Server Changelog

[GM-Ciar]

Important Note: Due to the unexpected downtime, map updates listed in this thread took effect earlier than intended. As the latest patch has not yet been released, players might encounter issues such as seeing Alberta or Morroc NPCs in inaccessible areas. This issue should be fixed in the following days upon Pandora's release of the patch.

Thanatos Basement
• The Quah-Nomag NPC that opens Thanatos Tower now uses a different sprite for easier clicking.
• Quah-Nomag's dialogue was consolidated so as not to have to click so much to hear his story.
• Quah-Nomag now informs if Orcus is alive or dead, so players don't have to wait for his taunts to know.
• Thanatos' Basement's exit warp was moved to an appropriate location rather than the very edge of a wall.
• Orcus' map and tower-wide taunts announcements were changed slightly.
• For context: Orcus has a 1 in 120 chances to respawn every 5 minutes upon its defeat. It can theoretically not spawn for days. As of this maintenance, the maximum time Orcus can go without spawning is 8 hours. This means that there is still a 1 in 120 chance to respawn every 5 minutes, but has an assured spawn 8 hours after its defeat.
  
  Morroc City & Sograt Desert
• The desert city of Morroc has now been restored to its former glory!
• Morroc and Morroc Ruins NPCs have been moved around. Their dialogues have also been modernized, some with chronicles lore, others with updated directions to places like Ant Hell, etc.
• Morroc Guides no longer mention the mercenary guild.
• The Assassin Guild NPC dialogues have been modernized slightly.
• The Continental Guards Quest NPCs, Chief Balrog and the Continental Official were moved from original spot in Morroc's Town Square. They are now in the center of town, near Morroc Palace.
  
  Lutie Town
• The Lutie Town NPCs now have some modernized dialogues that acknowledge the rest of the Lutia region.
• The Snowysnow quest can now be started by all classes by simply talking to the snowman in Lutie. This previously could only be started by archers undergoing the bard job change quest due to a minor bug that supposedly affected officials for a long time now. For those doing the job change quest, simply talk to the NPC again after he asks you to complete the quest if you've already done it.
• Completing the Snowysnow quest now rewards you with 15 Lutia Reputation points.
• Moved the clown in Lutie town slightly to the west, to give the utility NPCs more space between each other.
• Moved the chef assistant slightly to the north. It should still be easily clickable from the respawn point.
  
  Alberta Town
• Alberta town's harbor has been remodeled and extended!
• NPC dialogues have been modernized, with some incorporating the server's lore and customs into their chitchat.
• NPCs have been added to the new section of town.
• The Dewata, Faeheim, Lutia, and Malangdo warpers have been moved to the northern area of town.
• The Neko Island warper was removed from Alberta. The one located in Malangdo Island's pier is now the only way to reach this small dungeon.
• The Malangdo warper in Izlude was removed.
• The Crimson Curse quest NPC "Lady Hanae Kazane" has been moved to alberta 156 149.
• A tool dealer and two other shops have been added to the harbor's round kiosk shop.
• A kafra was added to the harbor, near the round kiosk.
  
  Guild Storage
• All Kafras that offered regular storage services now offer guild storage services as well. Guild Quest is still required to be completed for this service, which for technical simplicity, now applies to Castle Kafras as well.
• Guild Admins in town have been removed. For Guild Leader changes, please see the Guild Storage Quest NPC in the Kafra Headquarters in Aldebaran.
• Guild Leader change cost has been lowered from 400,000 to 200,000.
  
  Item Updates
• Soheon Card now gives +5% ASPD and 15 ATK instead of its previous ASPD effect to daggers only.
• Lora Card now gives Crit Rate +20 and Decreases damage with Critical Attacks by 5% instead of its previous fanat-like effect for maces (regular mob card effect on a miniboss card).
• Elvira Card now gives +5% MATK and -5% Max HP instead of +5% more damage with wind and ghost spells.
  
  NPC Updates
• Removed the official Hair Dyer, Clothes Dyer, and Hairstyler, from Prontera and Lighthalzen. For context: They had only the official styles available and required a ridiculous amount of items. Now we have empty spaces in buildings that HeRO can use for future custom NPCs.
  
  Quality of Life
• Added restock points on every town's main respawn point. Thanks to Medjai for finding all the coordinates! Feedback is most welcome regarding this topic, see this thread for more info.
