Ruby Online | 100 Cap | CH & EU | Innovative Gameplay | Drop-based | GO 19.03
RUBY | 2021
"Innovation" might be a tremendous word for a large group of people, or let's be more specific; a large group of servers. Changing marginal systems, adding models, or doing other minor changes to the game are just some of the definitions of "innovation" that we seen thrown around these days. But, for us, being innovative is different. We managed to drastically improve the game, make it truly enjoyable. Months of developing, testing and gathering ideas with the entire team - all to present our loyal players with a trustworthy and memorable experience that they deserve.
Aiming for long-term
Here at Ruby, we aim for long-term server; prioritizing a hard experience rate and a drop-based SoX System along-side tons of new & never-before-seen systems. From a completely redesigned core, to the most minimalistic edits, we have reshapen Ruby to be the most advanced & innovative project that you have seen thusfar! You name it, you'll see it. We promise you that Ruby will provide a unique gameplay experience and not underdeliver!
RUBY | The team
Our team consists of three developers and one community manager, as well as our game assistants. Ace is the main developer of the server, followed by Keigo; who is the secondary developer. We have a new addition to the team as well: HB (developer), bringing countless brand-new & unimaginable features to Ruby. As many of you have heard, our loyal team member Foberious is sitting out of this server, so Hypnos is here to fill his position until he returns!
OFFICIAL TRAILER
CAP | 100
Ruby was and always will remain a Cap 100 server. Ruby's community was built from this cap from the very start, and it has been beloved by our loyal players for ages.
RACES | EU & CH
By overwhelmingly popular demand, Ruby's available races will be both Chinese and European. We already know - the biggest worries about introducing a dual-race server... BALANCE?! Fear not, as we have past experience with Chinese/European servers from our previous projects. We will introduce a revolutionary balance that will completely satisfy your needs!
EXPERIENCE | 20X
Ruby has always been using the same experience rates: 20x. It is perfectly ideal for every player! The goldilocks zone of leveling: 20x is not too difficult nor too easy.
PARTY EXP | 25X
Parties are great, aren't they? It's much better to play the game with friends rather than by yourself. To encourage players to utilize parties while leveling, we have given them an advantage and slightly boosted the EXP rates for them to 25x.
ITEM DROP | 3X
The item drop rate in Ruby will be ISRO's original drop rate: 3x. This rate is ideal in the fact that it is a medium and fair rate. It is not too difficult to obtain items, yet also not so easy that they lose their value.
GOLD DROP | 5X
Gold is undoubtedly one of the most useful currencies in Ruby. Uses for it are everywhere, and it is absolutely necessary if you plan to succeed! We did not want players to struggle with such a vital aspect of the server, so we decided to boost the gold drop rate to 5x.
MAX PLUS | +13
In order to maintain a good balance between players, regardless of build, it was a necessity to modify the maximum plus of the server. The max plus of Ruby will be +13 (with advanced elixir). Friendly reminder: reaching the max plus is not easy by any means!
MASTERY | 330
European mastery will be 200, and chinese mastery will be 330. These are the typical mastery limits for 100 Cap - they are the most balanced and fair limits in our opinion & the majority of everyone else's!
Auto Equipment.
Nobody likes a messy leveling process, you want to get to the real challenge as soon as possible with as little stress and discomfort as possible! In order to assist you during your leveling process, we have implemented an auto-equipment system. Every new degree, you will receive +5 FB Seal of Star Equipment with medium stats added. This should be more than beneficial to you!
Vigor percentage.
We kept the vigor percentage at 16% to fit the EU/CH races.
Grinding Areas.
Ruby has always been one of the largest projects in the scene. As we are expecting a massive population in the server, it was obvious that we would need more than a few leveling areas to avoid crowding & killstealing. Leveling should be enjoyable, not a heinous task! There will be more than a sufficient amount of space for you to farm & level up on Ruby.
PC Limit | 2
The PC (HWID) Limit of Ruby will be 2. NOTE: This limit will be modified to 1 on the Grand Opening to avoid any potential overcrowding issues.
IP Limit | 4
The IP Limit of Ruby will be 4. NOTE: This limit will be modified to 2 on the Grand Opening to avoid any potential overcrowding issues.
Discord Rich Presence
With Ruby's brand new rich presence, you are able to rep the server and show off your statistics such as your character name, location, level, and much more - without doing a single thing! Ruby's integrated DLL will automatically display this information in any Discord client that is detecting running on the same PC as the client. Ruby is the first ever Silkroad server to introduce additional buttons to our rich presence.
