

Some little changes too:
~ Geffen 4 is now a "hero only" dongeon, you need to have at least 40 allegiance points to enter.
~ Moved the banker in Alberta to be close to the warper/healer.
~ A few more fixes, including healer for the toh NPCs which should speed up the process some more!

Speaking of ToH, the next one is on Friday the 13th of april, I hope you're not too supersticious

Oh and the Helm Quest (Blessed & Cursed) is comming very soon, either tonight(sunday) or tomorrow night(monday)!

The helm quest has finally been added. You can start it by talking to Balian, he is located in the west Prontera inn, on the 2nd floor. But beware, he will only talk to a hero!

The april patch is almost ready, if all goes well it will be released tomorrow (thursday) ^_^

There will be a maintenance on the server, next sunday morning (local time). The duration or exact start time of the maintenance are not yet decided, but be assured it will be as short as it is possible.

The reload included in the maintenance will provide a few fix to some items/npc.

The next TOH event is set to be on monday May 21st starting at 3 PM.

Can't wait to show you all what we got in store for the May patch ^_^

[GM-Pandora]

The maintenance is now done, you can connect back to the server ^_^

The update seems fine, altough you will not see anything new. Should you experience any unusual crash or weird behavior please report to me!

Server is back online.

Unfortunatly WoE had to be cancelled for today, but we'll be having a Guild VS Guild event instead ^_^

The server that we all play on is hosted on a computer located in my appartment. An electrician is coming tomorrow (tuesday) and perhaps wednesday too to make some repairs to the building, he will cut the electricity which will result in the server going down

I don't know at what time this will happen, all I can tell you is that I come back from work around 6 PM, the power should be back at that time and I can restart the server.

Unfortunatly this downtmie is out of my control, but I'm very sorry for the inconvenience!
