New hairstyles and colors

We got the hairstyles and colors yesterday Sept. 23.  Both from Cash Shop Item at 100gpots (color) and 200gpots (style) - In Fenrir this cost 20m Ruppees.-  There's  A LOT of colors and 4 different hairstyles + original styles in case u wanna go back to ur origins.   You can see how the colors and styles looks like in the "View Details" options.  Hairs and colors dosnt add extra stats.

 

I took some pictures in game of some hairs. Enjoy!

Oh! I also saw this yesterday @ Rondo ^^

About the Harlequin Pet

I have NO full info about this pet, but I gonna tell you what I know and heard:

1. This pet DOSNT drop
2. DO NOT attack - is just a deco.  Doesn't have attack skills, just passives.
3. Its seems it dosnt have differents evolutions - just one - I haven't seen other evo's
4. I heard u can get it by combining enchanted pets (aka dura pets)

Now the pics

If someone of my readers own a Harlequin, plz leave a comment with info about this pet.

News - WQ

The witch quest now lvl you up from lvl 70 to 90 (not lvl 88 anymore) I did it few days ago with my Evoker and now shes lvl 90! Im so excited about it, now i can work on my other pets.  I also made a stage 1 blue pixie, trying out how the dura thing work with pets. Also, took angel card and failed 3 times (using tpro) with +4 card lvl 10 taming.  I also tamed other pets, but ill add that later on the Taming post.

Pre-Patch Notes - Epic VII: Awakening

Epic VII: Awakening

Release Date 09/14/10

New Features

• A mysterious gatekeeper holds the secret to accessing new Hidden Dungeons. Find the gatekeeper in Crystal Valley, Palmir Plateau, the Sanctuary, or any of the shrines on the Veiled Island to open a portal to these difficult (but rewarding) dungeons!
• The Veiled Island has been expanded greatly! Several new areas have been added for high level players to explore and conquer.
• The Death Tyrant, a new pet, can now be tamed. This undead knight possesses many unique skills to strike fear into the hearts of your enemies.
• The Creature Enhancement system has been added. Visit the Creature Enchanter in town for the supplies needed to combine your pet cards into enhanced versions! Plus, even on a failed pet combination you may have the last laugh....
• The guild system has been overhauled. A new UI with new functions allows for a much improved guild experience.

Feature Improvements

• New items have been added that can be combined to create artifacts for enhanced pets to equip.
• New quests have been added to provide rewards for clearing various dungeons.
• Four additional hot bars have been added. Be prepared for every situation! O.O
  
• New Cube Chips will now drop from monsters. These items can be combined to create special cubes that can enchant items for more than one enhancement bonus per combination.
• The Ursa Caverns merchant now has an expanded inventory.
• Players can now choose whether to display helms and decorative items on other players.
• Powerful monsters should now drop more Essence of Power items. LOL WTF? xD
  
• When combining Essence of Power items, you now will get a bonus when combining 1,000 or 10,000 items at a time.

Tweaks and Fixes

• Several stat formulas have been changed. Dexterity and Agility will add to ranged attack power. Attack speed will increase with Agility. MP Regen will increase with Wisdom. Some other values have been tweaked.
• Some blacksmith upgrade stone prices have changed.
• Some NPCs in town are sporting new looks for Fall. Fashion npc? lol
  
• Some ethereal items have had their bonuses tweaked.
• Ethereal items now glow when enchanted.
• Some soul stones have had their stats improved.
• The locations of the Cancel and Confirm buttons have been reversed. Now my life is much better!
  
• Fixed a bug that caused monster HP or loot items to sometimes not appear.
• Fixed a bug that caused certain decimal values to always round down. All decimals should now round to the nearest integer.

These patch notes are not final and are subject to change.

Those in red are the ones that made me laugh... ^^

Rappelz Epic 7: Awakening is coming on September 14th!

For more information about our new version check out our mini-site here.

Veiled Island A fiercer, larger, and more dangerous Veiled Island has been revealed in Epic VII: Awakening! The soul of the ice maiden Kaia greets the sun again for the first time in a thousand years and with her comes the chaotic rebirth of a long forgotten land. Everything from Marduka invaders to giant killer insects roams the Veiled Island now, and only true heroes can unearth the secrets of Kaia and her frozen lake.

Guild Update

With Epic VII: Awakening comes the much anticipated Guild revamp! An entirely new and improved guild interface will greet you as you enter Epic VII. New features include guild member ranks and notes, better support for functions such as announcements and guild websites, and integrated Time Attack Raid organization! Plus, you can spy some previews of upcoming features like the Guild Application system planned for the next part of Epic VII!

Hidden Dungeons

In Epic VII: Awakening, new challenges and treasures await dedicated adventurers! Secret dungeons have appeared around the world, and the only way in is to find their elusive - and furry - gatekeepers.

New Pet: Death Tyrant
The Death Tyrant is a suit of armor that has become possessed by a restless spirit that seeks revenge on the living. As they grow, they recover more pieces of their suit of armor and finally gain a spectral horse to ride on. Death Tyrants are vicious creatures that focus on dealing melee damage with a quick attack speed, and they can afflict their enemies with a variety of debuffs and drain health with their attacks.

What you think about this changes? Can this affect your game play?

Epic 7

Hi everyone, here are some videos I found on Youtube about Epic 7. This is Korean Test Server, nothing is 100% for sure yet.

So first, we got this post from Itoki (Rappelz USA gm)

Coming in Epic VII!

by itoki » 10 May 2010 16:36

Hi folks,

We've got a little preview of a few of the features coming in Epic VII, due later this year

*Updated Guild System - The Guild UI will no longer be web-based, and will instead be fully integrated into the Rappelz client. There will be a new Guild Ladder implemented along with new guild functions, though we do not have detailed information on these at this time

*High Level Revamp - Most notably, the Veiled Island will be expanded to include approximately three times as much space and monster slaying action.
*Hard Mode Dungeons - More difficult copies of all current dungeons will be created to offer a new challenge for dungeon parties. These will NOT replace the current dungeons. These dungeons will have harder monsters and better item drops than the normal dungeons.
*Decimal Fix - Items such as soul stones which provide fractional stats will work correctly instead of always rounding down. Thus, an item that gives you 0.9% crit ratio will give you the appropriate crit ratio instead of giving you nothing.
*New Monsters - New foes to test your mettle, including Tyrant, an undead knight.
*New Items - Including a new Dice Cube - a strike or defense cube that can upgrade your gear for a random amount between +1 and +3 instead of always providing only a +1 benefit.
*Master Classes - These class upgrades will provide new skills for your character. They may not arrive with the first Epic VII update, but are in development and we will provide more information as we receive it!

Please note that the release date of Epic VII has not been announced. We currently do not have an estimate on when Epic VII will go live.