Achievement System
We have managed to integrate the infamous "achievement" system into our server. Show off your most valiant accomplishments in the server with an additional "title" that will be displayed next to your character name! These achievement titles can be used alongside a regular title. Ruby is the very first VSRO server to introduce this system..
New Reverse options
Yet another innovation by Ruby - we have managed to update Reverse Return Scrolls to include the two additional features that are implemented in ISRO's reverse system. Now, you will be able to 1.) move to the location of a desired party member and 2.) register custom locations that you can designate yourself and immediately teleport to. These features are not kept behind an annoying paywall - they will be available in Ruby's normal Reverse Return Scrolls. No "special" bs.
Colored Globals
The traditional chat does not have a lot of variation... after a few of the same types of messages, the chat starts to all look the same! We wanted to introduce a special feature to allow you to stick out! Ruby will have colored globals (don't worry, they are not eye-cancer!) for our loyal supporters and highest donators. Don't worry about a "rainbow fiesta" appearing in your chat either. This special global will only be available to those in the "VIP" category (system introduced later) of the crest!
Devil & Avatar - Gender Switcher
Just like gear, we think that avatars & devils deserve to have a gender switch as well! It's annoying when there is a specific avatar, or a fancy devil with your desired plus that you want to purchase... but you can't because of the gender restriction. No longer do you have to worry about such a scenario! Ruby will be introducing this special type of gender switch tool to the server! In addition to that, the transformation is done live - it does not require a teleport/relog!
Instant Model Switchers
Similarly to the gender switch tool, you will now be able to modify the degree design of your weapon without needing to teleport or relog! Everything is modified in one simple click. NOTE: Model Switchers do not provide any advantage to the user whatsoever. It is purely a visual change.
Guild Name Visibility in Job Status
Many people requested this special feature, to be able to see their guild names in the job mode, so they can recognize each other even if in opposing leagues without the inconvenience of looking at a guild tag for every target. Now, you can avoid killing your guild mates, and also catch fake namers with ease!
Item Comparison
It grows tiring when you are consistently switching between items to see the differences between them. Here at Ruby, we have implemented the ISRO Item Comparison system to destroy this hassle once and for all! You can compare the stats between items with one easy click. The procedure is simple: hold the "CTRL" key down while hovering over the item you would like to compare your current equipped item to!
Ruby's Mark
Every single one of you deserves a ruby. All characters will now have a Ruby icon displayed next to their name. If the icon does not look appealing to you, you can disable this feature in the in-game settings.
Specific Unique Death Location
It becomes exhausting when you need to PM the killer of a unique to determine its spawnpoint. No longer must you worry about such an inconvenience. At Ruby, the exact region name will be stated on the death of every unique, rather than just the broad location.
Unique Target Marker
The target of the unique will now be displayed above the head of the target. This will be particularly helpful in uniques with high damage that you want to avoid being hit by!
ISRO Alchemy Technique
You can perform alchemy non-stop now! Instead of needing to continually drag stones, elixirs, lucky powder etc. to the slot of the alchemy GUI, it will now remain static and stay in place until removed. Do alchemy like a madman with just one click, time after time after time!
ISRO Buffline Space
It's the little things that make a difference. Your experience in Ruby will feel even more traditional & original as we have implemented the gap between your character overview and your buffline. So visually appealing!
Custom Notifications
We managed to make our own custom notifications along with unique colors for special notifications & events.
Unique Damage Counter.
We have adjusted our unique damage counter to appear for all players of the server once any unique dies. It will give the exact damage amount that the top 8 players dealt on any specific unique. No longer will you have to wonder about how close you were to beating your rival... or they were to beating you!
Gold Commas & Colors
You no longer need to worry about double-checking your entry for stalls or even selling/buying from NPCs! The gold amounts have been colorized & commas will be embedded automatically!
Instant Cape Equip (Event Areas)
Cheating out of cape is not a possibility anymore, and you do not need to deal with the annoying yellow bar animation that appears while equipping a PVP cape! Upon entering any event area, your PVP cape will be automatically & instantly equipped.
VIP System
We have implemented the beloved VIP system into Ruby. Now, you can flex your donations with a special crest next to your character name! There are six different VIP levels, each one requiring a different amount of donated silk. NOTE: The VIP system is PURELY COSMETIC. Donators of any crest level will not receive any advantage in-game. Only the highest tier VIP users will have one small advantage: the ability to use a special colored global chat.
