New changes to the General Event were recently announced.
These are supposedly the changes for 7.56 update.

Right away the new drops include:

Sephirot (Any)


Eternal Stone



These two items can be gotten from either general events.
Mortals & Celestials will have easier time making gods/Celestials now =p


The mobs from the Celestial Generals also have a chance to drop 
any jewels that can be made with a hunter.
(except shield jewel?)


Have fun checking this out! ^_^

WYD Progression Stopped

On October 7th WYD Global receieved a mysterious update.
It was actually the 7.56 update that was announced 2month prier.
The combination of this patch & the Br hacker really hurt the game.


As it stands the servers are stable but the patch has not yet been fixed.

There are a couple of problems that have halted progress for players
 but please note the following:

These problems whether due to a patch update
or a patch bug will lead to this game's end if not fixed soon.

What are these problems?
Most Celestials know by now.
The two main points as of now.

Nightmare M
  •  Still having a Lv restriction. 

As of now Nightmare M are bugged so the mobs stop coming
out after some time even if all NPC's are alive.




~A Few Notes!~
All the updates of WYD are set to be
current with the situation of their Korean Version game.
Our WYD Global only has 4 server compared to 10 from Kr. WYD
& even that is still greater than ours due to their amount of players.

So as it stands we get a patch that is set make changes based of the players of Kr server.
Doesn't something seem off here?

Of course!
There are problems which the GMs have to make changes to deal with.
(Less people playing- the main one)



So what does this Lv limit have to do with anything?
Well we already have to deal with patches made for a different server,
so it a way these updates are more like "restrictions" but at the same time
our GMs still add more restriction to that, the Lv Limit.

Most of the changes in the patch are due to a high amount of lv 200's cele in the Kr Sv
but where do we stand? We can't even get to that point because people cannot lv up.
(This isn't even including how much lower our exp is set )




Clues
  • 11 People register restriction
  • Lowered reward on Last clue

If the other one doesn't end WYD Global, this will.

Each update it seems clues keep getting worse.
It's not just 1 thing, but 2 changes each time to hinder players.

Not only is the gold reward lessened at the end,
now it's even harder to get to the last stage.

11 people register. Yes perfect for our WYD Global!
Why not just also say to be "good higher lv player you need to coin"?


All players relied on doing clues for powders, glits, locks, etc.
Now no one can do them so obviously this needs to be changed.
(This isn't including how the drop rate system isn't fixed either)




Anyway but maybe who knows?
I may be wrong, seeing it from only my perspective.
Please comment below !
I want to hear others thoughts too! ^_^

Wiseman Stone Epidemic


They are everywhere! 


One of the best things to C.C or hunt in WYD has been infested with a disease!


 Molochs used to drop good things like
water n, laks, corals, & harness horse essence. 

But now! 0.0

Every single drop it seems is another Wise Man stone! =o


These stones drop almost every minute now lol
So they are totally worthless,
maybe a patch bug?

The worst thing is the combo of getting your bags clogged up with them
& that they sell for close to zero gold. :(

They are only used for trying +10 & making extraction crystals.


Am I missing something? =p

I guess we will see more extractions on sale from now on.

Wished they doubled as a mystery stone,
That would be useful ^_^.

7.56 Update Changes - Part II

Hey guys!

So it has been almost 2 week since we unexpectedly got this update.
Lots of people were surprised by the changes, good or bad.

The GMs have also set up their system for answering questions concerning 
the update as "wait until the problems are resolves".

Even so the GMs have promised to release full patch details
soon on their site once the patch is fixed.
But, why wait? =p


Update Changes Part II



PK System

PK vs. Ally
You will no longer get frags/killpoint when pking a person
that is in the same kingdom as you.


So this means don't pk your kingdom !! =p 


Citizen PK
PK-ing someone from a different citizen than your own
does not give you an frag/kill point anymore.

(Not that you can tell who is different citizen now)


PK Penalty
Dying in PK now means losing all of your frags.


This is a pain for higher levels, no more C.C afk.
Full time Molochs. lol


Capes

Citizen Design
Once again the developers removed the cape design.
 Maybe they don't want people to choose their server based on it??


The Celestials are back to the old standard design on their cape.


Mortals, Gods, & even Hardcores no longer have any design on it.


Refined Capes
Okay so not really, but!
It has returned again. 

Each 1k frags you have gives your cape a +1 refined look
so 9k would make it look +9.


UI Changes

Auto Party
You can now set an auto party feature on the new client.
To use it press P to open the party window
After that press the cube box once.

The auto-party is set once that's done!
You'll automatically get in the party by the next person who parties you.


Skill Changes

Foema

Ressurect

This skill now only uses a certain amount of mana when used not all.


Transknight

Slow Slash
(bugged)
This skill is now part of the Magic Sword section.
It took the spot of old skill Double Swing.


Double Swing
(bugged)
This skill moved to the Faith Section 
taking the slot Slow Slash used to have.

(~Note!~)
The two skills above dont work well yet.
The skills icons haven't been changed in game yet.
Right now Slow Slash does the Double Swing animation and dmg,
& Double Swing does Slow Slash animation but no effect.


New NPC

Several new NPC's have appeared in game.

Cecilia is next to the Gold Dragon

FameAbita is next to Ability Master.
Maybe something to do with fame? (:

What they do it yet to be seen ! =o


Clues
  
Clue Bosses now drops higher essence.

Clue +2
Clue +2's boss now drops +3 parade essence!


Clue +4
Clue +4 DS boss drops Uni essence +5 ^_^!



Clue +5
This Clue used to drop Griffin essence.

Now it drops a "Fire Tiger" essence +7

~Note!~
Essence with a + increase success rate &
if they fail on an even mount level,
mount level does not go down.


New Lv. 200 Quest
There is a new Quest for Lv. 200 Celestials/Soul


This quest makes a special stone for Celestials.
A topic for a future blog :)


Chaos Cube

Azran weaponry NPC now sells the Chaos Cube (N,M,A)

They are restricted to Mortals and low Lv. Gods under 200.

That's all for now guys =p
Hope you enjoyed!
Maybe there will be a part III ? 
(depends on feedback ^-^)

Server Roll Back

 Hey Guys! 

For some days GMs hinted that of a possible server Roll Back.
This means the server would be taken back to Oct 7th. 
So anything done since the patch update would be gone.

But!
The GMs confirmed that there would be no Roll Back!
 You guys can continue playing!!
 
The decision was made by the WYD administrators. 

GMs did address the "duping" problems.
 
 
As it says  above try not to buy any "duped" items
Common "duped" items include 
 
120 Uni 
 
+12 Axes

The GMs are deleting all the "duped" items ASAP
so within a week we shouldn't be worried about them in game.

Our GMs also confirmed that the "duping" players have been permanently banned ^_^.
