Current Known Issues (Jul. 27)

As of Jul. 27, 2009, we have confirmed the following issues.
Investigation and recovery work is currently underway. We ask for your patience in this matter until the issues have been resolved.

[Current Known Issues]

- During the quest "Succor to the Sidhe," reward cannot be obtained in case the alliance is formed.

* By not forming the alliance while challenging this quest, the above issue can be avoided.

- Within the maze created by using "Actualization Team" Maze Voucher, NPC "Chaperix" and monsters will not battle in case the pet (Beastmaster's summoned pets, Dragoon's wyverns, Summoner's avatars and Automatons) is summoned

* By not summoning the pet, the above issue can be avoided.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Yeah sorry about that guys ; ; Glad they are fixing it... I'd be happy to go again with anyone who lost their weapon.

 

[Alexia]

Sorry about that guys, main reason I wanted us in alliance was so the other team could see what was going on.

 

[Talfus]

No ones fault, spaghetti code, etc.

The following issues have been addressed:

- The elemental weapon skills of "Honebami," "Chiroptera Dagger" and "Bourdonasse" were not functioning properly.

- Upon the use of the weapon skill "Catastrophe," the additional effect would sometimes not properly go into effect.

- While the job ability "Yonin" is in effect, Ninja Tools would not be spent upon the use of Ninjutsu.

- While casting magic spells, counter attack would not initiate.

Hmmm, so they didn't actually fix the pixie weapon alliance issue. We'll need to be careful about that when we go again if we have more than 6.
