Let’s listen directly from our developer – The progress of international version
Hello. We are "Tree of Savior" development team. There were so many questions regarding international or foreign versions of the game so I asked the programmer of “Tree of Savior”, Hebrew Young. ▲ Hebrew Young consumed too much caffeine and no one can recognize him these days. Q) Hello Hebrew Young. Lots of users are asking for the international version of the game. How’s the progress? A) Hello. I am the programmer in charge of “Tree of Savior”, Hebrew Young. We just finished converting all the texts in the game in Unicode, and now we are concentrating on making the selection of different languages within the game possible. Q) Do we choose different languages at the start of client execution? Or is it possible to change the language while we are playing the game? A) When you change the language at option, all the interfaces, dialogues and all other texts will be shown in different language. ▲ Korean ▲ English ▲ And even Japanese Q) Are the English version and the Japanese version ready for CBT? A) We are preparing, but since those translations were not done by natives, they may feel little awkward. We plan to provide a way to receive suggestions to modify translations from the community in the future. Q) Okay so then, are you planning to have one server where all the users from all around the world connect at the same time? Will the international participants also be able to join CBT? A) Right now, since we are preparing for CBT phase of the game, the servers for the test will be located in Korea initially. Therefore, we are going to test how stably the people who live far away from Korea play the game and based on the results we will gather from this test, we will decide whether we will add more physical servers to the other regions besides Korea. Q) Are you going to support only the three languages that are mentioned above? A) If we have all the translated texts, we can basically support all the languages which have corresponding language codes. For the version which we are currently developing at the moment, there is a feature that we can modify the texts in the game directly and I think if we can improve this feature, we are thinking about distributing the language sets to the users and when they are finished with translations, we will add them in the game. Q) Thank you so much for your time. Let me know when you have updated news. By the way, why do people call you Hebrew Young? A) People started to call me Hebrew Young ever since I selected Hebrew for the first language to test under multi-language version of the game. Well……………. I don't know what to say..
NPC Origins – Bullet Marker Master
NPC Origins – Bullet Marker Master Who is Flint Winterwood? Flint Winterwood's hobby is keeping an eye out for exciting opponents. Unlike others who may simply hunt stronger foe, Flint searches for a deeper challenge: opponents who can match his skill in battle and offer an interesting fight. This follows that he relishes the trial presented when facing off and defeating wickedly skillful foes. And to continue to do so he has developed the areas of gun-tech, marksmanship, and bullet manufacturing. Although he did not break any of the Kingdom’s laws, he did have a poor reputation due to his life or death fighting ways. In truth, he lived by his own rules and presented a personality that was hardened and not the least bit sociable. But this changed when the day came that his opponents were no longer people, but monsters and demons. It was that day, Medzio Diena, that helped his reputation. Winter Flint A mansion, dating back centuries, had been overtaken by a melancholy mood that matched its aging years. Yet, it was not always like that. Just a few weeks ago, the mansion glowed with the prestige it had gathered over the years and the atmosphere was not so heavy. But, the actions of a certain someone led to a family meeting being held in a mood so somber that it affected not only the disposition of the mansion but the extended family as well. Walking down a corridor of this mansion, in the direction of the meeting, were two men and one woman. Of these three people, the one to the far right, Vaidotas Winterspoon, addressed the man walking to his left. “’I did wrong. I will not do so again in the future.’ That is what you will say. Understood? Don't speak of anything else.” The woman interjected, “But, why must our Flint apologize? And you, Vaidotas, are being quite annoying.” ”You are the annoying one, Lucienne. Do you then think it's alright for Flint to be punished?” “What did he do that this is the case?” “I also think he did nothing wrong. But if it's all so simple, why have the elders gone so far as to hold a family meeting?” “For the elders to feel the need to do so, shows how old fashioned they are. If Flint inherits the head of the household our family will have to change as well.” “It's important that he first endures today's meeting before considering his inheritance.” Although Flint was carefully listening to the words of his cousins, he did not speak. It was not that he refused to answer, but rather he had yet to decide what it was that he would do. Whether they were aware of this or not, Vaidotas and Lucienne continued their debate until the three of them arrived at the doors of the