A new client has been released for heRO, and with it come many changes. You must uninstall the old heRO and download the new client to connect to heRO. As usual, we will have the full installer, and then a BGM folder for those who care about BGM. We recommend that you continue to whitelist the new heRO directory on your Antivirus, as the heRO patcher may be identified as a virus (which is no different than the current heRO client.) This new client will not only bring lots of quality-of-life changes but also unlock a lot of further development potential for heRO. Please look forward to all the future customizations and new features that the new client will allow heRO staff team to develop and expand upon this game!

With the massive number of changes and improvement in quality of life, we ask everyone to please report all issues in the heRO discord if anything behaves differently compared to the old client and is not mentioned in the changelog. heRO discord will open its community thread feature for easy reporting of issues without support tickets- so you can see if another player has already reported your problem. We remind all players that if there's anything that's not mentioned in the changelog and you decide to keep a change private to your mechanical benefits, ''that will be treated as bug abuse''. It is to all players and the server's benefit to report any bugs and issues so they can be addressed swiftly.

* If the target of a spell moves out of line of sight, the spell is cancelled but you will get SP and catalyst cost refunded

* Auto-feed on pets does not work (does work on Homunculus)
−
* Mob pathfinding has updated according to official emulation changes, with some customization: this results in mobs' walking differently compared to the current client and they update their target finding faster. Unfortunately, this makes them scatter faster compared to heRO's old behaviour (but not immediately give up chasing a hidden Assassin either, unlike other servers). We have customized it so the mobs are more likely to stay grouped up when they are chasing a target that has disappeared so it is to the hiding player's advantage, but it is still not the same as heRO's current implication where all mobs walk to the same cell where the player is hiding and stays there for a second or two.
+
−
* Finger offensive is a single multi-hit attack (similar to Sonic Blow)
+
−
* Storm Gust knockback will follow Hercules's emulation changes instead of official's "random" Storm Gust knockback (South-west portion of Storm Gust will tend to knockback to the northeast. The edges are most likely to push things away from the Storm Gust.)
+
−
* Ice wall will follow iRO's implementation instead of Hercules or kRO's emulation when it is cast directly on a non-boss mob: the mob only leaves ice wall via the west and south. If the target of their chase is north or east of them, they will try for 220 loops in an idle mode while being allowed to use chase skills. What is the duration of 220 loops vary depending on what the monsters see as options and how fast the server processes these possibilities. If it's a boss-flag mob, the mobs will be stuck in Ice wall as if it's an ankle snare until Ice wall expires.
+
−
* Frenzy bug where Frenzy cancels all self-buffs in current heRO client should be fixed
+
−
* Miracle of the Sun, Moon and Stars have been buffed to have a 0.1% chance instead of 0.02%
+
−
* Union of the Sun, Moon and Stars no longer cost a skill point to learn it: it will appear and disappear depending on your soul link status similar to Beast Strafing
+
−
* Emergency Recall can no longer be used outside of War of Emperium
+
−
* Monsters that are invincible (such as Great Demon Baphomet and Lost Dragon) are immune to reflect or Tarot Card of Fate's fixed damage, even if the client displays that they take damage

Latest revision as of 18:37, 26 November 2024

Thanksgiving 2024

Thanksgiving 2024 has a short quest that starts in Prontera, which leads you to Yuno and its nearby fields to hunt the Super Turkey! This quest counts as completion if you are nearby, so don't be shy to party with your friends in a large group to take it down together. Turkey can fight back, especially against commonly seen tactics, so if you are having difficulty, try to vary your skills or utilize some less-seen classes!

For your efforts, there are 2 new costumes available: the Costume Singing Bird or the Costume Gryphon Hairband. You can also get 20 prize medals and 1 Autumn Mouse pet egg!

End of heRO Anniversary Events

As heRO's anniversary ends, the server rates have reverted to normal: heRO will be back to 5/5/5 in rates, with 10x for all OCA cards.

Kaldheim Arena's number of Prize Medals have been lowered from its increased rate: upon finishing all 10 waves of the arena, the number of medals decreases from 30 to 20.

Port Malaya monsters, including Buwaya, no longer drops Prize Medals regularly (though Buwaya Instance still gives out Prize Medals as rewards for all players who are part of the instance when Buwaya dies.)

Database Note

GM team is aware that the heRO database (https://hero-server-db.herokuapp.com/) is currently outdated as it does not have Port Malaya monsters/gears, along with no info on 3 legendary player gears (Fleetly Fading, Bugcatcher, and Unnerfed Hunter Traps). We are still having tech difficulties to get some scripts to work in the post-client update environment. We'll need to think of some new ways to publish information for new items and mobs. It's not heRO's intention to withhold the stats and skills of the new content.

Balance Changes

MVPs' cooldown of skills are down determined by their individual entries instead of cooldown by skills. For example, if a monster has multiple conditions to cast Jupitel Thunder, then each conditions to cast Jupitel Thunder will have its own cooldown instead of Jupitel Thunder sharing its cooldown. This should make some MVPs be more difficult again compare to the large scale AI change that made MVPs significantly easier. In general, this means MVPs have a lot more skills to use, though compare to pre-client update in June 2024, MVPs are still not as likely to lead things off with a skill to start the fight.

Monsters with specific counter attacks will try to switch target to the one who triggered the counter if possible, instead of triggering the counter attack against its current target. For example, say that a Sniper and a Paladin are in a party against a monster where the Paladin is tanking the attack and the Sniper is spamming Double Strafe against it. The monster retaliates any ranged attack with Firebolt. Before this change, the Sniper can freely spam Double Strafe safely, as the monster's Firebolt retaliation will be casted on its normal target- the Paladin. Now, the monster will attempt to use the Firebolt counterattack against the Sniper instead. The tank will also need to re-draw its attention. This change in AI is also a response to make monsters more difficult to fight again since the client update.

"Fleetly Fading" now disables the user's HP regen, following trend of all "red build" equipment.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed some location info for some costumes which are inaccurate

Other Changes

  • Niflheim Kafra has a new cutin art! #priorities
  • Not a bugfix as it's still bugged, but at least now Ring of Friendship warns players that the exp sealing part of the effect is bugged. For now, guess you can get away with a free +3 all stats leveling accessory at lower levels until it's fixed.


Known Issue/Bugs

  • Buwaya Cave's treasure box weakness may spawn multiple weakness points if multiple people from the party talks to the NPC inside the box at the same time