AFK Bubbles
You're now able to determine if a user is away from the game with one quick glance. Users who have not performed any actions for a certain amount of time will have the bubble animation appear over their character!
Title Recoloring Scrolls
You can now customize your character even further! You can colorize your in-game title with 13 different color choices!
Item Linking in ALL Chat Types
You've seen global item linking, but Ruby is always pushing barriers and innovating even further. In Ruby 2021, you will have the ability to link your items in every form of chat (all, global, union, guild, party, and academy). Ruby is the very first VSRO server to introduce this feature.
Stall Network [F]
Save your time running from stall to stall in town. Just search for the specific item you need in Ruby's custom stall network! Upon registering an item to a stall, it is also automatically registered to the stall network. Each town has its own stall network. To access the stall network, press the [F] key on your keyboard, and the window will appear!

Designed for the infamous - the "Wanted System" has been in Ruby since day 1. Server after server, we have been constantly improving upon and editing it to perfection. It truly gives a new level of competition to jobbing in general.
Bounties.
Each wanted level will have its very own bounty associated with it. Killing a wanted player will grant you an amount of gold depending on his/her wanted level. This gold won't be taken from the player who dies, but will be given from the system itself! Feel like a cowboy in the wild west!
Buff Rewards.
Consecutive job kills on different players without dying will grant you a helpful buff - if you manage to reach one of the killing sprees mentioned below. Are you up for the challenge?
Killing Spree Announcer.
There are 6 different killing spree levels that will be announced globally once reached by any player in the server!
1. 20 Kills: [Job Alias] is on a Killing spree!
2. 40 Kills: [Job Alias] is on a Rampage!
3. 60 Kills: [Job Alias] is Dominating!
4. 80 Kills: [Job Alias] is Unstoppable!
5. 100 Kills: [Job Alias] is Godlike!
6. 120 Kills: [Job Alias] is Legendary!
Compete to reach the top! Honor buffs really define the entire core of Silkroad in general. They indirectly populate events and bring importance to so many activities... Ruby would be incomplete without them. Honor buffs are obtained by players who are within the top 35 of the honor ranking.
The ranking resets every Wednesday & Sunday and updates every 2 hours.
Each job union (hunter/trader/thief) has its own honor ranking ladder, ensuring fair competition for everyone regardless of restrictions due to job league!
Ruby's iconic invention - the ELO system was introduced in the very first Ruby server and has been a staple of Ruby for ages. ELO ensures competition between players in all types of activities, and completely redefines the battles you can witness in the server. Players will keep grinding to climb the ELO Leagues and prove their worth. Can you compete alongside them and show them who is the true champion?
PvP Matching.
One of Ruby's hottest features, one beloved by the majority of the community since we first introduced it. In order to keep PVP Matching fair and competitive for everyone, we have made this feature exclusive to ELO-ranked players only. This means that if you do not belong to an ELO league, you cannot participate in PVP Matching! This change will really improve ELO's importance and also make PvP Matching way more competitive.
Complete Fairness:
You are likely wondering how the ELO system is fair to players using builds that are less effective in killing enemies. The answer is simple, just take into consideration that those aggressive builds may gain more ELO Points since they will be getting more kills, but they will also lose more ELO Points as they have lower survivability causing them more deaths on the ranked activities. In the end, it balances out!
Fortress war is fun! That's exactly the reason we want all kinds of players to be able to enjoy it. Ruby 2021 will have all kinds of fortress wars available, for solo players, for solo guilds, and for crowded unions to enjoy!
Available Fortresses.
There will be two classic fortresses available in Ruby: Constantinople & Bandit. Consatntinople will be the main fortress area where big unions will fight for the crown of Ruby 2021. However, smaller guilds deserve to feel the heat of Ruby's intense competitive environment as well. That's why Bandit Fortress will be available.
Solo Players Fortress War.
We have developed a brand new Fortress War for all the solo players out there! We know that guilds aren't meant for everyone. We want every single player in Ruby to be able to experience the joy of the intense fortress battles, regardless of their status! The fortress consists of 3 different towers and 1 main heart. Player names, guild names & pets won't be shown inside the fortress area to make sure the fight will be fair for everyone. Additionally, all players will have the Fortress War avatar automatically equipped once they teleport inside of the fortress!
