Nice Cute PET And finally CHUNG UPDATE

NA Update
Important: EXP Bug Fix

April 28, 2011
Well it wouldn’t be a real test without a few bugs now, would it?

Players have helped us identify an EXP display bug. You may have noticed that EXP does not register until you defeat a boss. This can be easily corrected and we won’t even bring down the game to fix it.

All you have to do is exit the game and log out. When you log back in, the client will automatically download a small patch file that will correct the problem. Easy peasy.

Thanks to the players that reported the bug on the forum. Enjoy your game.

OBT 1� Item Sale

April 27, 2011
For a single piece of US copper you can buy 1 of over 80 items and try it some gear for the day. Absolutely everything is on sale at 1� for 1 day. Perfect for you commitmentphobes that want to try out everything. Even the resurrection stones are available for the introductory price of a penny (NOTE: Not available from the item mall but you will be given the option to purchase more in a separate interface if you die during dungeon play). Buy whole costume sets for less than it costs to send your buddy a text about this sale. Time to hunt for all that loose change stuck under the front seat of your car. This promo can end at anytime so forget the wishing well and drop some coin in the Elsword Item Mall. Happy penny pinching.

Elsword GERMAN

Vargo has overrun Belder!
The city is in ruin and only a few citizens have returned, to help you battle evil.

Imagine the Vargo thugs in two new dungeons and show them that they can't mess with you.
It should be easier now, because you can level up to 45 now.
But it's far from being a piece of cake!

2nd job
The next three weeks will be devoted to the class change.
It will be celebrated with a lot of events, where you can get great items and avatar outfits.

First up is Elsword. from 4/5/2011 to 11/5/2011, any Elsword character who is level 35 can do the 2nd job change.
Every Elsword character who is lower than level 34 will get a 50% exp so that everybody can play his 2nd job.

The week after, it's Aisha's 2nd job change turn from 11/5/2011 to 18/5/2011. All Aisha players who are 34 and lower receive 50% extra exp!
Finally the last week it's Rena's turn from 18/5/2011 to 25/5/2011. Again, all Rena players who are 34 or lower receive 50% more exp!

New crafting system

Monsters will now drop items which you can use to craft items. You can use them to get potions from the alchemist,
or new weapons at the blacksmith. Your old crafting items will no longer be used, but you can exchange them for the new ones.
This possibility exists for 2 months. After that, all the old crafting items will dissapear.

Super Star, Pop Star or Diva?

The item-shop has prepared some new items for you. There is a cool Superstar look for Elsword, a Diva outfit for Rena and and Pop star outfir for Aisha!

Elsword Fan-Kit

There is an update on our website's fan-kit with 9 pictures of Belder and class-changed. Check them out!

Have fun with the new update!

Your Elsword team.

Ps. Very hard working players can get the Elixir of forgetfulness at Aranka. It will reset all skill points! ^^

NA Update Sorry If Its Late Crappy Net

New Time for Official Launch. 6:30AM or Bust.

May 4, 2011
We�re almost there. Had a few minor bug crawling around the code but they�ve been squashed. Just finishing a final round of internal testing and then we�re good to go. The team has been working non-stop since yesterday morning to prep the latest patch for primetime and they won�t rest until the Elbrats are back online. Mostly because we�ve chained them to their desktops and feeding them energy drinks and coffee intravenously. Get some breakfast and we�ll see you at 6:30AM PDT this morning (May 4). If you really need something to do, hit the forums and cheer the Kill3rCombo crew on. See you soon.

1st Job Classes Will Be Released For The Official Launch of Elsword, 5AMish PDT, May 4

May 3, 2011
This is what you�ve been waiting for. At 5AMish PDT*, May 4, the Knights, Mages and Rangers of Elsword Online will be getting an upgrade so that you can start to fine tune your characters. Will your Elsword go magic? Will your Rena trade in her bow for some close quarter combat? Will your Aisha summon the demons of the dark or bring us into the light of High Magic? Choose your path.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
To celebrate, everyone is eligible for a skill reset. All you have to do is complete a simple quest.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
* Servers will go down at Midnight (00:00 PDT) and we�re scheduled to go live by 5Am but these things never go as planned. We�ll do our best.

Maintenance Announcement
Share

May 4, 2011
Servers down 00:00AM to 5:00AM PDT, May 4 in preparation for the official launch of Elsword Online.

