January

General Adjustments or Mechanics

• The Pow Rates system now doesn't charge you anything for lowering your rates from 5x to 1x, as long as you're level 99 or lower.
• I significantly reduced the penalties for higher rates in the Pow Rates system. You can find more information here.
• I reduced the price of lowering your rates by half. The previous formula was (Base Level x 30000 x stage), and the new formula is (Base Level x 10000 x stage).
• BG ahora cuenta con una Leyla Guerrera.

• Estefanío now gives you the option to purchase Mystical Card Albums for 100 Card Points, but he only sells 20 MCAs per day!

• Now we have our own @restock system (restocking system). You can view the manual by using "@restock h". This system is designed to improve your gameplay, and the cost for restocking is very low, only 750 Zeny.

• We have customized the Illusion of Teddy Bear and Illusion of Labyrinth dungeons. Today, I will upload the new Illusion Dungeons page, which contains information about the access quest and the daily quests.
• I modified the access system for Illusion dungeons to make them account-bound.
• I increased the rewards for completing the daily and weekly missions in Illusion of Labyrinth. Normally, they give 1 and 3, but in Pow, they give 2 and 10.
• Both Illusion dungeons have been incorporated into the MVP points and Illusion points system, along with their respective shops.
• The quests for Illusion of Teddy Bear and Illusion of Labyrinth are bilingual.

• I converted the spell creation system. Now, spells are learned once per account, with the exception of Kuchiyose. The interface is much more user-friendly and intuitive. When summoning the spell, a window like the one in the photo will appear to create the summoned spell.

• I converted the Bloody Coins store in Horror Toy Factory, and now it's as intuitive as you can see in the photo #2. Previously, there was a lot of unnecessary text. Additionally, I added the ability to obtain Celine's Dress and Brooch in the store.
• I reduced the price for creating Petroleos from 10,000 Zeny per creation to 5,000 Zeny.
• I reduced the cost of Wootan Shoulder Pieces and Rock Fragments required in the Illusion Equipment quests from 30 each to 15 each.

• I implemented the @cd/@cooldown/@instancesetting commands. These commands will show you the instances available and the time you need to wait before re-entering them. They are configurable with @instancesetting. There's also an NPC version of this in the Safe House.
• I added/modified a few items in the Item Exchange list. Notably, now you can exchange 10 Gold Ore and 25K Zeny for 1 Gold.
• I decreased the value of the Gold item to prevent Zeny dilution, and with this change, I increased the chance of obtaining Gold from mining by a multiple of 7x! The purpose of this change is to make it easier to meet the requirements for RK.
• The items obtained as a welcome pack from Kafra can now be sold to NPCs.
• I adjusted the rewards for Invasions; now you won't earn Empathy Points, and they have been replaced by Magical Soapstones.
• I sped up the dialogue for several NPCs, including the one for learning training. Now it's much faster and integrated into the custom visual effects system. I also implemented its NPC version in Safe House.

• I re-organized the Travel Agency. Now the teleports you discover are added to their normal category (City, Dungeon, Instance). Some maps are more dynamic, like Payon Dungeon and Sphinx, which appear like this in the Travel Agency but expand when you choose them, allowing you to select between the first level or the level discovered by teleportation.

• I implemented the system for earning Zeny when defeating mobs.
• The Medallón Pagano item now grants 0.5% of HP per base level instead of a fixed 5%.

Leveling Adjustments

• We improved the Eden Group room. Now it allows saving your position. We added a Kafra, Leyla, and Travel Agency. Changed the portal to the second room to make it more visible.

• Now, all the Eden Group quests that require access to maps that need entrance quests will send you directly to the hunting map or nearby, only while you are in the process of completing those quests. For example, it will allow you to access the Rachel Sanctuary directly if you are doing the Isilla hunting quests.

• The job change quests will allow you to skip them if you pay 2,000 Training Points.
• I improved Katy's welcome package, now it gives 20,000 zeny, 100x  Novice Fly Wing, 30x  Novice Butterfly Wing, 3x  Bubble Gum, & 3x  Battle Manual, all these items can only be used on your account.
• We updated the EXP table to the latest renewal version (lighter than before and with a more comfortable curve).

Visual Adjustments

• I implemented the Safe House, Pow's initial house that can be accessed from Prontera. Here, you can find almost all the convenience NPCs offered on the server, including a tool dealer, rate manager, builds, Leyla, and the travel agency.

• Many of our custom NPCs now use my visual effects system. You'll notice how they interact with you and others who activate this preference through custom settings (@settings - or through the settings NPC in the Safe House).
• We have a beautiful new Prontera now <3

Dungeons & Instances

• I implemented the EDDA:The Fall of GlastHeim, including the mob, items, enchantments, etc.
• I implemented the creation of Abyss Lakes 4 Items.
• The warp from Old Pow now activates every minute (1 minute to travel, 1 minute to return).
• I increased the drop rate of most items from Map Drops by a multiple of 5-50x.
• Now you can save your starting position with the Kafras in Old Pow.