Process:
1.) First off, you must destroy the "Poison Tower."
2.) Secondly, destroy the "Lightning Tower."
3.) Next, destroy the "Freezing Tower."
4.) Finally, the heart will then spawn, and you will be able to attack it after 180 seconds.
Rewards:
1. Each tower kill will grant the killer 100 Silk.
2. The player to destroy the heart will be the winner of the war, and will receive 1,000 silk as well as the special Solo Fortress War ownership icon.
3. Each player kill inside the fortress area will grant you 2 ELO Points and 1 Honor Point.
Jobbing was always the most iconic concept of Silkroad. It's debatably why this game is still active to this day; therefore, it was obvious that it needed some special modifications here! Jobbing was and will continue to be a major part of Ruby's gameplay, and we are constantly working on improving it for a more competitive & enjoyable experience.
Guild Names in Job Mode:
As mentioned previously in this thread, by popular demand, we have created a system to show your guild above your job alias. See this system in action in the "Special Features" portion of the thread!
Restrictions:
In order to ensure the fairest environment for jobbing, we have implemented the restrictions mentioned below.
Return Scrolls:
1.) All kinds of instant returns scrolls are disabled while wearing a job suit. Fight until the end, don't try to escape!
2.) In order to avoid the repeated use of Reverse Return Scrolls to avoid fights or whatnot, Reverse Return Scrolls have a cooldown of 90 seconds in Job Mode.
Character Limits in Job Status:
In an effort to avoid potential abuse and an unfair environment for our loyal players, we have limited the number of characters that you can have in Job Mode simultaneously. You are only permitted to have [1] character with job suit equipped per HWID (PC) & [2] characters with job suit equipped per IP.
Ruby has one of the most advanced anti-cheat detection systems developed to date. We strongly advise that you do not attempt to bypass any limitations. It is highly likely you will fail, and a permanent ban is your reward.
Job Levels:
Ruby has an extremely unique job level system, and it is important that you completely understand the system to avoid any confusion.
The maximum job level you can attain in Ruby is 20.
From levels 1~7, you level up with classic Job EXP (trading, selling goods, etc.)
From levels 8~20, you level up with Job Kills!
1 Kill = 2 Points.
1 Death = -0.5 Points.
1 Level Up = 100 Points.
You can keep track of the current amount of points you have from the Job Analysis window on the Main Menu!
Skills.
Variety of Skills really changing the way Thieves can play. Your jobbing experience is about to get on a next level!
Please note that these skills are made to offer fun, we don't want them to be overpowered and ruin the game balance, proper cooldowns and values will be given after lots of testing to ensure that.

Trade Routes:
An ideal jobbing environment consists of constant activity between two different routes. We have all seen it ourselves, it's no secret. In order to establish a stable jobbing system as well as bring back the old-school nostalgic feel, we have decided to implement traditional town-to-town jobbing routes.
Job Temple:
From questing, to uniques, to massive fights - the job temple has it all! Whether you're a new or old player, it's likely that we all remember it vividly. Ruby will be using its traditional temple, as always. You can access the job temple from the teleporter outside of Donwhang!
Temple of Shadows:
Ruby's custom jobbing event that premiered back in 2020. As it was one of the most exciting parts of day-to-day Ruby activity & loved by the community, it was a simple choice to bring it back! The event is held in Zealot's Hideout, an underappreciated map. Each job union has its own entrance gate where they can enter the region when the event begins (once per day).
Event Process:
1.) 2x [STR]Jupiter (unique) & 2x [INT]Yuno (unique) will be spawned around the main entrance room. Each unique kill will grant 1 point to the job union that killed it.
2.) Once all of the uniques have been slayed, a final boss named "Shadow Ruler" will spawn in the dead center of the main room. The job union that kills the Shadow Ruler will earn 3 points!
3.) After the madness ends, the job union with the most points wins the event!

Just imagine the massive fights that will take place on this temple, it is a server event where all players will participate with their job unions. Some insanely large scale battles are about to happen!
Dungeons have always been a prevalent feature of Silkroad, both in the official and private variants of servers. They are the perfect way for anybody to enjoy new and fresh PVE content! From uniques, to questing, to hunting, dungeons have it all. Ruby has always been a PVE-heavy server in addition to the massive PVP fights that can be witnessed at any moment. We want every type of player to engage in content that they enjoy doing!
Ruby's dungeon system has been completely refreshed, with new names, advanced additions, and intriguing quests that will keep you begging for more!
