MAG begins!

Also, for the duration of MAG, Clyez City will be prettied up with decorations specifically for the event.

LOL, so it is only that they haven't done all PA update yet, so they just put the "half" version of the update. and still remain the PA level boost -.-

EDIT: may I link this topic in official forum?

Well its nice to see we at least got part of the PA stuff http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpb...les/anime1.gif (Yay Lasers)

Well, everyone who planned on spamming the un-nerfed Chikki through MAG is in for a rude awakening http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpb...icon_wacko.gif

What I find odd though is that to my knowledge, we weren't aware of receiving Lv20 jobs on our version of the game until today- but ST still couldn't implement an update that was originally schedules for a few weeks ago? Strange.

My Fortegunner's jumping with joy though http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpb...s/icon_lol.gif

Thanks for the heads up. I can't wait to spam lasers more.

sega saved themselves a little with being able to put out part of the pa adjustments and increasing level cap. I bet they only decided to raise level cap because they know how pissed we are.

Agreed...

While this can't silent players from complaining about the delayed AP adjustments, this update is pretty nice. Too bad I'd have to miss the first week of it. ;]
