Testing and updates on the KR servers.

Posted on Oct 11, 2008 under Guesses, Korean Updates | 62 Comments

I need someone who can read Korean to take a look at this site and do a better translation then google does. As much as I get somewhat of what it’s saying from the translator tool. I would like a better translation and in the right context. In the cut you’ll see the English translation along with a couple of pics….trust me you’ll enjoy them.

Translated by iHavoc. (he wants to let you know that specifics in the NW translation may not be accurate.)

Hi, is Cabal Online.

October 8, 2008 is the update.

    That third screenshort looks to me like a record keeping system of some sort.

  2. GoughGhan Says:

    From what HAvoc just told me that 3rd pic is for different ranks, roughly.

  3. Xiaofen Says:

    Just wanted to say, good job you guys.

  4. Saru Says:

    lol awww no more lvl 40 transcenders

  5. ArshesNei Says:

    I like everything listed except the skill rank restrictions D:

  6. zac_delarocha Says:

    That skill rank restriction kinda suck.. :(

  7. zac_delarocha Says:

    oh i see.. so only friends are allowed to comment..

  8. GoughGhan Says:

    @Zac No your first comment needs to be approved by either me or Divine first, because of a spammer. Thank them if your pissed at that.

  9. Shadowstar Says:

    Well yea i agree the third pic looks like different titles to me. like youll be able to pic which one u wanna show off

  10. Shadowstar Says:

    yea i hate the skill rank limited by lvls i think its retarded hopefully that part of the patch dont fall through. i think thats one thing attracts alot of players is they can choose to skill or to lvl. not make it be a forced choice

  11. tomaboy Says:

    Haha for taking dancing out of Nation War! :D

  12. TransViper Says:

    I think it is stupid and they should just leave cabal alone the way it is. If they do this i will quit and i am sure i am not the only one that feels this way.

  13. SunFlare Says:

    WOW!!! **hurries and skills his ass off to Dual TRans before update hits** =/

  14. zac_delarocha Says:

    @GoughGhan sorry GoughGhan my bad. ^_^

    on topic: all the other updates are good tho:)

  15. Kuchiki Says:

    Does this new Provoke skill have any other effect besides mob aggro?

  16. GoughGhan Says:

    @Toma – sucks for all the afker’s in NW :)
    @Trans – Which part do you think they should leave alone?
    @SunFlare – lol chop chop you should have been dual trans at lvl 30
    @zac – no worries
    @Kuchiki – Not that I’m away of, it’s just a 6 second lure.

  17. F9AngeL Says:

    of Eu cabal? u_U

  18. GoughGhan Says:

    @F9Angel – Yea I put EU Cabal since you seem to be talking to the EU GM’s more then anything. And since I don’t know if your still playing only there or with us too that was my decision lol. Happy I changed it. :P

  19. F9AngeL Says:

    full time US cabal:P but I sometimes go on the korean test server to post some video updates

  20. Zialius Says:

    GOOD! we need skill rank caps!
    no more lv 85 dual trans killing me
    im level 91 so im fine with completer, im in the clear, lol, i can still use dummies and everything, hopefully now we will all be more separated and that lv10 with o life cant kill that lvl 45 thats doin ok with his skilling
    good job lets hope this goes thru

  21. GemFlame Says:

    Hmm, I will only hate these updates, if they take away the ranks of lower levels that they earned before the updates, that would piss me off .-.
    As for everything else, pwnage.. Just damage decrease in pvp will be a pain .-.
    I give these..
    7.5/10 =3
    In my opinion at least.

  22. demonloki Says:

    Does anyone know how much hp the shielders get per rank up I recently quit my shielder so if its significant enough I might just go back

  23. GoughGhan Says:

    Not a clue, though I do know there was a list floating around somewhere that told you what you got for all stats at rank up.

  24. Sylvestar Says:

    I could go on forever in ripping these updates apart. I mean honestly, these updates are not the best(though are they ever?) I just can’t seem to come to any good things in these updates besides the obvious(auction house, the additional damage to multi hit skills, and a few others) But other then that…I don’t think FS needs more hp or a new skill. What they do need is more defense. I mean a class that is supposed to be a tank, and has the same def. that a blader can get to. I remember getting more defense then demonloki a while back.