NOTE: Premium is required to be able to join Dungeons.
All dungeons monsters & uniques have a higher droprate of SOX items compared to normal monsters! They are level 100 and give you the opportunity to get last-tier level 100 items that you will not be able to obtain from normal mobs!
Eterain:
Eterain is based off of the demonic "Purgatory" region that contains demon-like monsters risen from hell!

We have added lots of quests with many useful rewards. You can find all information about them below. Quests have to do with Dungeons and hunting uniques.
NOTE: You need to wear job suit in order to be able to see job temple quests
Competing for the exact same reasons and performing the exact same activities get boring after a while. In Ruby, we have integrated a custom skill system that allows you to triumph over your opponents, while also bringing more competition and challenges to the server! After all, nobody was ever the best with no effort. The same statement will apply to your strength in Ruby.
Upgrading your current skills:
As the classic skill system is used, your skill upgrades are also obtained using skillpoints (SP). Skillpoints are often disregarded and wasted in servers... however, in Ruby, we are changing that stereotype. Skillpoints will be extremely valuable in Ruby as they are used to upgrade your last-tier skills, which are stronger than normal skills that require no farming to unlock. These higher-tier skills require a large sum of skillpoints that will require you to complete quests and run dungeons daily to attain!
Ruby's custom skill system is unique in the fact that - there are no "custom skills." That is cheesy, and overedited. Rather, in Ruby 2021, you are simply able to upgrade your current skills beyond their original last tier!
It will take a minimum of 4 days, completing all quests/activities, to upgrade 1 skill. The reason that these upgrades are so time-consuming is to ensure that the server remains a long-term one! You will always have something to work towards, that way you will never grow bored while playing in Ruby!
A stable economy is key to a server's success. With price fluxuations, constant inflation/deflation between currencies, and other negative scenarios, the economy can quickly be crippled, which indirectly affects everything and everyone in the server in some way, shape, or form. It is critical that the server economy remains stable in order to keep a healthy, long-term server. That is why at Ruby, we have made multiple key changes that assure a positive economic experience for everyone.
Gold Value.
The core of the server's economy. Gold is the most universal and common currency in Silkroad, and Ruby will not be any different. Gold will be essential to perform various different types of activities. In order to keep the server's lifespan long, and the server's economy prosperous, the uses of gold have been edited in a few ways that make it unavoidable to not have.
1. Gold Coins.
A currency worth 1B (one billion) gold. This can be utilized for saving time & bringing a sense of security to high-price transactions. No longer will you need to exchange time after time, or stall a variety of items to complete your deal!
2. New Job Suits.
It is no secret that the highest donators & high-ranked players attempt to consistently use silk as their main currency. We recognize this as an issue, and we want every user to have the exact same opportunities; hence why we have forced even the highest donators to use gold. Ruby's additional job suits provide benefits that simply cannot be missed out on! Everyone will want to get their hands on one of these. And yes... you guessed it. They cost: gold.
3. Gold Miner.
The Gold Miner is one of the larger economic additions that can be seen at Ruby. From dungeons, to silk items, the Gold Miner has a massive variety of both exclusive and non-exclusive items that you will want to get your hands on! Every single item provided will benefit you in some way, and some are even downright necessary! The sole purpose of this NPC is to keep the value of gold consistently high and stable.
4. Lottery.
The classic gold lottery event, to have chances to win all you need to do is purchasing lottery tickets from the Gold Miner NPC. There are 3 different tickets each one offering more chances to win. Keep in mind that you can't buy as many tickets as you like as this would be unfair since rich players would buy a shitload of tickets. Below you can find the improved rewards of our lottery.
5. Dungeons
Dungeons are insanely important in Ruby 2021's system. As the saying goes: with great power comes great responsibility... well, we believe that with great power comes a great cost. Dungeons will cost a hefty sum of gold to enter. Keep in mind that there are numerous types of dungeons, all that can be performed daily! Be sure to trade as much as possible to help gain gold for such activities.
6. Basic Items Price Increase.
Basic and common items such as vigors, lucky powders, and return scrolls have had their prices increased. These are items that will never stop being used, so increasing their prices to promote a constant usage of gold was a simple choice!
Jobbing
It is evident that gold is a necessity in Ruby... but too much of a good thing is never for the best! Jobbing is the quickest, most efficient, and most beneficial method to earn gold. All that gold can stack up! In order to avoid overinflation, gold gain has been limited per day (from jobbing).
