New CoboDex? Interesting.

Ritsu09/11/2025 10:12

Yep! Necessary labor to keep it up to date as there was a major framework release (actually years ago already) and it was kinda easier to just rewrite it from scratch, given I was unhappy with how certain things worked (eg. confusing login session between website and the third party comment widget - now self-made).

I’ll probably make a post to cover the new and upcoming features once it’s officially linked to the main domain.

Oh wow, it auto-updates comments without needing to reload the page! Neat!

I did have to reload the page to post this, though.

Ritsu
Ritsu09/11/2025 14:37

Seems like you just had to wait until it reloaded itself after erroring on captcha token (spam protection). Regardless, I’ve made it so it automatically reloads on your next comment, so you don’t need to wait or reload the page anymore.

might have to let go of anonymity, but public douchery isn’t new to me.

seems like not much new in the new week in KR, but it’s interesting seeing els get kpop tie-ins recently after a few years not having them. by my guess, despite its (as i hear it) popularity, the game hit some kind of budget low after atlas (the point when the music started being not-in-house) and recovered sometime around or after berthe raid. that’s also about the timeframe i think i stopped seeing band tie-ins. maybe.

The Elrios Guardian Knights Avatar will be added to EP Shop > Avatar tab

Nice. I'm gonna have to compare it to the non-IB costume I've set for my build once the individual effects are public.

NPC Exchange UI updated

Finally!

Costume: Bethma Coexistence Festival Package

I can't tell if that's supposed to be Indian-themed or cowboy-themed. Maybe both? Idk. Regardless, it looks nice. ... This is something we can get permanent versions of, right?

Not exactly an exciting patch, but it's alright.

Qij08/28/2025 03:07

there are clothes irl where the aesthetics of the dressing styles of pueblo native american groups, then-recently-ex mexicans, and pioneer cowboys intersect to varying degrees. afaik, a lot of the time worn by native americans adapting to western styles of the time, according to the old pictures.

and that's not getting into the gauchos and the mexican natives north of the aztecs.

for the most part, i don't think they look too much like what's here, but it's not a bad looking inspired-by.

Flare Kyn08/28/2025 13:07

Okay, seriously, what was wrong with this comment that it had to be downvoted?!

Qij
Qij09/08/2025 05:04

someone(s?) has a bone to pick and they have the means to pick on it with impunity. i think the "hide" function next to the "reply" prompt will serve them (and you) much better (as it has served me). but maybe for some reason that's not available to non-anons, i don't actually know.

Flare Kyn
Flare Kyn09/08/2025 07:41

It is available to non-anons, but it's kinda invisible until moused over. Though I don't think they'd care.

Still upvoting you, though.

They made the new f2p IB substitute (which took only 10+ years to happen) bankshareable??? And with a semi-decent set effect too?????
Someone must have been killed for this to happen because otherwise nothing can explain such a sensed decision...ah of course, it costs 2.7 billion ED for 5 / 5 and weapon which together with the accessories adds up to only 3.25 billion ED. Per character.

<They made the new f2p IB substitute (which took only 10+ years to happen) bankshareable??? And with a semi-decent set effect too????????

Where were you when the accessories released? I kinda expected this to happen in the back of my mind when the accs came out.

Flare Kyn
Flare Kyn08/28/2025 13:05

I meant the release of the costume, not the cost. I actually didn't even notice the cost part of his comment.

NSJ
NSJ08/28/2025 12:44

Are you dumb? The cost is in EP. It's 200m for the 5/5 and 70m for the weapon.

cabbage3
cabbage308/28/2025 17:10

I know the cost is in EP mister know-it-all, i just put by mistake an additional zero (1 million ED instead of 100k ED for each EP) when i made the calculation. No need to be so pissy

cabbage3
cabbage308/28/2025 17:21

Before someone else gets agitated, i calculated wrong.
It's 270 million ED for 5 / 5 and weapon and 550 million ED for the 11 accessories for a total of 820 million ED (which obviously is still a lot but much less worse than what i previously said)

He's already admitted he got the math wrong and corrected it.

Qij
Qij08/27/2025 19:15

ah. guess i'm not done temporary-alt farming yet. alrighty then.

bethma mention

so about all those less prominent non-human people species like the lizardmen, pongos (most recently relevant in RV's lore of all classes), otter people, and the dwarves.

but bethma is kind of appropriate, since the most recent raid arc was pretty much a much stupider variant of Kayak's shenanigans. ... lizardmen are just getting raw deals right from the start of the game's plot huh.

speaking of reptilian-looking folk. where are the orc-stand-ins, the glitters?

Unfortunately, they did not disclose it. We have to wait for the update to hit live servers.
