Howdy there Reso people!!! You've waited a lot for these new updates and to tell you frankly, a lot of changes have been happening now at GE.
So to keep this thread short, ill just be posting some of the changes that iv seen in today's v2.9 GE version.
Major changes:
1. New UPC: Calyce is now available. This Royalist spy is seeking information on Gerard Lauren for Princess Gabriela. She may need your help to successfully complete her mission. You can find her in the Pegadilla in the Port of Coimbra. To get her, just talk to the merc guards beside Calyce and do the quest and give him 50MPs for her card. www.playge.sg/wiki/index.php?title=Calyce
2. For the first time players can raise a pet of their very own. This pet will follow you to the ends of the earth and back, picking up any items that drop and putting them in your bag. Speak with the Pet Expert in Outside Bahia for more information. For the pet quest guide on how to get pets: try this link on dev's thread: www.swordofthenewworldwiki.com/page/Pets
3. Apprentice System: This new system allows high level players help low level players level up. Using this system will stop the high level player from earning XP but the low level player will earn double. In addition the high level player will gain reputation by assisting the lower level player.
Market changes:
1. Bellem's Box has been updated to include a host of new upgraded items.
Here's a tip on how to get good items on bellems:
a. Farm gold pieces on torche FT or any lvl50-60 maps, then convert these gold pieces at the Golden Well at Theurengenwald Channel 1 just outside Auch City to get bellem's boxes.
b. If u got enough vis and dont wanna waste time farming, buy gold pieces at the Precious Metal Merchant at Auch at 165 vis each gold pieces.
c. For better rares, use the bellems at towns like Auch, or maps that have high lvl mobs using vet/expert chars, in these way the chances of the items that the bellems drop is same as the rarity of items in that map. But that doesnt mean u can get elite recipes or 100items with it, it only boost the items random rate. In my case, iv used 100 bellems at coimbra and get only items from lvl30-70, few mission lobby 2s, and cheap gems; at Auch, using 100 bellems again i got 1 skyblue dye, 4 keys of catherina salon, 2 keys of dungeon ruins, HQ gems and a bunch of chipping 80-88 eqz.
d. If u dnt want to use em, sell them at a hefty price at MM or use them to get rares and sell them for better profiteering, can u imagine, selling 2HQ gems worth 20m each from only a bulk of bellems.
e. Or if your really that a spender, buy bellem's boxes directly now at any tool dealer at any town for 10k vis each.
2. New currency now applicable,u can now purchase or sell items trhough trade, NPCs and MM by the use of Feso.
3. Microphones and Megaphones are no longer available and cannot be purchased anymore at item dealers, hence, they a considered premium items now and can be bought 200 and 100 GP respectively at Leticia. Too expensive eh? so better save those mics now if u still hv em.
