I can't believe it. Has it really been this long... Year after year always rewinding where we've gone... Oh hey, Jellybeans! Didn't see you there. It's summer again, and that means playing Volleyball, collecting Summer Suits, and saving your Summer Festival Coins! We're still working on fixing up the place as time allows. This month boasts a fix for potential Leviathan overpopulation as well as actually fixing the Auro Board quest reset issue for real real* this time. And don't worry, beans. When we say "One More Summer" we mean one just like many others. Hopefully, in the future we will be able to bring you some new content to cure the summertime blues! Sunshine and Rainbows Ranked Volleyball A couple years ago we made some gameplay improvements and a new scoring system. You may notice that the ball moves quicker and farther than classic volleyball. Both teams start with 250 points and various actions in the game will transfer some of your points to the opposite team, and vice versa. When a team runs out of points, they have lost and the game is over. Always try your best because now your wins and losses are tracked using an Elo-like system. Everyone starts out at 1000 and the number will go up or down depending on your performance. Besides starting a match and learning more about the game, you can check your "rank" with the fabulous-looking Info Guy (cmd_fild07 256, 107). We hope everyone hits the court frequently and enjoys the competition. No prizes yet, but any feedback is appreciated! Summer Suits Aloha Shirts and Swimming Shorts will drop from various monsters. Bring these parts to Tailor Jessica near the volleyball court in Beacon Island in exchange for Event Costume Boxes (#1 or #2). These boxes contain two different styles of a full-body summer suit costume. You may end up with more than you will use, but hang onto these boxes because they can be exchanged for Summer Festival Coins at the Carnival in August! Summer Festival Coins For now, this currency is only obtainable by attending GM-hosted live events, exchanging 1 Jellybean for 10 coins, or getting one from a Jellyblob at a very low chance. They will be easier to obtain in August, but now's your chance to get a head start and save some Zeny later! Summer Gacha It's back to tempt you out of your hard earned Auro this summer! We removed a few of the costumes that have already saturated the market and added a few items that are extremely rare. If your luck is OVER 9000 you might manage to snag a top headgear costume that has only been available during special events! If costumes aren't your thing, there is a small chance of getting one of several high end equipment items. But Does It Have Kahos??? you ask. Technically no, but I think you will like your options! New Costume Since we try to keep our featured costumes on a 3-year rotation cycle to keep repeats from popping up too often, we had run out of rainbow colored costumes to feature this month, so I costume-ified the Rainbow Scarf. You may find it in the Jellyblob and Summer Gacha as well as the Auro Shop. Enjoy! Next maintenance is on July 6th @ 4 PM CDT (Server Time) Summer events end on September 7th Monthly Updates Featured Auro Shop Costumes Featured Jellybean Rewards Additional Notes Fixed spawning issues with Leviathan. Fixed issue with Auro board quests left in quest log after reset. * C. Rainbow Scarf added. 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. * There might be some edge cases where the fix won't work on pre-existing states. But it shouldn't be an issue going forward. If you find the fix not working for you, please contact staff, we'll have to manually remove the quest variables from your account and characters. Don't forget to patch! How are we doing? Give us feedback! If something isn't working correctly, please submit a bug report.

We hope you all enjoyed the 10th Anniversary party we threw in Kathis's honor last month! After that whirlwind of live events, boxes, and special surprises, expect this month to be a bit more chill. We'll be focusing more on working through the long list of bugs... and summer is not too far away. One thing we fixed this month was the auro board quest reset NPC (Marsha). If you have any auro quests lingering in your quest log after a previous reset, give it another try and those quests should be properly cleared. Other than that, we decided to keep Kathis's Dedication Statue around indefinitely! The statue may be moving to a new location soon, but for now it is still located in Prontera (185, 215). Leaving a message has been disabled, but the buff is still available. Speaking of messages, read on to see the thank you notes that players left at the statue over the past couple of weeks! Next maintenance is on June 1st @ 4 PM (Server Time)! Overflowing with Gratitude We received so many messages for Kathis that we couldn't include them all, but below is listed a large sample of unique notes. You rock, Jellybeans! Monthly Updates Featured Auro Shop Costumes Featured Jellybean Rewards Additional Notes The auro board quest reset NPC now clears all relevant quests properly. Leaving a message at the Dedication Statue has been disabled. 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. Don't forget to patch! How are we doing? Give us feedback!

