  1. 🐉 Hosted by: Finnian 🐉 Gathering place: Louyang 🐉 Maximum time: 4 hours (Can be done in less, but it's not uncommon to take nearly the whole time limit.) 🐉 🐉 🐉 To continue celebrating the Lunar New Year, we're going above and beyond with special events! Or in this case, below. Endless Cellar (EC) is an instance dungeon, similar in concept to Endless Tower, but with different monsters and increased difficulty. If the party makes it to the end of this nightmare of a dungeon leading them deep underground, they will arrive at the 100th floor where they must endure a series of trials before facing the fearsome final boss. Check the Endless Cellar wiki article for more details. 🐉 Here to Help 🐉 Finnian and his assistant(s) will provide a few helpful buffs to aid the brave adventurers in their race to the bottom. Party wipe? No problem. Finnian can revive the party. However, for every 3 revives the the prize category will drop (more on this later). 🐉 For the Record 🐉 If the party clears the Endless Cellar quickly and certain qualifications are met, which will be discussed before the event starts, they may contend for the JellyRO Endless Cellar World Record! The current record for EC is: 1 hour 53 minutes 48 seconds 61 milliseconds. A party that manages to break the record will win a Super prize in addition to other rewards earned from completing the instance. 🐉 Get that Bread 🐉 Typically, every 25th floor reached earns the party a reward from the next highest prize category, and these prizes are cumulative. Floor 25 is a Small prize, floor 50 is a Medium prize, floor 75 is Large, and in order to obtain the Super prize the party must defeat the final boss on floor 100. For my Endless Cellar event, the prizes are doubled, and still cumulative! That means, you get double the prizes for each floor milestone passed, and two different Super prizes for defeating the final boss on floor 100. Beat the record using less than 3 revives and you could end up with three Super prizes! As usual, the party will also earn a Jellybean for each hour (rounded up), and 1 Auro per floor passed, up to 100. Even if you dropped one prize category for revives, beating the record will still earn you a Super prize. You can learn more about prize categories here. 🐉 Be Prepared 🐉 The event will start promptly at 8 pm CST (UTC -6). Get your gear and supplies ready ahead of time. Depending on what character classes/jobs show up, it may not be ideal to bring your main, so if you have a viable alt, make sure they can be ready in a couple minutes. Once the event starts you won't be allowed to swap your characters, and each player can only bring one character, so choose wisely! Also make sure you can stay for the full 4 hours if necessary. 2-3 hours may be doable, but don't count on it. 🐉 Adventurers Assemble! 🐉 For Endless Cellar, my party requirements are at least 8 players each bringing a character over level 90, preferably transcended and well-geared. After those requirements are met, anyone else may join, even if all you they do is tag along for the adventure (as well as shared exp and loot) as long as the character is at least base level 69 (party exp share range is +/- 30) and they actively keep up with the rest of the party (No AFK). That being said, I still recommend bringing a character that will realistically be able to assist in fighting. If your character had an active role in a party that beat Endless Tower, they may be ready to try Cellar. This is not required, but Cellar is extremely difficult and inexperienced players may have a bad time. Or maybe it'll be epic, who knows? 🐉 It can be helpful to coordinate with other players. Hop on JellyRO Discord (invite link) and let people know in the #events channel which class you plan to bring.
  2. This month we celebrate togetherness and new beginnings! February 10th kicks off the Lunar New Year festivities, but we're getting started early and going until the next scheduled update so everyone has time to participate. We have an extra live event or two planned aside from the regular weekly event we host on Saturday at 9 PM. Keep an eye on the forum calendar and Discord for upcoming details on other events. We also brought back an unslotter NPC, with a new twist for the Year of the Dragon. The JellyRO staff wishes you all a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year! Welcome, Great Dragon! Behold! The Great Dragon, Dilong, has awoken and is gracing Louyang with his presence to bring good fortune to all who visit. At least we're pretty sure he's Dilong. I haven't actually met him before, but we invited him, and a dragon showed up in Louyang so we're rolling with it. Don't tell him I said this, but something seems a bit off about him. I can't quite make heads or tails of it. When you talk to him, you'll see what I mean. Anyway! The show must go on, and the Great Dragon is ready to unslot cards from your equipment for only 2m zeny per card. To make the deal even better, the Great Dragon will gift you a red envelope containing a significantly boosted random amount of zeny! And you didn't hear this from me, but he will only give one envelope per transaction, even if you remove more than one card at a time. What? Of course I respect the Great Dragon. But there's only one dragon I fear, and it's not him. Event ends on March 4, 2024! Server Reward What generous Jellybeans you are! Yet again we are able to pay our bills and more thanks to your contributions, so a server-wide reward is in order. We hope you all enjoy boosted experience and drop rates: 15/15/7 ! Last month, autoloot commands were a big hit and started some important debates, but no final decision has been made on which if any autoloot commands will become a permanent addition. So that reward has ended, and will hopefully come back again soon. Like last month's reward, the boosted rates will only be staying until the next maintenance. If it proves to be as popular as the last one, you may be seeing more of it in the future, but I must emphasize that it is temporary. We reset the community contribution progress monthly. If you would like to contribute, here is a link: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kathisjellq No pressure, and no personal rewards, just a way you can help keep JellyRO thriving.

