Aug 31th, 2023 | Scheduled System Maintenance(Added on August 31st)

Thank you very much for always playing GensoKishi Online.
We will be updating various points including our app during the maintenance on Thursday, August 31, 2023.
 

■Schedule:
August 31th, 2023, 05:00-10:00 (UTC)

■ Overview:

・Introduction of Enhancement Reroll Function:
A new menu option, 'Reforcge,' will be added under
Menu ⇒ Item Enhancement ⇒ Reforge.
This feature allows you to reroll enhancements.

The 'Reforge' function can only be applied to SR or higher base equipment. This feature allows you to reroll the results of randomly selected parameters that were drawn during equipment enhancement. When you enhance your equipment, you will have the option to redraw these parameters.

Rerolling can be performed using either of the following methods:

1. The same piece of equipment.
2. Experience points based on mROND and Mythril corresponding to the equipment's enhancement level.

In the case of option 1, the mROND cost will also be waived. For the mROND required in option 2 and the necessary experience points, please refer to the provided spreadsheet for details.

If you find the results of the randomly selected parameters unsatisfactory, we recommend considering the use of this feature.

・Regarding Known Issue with "Reroll" Function:
We will address this issue with an app update during the maintenance in mid-September. When performing a reroll after selecting a base equipment and attempting to reroll again immediately, the displayed content on the results screen compares with the parameters from the very first reroll, rather than the most recent one. This issue has been resolved for the WebGL (PC) version, but users of the iOS and Android app versions are kindly requested to await the fix in the upcoming app update. Please note that this issue does not affect the reroll results.

・Changes to Repair Costs for Base Equipment and Fashionable Gear:
We will be implementing adjustments to the repair costs of base equipment and fashionable gear, based on the testing conducted in the CS environment, into the live service.

For base equipment:

• Repair costs using mROND will increase for N, R, SR, and LR tiers.

For fashionable gear:

• Repair costs for N and R tiers will rise, while repair costs for SR and LR tiers will see a significant decrease.

These updates address the issue of repair costs not accurately reflecting the strength of base equipment and fashionable gear, as well as the challenge where the value of valuable SR and LR NFTs was not being appropriately recognized due to improper repair costs. Additionally, this aims to increase the demand for mROND within the service and alleviate the consumption of mMV, thereby optimizing the current balance of ROND and MV imports.

We greatly appreciate your understanding in this matter. Thank you very much for your continued support.

 

・Conclusion of GENSO Lucky Chance #1:
We would like to announce the end of GENSO Lucky Chance #1. The announcement of the winners and the distribution of NFTs will be conducted on September 6th.
We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who participated in the Chance purchases. Thank you very much.

・Drop Settings for Crafting Materials NFTs for SR Shoulder and Back Base Equipment:
Based on the testing conducted in the CS environment, we have established drop settings for NFT crafting materials required to create the following items:

• "Bushin's Favored Scarf"- SR Shoulder Equipment for Physical Jobs
• "Bushin's Favored Faulds"- SR Back Equipment for Physical Jobs
• "Majin's Favored Cloak"- SR Shoulder Equipment for Magical Jobs
• "Majin's Favored Mistletoe" - SR Back Equipment for Magical Jobs

These NFT materials will be dropped from various monsters. At present, the update allowing players to summon monsters using these materials will not be included.

Please note that this update is scheduled to be implemented in updates during mid-September to the end of September 2023.

We will provide the information on which monsters drop what in this spreadsheet.
For now, we kindly ask you to proceed with gathering the materials. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

・Change in Handling of Dragon Summoning Stones:
The required point count to summon the Fire Dragon, Wind Dragon, Water Dragon, Earth Dragon, and Dark Dragon will be reduced from 200 points to 100 points.

Furthermore, the following summoning stone fragments will be exportable as NFTs:

• Fire Dragon Callstone Shard
• Wind Dragon Callstone Shard
• Water Dragon Callstone Shard
• Earth Dragon Callstone Shard
• Dark Dragon Callstone Shard

■ Rule Change Regarding Attack Rights on Summoned Monsters
In order to prevent situations where the right to drops is taken by unrelated parties due to monsters being attacked or taken by surprise, we will be implementing a change where only the person who performed the summoning and their party members will have the right to attack the summoned monster.
Please be aware that individuals outside the party will not be able to perform attacks. We kindly ask for your understanding in advance.

・Adjustment of Monster Parameters in Dragon Towers:
In response to feedback regarding the high HP of the 5th floor boss monsters in the Emerald Tail Tower and Greywing Tower, which led to concerns about diminishing Combat Node (CND) quality and time efficiency, we are implementing changes.

To optimize difficulty while shortening combat duration, the HP of 5th floor boss monsters will be significantly reduced, while parameters like attack power will be increased. Additionally, the drop rates for SR and LR equipment from 5th floor boss monsters will be approximately doubled.

Considering the extended time needed to complete all five floors, we will reduce the HP of boss monsters on floors 1 to 4 to align more closely with the current timeframe.

However, with the decreased difficulty of boss monsters on floors 1 to 4, we will balance this adjustment by lowering the drop rates of SR and LR equipment.

These changes are being made to enhance overall gameplay balance and experience.

・Integration of Job Change NPCs and Placement in Elrond's Town:
We are integrating the job change NPCs into two characters and locating them in Elrond's Town.

• "Jokieu" : If you have ever advanced to an upper-level job, you can change to higher-tier jobs using this NPC.
• "Kehoe" : If you have ever advanced to a basic job, you can change back to basic jobs using this NPC.
• "Jochen"： You can receive job change quests from this NPC.

Additionally, "Jokieu" and "Kehoe" will also be available in the Elrond Shopping Mole and within the Dragon Gate area for your convenience.

・Update of material_exp in Metadata:
When depositing base equipment and fashionable gear into the dimensional storage, a modification will be made to store the value called "material_exp," which represents the experience gained when using the equipment as material during enhancement, in the metadata of the NFT. This update will allow you to view the mentioned metadata in future updates of the marketplace.

Please note that items left in the dimensional storage before this maintenance will not be automatically updated.

・Adjustment of Excessively Loud Sound Effects

・Fix for Character Slot Purchase Issue Under Specific Conditions

・Adjustment of ROND Transfer Timing to ROND Export Pool:
Until August 31, 2023, ROND imported from the previous day has been transferred to the ROND Export Pool between 10:00 and 11:00 every day. However, due to the manual nature of the transfers, there have been cases where the transfers couldn't be completed within the one-hour window.

To address this, we are changing the time window to be from 10:00 to 15:00 every day. While we intend to continue the transfers at similar timings as before, there might be situations that cause transfers to occur after 11:00. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

As stated above,
We look forward to your continued support for GensoKishi Online.
