Test server online

CipSoft has launched a private test server with the purpose to test the vocation balancing (new spells, new hits...). On this test server no new hunting locations or anything else is added, just the vocation balancing. We're currently awaiting a reply from CipSoft if it's allowed to post screenshots, so check us again soon to find out more.

Update coming? A review of what we know.

As the summer update was very soon this year, maybe the Christmas update will be soon too. What do we know untill now? We know Cip made all hunting places a little nicer, that there will be a Nomads dungeon, that there will be a salesman and that there will be new houses. Of course also the vocation balancing has been a topic, but actually we don't know much about the update yet. Below are the pictures that we got untill now.

Test server: Part VII

Thanks to Maverick the hunter for the screenshots of the new underwater world, The Frozen Trench.

Test server: Part VI

In the meantime I have completed enough quest to fight in the arena. I have completed the easy and medium difficulty and a part of the hard difficulty. Here are the screenshots of the boss monsters you encounter in the easy difficulty (really easy, a level 30 can do it).

Screenshots of the Barbarian Camp:







More screenshots here.

Test server: Part IV

Okay, okay because many people asked me for it, I'll post some arena screenshots. I can not enter the arena myself yet, I'll do this later when there are not 500000 people waiting to do the quest to enter it.

More screenshots (e.g. of Frost Dragons and Ice Golem) can be found at our forum.

Test server: Part III

A story tutors should check out and report if needed:

Yesterday I cheated an NPC by traveling to an island I shouldn't go to because I didn't do the quest yet. Result: I was stucked :(. Gamemaster Dazetih and GM Undercover ;) came and helped me to get back to civilization.



As I'm no tutor I couldn't report this bug and I'm not sure it is a bug. The gamemaster would report it, but I'll explain how I ended up at the island so tutors can check it out and report if needed.

1. Go to the NPC at the south of Northport (a sailorman)
2. Wait untill someone is talking to him
3. Say: please bring me to Tyrsung
4. You land up on the island without doing the quest ;p