  25. GoughGhan Says:

    Suck it up and learn to deal? lol

  26. Sylvestar Says:

    I ray fus! NEVA!!! POWA TO DA PEEPOOOOLLLEEEE!!!!! *holds fist in air*

  27. AnonQuestion Says:

    I’m aware this happened before this update but I can’t find it listed anywhere and I’m noticing it more and more in Korean screenshots. What was the event with this black or clear-ish rw3 bike in the pictures and now the gray rw3 cards in screenshots? I’m aware we often don’t get the same events or any event at all in relation to Korea but I thought there might be some chance we might get the item so I might as well ask in case anyone knows.

    As for this update I can’t believe that they feel the wiz needs to be gimped even more. Its bad enough we can’t get RoL+2s on NA, a huge disadvantage, but the staff was a joke to try to make some wizards happy, sure it might look nice to some people, but your gaining a little piece of art that COULD help solve wizards abysmal crit rate and damage problem, only to be laughed at by the devs.

  28. GoughGhan Says:

    @Anon – I’ll have to ask Havoc about what he can find out about those bikes. And from what I can see EU doesn’t have them either. I guess the Devs decided to nerf what classes needed to be…honeslty it needs to be bladers. Though thats pn;y my opinion.

  29. MrFuji Says:

    New adjustments to the Test Server before going into final implementation to the Korean Servers.

    Listed the benefits of the two new titles, still tentative on the names.
    Commander gives:
    HP +500
    Crit Resist +20%
    Crit Dmg. Inc +60%
    Sword & Magic Skill amp +10%
    Increase Crit Rate +5%

    Guard gives:
    HP +500
    Unmovable Resist +60%
    Knock-Down Resist +60%
    Knockback Resist +60%
    Stun Resist +60%

    It was originally planned for HP +1000 and +700 for Guards & Commanders, respectively until they balanced more out.

    The following is applied for Guard(G) and Commander(C) Titles, respectively:
    Attack Damage Increase: (G)=100 (C)=50
    Magic Damage Increase: (G)=100 (C)=50
    Attack Rating Increase: (G)=2200 (C)=1500
    Defense Increase: (G)=1100 (C)=700
    Sword & Magic Amp Increase: (G)=10% (C)=10%
    Increase Crit Rate Resist: (G)=20% (C)=5%
    Increase Crit Dmg Resist: (G)=60% (C)=20%
    Unmovable Resist Increase: (G)=60% (C)=20%
    Knock-Down Resist Increase: (G)=60% (C)=20%
    Knockback Resist Increase: (G)=60% (C)=20%
    Stun Resist Increase: (G)=60 (C)=20%

    As for whatever or not these benefits affect only Nation War… it’s still questionable. There are more to these Changes of the update since they are still testing more out.

  30. MrFuji Says:

    Edit:
    *Defense Increase was meant for Defense Rating** Sorry for the mistake

  31. GoughGhan Says:

    @MrFuji – Thanks for the info!

  32. AsmodeusX Says:

    I think these updates look cool, and i like the idea of the skill caps because i think its stupid that someone who spends tons of time punching something can kill someone who comes on and actually kills mobs and quests…that’s a bit unbalanced if you ask me. I mean don’t get me wrong a lot of the dual trans lvl 30 put their time in for that rank so hopefully that doesn’t get taken away from them, but i think this will be a good update when we get it.

  33. Xiaofen Says:

    Oh wow, those NW benefits as Commander/Guard are pretty insane.

  34. Eclip Says:

    Any idea when this update is to come for NA Cabal? ><;; Gotta try and hit dual trans ASAP now

  35. GoughGhan Says:

    @Eclip – No clue yet, they were just put into KR last weekish. We still need testing in EU before we get it.

  36. Eclip Says:

    Alright cool, thanks for the info.

  37. kuo3a Says:

    when is it gonna come out for NA cabal anyone know?

  38. GoughGhan Says:

    No one knows as of yet. The way the Korean devs are working I’m guessing the same time EU gets it.