Jellybeans, this is going to be a month to remember! We are celebrating Kathis's 10th Staff Anniversary, and there will be some GM-hosted Endless Tower/Cellar runs, a special box of Kathis-inspired goodies, and perhaps a wholesome surprise a bit later. Of course we have still been busy with fixing bugs and making improvements. You will find that elemental Barrier Charms actually give you some elemental resistance now, and an NPC involved with getting you access to Scaraba Dungeon has been informed that the max level here is actually just 99. Also we hope you will check out the new channels we added to our Discord server. Thank You, Kathis! Congratulations to our amazing server owner who works in mysterious ways, and knows how to put on a good show. He was hired as a Developer 10 years ago, and server ownership was bestowed upon him just a little more than 2 years later. He is one of the most innovative coders and creative thinkers I have ever had the pleasure of working with. All of us on the staff have the utmost confidence that Kathis will keep JellyRO running long into the future. But to truly understand the significance of the milestone Kathis has reached, you have to look into the past. JellyRO is celebrating it's 10th year since its grand reopening. If you look back at our whole 20+ year history through 7 different owners (and 5 different names), you will see the anomaly that is an 8-year server owner. A good leader doesn't try to do everything alone, even if they technically can. They delegate tasks that are well suited to others and/or teach those who show potential. Kathis has developed a great team of people who continue to improve their skills through training and practice, and are encouraged to explore new ways to apply their talents. Our staff roster has only become stronger and more stable the longer that Kathis has been captain of the ship. Just in the past few years we celebrated a record number of milestone staff anniversaries. I think most of the staff will say they stay because they love JellyRO and being a part of the crew that shapes its future, but I think they also look at their leader and put their faith in his years of devotion to the server. We know he's not going anywhere. We believe in Kathis, and if you do too, we encourage you to show him your appreciation this month, whether that's in words or actions. Also we hope you enjoy the freshly stocked Staff Anniversary Box in the Auro Shop for 250 auro! Stay tuned for a new addition to the game that was made in honor Kathis, which will be added in the next week or so. And watch the calendar for some special events to be added soon! Event ends on May 4, 2026 @ 6 PM (Server Time) New Discord Channels We know the forums don't get the traffic they used to so we're trying to adapt and give players more options. Here's a quick guide to the channels and forums recently added to our Discord server. marketplace: A forum-style channel to buy, sell, and trade your JellyRO items. lfg: Otherwise known as "Looking For Group". A forum to recruit players or find a group to join for various party-oriented game activities. what-are-you-listening-to: A text chat channel to share songs you enjoy and chat about music. It's also worth mentioning that now we have 3 public voice chat channels that allow voice activation, while 2 still require push-to-talk. This has been requested many times so we decided to let players choose which kind of voice chat is best for their group. Monthly Updates Additional Notes Fixed the scripts for the volt, flame, aqua, and stone barrier charm accessories so they reduce the element by 10%. NPC Kalipo in the Scaraba Dungeon entrance questline has been edited to check for level 99 and not 100 and higher. Added a new NPC sprite that will be revealed later this month. 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.

We hope you all enjoyed the Lunar New Year event with Zhurong, the amazing equipment-refining horse! Before he left to continue his quest to fortify those who fight against evil, he wished us luck in our battles ahead. With so many more upgraded armors and weapons, the odds are sure to be in our favor. Share your upgrading triumphs with us in the comments below. Any +10’s out there? As we move on from the Lunar festivities, it’s time to get down to business and fix stuff. This month we have a fix for the Imperial Guard item so it can actually be used by mortals (specifically, Crusaders and Paladins). You can try to obtain this shield from Rake Scaraba Eggs in the Scaraba dungeon (dic_dun02). We plan to have more updates next month that may include improvements to minigames, other item fixes, getting missing images in place on the database searches and forums, and... this already sounds like a lot. Also, if you’ve noticed the main website throwing errors and generally being slow, you’re not alone. We’ll work on making it more consistently functional for everyone. One more thing! A quick shout out to those celebrating one my favorite holidays, St. Patrick’s Day, later this month (March 17th)! While there’s no event, you can be festive with green headgear and/or dyes! If you’re lacking a green hat, the C. St Patrick’s Hat is in the item shop this month. Or if green isn’t your thing, perhaps the C. Pink Clover would be the perfect accent to your outfit. Until next time, have fun and thanks for keeping Jelly jiggling! Next maintenance is on April 6th @ 8 PM (Server Time)! Monthly Updates Additional Notes Autoloot has been disabled... for now. Job and level requirements to equip Imperial Guard (ID: 2153) have been fixed. 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. Don't forget to patch! How are we doing? Give us feedback!