meeting. Just before opening the door, Vaidotas stressed his previous thoughts onto Flint one final time. The door, now opened, revealed dozens of men and women sitting inside the hall. A look around and one would note a single, remote chair that was prepared as though its future occupant was to face trial or interrogation. To the front and at an angle on either side of this chair, the men and women waited. Vaidotas and Lucienne took their seats in their respective places. And, without a word, Flint Winterspoon, the man who had followed them both, took his place at the center in the lone chair. However you viewed it, this event was for him. Although his seat seemed that of a criminal on trial, he was today's main protagonist. In other words, today these people would judge if he would be a hero or a villain. From that perspective, you could say he was less like a criminal waiting trial and more like an actor awaiting the reviews of the audience. Now there was but one place of honor that remained empty. If this place was also filled then the hall would seat 33. However, if one excludes the man sitting in the place of the defendant, there were only 31 people sitting around him, staring him down. An elderly man, sitting to the right of the empty place of honor, opened his mouth to speak. “With this, the current members of the Winterspoon family who have completed the rite of passage, for the exception of one, have all gathered here today. In place of our vacant Patriarch, I will take the role of eldest and announce the start of the 817th Family Meeting.” He paused slightly before continuing. “Kohath Winterspoon you have requested the right to speak and thus, you may go first.” To his right, a man sitting in the center of the group rose, bowed his head towards the rest of the family in greeting, and spoke. “This meeting was originally intended to be a joyful one to fill the vacancy of the Patriarch in the family. However, it is unfortunate that one of our members, who was a strong candidate for such a position, has been suspected of violating the family law and the rules of the alchemists. This meeting now serves as an investigation. Our family has been regarded for centuries as the most prestigious in the kingdom and the very founders of alchemy.” Kohath took a breath, then spoke on. ”One. An Alchemist's research and results will not interfere with the divine providence of the Goddesses. Two. An Alchemist's research and results will not bring harm to the Goddesses. Three. An Alchemist will never use the Goddesses or humans as raw material. All Alchemist will seek to follow the aforementioned provisions and will work to ensure others do as well. As you know, as a member of this family, these are the first sentences you learn and last that you keep until the day you die. Yet, it seems that Flint Winterspoon has allowed these rules to slip his mind. He hopes to use alchemy to craft more powerful weapons. If we begin to use the skills and capability of our family to create such things, what sort of issues will arise? What sort of horrible place will our world become if these weapons exist? I judge that we stop this type of research and experimentation. There is not one person in the history of the Winterspoon family who has directly used alchemy to develop weapons. No, even more, no one has spared the thought. And to come here and hear that the person who will be inheriting the family hopes to use alchemy as a foundation to create weapons cannot be ignored.” When he was done, a young man raised his hand and asked for permission to address the family. The elderly man gave such permission with his eyes, and the younger one began. It was Vaidotas Winterspoon. ”What was just said does not match the truth. Cheminis Sword, Vine Equipment, Riena Equipment and more were all created by our family or were provided for by our skill. With these weapons we have made great contributions to the kingdom by saving many lives. If we consider this example, and continue to think that making weapons with alchemy is a problem then this would lead to the absurd thinking that all blacksmiths and weapon makers in our world are killers who do not know the sanctity of life.” Although a select few nodded at Vaidotas words, Kohath did not stand down. ”Do you think I don't know that? My nephew knows of only one thing and speaks unknowingly of the second. Do you know how long ago gun powder was invented? During the time of Sosel the 2nd, our family created gun power, yet as time passed, as powerful as it may be, gun power based weapons did not become the norm. Even the majority of the Kingdom's soldiers use spears and swords. Have you considered why?” But before Vaidotas could retort, another person raised their hand. This time it was Lucienne Winterspoon. With permission, she began to speak. “Nonetheless, the Royal Army does use Sappers and Cannons. The reason why the Kingdom tends not to use gun power is because they are already using weapons founded in magic and divine energy that are just as good as gun powder. But this doesn't mean that gun power is weak. Guns and swords are all just weapons. Our family applied alchemy to swords and spears, so there is no reason for us not to do the same with gun powder based weapons. It is our family that has developed gun power and we should consider it time to