Monster Hunting Development Blog #5

||
|
Hello everyone and welcome to another NovaRO Development Blog! Today we're going to talk about the Shadow Gear you will be able to obtain as a reward from clearing 2-Star Monster Hunting missions. As usual, note that details may change before release.
Due to the large amount of items and the vast differences in their respective power, we decided to separate Great Monsters and Shadow Gear into different Tiers. For this content release, Great Monsters will be introduced to NovaRO in 3 separate waves, with a total of 9 tiers which will progressively increase in difficulty. This means, not every Great Monster and Shadow Gear planned for The Savage Coast will be introduced with the first wave. Hunters will complete a broad variety of activities to craft Shadow Gears, with some examples being:

Shadow Gear Refinement |
||
|
As in official servers, players will be able to refine their Shadow Gear. That said, we will be changing the Shadow Gear refinement system. Shadow Gear refinement will not require Elunium, and instead will consume unique ores that will be exclusively obtained from our 2-Star Monster Hunting missions. We will not be going into the details of this system in this developer's blog, but know that Shadow Gear will never break from refining. |

On Difficulty |
||
|
In closing, we wanted to inform players that while some content may be difficult, players will still be able to obtain a fair amount of these Shadow Gears through Gathering and other methods, without necessarily defeating the Great Monsters. Great Monsters are intentionally designed to fill the void of difficult, end-game content in NovaRO, and thus, the stronger ones will reach a higher difficulty level than any content previously seen in Ragnarok Online. Keep in mind that this is a permanent addition to NovaRO, and new equipment will continue to be implemented on a regular basis.