You�ll have to delay your Elsword fix for a few hours but we promise it will be worth the wait. The 1st Job Classes will finally be implemented. And in case you�ve been under a rock somewhere, a new event will also be included in this patch that will allow for a skill reset. Just find the NPC, Ariel, to start the �Revitalize for Job Advancement� quest and get a skill reset potion at its completion.

See you all very soon.

Bei ein paar leuten kann ein Problem auftreten w�hrend sie ihren Client patch'n.
Aber nur bei denen die versucht haben sich um Mitternacht ein zu loggen.

Die Leute die das Problem haben sollten am besten dies tun:

2.Geh in den Ordner wo du Elsword installiert hast und ersetze anschlie�end
die alte Elword.exe Datei mit der die du bei schritt 1. heruntergeladen hast.
(C:\Program Files\Kill3rCombo\Elsword)

3.Starte die neue Elsword.exe datei und logg dich mit deinen account ein.

Der Client sollte wieder normal patch'n.

Elsword China

They're surprisingly good, props to the Chinese VA's, also Elsword China is beginning Beta testing (finally). Elsword China isn't released yet, and I just noticed this. They've had their website up since August, and all this time I thought it was already released.

Listen XD

Fluorite Ore for One Hour More May 18 to May 24
Share

May 18, 2011
We’re giving everyone a chance to sample some Lvl 2 Fluorite Ore. It does more than just keep the dentist away. This little element can save your equipment from most wear and tear. Think of it as an insurance policy on your valuable items when an Enhancement goes sideways (see more details below). All you have to do is login to Elsword Online for 1 continuous hour to get a piece. You can repeat this event 1x per day for each character in your account. Be warned though that the event timer will be reset whenever you exit or disconnect from the game.

Rewards:

NOTE: You will initially get the (really terribly named) 60 Min Finger Training Ticket when you fulfill the event conditions. This will magically turn into Fluorite Ore Lv. 2 after the May 25th Maintenance.

60 Min Finger Training Ticket.

60 Min Finger Training Ticket Login for an hour to get one of these item gift tickets!
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

WE REPEAT: The ticket will be converted to Fluorite Ore Lv.2 on May 25th Maintenance. This is automatic. You don’t have to do anything special. Just open your inventory after the maintenance and, voila…

Fluorite Ore Lv. 2 Protects the item’s enhancement grade from Enhancement or Epic Fail grade decrease effects.
Disappears after a use.
For Lv. 21~30 equipment.

*Unable to protect the item from ‘unable to use’ state if enhancement fails

*This may not be used for items +10 or above.

(Must be present in inventory to use.)
…will replace the tickets you earned.

Eltype Manga Contest Starts Now!
Share4

May 26, 2011

Elsword isn’t just a game. In Korea, Elsword and his buddies, Rena and Aisha, also star in their very own manga. You may have seen the translated version floating around the net. It’s a valiant effort, but we just don’t think it portrays our characters quite right. We couldn’t do any better because, well, we’re gamers, not writers.
We think you can though.

Judging from our previous contests, we’ve found that the Elsword Online community is filled with some extremely creative and talented people. (A few of the Voice Over Video Contest submissions were excellent, by the way.) That’s why we want you to rewrite Eltype, the Elsword manga. Come up with a story, write the gang some dialogue and give Elsword its due. Complete the story in this first volume or end it on a cliffhanger. Give us a reason to read volume 2. Go nuts on it. Complete artistic freedom. Make Elsword yours! We’ve got the art, you’ve got everything else. Sweeet. Let’s do this.

Check out the pages here. Just browse through each page for a while and see where inspiration strikes you. Start wherever you like, you can always go back and change it later. Your work will be saved until the submission deadline and you can edit it until you’re happy.

We’ll post Kill3rCombo’s top 3 and we’ll let the community vote on the winner. First prize is an original digital painting by one of the hottest up and coming cover artists, Chester Ocampo. Oh, oh, oh…and it will feature you as a new Elsword character. This is not a caricature, this is the shiznit. (I’m sorry, there’s no more appropriate word.) The top 3 will all get K-Ching as well.

We can’t wait to see what you guys come up with. Seriously.

Let’s get started.

The Sword of Demons, Muramasa!
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Quote:

Anyways enough with that, you can get the sword from a simple quest. All you have to do is complete a dungeon 3 times that you can gain EXP from. Simple as that. You then get a random box that contains one of the 5 murasmasa swords. However, you can only get the sword for one day, thats it, but its a daily quest so no need to worry! The murasmasa swords are a back accessory, not a weapon to use kids!

Different Swords..
