January 9th Important Patch Notice

Date : 1/8/2007
inquiry : 859

Hello. This is Silkroad Online.

To avoid incurring confusion, we will inform our users of the important patches that will be applied on January 9th weekly inspection period.

- Level restriction on purchase of Magic Stone of Astral and Magic Stone of Immortal applied

To block cash item related fraudulent actions and to intensify our security, we have applied level restriction on purchase of Magic Stone of Astral and Magic Stone of Immortal.

* Restriction level = first weapon available per degree - 5 levels
Example: To purchase 8th degree Magic Stone of Astral, a user must at least be 64 (first weapon available for 8th degree) - 5 = 59 levels or higher.

- Silk purchase limitation applied

To prevent the use of robbed credit cards, only accounts with a character level 10 or higher can purchase Silk.

- Skill structure modification

Skill structures of Bicheon Mastery's Shield Technique Series and Heuksal Mastery's Fanning Spear Series, which are inefficient compared to other skills, have been modified. We hope this brings more excitement in using skills.

Seriously, i've been rather impressed recently with Joymax. It would seem they are finally getting on top of things.

They improved Bicheon and Heuksal, but Pacheon gets nothing. Does Joymax hate bow chars or something?
