A small letter to my players is posted about my upcoming reset/update @ Balls Of Steel 8.60 - Latest News The server will be resetting on Thursday, March 22nd, 2012 The time hasn't been announced yet.

I will be completely redoing this advertisement thread tomorrow.

Stay Tuned!

Hopefully players will be willing to give your server another chance because it is a well made server, much better then most of the real map servers out there. I'd suggest a 2x exp event for the first week the servers open or something like that to attract more players to the opening.

 

[Phantom22]

A little update, Have decided after many resets and different configurations I will be going with a low exp scenario with this reset. Given there is a very intricate task system that constantly rewards exp, speed bonus exp and random exp tokens I do feel normal boosts to level 200 really aren't necessary and most likely hurt the server and it has shown after a month or so time the server is basically at endgame and nobody really had time to appreciate any of the stuff it was designed around, early and mid level content.
With this reset I want to promote longevity and a greater distance before another reset, if there even needs to be another.
With this it may be a single xp stage we will see.

if anyone has an opinion feel free to state it here.

Game Mechanics
Ammo, runes and potions are now all limited, you must ether create runes or purchase them from npcs. This also means you must ether create ammo using your paladin spells or purchase your ammo from normal vendors around tibia.

Server Side
NPC's will never sell your gear you are wearing again, you are all safe from this bug. Also there have been many modifications and source edits that have made this server incredibly stable and efficient with its resources, this will promote longer up-times and smoother gameplay regardless of the amount of players that are online.

Item Modification System
The amount of health and or mana you can receive from jewel cases has been reduced from 100 hp to 50 max per slot to reduce overpoweredness of modified items.

New Spawns
In Thais you will find 2 new teleports that lead to public hunting grounds for all players regardless of VIP status.

Solusek
This is comprised of mostly dragons and dragon lords it is a fiery pit filled to the brim with terror pain geared towards dragon and dragon lord tasks and anybody needing a convenient spot to catch some levels.

Forgotten Keep
This is an abandoned fortress off the coast of Darashia it once housed King Tibanus himself, but the fortress was soon forgotten when Thais had been settled and now has become overrun with War Golems, Giant Spiders, Soul Eaters and some say the basement is haunted but that will be up to you to find out!

Private Spawn
The effectiveness of private spawns has been adjusted and the price has been increased. If later there is an increased usage of private spawns beyond the limits of the current capacity than the option to purchase may be disabled.

Donor Shop
I have completely redesigned the the premium points shop, it is now in a very clean tabbed style with a new set of items for everyone to enjoy, this should making finding the item you need alot easier.
Furthermore the items have been renamed and modified.
The mage ring has been finally adjusted and made mage only, also there has been a few new items added to the roster which include donor boots and a melee ring.
You can now clear your frags and remove your red/black skull via the shop aswell.

The Website
The website has undergone a slight revamp, I have upgraded the theme with an improved tibia logo and a totally new who is online, this was done because I was tired of the drab look of the classic 8.54 era styling of the website.

Task Master
The task master has been changed, the rewarded experience has been reduced on about 70% of the tasks by as little as 10% to as much as 45% on select tasks, this was done to slow down the leveling and let people enjoy the PVE content on the server and preserve a mid to low level average for pvpers.