  3. Another Halloween has come and gone, and for our friends in the Northern Hemisphere, winter is coming... or in some of our cases has already arrived like an uninvited house guest that is eating all your snacks. So for November, Staff will be working on Christmas stuff, while those who celebrate Thanksgiving this time of year enter into a food coma from eating too much turkey. Next Maintenance is on December 4, 2023! Rule Change Inappropriately named vendor shops have been a problem in the past, and again recently. It's a problem because these signs, which can stay up for quite a while, are highly visible and are nearly impossible to avoid if one needs to visit Prontera. We understand that players use their vendors as a means of protesting, and in some cases even harassing staff, but enough is enough. The following rule has been added to Public Mischief. Setting up a Vending/Buying Shop or a Chat Room with an inappropriate message on the sign. Inappropriate topics for player-made signs include, but are not limited to: politics, religion, and sex. The offending character will be disconnected from the server to remove the sign. This offense earns a 24 Hour Mute for the offending character. On a player's third offense and beyond, they will receive a temporary ban on one or more accounts as deemed necessary. If three or more staff members have deemed the shop name to be inappropriate then it will be treated as such. We will not provide a list of everything that is inappropriate. If you push the boundary, you'll find out. Most of you are adults, so you know what you are doing. Monthly Updates Featured Auro Shop Costumes Featured Jellybean Rewards Additional Notes Auro Shop and Jellybean exchanger have been updated. Jellyblob was updated to reflect change in Auro Shop costumes. Reduced fame points by 10% for all characters on accounts inactive for 90 days. Halloween scripts have been disabled.

  4. Summer is winding down, and the festivities have concluded as we get ready for Fall and Spooky Season! We hope you enjoyed the carnival and got all the prizes you wanted. Did anyone try the Petting Zoo game? Tell us what you thought of it. We already have a few improvements in mind for next summer, including an update for the contents of Summer Gachas. Stay tuned for more details on that in the near future. Also, Barb the bear was happy to get so much business from unslotting cards from your items. She'll be set for a while so don't expect her to come back very soon, but I'm sure we'll see her again. Next maintenance is on October 2, 2023!

  5. Ah~ lazy summer days! This update is a bit on the light side, but we're just saving our energy for next month! We still managed to squeeze in a couple changes we hope you enjoy. If you feel like rage-quitting every time you get a Mercenary Summon Scroll from a Jellyblob, you will be pleased to know we have removed all but the level 3 and 6 scrolls, and added level 10 scrolls. You'll see them a lot less than before. Also, we added some rare pet taming items to the Jellyblobs. A complete list can be found in the Additional Notes. The Party Don't Stop! At least not until the beginning of September. If you have been participating in any Summer Event activities, you probably got a few Event Costume Boxes (containing Summer Suits) and Summer Festival Coins. Make sure you keep those in a safe place because rumor has it the Carnival Crew will make their annual appearance again for the End-of-Summer Festival this August, and those items will come in handy for playing games at the festival.

  6. Suit up, Jellybeans! It's time to hit the beach. The sand is hot, but the prizes are super cool! In addition to our Summer traditions of volleyball and summer suits (more on these later), we put a cute little random item capsule in the Auro Shop that will keep you coming back for more... surely this time you'll get that rare Guardian Angel [1] or Demonic Whispers [1] mid headgear. Summer is just starting to heat up, and you can expect plenty of fun times ahead. This event runs all season long with another update or two along the way. For now, get out there and practice your Super Mega Final Spike Attack! Fun in the Sun! Volleyball is back on Beacon Island! (/navi cmd_fild07 255/111) Gather a partner and another team of 2, and pay 1000z per player to participate. Join as either Team Galapago or Team Smokie to score points against your opponent and keep them from scoring points against you. Details can be found here. Winners can get Auro up to 3 times a day! You may also win Summer Coins, which you will want to save for later this summer. Random monsters will drop Aloha Shirts and Swimming Shorts that you can bring to Tailor Jessica near the volleyball court at Beacon Island in exchange for Event Costume Boxes (#1 or #2), which each contain a full-body summer suit costume. Two different boxes means two styles of summer suits! In addition to the classic summer suit, there is a newer alternate version for you to show off. As an added bonus, you automatically change into one of the summer suits when you start a volleyball game, and there is a chance that your summer suit will magically transform to the other version during the game! (Magical transformation sequence not included.) And don't forget to check out the Auro Shop where a fun-filled new item box called Summer Gacha is now available for 500 Auro each. It may contain a costume, headgear, cards, or a few other equipment items that range from uncommon to epic! If you're very lucky, you may even find a Custom Kaho! The contents from the old Summer Packs and Summer Crates have been added to Summer Gacha. You may still open Summer Packs/Crates and get items from their respective lists, but you only have until next summer to do so. For Summer 2024, we will replace any remaining Summer Packs/Crates with Summer Gachas. Next maintenance is on July 3, 2022! Event ends on September 4, 2022! New Staff!

Male hairstyle 21 no longer shows a line on the side, and the six costumes (Chick Hat, Love JellyRO, Dropping Dorasuke, Grim Reaper Protection, Whistle, Piamette Hood) now display the intended abbreviation of "C." in the item name. Sweet Memory Marriage has also been adjusted to last for the full hour as described and Bell Ribbon no longer removes Angelus status effect when unequipped. Additionally, we have made improvements to the Zeny to Auro and Kaho shops to ensure they close properly when the cancel button is clicked. There were several other bugs that we tried to tackle this month, but were having troubles replicating them. We are also excited to share that our team has been hard at work laying the groundwork for Player IDs.
