RE: Patch Changelog
Bug Fixes
- Attempted to fix an issue where the Costume Halloween Hat isn't visible on the login screen.
- Attempted to fix issue where winter scarves show as enlarged on the status window, etc.
- Fixed "Void Syndrome" issue with the DB Odin Temple Room.
- Fixed issue where Sir Melot's cutin was huge.
Visual Updates
The following visual effects have been updated or modernized:
- Level Up Angel: is now the new Ragnarok Online one. The Extended Class Angel remains the same, however.
- Holy Light/Holy Attribute Attack: Effect has been modernized slightly.
- Lightning Bolt: Edited it to be similar to the new Ragnarok Online one.
- Thunderstorm: Modernized the animation slightly and removed excessive particle effects.
- Storm Gust: Modernized the visual effect.
- Lord of Vermillion: Redid every visual image entirely. Probably the most complicated change of them all.
- Napalm Vulcan: Added a visual effect. It's minimalistic but noticeable due to the fact the game uses one of the effect for every target hit, which can become a bit flashy and laggy if you mob large amounts of targets.
- Bowling Bash: While the skill animation remains nearly identical, instead of using the shockwave trap lines like too many of the game's skills do, it uses a golden "slash" instead.
- Holy Cross: Changed the colors to that of the light allegiance.
- Pressure/Kyrie Eleison/Assumptio/Gospel: Updated the cross used for these skills' effects.
- Ice Meteor (Ninja Skill): Modernized the effect somewhat.
- Dragon Fire Formation (ninja skill): Looks like a proper explosion and not an upside down Lord of Vermillion.
- Lightning Crash: Revamped effect and drastically lowered the duration of the animation. The animation used to loop four times and lasted several seconds despite only being a single-hit skill.
- Fortune's Kiss: No longer pixel-y, and slightly more colorful so it differs from "Service For You".
- Apple of Idun: Slightly larger, gold-ish colored, no longer pixel-y white apples.
- Humming/Whistle/Drums of Battlefield/Reverberation: modernized the melody icons.
- Poem of Bragi: No longer pixelated scribblings. It now uses glowing runes of different colors.
- Voice of Siren: Looks like a real heart and not pixel gore. Note that currently no monster uses this skill.
- Chain Lightning: Modernized the skill animation using part of KRO's newer effects. Lost Dragon uses this skill.
- Dark Cross (NPC Skill) / Cross Strike (Ninja Skill): Changed the colors to that of the dark allegiance.
- Magical Attack: The skill's animation has been modernized to not be a simple blue "X". Anubis, Thanatos Dolor, and other mobs use this skill.
- Spirit Destruction (Mental Breaker): Updated the animation to be a small explosion instead.
- Slow Cast: The skill's animation image has been modernized. Notable monsters that use this skill are Necromancer, Rata, and Orcus.
- Poison Status: The pixelated pink cloud on players screen has been removed completely, as the purple color overlay on the player is enough indication of the poison status.
- Silence Attack: Removed some of the excessive animation and left only the "X" part of it, so that it's synchronized with the actual damage numbers.
- Stun Attack/Shield Charge: The skill doesn't use pixelated tiny crappy stars.
- Stun status: Doesn't use crappy stars either and is somewhat more noticeable.
- Sleep Attack/Lullaby: The "Z" was modernized and is slightly more noticeable.
- Sleep Status: No longer a tiny gray "z". All three "Z"s are now slightly more colorful and blink in and out all at once.