develop it further, Father.” And with grace Lucienne Winterspoon ended her appeal. But Kohath words were harsh. ”I have failed as my daughter’s teacher. From the time of Sosel the 2nd for thousands of years, you think that various patriarchs have not thought of applying such research because of a lack of curiosity or ability? It was through wisdom and discretion that they began to realize the dangers.” Before either Lucienne or Vaidotas could recover permission to speak, the doors flew open and a single person walked in. Although not a usual attendant of such meeting, it was for this person that the highest chair of honor was left vacant. And though not many were used to seeing her, all members of the family knew her face. It was not a face easy to forget even if seen only once over several decades. Time had passed and yet her features had not changed at all, making her all the more recognizable. When she entered the room, the other members of the family rose from their seats and bowed their heads in reverence of the eldest member. And as she walked, she began to speak, “Although I have attended great meetings, it has been awhile since I've attended one where the moment it opens a debate has already started.” The elderly man who was acting representative addressed her. ”It has been awhile, Great Aunt.” The woman, Lucid Winterspoon casually nodded her head and disappeared. Reappearing in the vacant chair high above. ”As time went by I grew tired of being called Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Great-Great-Grandmother and asked to go by Great Aunt, but Kenaz, we are both old and to hear you call me that has put me off.” Lucid Winterspoon took her seat and the rest if the family followed suit. As Kenaz Winterspoon considered what to say, Lucid stopped him. “In the time it took to approach this chair I saw all that had occurred here. You do not need to explain it to me.” With that said, Lucid turned her attention to the man sitting in the defendant's chair, Flint Winterspoon. ”It is not clear if pausing a heated discussion is the best idea, but if the opinions differ so much as to start a fight and where opposing opinions could lead to further misunderstandings, the discussion must be put to rest. And I think that time has come.” After speaking, Lucid took a moment to examine the other members one by one. She saw in them the descendants of her brothers and sisters who had long passed away centuries ago. Then spoke again. “Although, I would like us to share our thoughts and wisdom to work towards an appropriate conclusion, I know that the truth is that we do not have the time. Lucid Winterspoon directed her next question towards Flint, “This whole time, we still have not asked you of your opinion. Hearing the opinion of the others is important, but first we must hear from you. What are your thoughts? Do you wish to use alchemy to develop these powerful bullets and sell them?” Flint Winterspoon, shocked by the appearance of a famous family member he had only heard stories about, was at a loss for words. As such, Lucid Winterspoon waited quietly for the answer and this was the result. ”I would prefer if it was not summarized in that way, but your summary is not wrong. Great Aunt.” Lucid Winterspoon turned back to the whole assembly, ”For the exception of a few, the majority of the family members here oppose this thought. I, for one, think that working on something again with alchemy that I have left untouched for the last 100 years would bring exciting developments...” Kohath Winterspoon's mouth fell open and a weak indignant voice escaped his lips. “Great Aunt!” But Lucid Winterspoon silenced him with a wave of her finger. ”This is not the time to get excited, my boy. I simply mean that I do not wish to deal with the family's work here and there. And I am past the age of being able to do such exciting experiments... She stopped and after a long paused continued again. ”I understand that this is not the opinion you would like to hear. But if anyone shares a different one then feel free to speak. But right now, I will ask Flint. The work you would like to do, can you complete it with the help of our family?” Flint's expression changed. It was because he had never let the thought cross his mind. Lucienne and Vaidotas, who were sitting amongst the family, shared a look over this exciting prospect and waited for Flint's response with anticipation. The other family members as well shared a similar anticipation as they stared at Flint. His concerns were many, but time was short and the answer he had for himself was ever more so. Thus his answer came easy. “Of course not. I would not need to focus on the Winterspoon's family power or influence. But, the problem remains that I will not be using my skills for the family.” “If that is the case, why do you feel the need to convince them? If you have no interest in the patriarch seat, can't you simply go and do the work you wish? If you feel frustrated and unable to use your talents within the family, then leave. The family will not collapse without you. I know this because I, too, have done nothing to contribute to the family for centuries.” Kohath and a few others wished to protest but, the family, for centuries, faced no problems with the absence of Lucid's alchemy and there was no evidence to support the opinion