Game update
Open beta: Beta Test Hall, towns, Warper and more
The open beta is running: register and play in your browser. The Beta Test Hall in Prontera has all gear, free refines, training dummies and more, and the Warper menu is rebuilt.
Open beta
- The open beta is running: register at https://ro.arionword.com/pre-register and play in your browser at https://play.arionword.com. Beta progress is wiped at launch; your account and reserved character name stay.
- Beta Test Hall on the training ground in south-east Prontera (248,59): any job and level, all official gear and cards, free refines up to +20, buffs, resets, supplies, 23 training dummies with a damage meter, a private MVP room and a duel arena. Everything there is free and bound to your character. New characters start in the hall, and the Warper's Prontera trips land there during the beta.
- Found a bug? Type @bug and what happened: the team gets it on Discord with your map and position.
- Discord: react 🧪 in #beta-info for the Beta Tester role. In-game #main, #market and #party chat now also appears in Discord's in-game-chat, market and lfg channels.
Towns
- Every town: the Hunting Hall and the Veil Muster stand at the arrival point, next to the Kafra, Warper and Healer.
- Prontera: the services hall now has the Stylist, Reset Girl, Festival Merchant, Sigil Collector, Vault Keeper, Veil Cartographer and Veil Archivist; the Reckless Refiner works inside the smithy.
- Prontera's arrival point moved a few steps south (156,183), out from behind the banner.
- New characters get a first-login line pointing to @guide.
Warper
- Rebuilt menu: places sorted A-Z, up to 5 Favorites, and Again for your last trip.
- Dungeons open per account once one of your characters has visited them. Veil Chronicle steps from Lv 99 also open Thor's Volcano, Lasagna Dungeon and the Verus Expedition Camp.
- Above base level 100 a paid trip costs 10 zeny more per level (Lv 150: +500 z); the greeting shows your surcharge. Premium trips stay free.
Group finder
- A party leader can queue the whole party (2 to 11 players): the party is matched as one and never split.
Quests
- Echoes of the Veil: side stories from the Veil Muster, one per 12-player band after its first clear. All seven earn the title Echoes Remembered.
- Static in the Sands, Where the Falls Hum and The Doram Warning are now about finding things instead of hunting; rewards unchanged.
- The Veil Chronicle's closing lines lead into the official episodes, and @guide now walks 8 more official chains: Brasilis, Dewata, Malangdo, Mora, Eclage, The Royal Banquet, Terra Gloria and The Rebellion.
- Veil Artificer: the Veil Essence patterns open with the Veil Chronicle (I after The Threshold, II after Heat Beneath the Veil, III after The Awakening). New recipe: 50 Elunium or Oridecon + 1 Veil Essence I + 25,000 z = 1 Enriched ore.
- Fixed: the map links of Heat Beneath the Veil and The Doram Warning.
Instances
- The Serpent's Nest final chest can now hold a Soul Expansion Ring (15%).
Staff notices
- Staff notices and maintenance countdowns now appear on screen, with warnings at 30, 15, 10, 5 and 1 minutes.
Fixes
- Premium Pass and Premium Token show your real new expiry date (it said 1970) and give the Patron title right away.
- Attendance calendar: a different official item every day (Battle Manuals, Bubble Gum, Life Insurance, Convex Mirror, potions, wings), bigger on days 7, 14 and 21 and a costume on day 28, all bound to your account; the calendar no longer pays Hunting Coins (Premium still gets every day's reward twice).
- Korean Rice Cake shows its real effect (20% of MaxHP) instead of an old event text, and the Founder's Supply Box lists what it really holds.
