Fiesta Game News
Greetings Fiestans!
For this week, along with our regularly scheduled maintenance, we'll be updating two big features in the game. This will begin at 10:00PM PST with a planned completion of 12:00PM PST.
Item Enhancement Our Isya healers bring us exciting news of a recent discovery, it's the existence of a new stone that can be obtained a single way. Though the sacrifice may be high to some, the stones received in this process give your weapons the potential to be enhanced to +10.
To attempt this enhancement, it is required that you "Dismantle" a current enhanced item in order to receive a new type of stone called Karis stones. The Dismantle feature has been added to all Healer NPCs throughout Isya and from this system, you will receive an amount of stones based on the enhancement level of the item being dismantled. You will receive a given number of stones from various enhanced items, with more being created from higher level items and enchantments. The system will indicate how many stones you will be receiving before you decide to dismantle the item.
After you confirm the item "dismantle", the item WILL BE DESTROYED. These stones will be used in place of the stones currently used in item enhancement and will retain the same chance percentage. All stones received are identical and they will enhance only weapons that are level 3 and above.
Premium stones can still be used when enhancing and currently, weapons (not including shields) are the only items that will be available for enhancement to +10.
Good luck!
Guild Tournament [Beta] After having received feedback from our users, we're continually making changes to improve the current guild tournament system still in beta. The changes for this week are as follows:
(
On the NEXT patch, this change will be implemented: 16 teams will be randomly picked to compete, however, guilds that did NOT get picked will receive their registration fee back.)
- Registration fee is still 1 gold.
- The 8 losing guilds from the first tier (first tier = 16 guilds) will receive 500 silver as a consolation prize.
- The 4 losing guilds from the quarter finals (quarter finals = 8 guilds) will receive 1 gold as consolation prize.
- The 2 guilds from the semi finals (semi finals = 4 guilds) will receive 2 gold + 20% of the total registration fee.
- The losing guild (2nd place) from the finals will receive 4 gold + 30% of the total registration fee.
- The winning guild of the finals will receive 10 gold + 50% of the total registration fee.
One additional thing to note with the new systems is that gold will no longer be absorbed into the system, as it will now essentially pay out even more gold than what was received from the guilds registering.
Events The fun, online, Date-a-GM event is now live! Take this rare opportunity at a chance to hang out 1 on 1 with either Nekopon or Tokara in-game! You can access details and applications in the forums

Miscellaneous The Archer skill, Multi Blood Shot, has now been changed to a non-moving skill.
There were a few text issues in the Crystal Castle that have now been fixed.
That's all for today, see you online!