that removing Flint would suddenly cause problems. But Flint was still shocked by the idea of leaving the family, a thought that had never occurred to him. But as he thought about it the more the idea was to his liking. When Lucid Winterspoon saw this change she was prompted to speak. “If Flint leaves the family, then whatever work he does we have no reason to interfere. However, we cannot ignore the fact that the foundation of Flint's work is our own teachings. So, if you carry the Winterspoon name you cannot complete the work you would like to do. Whatever comes next will be difficult, and ending your connection with the family will also bring challenges, so in the future go by the name, Winterwood. I ask that you use this name as a guide to remember to walk the path between what you have learned from the family and what you hope to do in your own work.” Kohath spoke, ”Saying he will leave the family does not excuse him from the rules of alchemy. It is not just our family but all Alchemists in the Kingdom -- no the world who must adhere to these immutable principles.” Lucid Winterspoon replied. ”I know your worries. But Flint is not the type of person to use what he has learned with reckless abandonment. You too already know this, no? And I also believe that in the long-term this work will be good for the family and for the advancement of our world. Have you forgotten that I am a Chronomancer? And if you would like to discuss the rules of alchemy, it was I who was at the center of its creation. Forget the thought that you can tie me down using the fear of these principles.” Kenaz, not waiting to miss the opportunity to keep the rarely seen Lucid Winterspoon involved with the family, spoke. ”If it pleases you, how about also recommending the next head of the family? Just mention a promising person to be patriarch and you can go your way.” If the person Lucid picks does become the next patriarch, and Lucid is there to help them the success of the family would be even greater. If one considers the generations of patriarchs who had begged Lucid earnestly for a single shred of advice, this was an opportunity the family could not let slip by. “You should pick a person from the next generation. Vaidotas would do well. The family elders will help to guide the younger Patriarch...” Kohath who was ignoring Kenaz's gaze had a need to object this time too. “Vaidotas' alchemist abilities are fine. But he does not share the same strength as Flint. He is but a scholar. And, as you know, to be the patriarch you need to have a certain level of fighting skill as well.” On hearing this, Kenaz realized that Kohath was not opposed to Vaidotas as leader but rather wanted to restrain Lucid to the role of looking after a weaker patriarch. To ensure what this is what was said, Lucid Winterspoon spoke first. “Since he is still young we can prepare him carefully. To develop his other skills. If you feel anxious, we can send him to train. In fact, let us do this. Recently, the Swordsman Master gave up his public office and retired to Klaipeda. Let us send Vaidotas to Klaipeda to receive his guidance.” The elder, Kenaz, spoke. “Learning how to fight like a warrior isn't bad, but don't you think, if it is possible, learning how to fight as a Wizard from you, Great Aunt, would be simpler?” “The Wizard Society would be in an uproar if I trained him. It would be seen as favoritism and I will still need to be responsible for the work I am supposed to do. Send him south. Let him experience the Great Woodlands and other areas, and along the way I will teach him about the climate of each region and their special materials. It has been hundreds of years since I've trained someone in alchemy. But I will yield this amount. In this case you will arrive to Klaipeda a bit late, but warrior training needs not to be rushed.” At this, Lucid stopped and closed her eyes for a moment. ‘No…if our family’s members try to save this world, even just a small step it will prove difficult. We will have to match the time… We cannot be too strong, nor weak, we must match the moment perfectly… It doesn’t need to be Vaidotas, but there is also no reason not to. As long as it does not interfere with the providence and expectations of the Goddesses, it will be okay…’ And like that the thought disappeared. Of course, she could not share her thinking with the others. Instead, she turned to Flint and spoke. ”You have given up the burden of Patriarch, but there is other work you must bear. I will pray that the honor of the goddesses be revealed through you. You still retain half of the family name and for that you must carry our reputation with you.” This frustrated Flint.” If someone else has said that I would not have found it so strange, but from you Great Aunt, I do not know.” At that accusation, Lucid replied. ”Oh? But it is like that, no? Even if we go our separate ways, no matter how far we go, we cannot be fully apart.” When those words were spoken, Lucid Winterspoon, without a single goodbye began to disappear. The remaining family members, who were used to this behavior, sent her off by bowing their heads. Although they did not have the ability to see as far into the future as Lucid, they could feel that this was the start of a new era. However, not one of them remaining there knew how difficult this new era would be.
