• The Monster Familiar system lets you team up with monsters to battle other monsters.
  
• Your familiars can help you fight almost anywhere.
  
• Since familiars are not pets, they cannot use pet equip items.

• Attacks and skills will be used less and less frequently as their vitality decreases.

• A Vitality Pearl will be filled with color and the color will drain as vitality decreases.
  
• It will turn into a lighter gray tone as the color drains.
  
• The vitality of other players familiars will be shown as gray and white Pearls.
  

Vitality Recovery

• One vitality point will be recovered every two seconds while a Familiar is dismissed.
  
• The recovery amount will be multiplied based on how many familiars you have accumulated (ex. two accumulated: two vitality points recovered every two seconds, three accumulated: three vitality points recovered every two seconds).
  
• It will take up to ten minutes for a familiar to fully recover its Vitality.
  

Familiar Abilities

• How monsters currently attack will determine how their familiar version will attack.
  
• A familiars attack accuracy will be based on the level difference between you and monsters youre fighting.

LF>Legend Patch on the 6 of December.

140 armor in gach. LOOOL

that last gachapon jackpot.... the super stormcasters? i've only seen one person snag it honestly. but this cape..... i'm going for it.

I'm the only one that feels scammed? well at least we have monster familiars (something is better than nothing), gachapon wheel looks nice, cannon shooters are coming on December 7, golden temple is lame but lets see if it still drop scrolls, and turkey event seems good.

12.06.2011

next mega patch is on 12.07.2011

so expect CS, MErcedes and DS all together and maybe also some KMS revamps (cygnus, adventurers and Hero revamps)

I'm guessing that whole GM Board thing was probably their way of testing the Echo Megaphone? Just a guess.

And =O Monkey Dolls? Cannon Shooter's on his way? <3

I want lvl 140 WEAPONS TOO PLZ

next mega patch is on 12.07.2011

so expect CS, MErcedes and DS all together and maybe also some KMS revamps (cygnus, adventurers and Hero revamps)