It's finally February, Jellybeans! To show our love and appreciation for our players, we enabled autoloot to ease the grind of preparing for the return of a special limited time event. The Lunar New Year refiner NPC was a big hit last year so we will bring it back with a fresh coat of paint. I know we said we would not be focusing on events this year, but it was a quick and easy update. It's the least we could do since we spent most of last month combing through so many bugs and ideas, and it is difficult to prioritize when there is so much work to be done and so much of it is important. A big thank you to all the players who reported bugs and made thoughtful suggestions. With all of you, we have many more eyes to spot where improvements could be made. Hopefully, we will have some fixes to share with you next month. Refined in Fire Zhurong, a fiery stallion with magical smithing abilities, is coming to Yuno (/navi yuno 157/167) on February 16th! Legend has it that he taught the ancient dwarves a thing or two. As a special treat while we celebrate Lunar New Year, he will refine your equipment with no risk of destroying the item or any cards and enchantments it contains. If the refinement fails, only the upgrade levels from refining will be lost, leaving the item effectively at +0. But you can try again as many times as your resources allow! Good luck! UPDATE A new patch was released early on February 16th. You will need to patch before you login for the event. Event starts on February 16th at 10 AM and ends on March 2nd at 4 PM (CST) (Check forum calendar or Discord to see event schedule in your local time.) Next maintenance is on March 2, 2026 Monthly Updates Additional Notes Enabled autoloot commands. (See details here.) Removed a testing NPC that was too close to the Draco event control NPC in GM land. (Hopefully fewer misclicks now.) 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. Don't forget to patch! How are we doing?

Happy New Year, Jellybeans! We hope you enjoyed the Christmas event, as well as all the other events we shared with you over the past year. This month we mark the 10th Anniversary since we became JellyRO! Our server has a long history of different owners and names, and now we have managed to spend nearly half of it without changing our name again. But seriously, it is remarkable that we are still here and have more or less remained stable, if nothing else. This year in April we will also be celebrating Kathis' 10th Staff Anniversary! 2026 is shaping up to be a big year for us, but the way we celebrate may look a bit different than you would expect. Read on to learn more! Permanent Development If you have been here a while, you probably have a pretty good idea what to expect from each season since we tend to stick to the tried and true event mini games that received good feedback in past years. The truth is we would love to bring you fresh and exciting events on a regular basis, but competition from other games is making us reconsider the ways that we invest our time. Our focus this year will be on fixing bugs and making improvements to the game. That means we we are not planning any major seasonal events this year. If we find ourselves with spare time, we will try to throw in a bit of festivity, but that is not where you will find new content. We would rather add content that can be enjoyed whenever you want to play, than plan big events that may be entertaining, but temporary. It will take a lot of hard work, probably more than we've been putting in recently, but we have a good feeling that it will be worth it. In the meantime, we will need your help to find and report (or bump, if previously reported) any bugs and issues that need our attention. We prefer if you tell us about the bugs you find on the forum's Bug Tracker so we can try to keep things organized. If you haven't found any bugs, the best way to go about it is just keep playing normally... or perhaps a bit abnormally (try doing something different). Now is a good time to use that stash of goodies you have earned from past events! Next maintenance is on February 2, 2026! Monthly Updates Additional Notes Disabled autoloot commands. Removed leftover Christmas Presents. Disabled Christmas event scripts. Christmas Presents are no longer obtainable from fishing. Restored Prontera to normal. Disabled snow on maps that normally do not have snow. 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. Don't forget to patch! How are we doing? Give us feedback! If something isn't working correctly, please submit a bug report.