Guild Territory War_PvP Content Adjustment
Hello saviors, this posting is about details of PvP contents Adjustment and a brief introduction for the next update. Guild Territory War Rule of Guild Territory War will be adjusted as follows. - Allocates market fee from every 6 Guild Territory areas. - A guild can have up to 15 members in one area at a time. - The way to seize territory is changed. Market Fee given to the Champions League spot will now be expanded to every spot. Area Market Fee Share (Before) Total: 10.0% Market Fee Share (Before) Total: 15.0% Genar Field Baron Allerno Aqueduct Bridge Area 4.0% 3.0% 3.0% 2.50% Salvia Forest Sventimas Exile Nuoridin Falls X 2.50% For now, 10% of the market fee is given to 3 guilds who've seized the GTW Champions League. But after the adjustment, 6 spots will equally receive 2.5% of the market fee. The total fee for the server will be increased from 10% to 15%. Guild who have seized the Champions League can still receive the fee of NPC shop. But the guild cannot change the Tariff Rates and will be fixed to 10% (price of the original game). The benefits system of the Unknown Sanctuary, installation of the Unknown Sanctuary entry, and the system that enables guilds who have seized 1 or more GTW to participate in the Giltine and Sulivinas Lair Blockade for a ranking battle to receive reward will be maintained. With the expansion of fee contribution, the number of guild members for GTW will be limited to 15 guild members per guild. Each member can move the spots freely once the total members are 15 or less, and the authorized guild member or the guild master can check each number of guild members participating in each spot. Guild that has multiple participants for GTW can distribute the members to seize many spots at the same time. Distribution of each attack is an important strategy. Also, guilds with small participants can seize the spot once 15 members' powers are gathered. Defense buff will be applied to the guild who seized the spot, and no buff will be applied to the guild who attacks the spot. The way how you seize the Guild Territory will also be changed. Currently, the point increases proportionally to the number of guild members in the range of the Guild Territory and the guild who reaches the point of 1000 first seizes the guild. But after the adjustment, the attacking guild will interact with the Spot Tower for a few seconds and if nothing bothers, it will be seized immediately. The details are still in testing, and the adjustments for the unnatural rule will be processed frequently after the update.

Questions and Answers about TOS #4
Hi, I`m developer SY Kim. TOS is a game which is currently under development. Therefore, please understand that the answers that are given below can be changed in the future. Furthermore, “R○○narok” is not related to TOS in any way since all rights of the game belong to the other company. Therefore, do not misunderstand TOS as a sequel to “R○○narok”, and for those of you who send us questions without knowing this fact, please do not get confused. Q) Is it possible to record in-game video clips or take screenshots? (FLV, MP4, WMV formats are preferable) A) We temporarily inserted a feature which allows recording in-game video clips since that makes easier for us to develop the game. However, we haven’t decided whether or not to insert this feature in the official version of the game. It will be possible to take screenshots in the official version of the game. Q) I heard that it is possible to automatically form a party when players are just nearby each other. Is it also possible to manually select the members within each party? A) After FGT, We found out that lots of people feel awkward and difficult on this automatic matching people to form parties so we are modifying the party feature so that everyone can understand it easily. We will tell you more about it when our development is completed on this feature. Q) Is there card system in TOS? What about fixed Loot and XP system? Are items’ stats fixed? A) We do have cards in the game, but we don’t have any system which allows combining those cards on to items to have any optional effects on items. The types of items and XP that can be obtained from the monsters in the game are fixed for each monster. However, when a player’s level exceeds monsters’ levels too much, then EXP points that the player will acquire will start to diminish. Items’ parameters are also fixed by item’s category and parameters can be improved by