Legend XI - Preview

I wasn't expecting many changes on the Legend XI of kSRO, so I had no hurry (we babbe and me had also problems running the kSRO client lately), but when I finally got in I got amazed of so many stuff that changed, even while I didn't logged my character yet.
I'm going to prepare a full entry with all the features I'm finding on the new update, but there are so many and very confusing, so you have to give me some time to get, translate and organize those info. The whole entry will be done around this Sunday.
But for advance you some stuff, here you are some important things that I've found at this moment:

- Traders are gone forever from the job system.
- Old job NPC's doesn't work anymore, there are new 2 NPC's on each town
- All transport pets (including Item Mall transports) are gone, instead you now have a pet that is summoned with a job skill.
- Thieves do the trade, they transport the stuff now (not tested yet the Hunter side, will be confirmed this Sunday)
- There are job levels, mastery and many skills.
- New quickslots and UI
And much more!

But the complete information will come this Sunday, hehe.
Some preview pictures ^^


And a new misterious item on Grocery Shop, what it can be?...


Notice about my level and icons on the last picture :3

[Guide] How to obtain the Nova A&B Egypt weapons.

As I promised when the update came out, I'm going to explain how to obtain the new Egypt weapons.

-----------------------------------

Differences between them

There is a total of 2 Egypt weapons. Know by their identificator on the game files (type A and B).
Stats between normal D11 weapon and Egypt weapons.

Type A:
22.3% stronger
Type B:
29.5% stronger

The main difference are the phy/mag/reinforces. All of them are higher than the normal D11 weapons. The only thing that doesn't change is the critical/blocking ratio.
We can know what kind of weapons are in-game by it's green indicator.

Type A Weapons: Power
Type A Shield: Protection
Type B Weapons: Fight
Type B Shield: Guard

There are 2 types of every A and B items, normal and Seal of Nova. I don't think an explanation of the differences between the normal and the nova ones is necessary ^^'
Having this in mind, we can proceed explaining how to get them.

How to obtain the Egypt Weapons

Type A

The A type is the easiest to get respect the others. There are 2 ways for obtain them:

1. By quest
2. By drop

1. By quest


The quest for obtain the A type weapons is called "The Sea of Resentment Collection". You can obtain it if you are over level 101. The NPC who gives this quest it's the Governor Senmut, in Alexandria.
Basically you only have to obtain all the talismans for complete the Collection Book of The Sea of Resentment. The talismans are dropped from the Treasure Boxes that spawns on the Forgotten World during the instances (randomly on specific spots, there is a max of 2 boxes per instance and sometimes they doesn't spawn), and from the last unique of the 101-110 instance, called Ghost Sereness.
This quest can be done only once, this means you only can obtain 1 Egypt weapon with this method.
The Talismans of the Sea of Resentment Collection Book are:

Broken key | Large tong | Phantom harp | Evil's heart


Vindictive spirit's bead | Hook Hand | Commander's patch | Sereness's tears


All of them should have the same drop ratio but some ppl says the most difficult to get is the Sereness's tears.
Once you have registed all the talismans on your Collection Book, go talk with Governor Senmute and he will let you choose the Egypt A Seal of Nova weapon that you preffer (you can't choose a shield as far as I know).

2. By drop

As simple as that. You can get it dropped when you kill Ghost Sereness on 101-110 instance. The drop rate of it is very low, and you can also get normal A weapon/shield instead of Seal of Nova.

Type B

This is the hardest type to get, the only way for get it is as drop, same as the type A. Only the Ghost Sereness from 101-110 instance drop it. The chance for get a Nova type B weapon from that unique is very low. As many stars have the instance, the chances of drop are higher.
So basically the only way for obtain it its pure luck, and do a lot of Forgotten World instances. If you get one you can get billions for it.

--------------------------

Basically that's all. You can easily get the A type trading the talismans you have repeated with people of your server.

Good luck ;)