CURRENCIES.
Ruby 2021 has five different currencies, each serving a unique purpose and each being equally important to your success in the game. Simplicity is key - that's why we made the currency list simple to understand & easy on the eyes. You can check all currency information below!
Gold Coin [Tradeable].
A coin purchasable from the Gold Miner NPC - valued at 1B (one billion) gold. This coin can be used for large transactions, and also can be resold to any NPC for the exact same cost of purchase.
Token of Dungeon [Untradeable].
This special token can be dropped from any monster or unique in Ruby's dungeons! It can be used to purchase sockets, which are available for all set parts & weapons.
Arena Coin [Untradeable].
Arena Coins can be gained from Battle Arena. Arena Coins are used in the purchase of Advanced Elixirs, both types A and B, both sealed and non-sealed.
Activity Tokens [Tradeable].
Activity Tokens can be obtained from Capture The Flag, Battle Arena and Job Temple Quest. These valuable tokens will be used in the purchase of a grand variety of special scrolls. These scrolls can be found at the Ruby Seller!
Coin of combativeness [Untradeable]
Coins of Combativeness can be obtained from Survival Arena. Killing an opponent in Survival Arena (Solo) wil grant you one coin. You can obtain a maximum of five coins per match! These coins are used in purchasing crests, advanced elixirs, and more! Be sure to save them up - as they are extremely valuable.
Ruby never disappoints in terms of innovation and new content. Our SOX system, the core of the entire game, is absolutely unparalleled to any system that you have witnessed to date - it is way beyond the norm! No more silly boxes, no more boring coin farming, only activity. Ruby 2021's sealed items can only be obtained by a drop system. Every single one of them. Get ready to witness history!
Ruby uses the standard Silkroad seal system in order to provide a more old-school, nostalgic experience.
The available seals on Ruby 2021 will be:
1.) Seal of Star (SOS)
2.) Seal of Moon (SOM)
3.) Seal of Sun (SUN)
Balance:
Many servers fail in the aspect that they nerf each seal too harshly - so harshly that they lose their value and appeal. We assured this would not occur in Ruby. Each seal has a valuable and powerful power difference that will make every single one of them useful.
Type of Seal:
Difference:
Seal of Star (SOS)
[+1.5]
Seal of Moon (SOM)
[+4]
Seal of Sun (SUN)
[+6]
SoX Glows

250 Activity Token (Obtainable from Job Temple quest (15) and Capture the Flag Event (20) per win, (1) per kill and Battle Arena 1 per kill.)
1,000,000,000 Gold (1B).
Socket System:
Sockets have been in SRO since anyone can remember... but they can barely be seen being utilized anywhere. As one of the most underappreciated features of the game, we at Ruby decided to pioneer yet again and craft our own custom system to make sockets fair & accessible to all! You can find all the information regarding sockets below.
What are sockets?
Sockets are items can be bound onto weapons & equipment that provide additional passive and active boosts to your character. Each socket has 3 different levels. The higher the socket level, the higher the stat boost. When you bind a socket to an item, you will randomly be assigned a level from 1 to 3. If you did not get the desired level, you can destroy your socket and open the slot on your item - and attempt to use a new socket by:
Destruction Rondos can be used to de-bind a socket from an item and free the associated socket slot. The maximum amount of socket slots per item is [3]. Destruction Rondos can be purchased from any Grocery Dealer NPC!
How can sockets be obtained?
Sockets can be purchased from "Socket Dealer Aika" in Donwhang. You will need "Tokens of Dungeon" which can be dropped in any dungeon instance (see "Dungeons" section for more info).
How do sockets work?
Purchase a "Magic Stone of Sockets" from the Grocery Dealer NPC in Alexandria.
Each stone costs 20m gold.
Once you have acquired the stone(s), you can open socket slots on your items. Sockets can ONLY be used on your WEAPON and SET (6 equipment pieces).
Press the "Y" key on your keyboard to open the alchemy window. On the left-hand side of the alchemy window, two buttons can be seen. Select the bottom button named "Socket Alchemy."
Drag and drop your item into the slot, press "Make Socket," and select one of the "closed" slots.
Now, you can use your desired socket on your item! Drag and drop the socket onto the now-opened slot and bind it. Simple, right?
Available Sockets:
Weapon: Passive:

Lvl 2: Str 2 Increase.