inserting jewels on items. If you insert a magic amulet on to an item, extra options will be activated. Jewels and magic amulets can be inserted together. ▲ Magic amulet and gris-gris are inserted to the sheild and the sword. Q) Is there a guild system in CBT? A) CBT will be small scale and we are planning it for a short range of period so there won’t be guild system in CBT. Q) I saw a spear from a video clip. Is there a knight who uses spear in the game? This is very important to me. A) We have a class which is specialized in using spear. Especially, Hopelight which uses one handed spear and a shield will become much more powerful when it is with Centurion class. ▲ Centurion Army put on the Hoplites. Q) What does Wugushi mean which was mentioned in Questions and Answers #3? A) In Chinese letters, it is written 巫蠱師. We got an inspiration from the tribe who were specialized in making and using poisons. Q) Are the characters all left-handed? They were attacking with left hand when I watched a video clip. A) When characters are using weapons on right hand, characters are hardly visible on the screen so to make them more visible, we changed the sides. I never thought you would notice this... Please think of it as the image reflected from mirror. Q) Are there daggers in the game? A) Daggers act as sub-weapons in TOS. The items that will be equipped on left hand will all be called sub-weapons and some of them can be used by pressing C key. When you are equipped with a dagger, you can attack the monsters using C key. Therefore, certain classes in Swordsman can attack faster by pressing Z key and C key repeatedly. There are other sub-weapons such as magic items which can use unique skills and some other equipment that are not really important in the game. Q) Are monsters’ re-spawn locations random A) Yes. They are random. But the monsters are made to pull each other so they can be grouped together. Q) Is it possible to change BGM on each map? A) We haven’t decided yet. Do you need a player which can switch to different music in the game? Please send us your suggestion. Q) How do stats work? Is it possible to freely allocate the points to stats that have been accumulated by leveling up? A) 1 point will be given after each level up. You can freely allocate this point on any of four stats. Q) Can we have pets in TOS? If there are pets, will they assist us in battles or boost our stats? Are there mounts in TOS? A) It is hard to clearly distinguish between pets and mounts in TOS. Some of the pets in the game can be used as mounts and some mounts can help you in battles and the level of closeness between you and the mounts can be increased. In our development team, we call them collectively as “Companions”, and this word may become the one of the official glossaries in the game. Some companions can’t be riden nor it can help us in battles, but they will either help us in transportation or in other ways. There will be many types of companions in the game. Thank you.
Regarding to Deletion of Legend Raid Portal Stone
Greetings saviors! Legend Raid Portal Stone will be removed on the next big update. Currently, two types of Raid Portals Stones are provided in-game, just like it has been done before Unique and Legend raid have been separated. Although the Unique raid has been deleted, the Legend Raid Portal Stone system haven't changed and the Legend Raid Portal Stone Recipe became the key to obtaining Legend Raid Portal Stone regardless of the current Raid Portal Stone supply. For Legend Raid Portal Stone Recipe, it is a problem when the supply is low, and it is an item of no value when if it is sufficient. Thus, we have decided to delete the Legend Raid Portal Stone on the next big update. After the next big update, Raid Portal Stone will be unified in to 1 kind and we will increase the supply of Nucle Powder, Sierra powder, and Raid Portal Stone in-game. We will deeply monitor the supply and consumption of major goods in the game according to the demand, and manage the balance of free and premium items so that the balance does not collapse in the future as well. - Following items will not be able to trade via market anymore after the update. >Recipe - Legend Raid Portal Stone, Legend Raid Portal Stone (Market/Trade X, Team Storage O) ※ As the items are changed to trade unavailable, the 'Recipe - Legend Raid Portal Stone' and 'Legend Raid Portal Stone' will be removed from the market registration. - Effect when using the items will be changed as follows after the update.

