Open Beta Launch — x1200 [NEW]

On 27 October at 19:00 [GMT+2] the Open Beta Test of the new Interlude x1200 [NEW] season opened. The official season launch is 30 October at 19:00 [GMT+2].

The Open Beta is three days on a live server: build your character, run enchants, try the new mechanics and tell us if anything misbehaves. Everything you find, we still have time to fix before launch — that is exactly what the beta is for.

How the game starts

• Level 40 and a full C-grade set the moment you create a character
• Starting town — Goddard
• Rates: Exp/Sp x1200, Adena x1500, Drop x1
• Premium account: +50% Exp/Sp, adena and drop, +5% skill enchant chance

Class balance — the season's main work

Seventeen third professions that were short on damage against monsters received the passive skill Monster Hunter: +50% PvE damage. It arrives on its own when you log in — nothing to learn.

• Tanks — Phoenix Knight, Hell Knight, Eva's Templar, Shillien Templar
• Daggers — Adventurer, Wind Rider, Ghost Hunter
• Dancers — Sword Muse, Spectral Dancer
• Healers — Cardinal, Hierophant, Eva's Saint, Shillien Saint
• Dwarves — Fortune Seeker, Maestro
• Duelist and Grand Khavatari

A word on healers. Might of Heaven is no longer undead-only — it now hits any monster. It does not work on players, so nothing changed in PvP. Hierophant and Shillien Saint barely had the skill before; now the whole level ladder is open to them, the same as for Bishop and Elder.

PvP and skills

• Erase — the chance to unsummon a servitor is down from 80% to 30%
• Turn Undead — instant death cut to 1%
• Fear now works on champions
• The buff limit is up to 23, and Hot Springs diseases are no longer cleared by the buffer button
• A new PvP zone — the first hall of the Imperial Tomb

Auto-farm

• Its own panel: targets, radius, skills, champions — all in one window
• Free hours every day, coupons after that
• Bulk lot: 10 coupons for 30 Coin of Luck
• You decide whether champions are attacked

Champions and drop

• Champion drop chance is now multiplied by your own modifiers — premium, items, bonuses
• The drop page shows the champion chance with those modifiers already applied

Costumes

Six new costumes in the donate shop at 20 Coin of Luck each: White Knight Costume, White and Black Assassin Costumes, Crimson Captain, Red Musketeer Costume, NC Dinos Uniform. Next to them is the Try on button: put a costume on and look it over before you buy. The Kelbim costume is back on sale for 25 Coin of Luck.

Clans

• Up to 27 members in a clan
• An alliance of two clans

Small things you will notice

• The MP potion restores 1500 instead of 1000
• Pandora's showcase: rewards colour-coded by value, the chests cleared of filler
• Quick panel: the .top, .topclan and .attendance commands
• Email confirmation and password recovery now work on the site

Olympiad during the beta

So that everyone gets to see it, during the Open Beta the Olympiad runs every day, with matches from 12:00 to 00:00. After the official launch the schedule returns to normal.

Found something odd? Tell us. During the beta every small thing you report still has time to be fixed before the season starts.

The server is already up — come on in.
