Silkroad Online Forums

After getting a little tired of reading new topic on old questions I decided to gather up Frequently Asked Euro Questions and put them in one topic. For some of the answers and questions I used my own interpretation, hopefully it will make it easier for some of you. If anyone sees any mistakes please post. Thanks!

Q. Will Chinese and Euro character be on the same server?
A. Yes, Euro characters and Chinese will exist on the same servers. The servers will just be upgraded.

Q. Are we getting the 90 cap?
A. Not in this upcoming patch.

Note - Remember the cap will remain at 80, this goes for both Euro and Chinese characters.

Q. With the Euro expansion, will we be getting a new SRO_Client?
A. Yes, it has been confirmed by Joymax (7/4/2007) that there will be a new client. It is now available in the Data Bank on silkroadonline.net.

Q. When will Euro update come?
A. July 24, 2007.

Q. Will Chinese characters be able to cross onto the Europe area and how?
A. Yes, on the map the green arrows show caves that will cross from Taklamankan to the new European area and vise versa. The black circle is a town that you can teleport to and from Hotan.



Q. What level are the monsters in the European area?
A. Levels 1-40, if Europe characters wish to fight stronger monsters above level 40 they will have to go to Hotan and fight the normal 40+ monster that we already have.


Q.Why is it so much harder for a euro to kill a solo mob then a party mob?
A.


Q. Will we get all the updates mentioned on the silkroadonline.net site at the same time?
A. According to what Joymax is showing us we will get all those updates (Except for the Wings).

Q. Will European and Chinese character be able to be in the same guild?
A. Yes both Chinese and European character can be together in a guild.

Q. Can Chinese characters participate in European party systems?
A. Just like guilds, Europe and Chinese characters will be able to interact in the same party.

Q. So the new party system will be applied through the whole game, across races?
A. Yes.

Q. What does the highlighted green name represent in a party?
A. The highlighted person in green is the person you have selected, makes it easier to heal ppl. -Vandall

Q. I am a low level character and I have a hard time finding a calm (less crowded) place to grind, how will the Europe update impact me?
A. Europe will have it’s own low level area. In fact if you are a Chinese character you might actually see less people in your grind area the first few weeks of the Euro patch.

Q. Will I be able to equip a Golden Dragon Flag to my Euro character?
A. Yes, you should be able to. The flags have no race restrictions.

Q. Are we getting an Auction house?
A. No we are getting a stall network, which almost works like an auction house. When a person opens a stall they have the option of registering their stall in the stall network for the cost of 1% of the profit made in the stall. The stall network allows players who want to buy an item to look through the network and find the item they are looking for instead of going stall to stall. A character is still needed to keep a stall up.

Q. Will European and Chinese character be able to transfer gold between each other? Example if the characters are in game or on the same account
A. Yes.

Q. We are getting legend 1 and kSRO has legend 6 what do legend 2-5 have?
A.
That sums it up heh. iSRO legend 1 is the almost the equivalent of legend 1-5 in kSRO.


I tried to include people who answered question asked. I didn’t get everyone but these are some of the people who answered some questions or answered a pretty important question clearly.

tyvm GaS, but i have another question lol, the monster in euro are lv1-40. but the cave to cross is in taka :S??

EDIT: someone sticky this thread? i can see it being needed alot

Will we be getting that lvl 20 boss mob cerberus? O_o

Yup. But you can teleport to a town that I circled in the map from hotan. So there will be no need for you to go threw the cave.



The level 24 boss is painted across the iSRO site. So I see why not : P.

are we gonna have "elite giants" since appearantly a rogue can 91k without crit....

Yeah, it needs to be stickied.

Also, you don't cross through takla (You can, but you won't want to). Just use teleporter to go to Hotan.

Also, I believe we will be getting Kerberos, but not Captain Ivy.

Nice thread. Though I'd like to point out, for when you say "Will we be getting a new SRO_Client". The answer to that is no, unless I misunderstood the question.
It may look different, but we will not have to unintall isro or manually install something from the website. It will all be updated automatically.

Yes, i guess. And i suppose that by "elite" you mean party mobs. The more members in your party, the more of this mobs will spawn. I.e. if you have 2 members in you party, you'll only spawn one or 2 near you. But if the party has 5+ people, you'll start spawning a lot of normal party mobs, and champions. I guess that, with enough people you can start spawning giant party mobs. But uhh i have enough trouble with normal ones...

OMGGGGGGGGGGGG BIG QUESTION RIGHT HERE >>>>>>>

will euro chars have ice immunity?!?!?!?!, if not my 90% ice archer idea will become 100% reality.

Yes, they can get ice immunity.

Alchemy works for all.

Rogues and warriors if i remember correctly, have status reduce passives. But as far as i know, they are not a 100%. I think it will be like a fixed amount in the fire shield buff... instead of a %.

I'm open to ask any questions you need. Just pm me (better clear my inbox)

Yeah, when I said they could have ice immunity, I only meant warriors and rogues

Others can't reach a total of 100% immunity.

in csro at top teleport in karakoram. You can either teleport to mt roc area or central asia.

I guessing the central asia option will be availble. So those lvl 40-50 can go that way.

My first question regarding Euro. When you said that the mobs will be lvl 1-40, does this mean the level cap on this coming update is 40?

The monsters in the European area will be 1-40. After that players in the Europe area will have to go to the Hotan area, if they wish to fight stronger monsters.

I will explain it a bit better.

One more question! XD

Cant Chinese characters participate in European party systems?

Thanks.

Ahh
This was a question asked a few times before... Good one though.
Just like guilds, Europe and Chinese characters will be able to interact in the same party.

So the new party system will be applied through the whole game, across races.

I am not entirely sure, perhaps someone else can give a better explanation. =)

Yes.

Also, that one guy asked a question about euro party system.

There is actually a seperate "e" menu for euro characters. I'm not sure if it's exclusively for euro chars, because I never made a chinese char on ksro. But I believe it is.
They can still join normal "e" parties though.

Hopefully I didn't just confuse you, lol.

Thanks for the info!!

Anyone know if they will add a new server?

(came back to sro recently after quiting in beta)

Wow welcome back =)

No one knows for sure if Joymax will be adding a new server when they release Euro.

yes only lvl10+ mobs can have elite or party types
only lvl30+ mobs can have elite or party giant types (63k exp (1 gap) 8 ppl party once )

also dont try killing a euro crossbow in pvp since they have 35m range almost 2x the range of bow

i hope they will add a new server, but if they do i think it would only be crowded with euro characters

Dont worry, there will be lots of chinese bots on a new server -_-

Why chinese and not euro
(not saying botting is good but wondering)

stickied in GD

After level 10 it becomes nearly impossible for Euro characters to solo, so they need to party up. While Chinese characters can solo Euro characters can't.