OBT Preview
Greetings, this is Se Yong Kim from “Tree of Savior (TOS)” Dev team. We have completed the open beta version of the TOS build (OBT version) and currently are testing it on our test server. If no significant problem is found, it is more than likely that we will use this version. The following contains the brief descriptions regarding the changes the OBT version would have. 1. Players can now choose the starting point. In CBT version, players started their journey on Klaipeda after getting the divine revelations from the goddesses. In OBT version, however, players can start their journeys from the new city “Orsha.” The Orsha route will largely be the same as the Klaipeda route. Both will have Rank 4 advancement, the storage service and etc. However, the Orsha route will provide players with new areas to explore and new quests to complete. The players from both Klaipeda and Orsha will join paths in “Femidian.” ▲ When creating a character, one can choose the starting city. This choice does alter the early quests and progression. 2. The level cap will be raised to Lvl. 280. In CBT3, players could only reach the lvl. 200 and progress up to Petrified City. The new version will allow players to reach lvl. 280 and new areas will be unlocked. New areas mean new boss monsters and new soundtracks, not to mention new collection for each area. ▲ The current highest accessible area 3. Each area has its own rank. In the previous version, the fields and dungeons only had names. In the OBT version, ranks will appear with their names. (E.g. Field ★★, Dungeon ★★★) As the rank goes up, so do the overall difficulty and the penalty. The rewards will suit the challenges, so don’t worry. Some monsters in the high-ranking fields might be capable of pre-emptive strikes like those of the dungeon monsters. So, you need to stay alert. ▲ Field ★★★, the monsters will attack first. 4. Rank 7 Class will be added. Now your characters can advance to the rank 7 along with two other circles for Rank 6. Let me introduce our new classes in the following. ▲ Dragoon Dragoons are elite spear-wielding soldiers. They will gain more bonuses if they use two-handed spears instead of one-handed ones. ▲ Templar Templars are the commander class that can form and manage guilds. Only the Templar classes can be the guild masters and choose the path a guild could take. For more info on the Guild system, please read the subsection below. ▲ Warlock Warlocks use the power of evil spirits. They can summon or control evil spirits by defeating the enemies. ▲ Featherfoot Featherfoots are the wizards that absorb the life force of the enemies or put curses on the enemies to make combat easier for your allies. ▲ Cannoneer Cannoneers are the archer-type class. The cannon they use do have some shortcomings such as leaving windows of vulnerability before and after firing a shot and cannons might be troublesome to use from time to time. However, you can trust its firepower and the range of area it can cover. Cannons, just like the pistols, fall into sub-weapon category and can be equipped along with crossbow items. ▲ Musketeer Musketeers are the gunner class that uses a rifle. They cannot wield it along with a bow but the musket has high attack speed and effective close-quarter combat skills. ▲ Plague Doctor Plague Doctors are the cleric-type class that high expertise in curing abnormalities of the allies or incinerate that of the enemies. The bird-like beak mask they wear has been treated with special chemicals that protect them against major abnormalities. ▲ Kabbalist Kabbalists are the clerics that practice the ancient magic known as Kabbalah. They either support their allies with infinite power or analyze the enemies’ names to aid them in combat. 5. Guild System will be added. The aforementioned Templars can form and manage guilds. ▲ First, go see Knight Commander Uska and pay handsomely to create a guild. Then, invite friends to your guild. Initially, a guild can accommodate up to 20 people. The max capacity can be increased as the attribute level increases. If you have joined a guild, a Guild tab will be added to your Chat UI. All the discussions both minor and major can be done on this tab without using a mic. Guild masters can raise a guild tower on a field of their choosing. The tower can perform even more functions depending on the guild tower skills the Templar in charge has. Guild members can use the tower to warp, use the guild storage or enter the private area. High-level guild towers can function as a hangout spot. The spot consists of an inside area and a farming garden. In this hangout spot, You can plant crops and harvest them, Or raise unique companions. The crop materials and companions can be obtained from various guild events. A guild master can choose in which guild events to participate. The events will consist of boss raid events, raid missions for guilds, GvG events. Guilds can grow their guild towers by feeding them talt items obtained from those events. As guild level increases, points will be accumulated and you can use those points to grow your guild. There are many ways a guild can grow. A guild can specialize in agriculture or in combat. Guilds can declare war with each other. Warring guilds can destroy each other’s guild tower or PVP the enemy members on fields. There aren’t many things that can be obtained by winning this war so it would be good for everyone to get along well each other. 6. Magic Amulets will be added. The magic amulets that have been distributed for testing purposes in the CBT version will be made available from the lvl. 220. When a magic amulet is attached to one’s shield or weapon, it will grant special stats. The charm attached on the shield is a magic amulet. It can also be attached to weapon. 7. OBT Schedule So far, we have not advertised our game except for one case of an interview. We would like to thank all the users who showed love and enthusiasm for our game despite that. The open beta test is scheduled to be on December 17th, 2015, 3PM. The pre-download will be made available on December 15th, two days prior to the test. The pre-download version will allow players to gain access to the tutorial area. More details on the schedule will be made known through future announcements. Thank you.