It started as an event (Survival Arena) but by the years it became a lot more than an event. It is now a big part of the core system of Ruby!
Solo Arena.
Being by far one of the most crowded and loved activities by the great majority of our players we had no other option but to make it one of the main activities. Practically this means that players who love (Survival Arena) can dedicate themselves to their favorite activity without having to worry about anything else.
Each kill will grantee you 1 honors points, 1x coin of combativeness (5x maximum on each survival)
Top 5 counter players will get:
1st: 250 Silk, 3x Magic POP Card and 2% Lucky boost scroll
2nd: 200 Silk & 1x Magic POP Card
3rd: 150 Silk
4th: 100 Silk
5th: 75 Silk
Party Arena.
Like battle arena, you will be able to have your own party and play versus other parties in the Survival Arena, it will be much fun!
Reward: 150 Silk each winner (1200 silks for the whole party as a total)
Guild Arena.
Same like battle arena, we managed to make the Guild Survival Arena too, gather your guild mates and prepare for the epic fight. This arena will be very competitive, instead of fighting in the FW only, you will have another chance to prove yourselves!
Reward: 100 Silk each winner (2400 silks for the whole guild as a total)
Union Arena.
We managed to make the Union Survival Arena too, gather your guild mates and prepare for the epic fight. This arena will be very competitive, instead of fighting in the FW only, you will have another chance to prove yourselves!
Reward: 100 Silk each winner (7200 silks for the whole union as a total)
Top Arena Gladiators.
The top 3 Survival Gladiators (top players in terms of k/d) will receive the following rewards:
1. Survival Unscathed Title.
2. Special Pink & White Wings.
Survival Arena articles:
GUILDS.
Below you can find all information regarding guilds and unions. We are aiming at many large communities than a few big ones, wishing to achieve the largest scale competition.
Union Chat.
All members of the guild can have the union chat authority.
Start Level.
All guilds will start instantly from level 5 once created. This will help players group faster and access all guild functions sooner.
Limits.
Obviously, guild and union limits will be way lower than what they used to be originally. We want to create an environment with great competition for all types of guilds and unions!
ALCHEMY. Alchemy is a huge part of this game. It can make you love the game or hate it. We want to improve your experience with alchemy. Below you can find what we did in order to achieve this.
Advanced Elixirs
We understand the frustration of getting a high plus, that's why we're introducing advanced elixirs into our server.. to make your life easier! It can be purchased from Arena Item Exchanger for Arena Coin.
Plus Glows.
Truth is in all Ruby our players kept asking us to change the plus glows (especially +8s). We finally did it! Many high plus values glow which we considered as ugly, have been completely changed.
Plus Glows
Lucky Increase Items.
There are plenty of lucky increase items available, you can now increase your chances on Alchemy. Those items can also be very useful for the economy as they will be something normal players will be selling to donators gaining some great amounts of Silks.
Lucky Increase Scrolls.
1. [1%] Available on Gold Miner for gold.
2. [2%] Available on Ruby Seller Fahrhat for activity token.
MAGIC POP.
Who doesn't love gambling? fun thing about it is you can spend just one magic pop card to obtain something worth more than 1000 silk. That's why we added many precious items that will be very interesting to gamble on.
Devil's Spirit Statistics:
Devil's Spirit - one of the several additional attachments that can be utilized to build your character's strength. From stat boosts to blocking rate, the Devil's Spirit provides you with numerous advantages that can easily assist you in conquering your opponents in-game! This item will be an important addition to any character; therefore, it was no secret that we at Ruby needed to improve upon & expand the entire system. Innovation at its finest, eh?
• Devil Differentiation:
There are [5] different types of Devil's Spirits in Ruby 2021.
• Devil's Spirit (A)
• Angel's Spirit (A)
• Devil's Spirit (S)
• Angel's Spirit (S) • Asura's Spirit (S)
- (S) spirits have boosted stats compared to the typical (A) class spirit items. You can obtain (S) type spirit items from Magic POP!
- Asura's Spirit has the exact same stats as (S) class spirit items. It is a custom-designed spirit with a cool look, and only has visual differences!
You can view each of the spirit skills in action below!
Spirit Skill Appearances
• Devil Alchemy:
You are able to enhance the power of your Devil's Spirit by performing alchemy on it - similar to most gear in-game. The maximum plus of any Spirit item is [+5].
Below, you can see the exact statistics of the maximum plus (+5) on your Spirit item.