  39. ezonix Says:

    honestly, I don’t like this part

    Level Skill rank Battle Style Rank
    =========================================
    0~19 Apprentice 2
    20~29 Novice 3
    30~39 Regular 4
    40~49 Expert 5
    50~59 A. Expert 6
    60~69 Master 7
    70~79 A. Master 8
    80~89 G. Master 9
    90~99 Completer 10
    100~ Transcender 11

    I hope this won’t be implemented
    It would be to boring to use the same skills and you must reach a certain level to have a new skill

  40. GoughGhan Says:

    @ezonix From the newest source I’ve been talking to it’s being implemented on test servers now in EU…..

  41. Plankton Says:

    instead of making new npcs and w/e they should make new skills and maps..

  42. GoughGhan Says:

    Well they are making a couple of new skills though it’s only for the FS’s. Then again I think they need to start working on the new armor thats actually built into the game already.

  43. tomaboy Says:

    So I’m still kind of confused.

    Will shop amount still be left at 10 bil? Will only player-to-player trade be limited to 1 bil? I really hope they aren’t putting a 1 bil limit on our shops because that will make a lot of items non-sellable…

  44. GoughGhan Says:

    We aren’t sure yet. Once we find out we will let everyone know :P

  45. question Says:

    won’t the skill rank per level cap make using training dummies kinda useless, or will the dummies get a change in how they can be used also?

  46. GoughGhan Says:

    @question as far as I know since you wont be able to use the dummie until your lvl 90 now, I don’t see any reason if you get your lvl 100 rankup and your not dual trans yet that you couldn’t get it that way.

  47. hyobin of MarsPH Says:

    the first one is the auction… where there you can auction your items max at 3 pcs it will be there regardless you are offline or online.

    the second pic is the trust shop function…

    the third pic is the newly changed UI function.

  48. ToynDexter Says:

    The Commander and Guard Title benefits are definitely something to look forward to.

    Just wondering, do all titles have inherent benefits to them (e.g. Honor Rank Titles)? They aren’t implemented yet on our version of Cabal and I would just like to know in advance.

  49. GoughGhan Says:

    From what I’ve been reading up on both Korea and EU version the honor rank title benefits should also be put in.

  50. xFallenChaos Says:

    When will all this be implemented? O.o I heard alot of it ingame, And also one of being that tomorrow.. The uh..27th which is the 27th for me right now since its 6am. xD That the skill cap stuff will be here? Is that true or what?

  51. GoughGhan Says:

    @FallenChaos – Not really sure, though I do know testing is being done for a patch for December and right now according to my sources it’s a “busted” patch. I didn’t get any more info than that.

  52. xFallenChaos Says:

    Alright Appreciate it Gough.

  53. SharkBlade Says:

    I personally think that if they would take away the skilling
    then they’re loosing a lot of money because mostly skill exp is
    good for Skilling but exp 25% haha Phatetic…

  54. GoughGhan Says:

    Well this is all in ESTSoft’s infinite wisdom. Actually I think they would make a bit more money with BB+’s and Skill EXP Beads….thats just my thought though.

  55. xFallenChaos Says:

    Does anyone have a date for this update now? Or what, Because people are still talking about it going down tonight, And i was like uh, They didn’t announce it? Lol So not really sure what to suspect.

  56. GoughGhan Says:

    No, noone has a date for this update….and always expect the servers to go down on Wednesday nights.

  57. serafina13 Says:

    So when is all this supposed to happen? Ive heard all kinda of crazy updates… but all i hear is DEC 18th.. when the boars and stuff goes away…. So anyone know yet?

  58. GoughGhan Says:

    Your guess is as good as ours….Im guessing partial implementation of things on this list, just not all of it.

  59. 18th Dec. sucks for updates Says:

    i dont like the skill CAP its a total waste i mean lvl 19 with APP comn wtf how the fuck is a lvl 19 suppose to kill a mob thats higher then ones self with crappy ass noob skills that dont go jack for dmg

  60. GoughGhan Says:

    Well then you need to learn how to actually play the game, until I was completer I used nothing but the so called noob skills because of how fast they casted.

  61. IhateNewUpdates Says:

    So with the new skill rank cap will it revert us back to app for example a lvl 19 with g.m will go back to apprentice or will it stay the rank it is b4 the updates? and why dont they just cancel skill rank and skill lvl with this new update anyway less confusion

  62. GoughGhan Says:

    @IhateNewUpdates – No it will not.