Questions and Answers about TOS #3
I am syKim. For those of you still don’t know me, please check out our Questions and Answers for Tree of Savior #2. This week, we will answer more of your questions that we have gathered from our Facebook page and some other sources. Of course, since Tree of Savior is still under development, the answers that are given below can be changed in the future. Q) Is there message feature in the game? For example, is it possible to send a message to a user who is offline? A) Yes it’s possible. The chatting system in TOS is very similar to smartphone messenger. When you log in to the game, all the messages that you have received when you were offline will be displayed. All the previous messages and dialogues will also be saved in our servers so unless you delete them, you will be able to view all of them. there were varieties of emoticons that can used in chatting and messaging, and these emoticons can also be displayed above the characters when you are chatting with other friends. Q) If there are only 8 directions for keyboard, then does it mean you can only attack the monsters which are nearby on non-target basis? What if I want to cast some buffs on specific monsters or players? A) That’s a very detailed question. Many people are asking this question so I think I need to clarify on this question. For the characters such as swordsman or cleric which mainly use short range physical attacks, their attacks will be directed towards the monsters nearby. However, for some other kinds of skills such as healing, so-called buff zones will be created on the ground and by stepping on those buff zones, the effects will be activated. These buff zones can be also used on the monsters for inflicting damages or to debuff some effects on the monsters. By using these skills cleverly, more strategic battles are possible. For the characters that mainly use long range attacks such as wizard or archer, their basic attacks will be targeted automatically towards the monsters that are closest to them from their eye points. This automatic target feature will be also available when you are talking with NPCs or when you want to view other players’ information. Even when you are engaged in a battle filled with lots of other players or monsters, most of time, you will be able to attack the monster that you want to attack when you change the direction to that monster. If you want to target a monster that is further away, then you can manually target the monster using SHIFT and cursor key. Archer can move while attacking an enemy, but the damages that will be inflicted on the enemy depend on the distance from the enemy. So you need to maintain appropriate distances from the enemies in the game. For a few other skills, while pressing onto hotkey, you can move to any location you want by pressing cursor keys. Q) Can we play the game on Mac? A) Yes. It’s possible if you install boot camp. Q) Are there Assassin or Thief classes? A) No. We don’t have any criminal classes at the moment. However, we do have Rogue and Corsair classes that are specialized in hiding and sudden attacks. We also have Wugushi class which is specialized in using poison. Thank you.
NPC Profile - Zealot Master
Zealot Master - Aliza Tal Who is Aliza Tal? Daughter of the leaders of two previously divided Zealot factions, Aliza has been selected as the current Zealot Master tasked with maintaining the order’s unity. Ultimately, the success of this unification will depend on how Aliza approaches her duty as Master, guided by the legacy of her parents. From birth, members of this order have been put through rigorous combat training and religious education as extraordinarily strong will and determination are needed to fulfill the Zealot’s mission. Although the order does not have a friendly relationship with other clerics, Aliza has already demonstrated her ability as Master by earning the trust of not only the Zealots but of other clerics as well. As a Zealot with extraordinary talent, she has the insight needed to lead the order into a bright future as now comes the time where the Zealots’ specialization in searching for absent divinity is ever more important. The Order of the Zealots The Zealots are devoted to searching for the goddesses and returning them to humanity. While other clerics use the divine power of the goddesses through prayer or ceremonies, the Zealots sacrifice their life energy and similar forces to utilize a new power, one that does not borrow from a divine figure. A majority of the Zealot order is concerned with finding Laima and Jurate and those Zealots who have devoted themselves to reestablishing contact with Jurate have separated themselves from the Loremasters. Now that all of the goddesses have disappeared after the events of Medzio Diena, one could say that the Zealots possess an advantage over the other cleric groups. While you are here, feel free to take a look at our previous article about the true history of the Zealot.
